MMM MMMM! Thanks for posting this!

I was just thinking I'd love to make some banana nut bread with some bananas I let get a little too ripe. Viola! I think I have the recipe! :)

BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YUMMY!

MFP almost always overestimates the amount of calories burned for me. I totally recommend an HRM. I agree, it's nice to not have to guess at what calories you burnt that day.

I'm actually going to stay under my calorie goal. Just something I'm challenging myself to do. But to each his own. :)

bumpity bump

AGREE 100%!

Good morning, fit life friends! :yawn: I'm still battling bronchitis, but I had a great day yesterday, and am looking forward to a great day today! Had a filling breakfast, going to have a light lunch, then I'm going to a sushi restaurant with two of my friends. I already have surveyed their menu, and know what I'm going…

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!! :) I'm happy to report that my scale, for the first time in over a year and a half, my number did NOT start with a 3!!! I weighed in at 299.8! (close, but still, it's a 2!!!) That puts my total weight loss for this week at 3.6lbs! I'm SOOO happy! Hope everyone has a great Friday; I'm off to fix my…

I wore it for the first time and I was also concerned that it would bug me. It didn't at all; I put it right below my bra, and I didn't even know it was there. Of course, we girls are used to having a band across our chest, so it was nothing different! ;) I saw those bras as well, but I was like you: now way I could wear…

Today has been a really great day! I tried on a dress just for funsies and it fit WITHOUT a spanx on! YAY! Had a great day food wise, too! Did just want I wanted to do as far as eating, including my green smoothie! It was actually REALLY good with the spinach, so I ended up getting 4 servings of veggies today and two of…

@katcena: Thanks so much for your reminders! Even for those of us who have been at it for awhile, these reminders on how we got where we are today are greatly appreciated! Yesterday, I was under calories, but I was just listening to my body and I realized that I've not had enough veggies in the past few days. I mean, I'm…

monet, I got mine off of Amazon and it's a Polar FT4--it came with a chest strap. It was right around $100, so thank goodness for birthday gift cards from a friend! :)

Having a great day so far today. Good breakfast, good lunch, and I'm on my third 32 oz cup of water. I ordered a HRM and it came in today, so I'm kinda excited to exercise tonight and see the actual amount of calories I burn! :) Hope everyone's having a great day!

OH, AND IT WAS PRETTY CHEAP!: $39.00! I may get a little too excited about this...:laugh: Merlanda

Loredana, This is the one that I got--the Ninja Master Prep Food Processor. It's a combo Blender/Food Processor!!! I LOVE IT! It makes salsa making a snap, too! http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=14895654&findingMethod=rr

I bleed Orange! :) Go Pokes!

Hello everyone! Today is dreary here in Oklahoma, and I LIKE it! I LOVE days like this! Currently, I'm about to finish up 52 oz. of water...and it's not quite noon yet! YEAH! I've logged everything I've eaten so far, logged my planned lunch and dinner (except for the "side" to go with my mom's soup tonight), and even my…

Judy, from what I understand, the 30DS is just 20 minutes, plus 10 minutes warm up and cool down. Any confirmations on this?

Thanks so much to you two ladies for taking this group and allowing the rest of us to join! SO encouraging to get on here and read what everyone else is up to on the healthy lifestyle journey we're all on. I did my wii boxing tonight, but my cold and chest congestion got the best of me tonight and I didn't get to start the…

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I've been looking for a GOOD, tahini free hummus recipe, simply because I've been unable to find tahini! This sounds SO great! Thanks again! :)

I'm posting this now because I may not be able to post it tomorrow morning, but Judy, I'm following your lead and I'm committing to doing my exercise tomorrow: Tomorrow, I'm going to do 15 minutes of Wii boxing, and also do a Wii EA Sports Active session. I'll report in when I've done that exercise; won't be til tomorrow…

I put some paper towels in the bottom of a tupperware bowl with lid, then put the lettuce in there. It keeps the lettuce fresh for twice as long.

Welcome! You've come to the right place for support and HEALTHY LIVING! Feel free to add me as well! :)

I'm curious about this too! Thanks for asking! ;)

If you've never had venison, it can be pretty "gamey" if you're not used to it. I was raised on it and I love the taste of it. Between myself and my dad, sisters, bros-in-law, we have enough deer to live off of for the year. Anyway, my mom doesn't like the "gamey" taste of deer, but if you soak it in milk overnight, that…
