I didn't get that they were bashing it so much as saying you can't just drink a lot of water and expect to lose weight if you don't make any other changes.

I've been looking for a challenge to join!

Mine fall off while working out, I got a sweatband, totally unattractive, but keeps them from falling off my face! :)

You know what I believe helps me, filling up at breakfast, big time. I try to get in a lot of protein at breakfast, and lunch. My dinners are so late because of work and running around with my daughter, I avoid breads and rices, and eat a lean meat and fruits, veggies and a yogurt. I also found that since I added fresh…

Great comparison to that old annoying saying!

Absolutely beautiful!

I use GNC Total Lean™ Lean Protein Weight Control The regular price is 30, but I buy it when it is on sale on their website for 12-14$, I buy a few at a time so I can make it until they go on sale again, their shipping is pretty cheap too. It was recommended to me by my best friend, who is boxer/mma fighter, and she used…

Congrats on the weight loss! I really only shop at thrift shops and yard sales, so my clothes aren't too expensive. I do see what you mean about the suit though, much harder to find very nice suits at yard sales and thrift stores, but sometimes not.

Well, I just got a HRM monitor today, and I am buring a hell of a lot more calories than it calculated. Yay!

It depends on a lot of things, my poor friend is in the greatest shape of her life, but the muscle is dead in the C-section area because of her c-section, and she has loose skin there. don't think that is a super common thing, but it can happen. Best thing you could do is go to your doctor if you can, and ask about…

I quit weight watchers after a few month plateau. Its not an awful program, my mom is on it, and doing very well. but since I went to calorie counting on MFP, I feel like I get to eat a lot more, and I'm paying a lot more attention to things like my protein, sodium, fiber, fat, and other things I never really looked at…

I burn a lot of cals doing the boxing and volleyball. Had to change the computer player to professional or expert to get a serious burn on it.

Have it and love it! My family has a busy schedule, and I can't always make it to the gym, and the weather is only "nice" for 3 months a year up here, so I do a lot of workout videos. I get so bored with them fast though, same thing every day. Biggest loser changes up every day, so I love it for that. Sensor doesn't always…

Same problem, I have a light snack when I get home from work, workout, and then eat dinner around 6/630. I'm up usually until about 10 or 11 so I have started to get a craving close to bedtime. To help myself out, I try(TRY, lol) to plan a snack when my daughter goes to bed at 830 before the craving comes. My plan is a hot…

As far as feeling like it, I don't! lol, but as far as health wise, my doctor told me if its just in the head area(cold, headache, sore throat) that it was safe for me to work out. If its all over or below the head(fever, vomiting, coughing that shakes your whole body) take a rest instead.

I would think it would depend.. How long were you doing 30 minute cardio sessions? just a couple weeks, or a few months? Maybe you're able to do it now, how does your body feel after a workout? Good sore, or painful? I recently upped my cardio quite a bit, but the biggest reason was all of a sudden the time for me to quit…

Found this website, don't know how accurate it is because.. well its on the internet *wink* lol, but I'm using it a few times for calculating calories burned http://www.healthdiscovery.net/links/calculators/calorie_calculator.htm

I don't think you're coming off as a spoiled brat. I think its hard for all of us at sometime or another, and mfp can be a great outlet for some of the things you're thinking. Keep up the great work, and even if you can't get a workout in today, try to get yourself some kind of relaxing "me" time, even if its just 5…

ditto on the exercise ideas. I also recommend not to starve yourself tonight, that may cause future binging, either late night, or in the morning. Maybe eat a light dinner with lots of good things in them? Like a salad, or some yogurt and fresh fruit?
-
Awesome ideas! I love the idea of puree and sneaking veggies in! I have no issues with sending my 3 year old to be bed without dinner here and there if she won't eat what we've made, but there are times I will give in and make her a separate meal, but only if she tries what we've made. But I'm lucky that I have a 3 year…

I feel you! I'm having the opposite problem, I've been losing weight, but not inches, at least in anywhere I've measured. I can see everything toning and not hanging, but its not changing actual size...

If anyone else is ever looking for the answer to this question, you can change how long you workout at the end of the week. After you do weigh in and elimination, you see a screen with your weekly results and weekly score. Then you can select view/edit personal goals, and that is where it will let you change how long you…

I had a weekend like that, just a week ago! Our town was having massive evacuations and flooding, and I just threw my diet to the wayside. I'm back on track, and looking at everything with new eyes. This is the rest of our lives, and if we think we are never going to have another bowl of regular ice cream, or piece of…

I don't use quick play, and I found where you can change intensity, and change trainer, but no place to change the time. I guess I could do quick play instead

Great thread! I got on the scale this morning after a grueling weekend of painting my house, and was up 4 pounds! guess I will wait a few days before I get on the scale again.

Today was supposed to be day 9 for me, but never found the motivation! argh, well, tomorrow is another day
