I was also diagnosed with pre-diabetes. Since then I started running and eating better and have lost aboout 22 pounds so far. My most recent bloodwork showed my blood sugar was fantastic so my changes must be working. (yay) I definitely try eating fewer carbs than I used to and focus more on carbs from fresh fruit and…

yupper!

Can't wait to try this recipe! Thanks

You know I have to try this now that I saw the picture of it. :love: Looks so delicious! Thanks for sharing!

Yum!

Fantastic job!! Check out them curves!!! woohoo!

I usually order steamed shrimp with Broccoli- sauce on the side. Delish!

I wear headphones and listen to music (loud music) while at to work. Some mornings I forget to put them on, but the coffee slurper who sits across the aisle from me quickly reminds me to put them on!!!

My starter kit arrived within the first week. I was actually quite surprised to receive the package... I didnt realize it was part of the registration on their website. Pretty handy info included and a few samples of their bars. Bars are yummy... but don''t agree with my system well so I can't eat them.

Well, you certainly resized something... but it wasn't the pictures! :wink: Seems like you are doing everything right! Great progress! You look fab!

Good Luck and congrats on the new little one! What a happy time it must be for your family. :flowerforyou:

Sounds yummy. Thanks!

Hmmm... sounds interesting! Definitely something to try. Thanks for the idea. :smile:

July 23 = 139.8 August 6 = 140 August 13 = 138.9 August 20 = 137.2 August 27 = 137.2 :ohwell: (I was on vacation so maintaining is ok for now) September 3 = 136.8 Not sure how happy I am with the snails pace of my weight loss. I guess better slow than not at all, but I'd like to see it pick up a bit!

Today I will stay on track because yesterday I didn't. :ohwell:

Its amazing how 10 pounds can make such a difference. Looking good! Congrats!!! :smile:

You should join the Atkins group or one of the other low carb groups. Much better support system and you won't get all the negativity against low carb often found on the main boards. Great ideas and really wonderful people! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/5181-atkins-support-group…

GOOD LUCK LYNNE!!!!!!

WOOHOO!!!! July 23 = 139.8 August 6 = 140 August 13 = 138.9 August 20 = 137.2 :bigsmile: August 27 = September 3 =

:smile: Some great ideas in here! Guess I'll be pulling out my crock pot a little more often

This looks so yummy... and easy! I'll definitely be trying this one soon. Thanks for sharing.

I like fresh green beans.... steamed first. Then I stir fry them with a little sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, and a dibble of oyster sauce. Sometimes I'll use a bit of splenda or stevia for some sweetness. Just fabulous! Can't wait to hear what others are doing. I need some more good veggie ideas too!

Criminal Minds... love love love it!

Yummo!

yep... I gain anywhere from 4-7 pounds in the week leading up to my time of month and I eat like a hog! As soon as I start - the weight falls off and my appetite goes back to normal... almost immediately. Interesting to hear other ladies have those issues "during" Flo's visit. I don't record my weight at all during this…

link is blocked from work :grumble: Gotta try it later from home.

I weigh most meats cooked. Exceptions are ground turkey or beef or those items where the label only provides the nutrition info for the raw product. I like to be as precise as possible... its a sickness. :blushing:

I go to the gym directly from work most of the time so - yes. I look purrrty at the gym... for about 10 minutes. Then I start to look a little scary. :blushing:

Bumping to read later.

Fantastic! I was looking for this recipe recently. Glad someone bumped it back to the top!
