bump!

@everyone - did anyone watch the biggest loser? what did you think of anna - i can't decide if i liked her! @jennifer - great exercise on tues! stairs are killer! also, when i make fajitas, i have 1 or 2 small corn tortillas and if i want more i make a fajita salad @tryingeveryday - i know the feeling you are talking about…

Hi everyone - sorry I haven't checked in at all. I've been sick with a sinus infection, ear infection, and awful cough so I've just been home resting and eating soup. Today is actually the first day I'm logging my food again. I'll probably start up with goals again Thursday and try to read how everyone is doing! Big…

@loveme - wow, 11 miles! Way to go! @shannon - i still log even when I know im going over too, it's some accountability to not go crazy Yesterday... Diet - def had enough water, although i didn't log it all Exercise - didn't get to the gym but I did walk to the grocery store and cook. got out of work late and decided just…

totally needed this today...gained 5lb from eating crap and salt this weekend and need to move on!

bump

@billyjoebob - it takes some getting used to the chest strap but once you find the spot it's not bad this weekend didn't go that well - i went to two hour long spin classes which was great but i ate a TON and lots of salty food - sunday morning i was up 6 pounds! then i realized almost everything i bought at trader joe's…

@billyjoebob - log your cleaning! i don't know about you but i definitely sweat when i'm cleaning! if you have a HRM i would wear that =) i'm going to do that next time i clean (but MFP does have an entry for cleaning) -Jackie

i wonder if this effects the 100 calorie packs!

@wendy - I understand the convinience of a treadmill, esp if you have kids, but is it possible to go for a jog outside when they are at school? Or maybe walk to the grocery store and walk back (i really have no option but to walk to mine and I find canvas bags help because you can wear them on your shoulders) @shannon -…

This is the exact one I have - http://www.crock-pot.com/Product.aspx?cid=113&pid=391 I usually make a lot and freeze it (which is super easy for the crockpot). It's the right size for 4 people + leftovers but I'm actually considering getting a slightly bigger one (it does take up storage space though). The one thing I…

@shannon - you're really making me want a wii! also, will post my weight if i remember =) i can't access google docs at work @billyjoebob - welcome! @wendy - I was thinking that I really want to train for a 5k and you've totally inspired me, maybe try couch 2 5k if you're not a runner? I'm working on making mixes for the…

cw-x makes a GREAT cup sized sports bra (holds my 32 g's down)...there's also one i got at intimacy - myintimacy.com...they might have a store in your area

Wow, I am SHOCKED that your doc would recommend HCG. Anyone in the medical profession I have talked to said it's a hoax and it can be dangerous because of how little you are consuming. I would get a new doctor, STAT. Btw, I hear you on the shoe thing --- that's 1/2 the reason I got into yoga. No shoes!

I totally agree! And on those days I don't lose weight, I generally know why - it was that pizza I had when I 5 drinks deep or the nachos I ordered at the bar. But c'mon, if you're eating McDonalds and other fast food all the time of course you won't lose! That being said, it's astonishing how much buying a fast, healthy…

Morning! I just barely stayed under my calories yesterday and as planned did not work out. However, I did lose the 3 lbs I gained over the weekend! Today's goals... Diet: Stay under my calories, 8 cups of water recorded Exercise: Go to kettlebell class! Challenges: I have an exam for work tomorrow so I know I will want to…

hmm no bread machine, but i'd love to see the recipe!

Wow, sounds AMAZING! I would love to hear about the pineapple-upside down kugel, carrot kugel, and brisket! Desserts too =)

Hey everyone...hope everyone had a great long weekend! I had lots of fun up in the Berkshires but my diet did not go so well. It wasn't nice out so I didn't get ANY exercise on Sat/Sun/Mon and I ate a lot. Most of it was food we cooked but still no good. I also drank quite a bit...I'm up 3lbs today but I'm hoping to take…

Morning everyone! I survived my new trainer - he's actually great. Super tough workout though. He was super conscious of my lower back pain and i felt like he was really paying attention. Yes, it was incredible tough and he is demanding but I also felt great about myself for pushing and completing it. Plus when it got too…

lol with those stats i'm NEVER going to say i'm too tired again!

i'm not really planning on logging it for weight loss, more just curious...although if you think of it that way, i used to spin 3x a week before i really started on the weight loss journey but i still count my spinning now...

take a tylenol pm...or smoke but smoke so much you don't have the motivation to eat i am the queen of bad influences =)

@jennifer - i work in sales/account management at a large financial data provider in midtown manhattan...we provide software that houses data and analytical tools for corporations, traders, analysts, portfolio managers, etc...basically all the people that ruined the economy =) we also get free snacks - sure there's fruit…

Hey! Sorry for my absence yesterday - I was travelling for work during the day and went right to the gym when I got home, then dinner with my dad and his gf. I didn't really have goals for yesterday, other that have reasonable food while on the road. I definitely went over on the sodium (ty Starbuck's breakfast wrap) but…
