Thanks ladies!

I have stopped carrying my money/cards into the office on days when I know I'm more vulnerable. The vending machine is just 40 steps away and it's a problem.

Smaller jeans and a lower bp prescription!

Sitting in my car in the bed bath beyond parking lot scrolling through MFP posts.

You are on the right track. Let fear motivate you, not paralyze you!

thank you everyone.

I don't know if this group is still alive, but I start tomorrow. How are you doing?

glad to have you here!

Hi mops89. I weigh myself every 10 days or so. If I weigh myself too often, I know it will be easy to get discouraged. On the topic of searching for other threads, I think the rude poster might have been suggesting that you use the search function at the top of the page. I tried it by putting in "weigh yourself" and got…

Agreed! Especially when my eyes are groggy in the morning.

I enjoy an egg with an English muffin and some fruit. We use soy butter.

Problems with veganyumyum.com? I've been trying to use her site for three days and it appears to be hacked. Anything I click on except the front page has X-rated junk on it. I sent her a tweet but haven't heard anything. Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm transitioning to vegan. Right now I'm at vegetarian with some egg and dairy, but I am moving away from those as I gain more kitchen skills. I just bought Isa Chandra's cook book, Isa Does It, and made the Glam Chowder this past weekend. Oh, boy, was it YUMMY! My husband and friends loved it, too. That was my first time…

Cheese and beans on toast? How about a salad with fresh veggies and some protein such as chicken, egg, or fish? Yes, you will get sick and feel weak eating like that.

How about string cheese? Quick and portable.

Actually, it's not the kitchen at home. It's junk food out on the way to work, on the way home, on the way anywhere. I should try putting my purse in the backseat when I'm on the go. Not a bad idea! Thank you for your post, kbsangel1986.

You are beautiful! Red is my favorite color. Is that your son? He is SO cute!!

about 80 pounds which will put me at 160 and a healthy BMI for my height.

I enjoy hot tea and some fruit or veggies and a TBS of hummus.

I will ad my "nope!" to the chorus. You can also do something more productive with the time you spend reading that junk. Stick to the basics!

You look wonderful!

Hi there! I am a big breakfast eater, but it doesn't have to be traditional breakfast foods. I sometimes eat hotdogs for breakfast. Do you have a favorite food that would be more appetizing to you in the morning? Or consider something calorie dense like peanut butter. One serving is just 2 TB.

Just wanted to say welcome! The nice thing about MFP is that it is as sustainable as you make it. It is not a "one-size-fits-all" diet. It is customizable based on your caloric needs, goals, and commitment. It is not a magic bullet, but rather a tool to help you succeed. Best wishes!

I have done keto very successfully with no ill effects. If you stick to the rules, you will lose weight.

Chart/Ticker how to: Go to My Home then click on Profile Where it shows your progress in red numbers there is an option just below to set up your ticker.

A veggie and cheese omelet with salad. Watermelon.

JT: hahahahaha!

Since you don't eat much in the way of fruit or veg, you are not getting the fiber that would help you feel full longer and make it easier to resist temptation. consider looking into the free app gym-pact.com and using the veggie pact. You set your own goal for the week and if you don't meet it, you are charged $10. If you…
