  • As an avid animal lover I'm just going to bump this. I own two cats and a german shep. mix dog, but not sure how to post photos from work.
  • The leftover thing is a tough one as we dont have them normally (currently I am living with 6 other people so when we cook dinner it is very very rare for their to be any leftovers) I like the idea of making some chicken in a crockpot. Any recommendations on how to make veggies more interesting for the boyfriend? He isn't…
  • I'm in nursing school and work long shifts as well as having clinicals so I feel you! Today on a 16hr shift I brought, two flour tortillas, some turkey salami, shredded cheese, greek yogurt dressing I made (with sirracha, spices and mustard), some cereal bars (special K) some ritz chip crackers, a few carrott sticks, some…
  • I am in nursing school, work nights/ long shifts a lot, so I track in a 24hr period but an odd one! I track from about 5am - 4:59am. I set it up as my meal names, its easier for me because there are days I eat the bulk of my food (between 12pm and 2am) and other days like when I have school I eat the bulk between 5am - 8pm…
  • Thanks :) It throws me because I love food! I married a chef for heavens sake! LOL But just there are some days where I go "eh...food just sounds so...bleh" :P or where I feel full all day, but it is nice to know it does happen!!

  • Thanks :) I'm closer to 5'10 -5'11 (Haven't really measured my height in a while! ) Unfortunately for me, my highest weight was my wedding!!! I can't wait to renew vows, healthier and hotter. My Husband was amazing when I told him he first was like "no way you dont look that heavy!" and then "I'm so happy you finally broke…
  • BUMP SO MAKING THIS!! I love reubens, I love soup, I love crock pot dishes. Triple win. :)
  • Oh so many! People who refuse to listen to reason. Folks who are bombastic (although saying bombastic is almost bombastic!) People who chew with their mouths open. Please Please keep the food in there, it makes me stare to see how much falls out. Finally People who laugh at others when they try to workout. :( At least we…
  • I'm Elizabeth a current CNA/teletech/Medical Secretary who is in the final year of nursing school. :) I've been big most of my life and am tired of people thinking I can't be serious about medical because I'm not healthy. I also want to make sure and be the best me I can be!
  • For work (I've pulled 16s at the hospital before and that is nuts) When you get a second, even if it is to chart or do anything, Sneak in some quick stretches, squats etc. Who cares if your at the nurses station dictating or charting and doing squats? No one is the answer (just please make sure your pants could take…

  • OP not sure where you heard that from O.o; According to the Mayo clinic which is generally backed up by quite a bit of research. A female that is relatively healthy that is in a temprant climate should consume about 2 liters a day or around 9 cups Now working out, you'd want to up it, but again you must take into accord…
  • I work late nights/have a late night schedule. I always log from wakeness to sleep on one day in MFP unless I've been up 24+ hours. I mean, for me one day is from being awake to being asleep. I also do a lot of my eating post midnight. I also work out that late as well a lot. I've lost about 50lbs so far doing it this way,…
  • SLLrunner :) Thanks! Yes, I know I will. I just hope when I reach my goal weight I won't be surprised at my maintenance calories! :) I will do as I do though since I want to be healthy. I don't want to be a hypocritical nurse speaking of health and not being healthy myself.
  • hearthwood, I lost weight this way in an odd way I was on here, lost about 10lbs, became homeless for a while and just got back on here after that and the main part of my weightloss was not done with MFP and tracking, though I wish it was! :S But thank you for the positive advice :)

  • What do you like for snacks? Sweet? Salty? etc Beef jerky is a fav of mine, if you can have the salt intake :) Pretty good calorie wise, and full of yummy protein. Also, consider making your own jerky, you can control it better than :D Or you can make little bags of trail mix. Take a favorite nut, candy, fruit etc and…
