I have the fitBit flex for over a month now and love it. Love when I get the happy vibrating notice when I have hit my steps in the day. Have had no issues syncing it up with my iPhone. No one really notices it on my wrist, it just resembles all the other bracelets people wear.

Don't it feel awesome? I did that a few months ago. Took 8 boxes to the homeless shelter. Well 1 was a box of shampoos, conditioners & soap I take out of my hotel rooms during the week, but everything else was wardrobe related.

My work requires me to travel. I weight everyday I am at home on my own scale first thing in the morning. I record it on my iPad in notes. I need to see how, what I am eating & being on the road effects my weight. I went too many years ignoring my weight & that's how I got to where I was.

My peeve is when people ask you how you have lost the weight and you tell them what you have done, and you get the response oh I could never cut the carbs, sugars, white flour, processed foods etc. No matter what it is all you get is the negative. Then they go on to what you should be doing, eating or cutting out of your…

1. Lays or Ruffles potato chips- can't eat just one or one handful. It usually ends up one bag. 2. Flour chips & salsa from a Mexican grocery store.... yummy 3. Bread- with a hard crispy crust Carb *kitten* here- I don't can't keep these things in my house.

What I have noticed ( and do myself) in social scenes is how many bottles of Mio Liquid , or ICE flavored water is being brought in the bar to add to drinks or use for mixers. That way you are not getting the calories from the mixer (juice or soda). Few weeks ago I was sitting with a friend at a bar on a Friday night and…

I have not had any form of alcohol since 2/25/13, my last round of cocktails was Sunday 2/24/13. I remember it well. My friends have enjoyed having a DD though. I had messed around with MFP for about 2 year. Would loose 20 gain back 15. Made some major changes end of February and am down 42 pounds.

1. Lays Wavy Potato Chips or Ruffles ( the whole bag will be gone in one sitting) 2. Cheez-it's 3 Cherry Donut Holes 4. M&M's Plain ( Frozen from the Freezer$ 5. Sunflower Seeds ( they go well with the M&M's) I have never tried Nutella, but from reading on here I will just keep telling myself its evil and don't buy it. I…

Throw it out, take it to work with you tomorrow ( so all your co workers eat it), hide it in the freezer. Out of sight out of mind. Don't allow it to derail you.

I am also a fellow road warrior. I have traveled with work for 20 years. Most of my region is with in driving distance, have to fly sometimes for meetings. Eating on the road healthy is hard work, you never know what's being added to your food while its being cooked in restaurant kitchens. For the past few weeks I have…

I have these beautiful farm fresh eggs brown eggs that have this high yolk, so no way and I wasting that yolk. 1 egg= 70 1% Milk 8 oz=100 2 slices Turkey Bacon =60 1 English Muffin=72 Hot Tea =0 _____________________ Total 302

My phone stays in my locker at the gym , that is my mental time and I don't want to be chatting on the phone. I really don't give a crap on who is watching me, again that is my time and the only one I am there to impress is myself. But men with cologne & and women with perfume that lingers long after you have pased or left…

Cross Canadian Ragweed 6. Dwight Yoakem ( put on a hell of a show) 7. Violent Femmes 8. The Paladins 9.Coco Montoya 10. Puddle of Mud 11.…

Was not aware someone's sexual preference would matter on a weight loss sight. :huh:

This one made me laugh. I was getting a pedicure at the time, think the lady thought i was a bit wacky I was laughing so hard.

You can always check the local good wheel or thrift stores to get you buy on those in-between sizes that you don't want to spend a ton on money on.

45 here and childless by choice. Had a few relationships end due to the fact they wanted kids and I did not. In my early 30's dated a man 6 years younger then myself that had 2 daughters every other weekend. That was ok but he wanted to add more too it, and I felt he need to take care of the 2 he already had. (call me…

You have all inspired me . I need to check out c25k now. I tried jogging several years ago, ended up with a stress fracture in my left shin and on crutches for 6 weeks. Just decided then that fat girls should not jog. So excited to see what this entails. Thanks

Wow....great progress. Congratulations to you.

Can someone recommend a easy to use HRM? And do you get one at a sporting good store?

Never thought I would enter a phone debate on MFP, but here we are. Explain to me this scanning thing you all are doing. Is that just the droid that does it? I have been leaning towards a iPhone cause I love my iPad. But now you have me wondering. Time to upgrade from the blackberry.

You look fabulous, keep up the great job.

Maybe I should cancel my Botox appointment on Monday..........:laugh:
