  • Usually some kind of sandwich/wrap with plenty of protein. Also fruits like apples or strawberries. And I always bring a little container of almonds with me to school for snacking. Feel free to check out my diary. On the weekends I tend to make a large batch of black beans and grilled chicken breasts that I can eat off all…
  • Read this article when you have the chance. It's long, but I think it'll help answer a lot of your questions and change the way you understand food. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/28/magazine/28nutritionism.t.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0
  • I live in Central FL. I break a sweat just walking to the mailbox.
  • I'd suggest you avoid buying food inside the parks if you can. It's WAY over priced and mostly not worth the calories. Eat breakfast before you leave the hotel or resort. Bring snacks with you that you could carry in a backpack and won't spoil like nuts and bananas. My family would always take a break in the afternoon and…
  • Those are my exact same numbers! I started in January at 193 (although I may have been a few lbs heavier), and I've lost roughly a pound per week since then. So right now I'm hovering between 186 and 185. MFP first set me at 1200 cals per day which I managed for about a week. I was crabby and miserable and bumped it up to…
  • Your husband sounds like a jerk who doesn't respect you. I'd feel like **** if someone who's supposed to love and support me spoke to me that way. Stick to your guns, kick butt doing the 30DS, and shut your husband up for good!
  • I'm new to this and I'd love to join! My goal is 50 miles and so far I've done 9 :)
  • I've stopped spending so much time in the living room at night since it's so close to the kitchen. Now I go to my bedroom after dinner and chew LOTS of gum, drink water, and browse the Success Stories boards here on MFP. I factor in calories for a late snack so if I do get hungry I may have some yogurt or an english muffin…
  • My friends and I always keep those dark chocolate Dove Promise candies in our art studio. I maybe have one or two a day; they keep the cravings at bay, and they're away from home where I'm more prone to binges. I also started keeping Ghiradelli 86% cocoa squares at the studio, too. I find I only eat a square a day and it…
  • I get lot's of fiber; anywhere from 20-60g a day! Often I get TOO much :D I eat a lot of oatmeal, brown rice and black beans. There are also a lot of bread products made with extra fiber like Thomas English muffins and Ole Extreme Wellness tortillas. I also get fiber from fruits like strawberries, avocado, bananas, and…
  • Seriously. Women should only be on TV if they meet typical American Male beauty standards and have rockin tattoos of pinup ladies riding dream catchers. Also, what's up with women being allowed to write about their experiences? Who green light that, am'i'right? And while we're at it, Hilary Clinton would never win a beauty…
