I am currently obsessed with a Hawaiian Chicken Recipe I found on Pinterest. 1 Bag Frozen Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast 1 Can Pineapple Slices or Chunks 1 Bottle Barbeque Sauce You add all the ingredients together in a crockpot on low for 8 hours, or you can put in a casserole dish for 1 hour at 375. I put that on 1…

I too have noticed that! I have a few male friends who never really show discretion when pointing out beautiful to me. I kid you not, I was talking with one of my guy friends and he points out a lovely young lady who was standing in front of us...face turned away. He went on and on about how he wants someone like her! I…

I warm up/cool down at a 3.0 walk 3.5 and jog 5.5.Anything slower doesn't feel like I am "briskly walking" and jogging. But those definitions are different for everyone! I asked a trainer at my gym, and that is what he suggested. I know you've read it a million times, but it's really about adjusting the program to fit you.…

I am on week 2 day 2, and I am loving the program so far! I downloaded the free app on my iphone, and a voice prompts me when to start walking and when to start jogginhg! I have never been a runner! Literally. I used to skip gym class the days of our physical fit test days....I am still in the early stages but I feel…

I started at 217 pounds,( my absolute highest weight ever!) and lost about 30 pounds. After the holidays, finals, and surviving the Mayan apocalypse, I am sad to say I gained 15 pounds…

In the past I have completly kept my diets a secret. For some reason it was totally embarrassing! It's funny though, we keep a diet a secret, but the truth of the matter is, EVERYONE knows we are overweight! Why shouldn't they know we are trying to fix us and get healthy?!?!?! This time around and since joining MFP I have…

When I make sweet potato fries I peel the potato first, then cut into fry size. coat very lightly with EVOO, a little sprinkle of brown sugar and cinnamon. Bake for around 30-45 minutes (depending on personal prefrence, the shorter amount of time the crunchier the fries.) at 425 degrees. I have also heard of using honey…
