I have a back fat roll that is the worst. I hate it. However, I've finally come to the conclusion that it is just part of how my body is put together. I have seen some super skinny chicks, like, an example would be Cheryl Burke from Dancing with the Stars, who don't have back rolls, but do have a tuck at their waist in the…

What is this magical stuff, and why is it not in my mouth right now??!

I freaking love peanut butter. I love eating it plain, I love eating it on top of fruits, on veggies, on carbs... I like pairing it with vegetable soup, and with cheddar cheese.... I love eating ice cream with peanut butter in it, or just peanut butter flavored ice cream. I love peanut butter frostings and peanut butter…

OMG Talenti................ SO DELICIOUS

Let's be friends! This is a GREAT fitness tool if you are motivated and stick with the suggestions for calorie intake. I would recommend going through the whole set-up thing and putting in your stats so it lets you know how much you should eat every day to lose a pound a week, or whatever you choose, and then log all of…

You have done so well!!! What an inspiration!

Ummmmm, I know many people who are a lot bigger than a 6/8 that shop at WHBM. I can't believe someone would say that. Like the person above said, How Rude!!!

Best thing in terms of health?? The spinach on my Subway sub. Best thing in terms of yummy? The giardinara hot pepper mix on my Subway sub.

If you freeze banana chunks (from 2 - 3 bananas), then put them in a food processor/blender with a tbsp or 2 of peanut butter, it makes banana ice cream. Process/blend until smooth. If you haven't tried this before, totally do it. It is DELICIOUS, has the consistency of like a soft serve ice cream, and is just made out of…

I have had similar difficulties with my regular old FitBit Flex. It doesn't do anything with HR, but because the extra movement it tracks throughout the day allows you more calories than you would normally have under MFP's system, I do eat more which has slowed my progress. Technically it should be working closer to one's…

I think you'll have no trouble at all with the 5K in a couple weeks. You probably could just use a rest day or two... I am an amateur runner, and I find that if I take 2 days off, I have a better run. So, I like to get 2 days of rest before running in a formal 5K. As someone else said, you've done it before (recently!!!)…

F*** yeah I have cake on my birthday!!!

Ok, this is making me hungry for some delicious fish. These recipes all sound so yummy!

I am very susceptible to wanting foods that I see on TV. Every time I watch "Friends" I want NY style pizza. And I live in the Midwest! And you cannot get NY style pizza here! I don't even really know what NY style pizza tastes like, but I know it has giant triangles of pizza, which is pretty much non-existent in…

Damn it, now I want pizza.

I love to fly and I'm not scared of it, but no one likes turbulence........ that *kitten*'s unnerving. One thing someone told me once that always helps me is, think of the turbulence bumps as waves in the ocean. Flying a plane is very similar to driving a boat.... you're floating around and subject to the matter you're in…

I agree with the desk sitting. For me, it was an Egg White Delight breakfast sandwich from McDonalds.

I tell him. Whatevs. I'm embarrassed, but the man loves me and my crazy, crazy dog, so I figure it won't scare him off. It's also embarrassing because I weigh about the same as him, if not 5 to 10 lbs more at times. Oh well. We still look cute together! :smile:

I like coffee and tea, and usually I drink them because I'm trying to avoid consuming something else that has calories. So, usually I enjoy them on their own. Also, I drink my tea and coffee black with no sugar, but I can enjoy sweet tea and vanilla lattes with the best of them. Those are usually special treats for me.

Hey Chicago! I live out in the suburbs in Homer Glen, IL. Let's be friends!

Wow, impressive! That takes firm dedication.

Me! I'm getting married 5/30/15 and hoping to lose about 15-20 lbs by then! Would like most of that to come off in the next two months so that my dress fittings aren't all screwed up. :-) Good luck with your goals! We can do it! Here's to beautiful brides!

I would also add that dry shampoo is sort of helpful for me when I first put it on, but in the long run throughout the day, I don't really like the results. Doesn't work for my texture of hair (a lot of fine, silky straight hair).

I rinse, condition, and blow dry my hair every day, and I add shampoo to that routine every other day. I find that it does not look dirty after rinsing and conditioning..... I think adding the conditioner helps take out some of the extra oils when my hair is dirty (although, I'm probably just making that up). My hair…

Nuts, chips, pretzels, tuna salad to-go packs, popcorn, peanut butter, dried fruit, applesauce cups, soup, fruit cups

This post title could easily be misread as "crabs are the enemy", which is hilarious. Just throwin' that out there.

I need to focus on the same thing. A couple years ago when I was doing really well, I just had to tell myself, "oh, that looks really good but I can't have it." I had to look at that stuff like I had a medical condition, like celiac or diabetes. Nope, I can't. I need to get myself back to that place and walk away from all…

Can we also talk about the cappuccino flavored Lays potato chips??!?!?

I agree with this person. Tapas is just plain delicious!!! Order everything that sounds yumtastic and enjoy yourself. If I were going out for tapas, I'd make sure I worked out beforehand, and then I would have myself a grand ole' time. Have some sangria too, while you're at it... ;-)

That menu is impressively tiny. I don't know about that place........ I agree with the previous post... if it sucks, your friend is fired from picking!! ;-) ;-) I would get the fried chicken and pick off all the skin and fried parts and just eat the chicken itself, and only have some of it.
