  • I'm no pro. But before me joining MFP, I've always been sugar person. Everything I ate had bad sugars in it. So I have doubled up on my protein and fiber intake. That really has made my body stop craving and me stop eating foods that are not good for me. Like for instance, I don't eat any more white bread, just wheat. I've…
  • Great story! Good job! Keep up the good work and + attitude!!
  • Same here! You can do it! This is such an awesome way to make you realize how many calories are in food, etc. I'm so proud of myself. I've been on this just since May 15, 2011. I have lost 15 pounds and I'm not sure on the inches, I'd have to look. The site is so much easier to record food intake and exercise than writing…
  • This recipe sounds delicious! Thanks so much for sharing!!
  • U r doing great!!!! Please, please do not get discouraged. I got discouraged a couple of times as well. Keep a positive outlook. I have lost 12 lbs in 9 weeks all while doing MFP. Just tell youself "YOU CAN AND YOU WILL DO IT!!"
  • I'm not an expert, but I was in the same boat and just said had enough! I have doubled up on my daily fiber/protein/water intake. It was made me not so wanna go through the line @ Wal Mart and buy a bag of M/Ms to eat on the way home just for the heck of it whether I was hungry or not.

  • U r so right schlejul! This system allows us to journal so easy and makes us so much more aware of the caloric intake that we take in. It makes you stop and think, "Is this worth it?" For example, on vacation last week, I had a Sprite. The 1st soda (not a big soda drinker any way.) in 2 months. I thought it would taste…
  • I have bought a box of Kellogg's All Bran Buds. I eat them as my snacks. They are full of fiber. Sometimes I even throw about 1/3 cup of fresh blueberries in w/them.
  • My doctor prescribed Bentyl for me. It works great. I'll take 1 before I eat items such as salads (especially @ a restaurant) or I'll even maybe take 2 sometimes before I eat if I know it's gonna be something greasy.
  • O my! I love the All Bran Buds! Those are a great snack! I also will sometimes put some fresh blueberries in w/them!
  • I also like riding bikes whether it's outside or inside. I actually got a brand new outside bike for Mother's Day. That was awesome! However, speaking from experience with children, you would probably benefit from an exercise bike more. So that way you can ride a bike early in the a.m. or late @ p.m. when the kids are…
  • man, i'm not a pro or fitness trainer, just some ideas that have helped me recently. i've done my fitness pal for 6 weeks and 3 days and have lost 11.2 lbs by excercising and doing a 1200 calorie diet. I have toned up really good also. i've been walking on my treadmill anywhere from 30 min to 60 min. sometimes i raise up…

  • That's an awesome idea!!!
  • I try 2 eat a ton of fiber/protein to stop by cravings and hunger. What I have found that works good for me is a TON of water and for a snack is Kelloggs All Bran Buds(it's filled w/a ton of fiber and it's good for a change to try something different) 1/3 cup mixed with 1/4 cup of fresh blueberries. It doesn't require any…
  • I pray. I thank the Good Lord for allowing me to wake up, take a nice fresh breath of air, and thank HIM for allowing me to have what it takes to do my exercising!!!
  • Good luck Betty! This is a very user friendly site. I love it. I've been on it for 6 weeks tomorrow. I'm not bragging but doing really well keeping up logging!!

  • I love this web site. I'm on a 1200 calorie diet. It'll be 6 weeks tomorrow and so far I've lost 8 lbs. I'm sticking to it as good as I can. I usually have a splurge day 1 day through the week. Other than that I am able to eat 1200 calories and exercise about 1 hr total daily. I jump rope for about 10 min, ride the…

  • All sounds good! For breakfast I had 1/3 cup of All Bran Buds and 1/4 cup of fresh blueberries. For lunch having 3 oz of deli shaved Sara Lee turkey on 100% whole wheat bread and a tsp of Hellman's mayo and a banana. A.M. snack will be 1/4 cup of Pineapple chunks. For supper, grilled chicken breast and 2 cups of Birdseye…
