Guy has the right idea..Nicely put!

Being Clean cut

I have to exercise until I can burn off 300 - 400 calories, otherwise I don't feel I've done enough.

I want to JOIN!!

Heavy ppl once believed that eating once a day was sufficient.. unfortunately it only stops your metabolism and you still gain weight.. she doesnt know what shes talking about.. Follow MFP and lose the weight safely

Hi Everyone Age: 45 Gender: FEMALE Married? YES Kids? 1 Goal weight: 140 Current weight: 222 Height: 5'4'' Favorite exercise: walking/Treadmill Least favorite exercise: eliptical machine Pets? 2 dogs Calorie goal: 1300 Special dietary needs: n/a How often do you work out? 3-4 x per week Current program you're using: Gym…

It's only a set back if you don't think about your next choices and the consequences.. Otherwise my suggestion would be.. get right back on your calorie goal today and don't continue to binge.

I live in a two story-condo that's on top of another two-story condo. Upstairs I have carpet but I enjoy working out downstairs on the wood floors.

I personally love cooking MUFFIN STYLE.. I mix eggs, peppers and cheese .. like you would an omelet and put them in a Muffin Pan to bake.. Eat them and store them for a day or two.. they'll hold up in the fridge. Also I love mini meatloaves.. same thing.. mix and bake in a Muffin Pan. Great with a salad on the go!

Yes but at my gym I program MY weight MY time and MY speed.. so I believe my machines reading and change it on the MFP entry .. hope that works for you too. P.S. trust the one that reads the least amount burned .. you can't go wrong with burning a few more calories!

I have been stared at, but I personally don't break down nor turn away.. I guess I have THIS LOOK on my face that says.. "yeah, say it.. I DARE YOU TO SAY IT!" But I grew up in LA, California.. We learn really quick not to back down or other people take advantage of your civility. All I have to say is if anyone hurts you..…

My doc says i'm borderline diabetic.. but I think I am since it runs in my family. Plus my weight doesn't help but I've made the decision to get healthy !!

Excellet suggestion! .. Your body craves energy and since you won't go to sleep, it's decided it needs nourishment to continue working during the night. . Dr Oz says.. get enough food, water and SLEEP to lose weight! :wink:

I love that comeback!

I'm with YOU!! I won't go Vegan by choice... My sis is vegan, but she's gaining weight now where she's never been heavy in her life.. EVER!

That's some amazing change.. When I get good at this MFP thingy .. I want to lose weight like you too !

Another day ALIVE is another chance to do better.. Keep positive!! YOU CAN DO THIS! and We'll all be cheering you on! :drinker:

1. NONE, zip, zero, nada 2. Never 3. Nothing 4. NEVER regretted it for a moment :happy:

45 here and I have 100 pounds to lose .. I'd be happy to cheer and jeer .. if you can take honesty! :smile:

Anyway i Can.. MMMM mmmm MMMmmmm.. Cali woman here and we love avocados.. plus I've found out how good they are for your body .. and they are good even if you have high cholesterol .. Avo Gobble Gobble is a good choice.. love the turkey sandwich with a few slices of avocado

I LOVE this suggestion.. sounds wonerful.. thanks for posting !!

:wink: I love brown rice but Barley has more fiber and less calories.. If you're interested in trying it

That was hilarious.. thanks for the joke.. Btw.. i thought you were nuts when you said "i'm deleting my account" :laugh:

We met at 16 yrs of age back in High School. We were both 20 yrs old when we married, and we've been married now for 25 years. I guess you just know when it's right! :wink:

Hey HUN, I'm not asian but I know what it feels like to be heavier than your siblings. Add me and let's lose the weight and get healthy! :smile:

My pet peeve.. go in sweats.. go in shorts.. but leave the PJ's at home.. and with Slippers?? TOTAL ICK!! It's almost like saying SCREW YOU WORLD.. i dont respect myself enough to get dressed before going out.

I'm an Elementary School Library Media Manager. I have been doing this work for 14 years and I love it. Read to Succeed! :happy:

I love how i increased my cardio workout to 1 hour (400 calories) .. GO ME.. not an easy task for a 222 pound woman of 45 :heart:
