That's what I was thinking.... I just needed some one to say, "Hey its okay to go over today you're shocking yourself." lol. :happy: Thanks for the help! :flowerforyou:

I don't weigh myself everyday, just once a week, so I'm not sure that one day of fasting would result in any difference on the scale for me.

Thanks anyway.... I hope some one will. :flowerforyou:

So I've hit a plateau that has now lasted three weeks. I checked out some posts and found that there are a few things you can do to help with a plateau. (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/20343-how-i-have-avoided-plateauing-length-warning) So I tried changing up my exercise routine first. I went from doing the…

I just bought a new heart rate monitor with a chest strap because I was tired of having to hold my fingers on the buttons on the cheapo one I bought. This one is a Sportline SX universal combo ecg heart rate monitor. It has continuous-read + on-demand heart rate combination. I've read the manual forwards and backwards and…

Congratulations!!! :drinker:

I really think that you're right. I have a bit of a temper (probably the understatement of the year but I get it honest from my dad lol) and tend to cuss and/or scream when i get really frustrated. He's just trying to protect them which actually makes me feel like I should praise him instead of jumping on him for hurting…

That's just what I needed to hear lol. I've always been told I act way older than I am too. I guess it just upset me so much because I know he knows I would NEVER do that. I used to baby sit my cousins kids a lot and even kept the nursery at our church when I was younger. I am actually great with children. Of course its…

I haven't met his wife either. :ohwell:

I don't think it was a joke. Trying to make things look like they were jokes when he knows he shouldn't have done/said them is one of his special talents.

First some background, then what happened today, then some ranting. BACKGROUND: My boyfriend is separated from his wife (not divorced yet) and he has two beautiful girls, nine and six. We've been together for almost a year and half now and I still haven't met his children yet. My birthday is coming up soon and for my…

That is so totally adorable! I think I need to get a new puppy for my dog to play with! :wink:

That's awesome! Way to go! Get your dance on woman, you deserve it!

I have about the same amount to loose as you and when I started MFP I was doing the exact same things you are and it wasn't working for me either. I checked out the posts shorerider left me [same ones she left you cause she's awesome like that :wink: ] and I increased my goal to 1 lb per week. Guess what my calories went…

I decided to update my goals because I wanted to up my exercise goal and get more fiber in my diet. I noticed after I did so that my calorie intake dropped by 10. I figured out that it dropped because MFP automatically entered my current weight into figuring up my needed calorie deficit. How often should you update that?…

This morning I watched Another Cinderella Story with Selena Gomez. It was a really cute movie with lots of singing and dancing. After it was over I got inspired and jumped up to dance around. Then I thought, "Hey I should strap on my HRM." So I did and I goofed off and danced around for about 20 mins and I burned 167…

That's awesome! I grew up in Abingdon VA and the creeper trail runs right through there. I used to go biking on it with my friends when I was younger. Its such a nice place. Glad you had a good time!

UPDATE: I took Chester to the vet and he was totally fine. The vet couldn't find anything abnormal about his throat and said that what we were feeling was probably just the natural shape. Because they're so little Pomeranians have some sort of extra protection over their trachea and that was most likely what we felt.…

Is that the Virginia Creeper Trail on your ticker? It looks very familiar to me... Thanks for all the support and clapping guys! :happy:

So enjoy some yummy pancakes, just go light on the syrup! :wink:

I stepped on the scale this morning for my weekly weigh in and I looked down and saw 178. :noway: I couldn't believe it so I stepped off and then back on again and sure enough 178. :love: I finally made it under 180! It was a small goal I know, but those first few have been the hardest for me. I hope I'm on a roll! Oh and…

Make your own chicken nuggets? I wouldn't have the first clue how to do that. Plus I'm only cooking for two (sometimes just one), not to mention I'm lucky to be able not to catch frozen chicken nuggets on fire. You're talking to the girl who has caught every appliance that heats food on fire at least once. I mean I caught…

Well I don't have high blood pressure and I drink eight to ten 8 oz glasses of water a day. Sometimes even more than that. Maybe I'm just weird but more often than not I sip on water all day long. I'll just hope its not that big of a deal and have another snack lol. Thanks for all the input guys! :flowerforyou:

I'm 100% positive that eating to much packaged food is why I have that problem lol. Today was bad for me anyway because we had a work lunch at which I was totally force fed two cookies. :laugh: Normally I have... Breakfast: Oatmeal Snack 1: Nutrigrain bar or apple Lunch: South beach diet or oscar mayer sandwich kit, sugar…

Not eating all my calories or eating too much sodium? I always find that if I eat all of my calories I end up going way over my suggested sodium intake. I'm usually not over on anything else except for fiber. Today is a perfect example of what I'm going through. At this moment I have 771 calories remaining and only 108 mg…

The movie is absolutely disgusting, but the book was good. :sick: I might join in, haven't had much time to read leisurely lately though.

I had this same problem only with Krispy Kreme donuts. So one day I just factored in a donut, actually I ended up working out so much that day that I got to have two! I guess I was way too over excited about fulfilling my craving. It took me [and no I am NOT kidding] an entire 30 mins to eat TWO donuts. They were…

I like doing that too, lol. My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 2 years now and it still amuses me to see the looks on people's faces when I tell them he's not my husband. Getting married is expensive anyway and we're broke but at least we're happy! :flowerforyou:
