I'm surprised how often I go over my sodium. Since I'm not one to salt my food with two exceptions : homegrown tomatoes and when I make gravy ( which I haven't made since starting MFP) . Husband brought sausage for me to make gravy this weekend. :( I haven't had sausage either.

Great work!

I make whole wheat pita pizzas. I usually make mine veggie, and the rest of the family's I add pepperoni. Pitas= 150 cals pizza sauce= 25 cals cheese= 70 to 80 cals Made these stuffed green peppers Mexican style around 244 calories each. My daughter even ate the filling but not the green pepper. Used the veggie crumbles to…

Congrats!

A few.... #1) I mentioned to my 16 yr. old (introverted) son the other day I had lost another 2 lbs. He said "Mom you need to slow down before you are a stick" That really made my day. #2) Vanity here....I can't stop looking at my muscle tone lately. Even my husband mentioned how toned my arms were looking recently. #3) I…

Nice job!

Bump... Just because I find it interesting. :)

I treated myself to a taco salad after losing around 15 lbs. Yum. May have to go back again soon. Recently saw a tip about splitting orders with someone else adding veggies on the side. Mainly enjoy.

Wow look at them guns! Nice job I have PCOS too. Got my sugar under control. Now I'm working on the cholesterol also. Any tips would be you care to pass along would be greatly appreciated.

I would eat at least your BMR. I know MFP reduced my intake to 1420 a couple weeks ago and I got moody with less energy. Looked up my BMR said 1570. So I just left my settings at sedentary but said I'd exercise at least 30 minutes 5x a week. Now I'm back to 1620's. Good luck.

Wow fantastic job! You are a true survivor. Thank you for sharing.

Great job! Congrats!

Wow! You look fantastic! Congrats!

Everything looks pretty good. Personally I try to change it up. I get tired of eating the same old things. Some have better will power than I do though. I still have yet to eat ground turkey. LOL. I tried turkey pepperoni once ( not a fan). I eat a lot of baked chicken. Have you tried quinoa yet? I love it. Replaced white…

If your comfortable with your intake I wouldn't stress it. 1960 seems very reasonable. I know MFP dropped my calories to 1420 and my energy started lagging. Checked my BMR said 1570 range. So I adjusted my settings to 30 minutes 5 days a week of exercise to up my intake back to 1620. Of course I am female 5'7" with PCOS (…

Bump... Will need to be tested again myself in a few months.

Great boss! You've done great too!

Fantastic work!

Didn't know about the block button. Thanks for the info. :)-

My new favorite is a walmart jerk seasoning marinade. I also make a healthy version of marsala chicken even my 16 yr. old son likes. MccCormick? has some pretty good seasonings I sprinkle on and bake. I like the "Kicken chicken" and "Smokehouse maple".

MFP changed my settings a week ago. I just had to re-adjust my settings because I had no energy at the 1420 was below my BMR. Lost 2 lbs. this morning. I wouldn't adjust unless you change your settings. 1420 was sedentary no exercise. Now I'm sedentary with 5 days 30 minutes of exercise 1640.

That's great! I know I actually played with my 3 yr. old on the playground in the last couple months. When my son was that age there was no way. He's 16 now. Sad I couldn't do more with him when he was younger. Though glad they are going to have a healthier Mom. :) I bet your son loved it!

Wow Fantastic !

This morning had a 2 lb. loss after changing my settings to up my calorie intake ( they were too low at 1420). I'm officially half way to my goal now. Only 28 lbs. to a healthy BMI. Also managed to fit in my favorite too small shirt I had saved.

Wow that's fantastic! You look so much younger too.

Welcome to Onderland! :) Great job.

He needs to eat higher calories than that. I know I recently checked my BMR because I had lost a lot of my energy after MFP dropped my calories to 1420. I adjusted my settings now I'm back up to 1620. I'm a 5'7" woman. If he eats to little he's going to lose muscle.

He does have pretty eyes. My 16 yr. old son wouldn't admit to having seen "High School Musical" though. LOL

Bump... Thanks Esther for the info. I've been eating protein bars but noticed my energy has really gone down hill in the last 2 weeks so I'll be looking into using some.

That's awesome! I know vintage things tend to run so small. Also what a score for $40.00 !
