I make coffee at home using 4 tbsp sugarfree creamer and splenda, cause I like it very blonde in a 2cup mug. runs me 60cals. sugarfree also saves on carbs (which turn to fat) its an adjutments, but I after a week i didnt notice the difference. if you arent brewing your own, order black coffee with room for creamer so you…

thank you for sharing your story. truly inspiring for all. its reassuring to know 100lbs can be done in a year. this is my time and I will embrace it. Big congrats to you on an amazing transformation.

its a hard transition when you are so use to eating a certain way. even with the best intentions. i was going quite a bit as well. I believe everything is ok in moderation. just keep logging so you are staying true to yourself and get in extra water for the sodium.

sometimes I eat at my desk but than use my lunch break to take a walk. good win/win

a bowl / salad from chipotle wihout sourcream/guac is good. everything there is fresh. Healthymex grilled chicken tacos at rubios are 130cals each."street" or mini tacos from any taqueria would be about the same.

correction: under 500 cals

cheesecake factory has a great chicken bruschetta. grilled breast served on a bed of greens with bruschetta on top. it was a huge portion and under 300 cals.. the only challenge than is to resist the cheesecake. controlling the portion size on anything you choose should be fine. have fun with your hubby ;)

I love zumba wii. lets me get in 20 mins burst when I can't fit a whole class. I use this calculato to figure out hte burn. http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc

pom vodka with sprite zero is good. margaritas are my perfect go to.

definately NSV! Way to Go!!

give it some more time, you should see a drop soon. make sure your getting enought water. and remember muscle weigh more than fat so you should start seeing a loss in inches.

i started by just tracking, increasing water intack and walking. just get started. =)

great list. Bumping so I can read and re-read and re-read!! thanks for sharing

I have it too. really makes loosing weight a slow, slow process for me. but Im trying to stay mind over matter. Hubby and I have been TTC naturally for several years. now that Im 33 its time to get going. feel free to add me. we can support each other along this journey

grilled veggie or chicken fajitas, no sourcream. or try a salad with grilled chicken, use salsa for dressing. lots of water (with lemon) try to focus on the company not the food. portion control, if you must put half away right up front. i used to be embarrased by this but it makes it soo much easier to eat less and you…

Just had PB&B for dinner last night. gonna have to add some jelly next time. sounds delish =)

thx everyone. i took my frustrations out on the treadmill, got a quick burn and cleared my mind. so glad I made it through that "episode" feeling better about things today. its a new day and i know ill get thru these challenges im having right now

welcome... mfp is a great site for tracking and support. i can definately relate. i have tried, lost and regained rhe same lbs more times that I can count. on my way back down for the last time. feel free to add me, we can support each other ;)

i prefer digital and I track from the same single scale for my official weight. i never weigh the same from scale to scale home to dr, etc. I even have (2) of the same exact scale one in my bathroom and one in the guest bathroom, even those don't match up.

take a deep breathe and remind yourself why you began this journey. none of these snacks are worth it. Stay strong!

Dear PCOS, To put it simply, I hate you. You are a pain, you make me doubt myself and feel discourage. I work so hard to lose weight and you hold on to it with all your might. im tired of your games, giving false pregnancy hopes. watch your back cause my hate for you is pushing me to overcome dispite your attempt to hold…
