I have been riding the yo-yo of loose some / gain some for ... well... forever... and I've learned a 2 things: (1) if you think you can't do it, then you can't do it; negative thoughts cannot result in positive change (2) there are only 2 paths to follow; the road to weight loss and the road to weight gain - choose wisely…

As you know, I'm doing it for disney. I want to ride the rides without having to check if i'm under the weight restrictions. Disney is huge... i don't want to be the one holding the family back because i'm not in shape. But i'm also setting smaller goals for myself. I went skating with my daughter last weekend (and will go…

my opinion, sugar is sugar! Is a peach better for you than a chocolate bar? Yes! Are they both sources of sugar? Yes If you are someone who HAS to watch their sugar, then you have to watch all the sources of sugar. I am newly allergic to fructose which means no more fruit or sweet veggies for me, so I envy you your…

I'm a "breakfast skipper" but no more. don't skip! I read an article on how skipping breakfast keeps you at a slow metabolism for the whole day and actually makes you gain weight! If i can find the article i'll post a link, but it's what sumo wrestlers do to gain :( Once i read that i went out and bought some breakfast…

djkymba --> If sodium isn't a problem, then go ahead, have your pickle... for me - no more, no way... At least until i find the low sodium ones someone suggested. NA_Willie --> As far as the horseradish pickles, if you order them please post your findings :)

I am loving this thread!!! i recently won the 'worst gift ever" contest at work ; my hubby gave me some pretty crappy gifts when we were dating, but this one takes the cake: a huge gift bag... filled with lots of tissue.. finally a gift wrapped box... more tissue... a smaller gift wrapped box... more tissue and then... omg…

thanks guys! I'm so glad i found MFP :) i slightly miss my dairy, but fruit, oh fruit, where art thou :( the only dairy i ever ate was some cream in my coffee (sub: non dairy creamer powder), milk on my cereal (sub: soy milk) and a yoghurt now and then (sub: soy pudding) But how do i substitute that first bite of an apple?…

I have been here and done all this before (lost it all - gained it all back); the first time around i was on a plateau for what felt like forever... it's your body readjusting, but it can also be you (do not take this personnally)... i hit a plateau at 201 lbs, stayed there for 2.5 months... then a friend asked... "how…

Kick! Kick! Kick! If you've hurt your wrist, use your legs and do a few kicks. My sympathies for your hard times, but when i'm feeling like i can not do that workout, i do it and talk to myself while i do it... actually, sort of like a game, in a drill sergent sing-song i declare what i'm doing and why and try to make a…
