I would guesstimate how much time you spent walking and yes I would log it. You are still up and moving, so yeah COUNT IT! :)

We are glad to have you! Good luck with meeting your goals and with resisting the temptations!!

Pumpkin is one of my FAVORITE flavors, so I will definitely try these! :happy:

I am ready and willing to help encourage you. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Hopefully you will find some support and love here to allow you to move forward on your journey.

Welcome, welcome. I hope you have great success here. Feel free to add me!

I have them all the time! I usually pop a bag in the microwave for my lunch a lot of the time since I am running around like a nut and its quick for me...I prefer fresh vegetables of course, but I am not sure if there is much harm or difference nutritionally between fresh and frozen...That information would have to come…

Good Luck! Sounds like you have an awesome trip lined up and a lot of reasons to celebrate! :happy:

Don't feel bad! I didn't go to the gym for almost a month! And I had some of the fast food too! (Taco Bell...BUT then it made me feel yucky so at least I am cured from that!) BUT I am back now and so are you and that is what matters!!!

I would say it like this....I try to make good and healthy choices as much as possible....but as we all know this is life and sometimes we can't always do what we would like to do...If I do eat something not so good for me or have a day that I am over I try to do better the next day and make better choices. I think I would…

Hello...Basically I can repeat everything everyone else said. This is a good site and Welcome to it! Feel free to add me as well if you like.

Looks good!! I almost licked the screen too!! ;)

I would try to guesstimate as best I could the calories and quick add...Otherwise, it sounds like a pain in the butt trying to break everything down...My mom is doing the cooking for my rehearsal dinner! (That one will not be low fat/low cal, my mother is a FAB southern cook...BUT its one meal so I am not bothered by that!…

I'll help you! :) Feel free to add me...I am determined to get off some "Before marriage" weight in time for my wedding next month!

I think the whole Soda is bad thing comes on behalf of those who are seeking to change their lifestyle and those who have health issues/concerns... I think if you personally like to consume soda, go ahead if its what you prefer, just keep in mind that soda is full of chemicals and sugars. For me personally, I have tried to…

Hello. Feel free to add me, I will be your friend! :) Try not to focus on the numbers so much and more on the health aspect of things...There are some days we will all go over (birthday, *cake= yum*, office party, or whatever) and you can't beat yourself up for that...Starving isn't helping your body either...I had to get…

You can add me if you like...I struggle too and being there in the trenches with others in a similar boat may help. I try to be honest even when I go over, but like you I feel like pretending it didn't happen. I try to exercise as much as I can...I had been off the wagon for a week or so, but I am back and have been to the…

def the Tomb Raider movies for me. Great action, great soundtracks!

ME! I have a goal to hopefully lose 20 pounds before my wedding in September!!! I am about halfway there! :) Good luck! You can add me if you'd like!

I too love cheese! I am trying to squeeze it in when I can and also prefer the "white" cheeses. I think swiss is the best option...(read that somewhere...) :)

Friend...if you really want to know deep down what I think...(I have been planning my wedding for over a year now and it has been driving me nuts..) If you both love each other and peace of mind...ELOPE!!! My fiance and I too struggled about the distance his family would travel if I got married in my home state...I…

I actually noticed in my clothes before the scale...about 2 weeks in I would say...I have been on here since May 1. I had lost 7 pounds, but I think I gained one back....:( I am hoping to have lost at least 10 to 15 by September...SO if I stay on track and stop sabotaging myself (like with Mexican food, (but it soo…

I am 31...don't feel much different than I did at 21...only I drink less and have more bills to pay! I have found some grays though...:( other than that...I'm good!

well, I guess this is a good story to remember next time you think you aren't just fine the way you are...We are made the way we are for a reason....

Aww, I am so close...! I too am a Mass-hole...I need a buddy too...maybe I need to move!

I have a big issue with the Toyota commercials where the kid in the car is basically like "If your parent's can't afford a new car, then you aren't cool". I don't like the fact that they are asking kids to be materialistic. Listen, my parents drove all kinds of embarassing cars, but they got us from A to B, they weren't…

I know right.

I don't have any magic... But, I think that you are like most women and sometimes little things hurt a lot more than guys think. I once told my fiance to let me know if I was gaining a lot of weight or was I hate to say it "fat" well, he took me at that and one day he told me that I was gaining weight...I was furious! But,…

I am not going to lie....my first few days were frustrating...I found a couple of cool people on here that really made me put it into perspective and not want to give up...Here I am a little over a month later and 7 pounds lighter! Its not much, but its a start. Your body, mind and spirit will all kick in and get into the…

I asked a very similar question the other day. Most said, YES EAT, others said, don't force yourself, don't eat if you aren't hungry...I was consuming around 900 with my day. I will stick with what other folks said and say, do what works for your body. If you can live off 500 and function and lose weight, why not. But…
