  • I made it 10 days the first try. My knees just hurt so bad and then had issues with asthma so had to lay off for a few days. I'm going to give it another try soon but I will have to modify through the jumping stuff so my knees don't give out again. Keep at it, I know I'm going to try, try, again!

  • Yes, its a new day. Start over and forget yesterday. I fear school starting up again and all the goodies in the workroom. Its just too easy to snag something when you walk through, even more than once in the day, especially if its been a rough day. Smile! Its Friday! :happy:
  • I also suffer from migraines since my teens. Relpax and Maxalt both have finally brought some relief I just don't like the side effects of taking them. Really leaves me loopy, hard to concentrate. I cannot exert myself in extreme heat. I can take heat, just not exert myself. Basically I've learned that if it triggers…

  • If I had that answer, I wouldn't be here now. :( Good luck!
  • edamame (soy beans) they are precooked in the freezer section, you just defrost in microwave or thaw in fridge. Grab a few each time you open fridge with munchies. a serving is 100 cal and soooo healthy (and yummy)
  • that sounds goooood!! used the last of the turkey today so I'll have to get some for this
  • Here in Missouri (and I'm sure other places too) zucchini and many other fruits/ vegis get left on your porch from neighbors who have overflow. I didn't get a garden in this year (very wet spring, just wasn't free on a dry day to get the tiling done), so I'm really hoping someone will leave me some jalapenos! I miss having…
  • I need to read your replies to this one!
    in losing inches Comment by stc74 July 2011
  • the stretch marks from pregnancy on stomach and upper thighs have lightened, but not gone. they shine and don't tan in the summer. I've lost weight before and a lot of the loose skin tightened up but there was some baggy stuff for a while. I'm hoping i can get it off again now.
  • It was such an eye opener to see how many calories can sneak into the day. I can see how I gained this weight, I just wish it was coming off faster. That spoon of peanut butter, that chocolate chip muffin, a cookie, a donut, whatever someone is sharing in the workroom....it is unreal how many calories I must have eaten…
  • Its a rainy day here, felt like some chili

  • I've shrunk to 5'9" but my lowest was 140, probably easiest to maintain the 150-155 range. I'm at 185 now trying to get back down there after eating way too much for a while. My first goal is 160 then I'll decide what comes next. Right now I've been working out as hard as my knees allow for 4 wks, gained a few pounds then…
  • edamame! (soy beans) they even come in 100 cal packs now too :)
  • last night: boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed, cooked with only enough oil to keep it from sticking in another pan: equal parts cubes small red potatoes and zuccinni with tiny amount of oil, salt pepper & garlic, just toss them a bit so they stay crisp. cottage cheese My kids all went for seconds on the vegis. I…
  • one recent family dinner I left pretty hungry: bbq chicken-skin on & sauce dripping, baked beans, cheesy potatoes, creamy green bean casserole, sweet tea, pasta salad and cake & ice cream for dessert. I picked at some food, moved it around on the place and drank a lot of water. What can you do sometimes?? My plan is to…

  • I'm not the only one on here! I was so excited to find 0 calorie margarita mix today and needed someone to share it with! Who knows how long its been there, but I just found it (my store hides the alcohol from the rest of the store so if you don't go lookin' you won't find it). Gonna enjoy some margaritas this weekend!…
  • enjoy the holiday and then start fresh the next day. I was excited today to find margarita mix with 0 calories!!! so margarita for on 65 cal each!! My favorite drink! I am going to enjoy the holiday with family and just try not to over do it on everything. I'm gonna try, can't say how that will go...but cheers! and btw,…
  • I hope you can come here. I'm so inspired by the stories on here. The people are generally so open & honest about their successes and when they fall off the wagon too. I'll support you! I'm losing the weight for the second time. Its not easy but I know its only going to get harder as I get older and I want a long healthy…
  • bump-gotta come back to these, might even be able to use pressure cooker on some :)
  • chocolate peanut butter protein shake--its like cake for breakfast :) dress your eggs up with tomatoes, onions, jalapenos or mushroom, hot sauce. when on the run my "fast food" breakfast is an apple, if I'm starving maybe a light cheese stick too. these can be eaten in the car
  • Congrats on finishing! I've never attempted a 5k and am pretty sure I wouldn't finish a 1k if I didn't walk. Be proud of your accomplishment and ignore all the idiots in this world, they aren't worth the energy.
  • By the end of the year I hope to 1.lose 20 pounds or more, be back in my "skinny" (for me) clothes. 2. get in 3 strong workouts a week even when work & kid schedules are crazy. 3. build strength in my knees or figure out what is wrong with them, i would like to be able to run or do step again. 4. find better ways to deal…
  • I hope to get back to it. Allergies and asthma have kicked my butt the last few days, I can't breathe well enough to do it. As soon as I can breathe--level 1 day 10. Might have to do it a couple times to work up the courage to start level 2. Good luck! It kicks my butt!
  • My DDs just need to be put back where they were 15 yrs & 2 kids ago. I'd even take smaller if they were perky :smile: Oh and to add, my guess is that guys just plain like boobs. I'm not sure size really matters as long as they are available :laugh:
