I don't have kiddos, but it works best for me to eat dinner first, wait a bit, then work out. Just fits into my schedule better. I also work out at home, not the gym. Hope you can find what works best for you and your schedule! Good luck with MFP!!!!

Mine is Nacho Cheese Doritos!

Bump so I can follow you!! Great job and very motivational!! :smile:

Good Grief! I think the people in my office think I'm crazy now! These responses just cracked me up!! Just what I needed today! On another note, I mute the tv when I step on the scale! And I agree with telling it no on the fitness tips out of spite! :laugh:

Applesauce!

Welcome! This is a great community full of support! Good luck with everything and you can add me if you want :smile: My husband and I have been TTC for 3 years, and I figured it was probably time to try getting my weight under control!

Good luck your second time around! I hope you can stay with it. Feel free to add me also. I have 119 lbs to lose! I also started this about a year ago and left after a couple months. I am back now for my second time as well. :smile:

I bring my lunch to work everyday, so I log my Breakfast and Lunch while getting everything ready in the morning and snacks and dinner while preparing them!

Welcome! I have 123 lbs to lose. Good luck everyone with your journeys, and feel free to add me also. :smile:

I'm interested!!!!!

I did circuit training also until I got a Heart Rate Monitor!

I'm prepared for people not to like me on a daily basis....I'm an Assistant Manager at a Bank. I like it ok, but about to go back to school and get a degree for Accounting! Fun topic btw! Interesting responses!!!

I log it as Circuit Training, General also.

I just finished Water for Elephants, and I'm now reading The Fellowship of the Ring.. I bought a bookmark called "50 books to read before you die" and I'm starting on that! Has everything from Lord of the Rings, The Bible, Harry Potter and Jane Eyre to Diary of Anne Frank and To Kill A Mockingbird! I'm very excited to get…

I also love the idea of this group! Sounds fun!! I'm 6'3, and I'm now at 303... I hear those same things all day long! I'm 300lbs people! I need to lose weight even if you don't think I do!! Don't you just love being tall?!

Well this site is wonderful and so are the people! So much support and encouragement!! I hope you achieve your goals! I am also over 300..Not for long though!! Feel free to add me as a friend!

I am just over 300 now and doing 30DS. I love the workout, and I am also looking to do something else along side it. I would say give it a shot, and see. You can also modify the exercises if you can't do them until you get more comfortable/able to do them. Don't know if that helps any... but good luck!!

Thanks for the information and responses! I really appreciate it, and it's nice to see that I'm not the only one that thinks this way. But I also do understand that everyone's different!! :happy:

Hey! Welcome!! I'm 27 and no children yet, we are trying...That's one of the reasons I'm here! I am at 311 now, and trying to get to 200ish. Doctors sliding scale says at 6'3 I should weigh 180, we'll see about that! Glad that you are here, and good luck with everything! BTW, I have a kickboxing dvd that I LOVE!!! Feel…

I don't know of fthe top of my head, but you could always measure out the tablespoons and put them in a cup or spoon whatever your using to measure 1/3 cup until it's full?

BUMP! Great ideas!! Can't wait to try some!

BUMP for later!! Thanks for the ideas!

BUMP

That's awesome!! Great job!! Keep up the awesome work!! :happy:

Thanks for all the great ideas!! I really appreciate them! I think I am on my way to setting a few :wink:

Yep, had that happen to me also.. I also get the "You don't need to lose weight", "You look fine", and my fav! "You're just tall"...(6'3)

I played a year of college basketball before I didn't love the game anymore. So, yeah, I was a college athlete for a short while. Feel free to add me. I was recently thinking of playing again. I think I might now :happy:

"He's Mad." I think someone else had that also, so I will pick the second book: "You're lucky I didn't put the car in reverse and back over you three or four times."

This is my second week here, and I'm going to lose 100lbs! Feel free to add me!! Wish you luck!!:happy:

This is such a fun topic!! I played basketball ever since about Kindergarten and even for a year in college (had a scholarship to a Division 1 school). I wrote a poem about my Grandmother's passing in 9th grade, and it was published. I have been homeless (short amounts of time) twice in my life. I'm 6'3. :happy:
