My goals are smaller: my weight comes off very slow now. 6 pounds would be a realistic goal and I also would like to be able to do 10 real pushups!

Yummy! I do the same thing...I save room for around 300-350 calories and sometimes I have CHOCOLATE!!

I work at a college, and students are always having loud, animated phone calls( usually on speaker) in the restroom. YUCK! Yes, even while on the toilet! First of all, it's rude to engage in loud personal phone calls in public, secondly it kind of violates my privacy...yeah, now my 'business' can be heard on their…

Average weight: 110 lbs (50 kg) Average height: 5 ft 10 in (1,78 meters) Average age: 21 years old Place of birth: Russia, Brazil, Holland... All have personal trainers and are required to work out daily if they are over 25

Some of it does depend on your age and metabolic state as well. I had 5 kids before the age of 26, gaining 80 pounds twice, then 40 pounds twice. Lost all the weight, with no lose skin either, was maybe a size 5 jr at that point. At 55, I am in menopause :) and lost 45 pounds. Now the lose skin is here to stay. I look…

seeking truth, finding God, loving, happy

Does sound yummy!

Not weird, but def annoying: lots of girls named Precious, Princess and Darling...

Thanks!:love:

bump for the recipe

Ditto to this! Been married 31 years to my best friend! We have been through it all, but still cant wait to come home at the end of the day to each other!

Sometimes loosing the weight is a good way to begin to control behaviors in our life. You can control what goes in your mouth, and you can take pride in that..:bigsmile: ...you are also in control now of your choices and behaviors when it comes to men! You and your daughter deserve the best :flowerforyou:

I know what you are feeling. When the compliments started, I thought-Geez, was I really that big? :noway: Then I heard "'you are thin enough"," if you lose any more weight you will look 'gaunt "', and "are you OK, you look so thin?" For a while it bothered me, but now I realize that most of these people mean well and I…

Ezekiel bread refers to a type of sandwich bread containing completely no flour. Its ingredients include four beans and four grains. The key ingredients include barley, wheat, millet, pinto beans, kidney beans, rye or spelt and lentils. This distinctive ingredient combination provides several health benefits to the body.…

Same rule goes for 'smashed up', and 'broken' foods. You know....broken pretzels, half a piece of bread, last chip crumbs in the bag...ZERO calories of course!

HAHA! I thought the topic said 'Diary' makes you fat!!

Sat on the floor 'under' the ironing board while my sister ironed; stood up and knocked the iron onto my leg (or so my sister said): resulting in a very painful HUGE 3rd degree iron shaped burn that scarred me for life! To this day, I make sure NO one is near me if I have to iron something :)

I am not an expert by any means, but: in viewing your diary I note that: You have 9 days in December where you didn't log at all or never finished logging. On about 6 other days it appears that you didn't log or eat lunch and all those days you have excess calories left over. And bananas are about the only fruit I can find…

She probably is indeed in a growing spurt. For my 2, 3, 4 and 5 year old grandchildren there are established mealtimes and healthy snacks only- available whenever they want them at these ages. Half the time they may not want the meat or bread or veggie at lunch, but half an hour later they are hungry. I do my best, but…

Hmmmm....maybe it's my age or my life or both, BUT I think I have done one of the stupidest things on here! While shopping at a store that attaches tall bars to there shopping carts- I repeatedly tried to exit the exit door and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working! Omg in front of a ton of Christmas shoppers too!…

I 100% agree with what all the other kind mfpers have said. But I wanted to add one thought: in the midst of crisis-big or little- I feel that my eating is one thing I have control over. When all is else is beyond my control- even crashing around me- I can quietly log my food and feel empowered and in control in some area…

This is so true! Even the Medifast ladies and the part time trainer at my job bring in decadent goodies during all the holidays...I don't see them actually eating them though.HMMMMM......

Mine is a twins story too :) . My last pregnancy was twins and I weighed 128 and gained 80 pounds. They were 7 lb 6 oz and 6lb 12 oz and were delivered at least 2 weeks early. My prego belly was huge when I carried them and took a while to go down. They were just a couple weeks old and in their twin stroller and a lady…

Weight loss and health are a journey, with many starts and stops. A few people voicing their opinions should not derail a person's weight loss! My advice, if you don't want other people's opinions: stay off the forums. Also when you do post: do not 'yell' ( Write in all CAPS) or tell others what they are doing wrong in…

Will try these soon :)
