Wow! You don't even look like the same person! Amazing! What an inspiration you are! Congratulations!

My food diary is open to my friends, feel free to add me :)

I agree with all of your points! #2 is part of the reason I reached my highest weight to begin with. Eating for taste has been the hardest habit for me to break. I'm not sure that I've broken it completely, but I've made myself accountable now. I make sure to exercise enough to balance out my calories. If I go over my…

My week is going ok so far. I've lost 1.5 pounds, and haven't missed a day exercising & drinking my 9 glasses of water. I did go out with DH for lunch today, I had fish and salad. I should have had the garden salad instead of Geek, but I did pass on the fries so I feel I still made healthier choices than normal. Not sure…

Here's the link to the Laughing Cow recipe thread on here. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/206037-what-is-your-favorite-laughing-cow-cheese-recipe This is the thread that inspired me to buy some, and try out some recipes. I actually had a bagel with laughing cow (herb & garlic) for breakfast today :)

I actually tried two "new to me" recipes tonight. I just recently found the Laughing Cow thread here and went out to buy some last week. Tonight I tried cauliflower & laughing cow. 1 cup of steamed cauliflower 1 wedge Laughing Cow ( I used herb & garlic) Mashed together (pop in the microwave if the steamed cauliflower…

Good Monday Morning (or afternoon/evening depending where you live)! I hope everyone is ready for the new week! I know I am! :)

I have sent my partner lukimakamai a friends request. Thank you raquelphillips10 for organizing this added support idea. Best of luck to all Slytherin house! If any of you wish to add me, feel free to do so :).

I'll take part in the roommate idea as well. I don't really have any specific requests as to who I'm partnered up with, although someone who has their food/exercise diary open like I do would be nice, that way we can get food ideas from each other and give/receive tips etc. but if not that's ok too. All my stats are posted…

I'm at 190.0 today for a loss of 1.5 pounds this week! I've logged it on the chart. I lost my weight really early in the week and have been the same weight for the passed 4 days (I weigh in daily) so I should be due for a nice loss sometime early this week. I had a rather high calorie BBQ lunch yesterday, but made it up by…

I have a busy weekend planned, I want to get all my flowerbeds done, my garden prepped, my outdoor winter stuff put away & summer brought out, and I have to walk my hay field to look for any strings that may have fallen of the bales last year before the grass gets to high and covers them. If the weather doesn't cooperate I…

I'm doing pretty well this week. Water hasn't been an issue, exercise has been ok. I've been walking for at lease 20minutes everyday, not counting the extra little walks I add in. Like today I went out for lunch, and after we ate we walked from the restaurant to the store, then back again, instead of driving over. I don't…

I've noticed Laughing Cow cheeses in other peoples diaries, but have yet to buy some. After reading this thread, I've asked hubby to pick some up on his way home from work tomorrow. I can't wait to try it!

I agree. I've started to add a bit of jogging in with my walking the past few days. I normally do 5.5 laps a day, and have started jogging the .5 lap. Once I get used to that I'll jog a full one, then 1.5, then 2 etc.. If this doesn't work I'll try your suggestion with changing up my calories. Thanks for the tips!

I seem to be on a 2 pound Yo-Yo recently...I'm back and forth from 192-190 *sigh* I've done my exercise already this morning, but I plan on going back out for another mile if it stops raining tonight. I'm really wanting to break this yo-yo string and drop into the 180's. Fingers crossed this will be that week!

Hello fellow Slytherins! I look forward to getting to know you all over the next few months :) My favorite Slytherin is Severus Snape.

Could we have a thread for each house? That would make it not only easier for the heads of households but less confusing for the rest of us as well. Then maybe at the weekly weigh in's the HoH's could all post their teams progress and individual weigh loss for their members here into the main HP challenge thread? It would…

I chose a butterfly for my weight loss ticker and a caterpillar becoming a butterfly for my profile picture to represent me "shedding" this unhealthy over weight body. It represents me becoming the active & healthy person one the outside, that I feel is trapped on the inside.

OMG AMAZING!!! What an inspiration you are!!! Congratulations!!!

I'm actually still sipping on my Diet Pepsi from lunch as I read this :blushing: I think it's ok in moderation. I haven't had one in a while so decided I'd have one with my lunch today. I like to have a few cups of either tea or coffee, and to be honest I have a hard time adding anything else to drink into my day. I always…

Congratulations! You're doing fantastic!

Amazing!!! Good for you! :)

Hi Welcome! Request sent :)

I'm 5'1 and my goal weight is 135. That's a weight I used to feel very comfortable at. According to every chart I've found that weight still puts me in the 'over weight" category. I'm supposed to be between 97 and 132 to be considered a healthy weight. Maybe when I reach my goal I will want to drop to 125-130...not sure. I…

You guys look incredible!!!

I can talk/sing like Elmo

The Raccoon fear and....... it has to be the tattoo LMAO

Welcome to you both!!! I'm sure you two will absolutely love it here!
