Have you tried the breakfast bars yet? They are very good also and great for on the go snack or a special treat at night.

Thanks for the info becca, this time we're going to DO it!

I belong here:smile: I havent figured out what kind of plan im going on..at this point i think i need a lifestyle change and diet which I can live with from this point forward. I need to lose 100+. Do I need to post how much I weight at the moment?:embarassed:

when im pressed for time i have a granola bar w/ 2 tsps low fat peanut butter & 1/2 of a banana..its just enough

lol..on the "go fill your face" button..thats so cute! ..I have that button also and work has a tendency of pushing that button frequently!:sad: i use to have candy stashed for my clients..well we all know who ate most of it!:noway: so now its a no candy fly zone ...and I use water and a cup of coffee to fill in the…

Ive had similiar problems myself and found if i have my bigger meal at lunch then have a lunch sized meal for dinner..which usually consists of a meat and salad...and if i snack at all in the evening i provide myself with a little fruit salad or an assortment of my favorite veggies use a salsa for a dip! This strategy has…

This sounds really good..trying it for friday night dinner..do you have any idea what the calorie count is per biscuit?..oh what about making it into a kinda empanada pie..for on the go lunch with a salad..that sounds great too! Thanks!!:flowerforyou:

Bella seems like the typical 17 year old self absorbed teenager..lol..I think a lot of teen girls can relate to her because they identify with her and she definitely resonates with me remembering that age..very idealistic and capable of crushing on someone who is a complete stranger..I guess there is a certain kind of…

I always use events to inspire me to major cleaning frenzies..i get such a sense of accomplishment and enjoy the benefits for months..On Renesmee and Jacob..that could be a great potential spin-off and I'm wondering if she will at some point consider doing a series in that direction..on a personal note.. Doing pretty well…

this sounds sooo yummy to a carb freak..eating a nice healthy salad with chunks of love..step away from the bread!:ohwell: lol

So happy tonight my strategy seems to be working..going to bed SNACK-FREE! :happy:

Thanks so much for the greeting, :flowerforyou: I so appreciate everyone being so welcoming..I feel really comfortable here. :smile:

Sue, can I ask you what kind of diet youre on? I'm still looking for something that fits my lifestyle and tastes, so I'm a very curious kitty:flowerforyou:

Congratulations on staying focused! I find nightime is often my undoing so I have to stay vigilante until I go to bed, brushing my teeth early seems to help and having lots of water available..at least this is what's working for me right now. I tried looking for a trailer for Eclipse but its not out yet, :frown: i think…

Where theres a will theres a way..so I think its quite possible we could see something later on..:brokenheart:

I already have some goals for the new year but having this challenge will definitely put a more positive spin of fun on the whole deal. I can't choose between Team Jacob and Team Edward..I rilly enjoy both and we already know who wins bella.:flowerforyou: Not that its not going to be amazing watching Eclipse and I can't…

Would love to join in! I'm still 17 (at heart):blushing:

Thanks Cindy.:flowerforyou: It makes me smle too

Most defiitely my metabolism has slowed, and my activity level is nearly zero in comparison to what it was in my 40's. I intend to change that but need to figure how to eat first..still in a quandry as to what direction will be quickest with long lasting results..I think it must be different path for each of us..I hope I…

This thread is just what i need..My goals for January are: loss 8-10 lbs Cardio Training for 30 minutes 3 times a week Weight Training for an hour 2 times a week Journal what I eat No snacking after 8pm Wishing everyone a great 2010!

Has anyone had success with the South Beach Diet?? I've heard recently they have a revd up version that is supposed to deliver more weight loss? Please share your experience. Thanks!:flowerforyou:

old fashioned oatmeal dried cranberries, walnuts, toasted pecans, & sliced banana & 2%

Im in the same boat, let's compare notes from time to time:smile:

It would be great to have a trainer but at my gym you have to buy lessons in a bundle and that makes it pretty expensive..I had a trainer years ago and he was tremendously helpful in motivating me to use more weight and reps with squats and deadlifts

I do eat out on the weekends and thats probably part of it as i live in a small town and little exists past fast food and majorly wilty salads..maybe its better until i find a healthy alternative i just stay away from it altogether until i'm a little stronger, but a plan before i go may help. Thanks :)

i think its hard for family and friends to adjust to seeing you thinner..oftentimes people don't appreciate change, even positive ones if the change that presents itself makes them feel "less" successful..If you feel good where you at then do your best to smile, remain calm and say something positive about how good you…

Feeling hopeful..I overindulged on the holiday cookie parties, and realized I didnt have to sample every cookie on the tray :) for me thats progress! :) I've started and stopped quite a few times and its always after falling off the wagon ..but I'm beginning to realize that it doesnt have to be like that..if I have a bad…

Hi Krista, that would be great. Thanks so much for the warm welcome :)

I'm also starting on this journey (again) hopefully this time will be the charm :)
