hahaha husbands can be a pain sometimes :-) but mine is the same way when it comes to grocery shopping in a sense except for the fact that if something says "low fat" he assumes it is healthy and that he can consume as much as he wants of it! also he loves his sweets and its so hard to have them in the house. also, like…

Muscle weighs more than fat! Also, it could be water intake. Don't get discouraged, keep up the good work! Just remember, how you look and feel is more important than how you weigh. If you have more definition, feel stronger, can exercise longer, and have clothes fitting looser then you are definitely doing things right…

I weigh in every day. I don't necessarily write that number down or anything and i'm not really disappointed if it goes up by a few pounds. It just has become habit for it and I like to see where I am. But like I said, it's not something I take too seriously. If it shows a few pounds lower I don't get too excited. If you…

I know you said that you didn't realize that they self single serving kettle corn and neither did I! But I found that jolly time has kettle corn popcorn, single serving bags, 100 calories each. They are endorsed by weight watchers and they characterize it at 1 point. It is so so good! You should try it :-) But good luck…

ditto. as long as im full, i don't feel the need to keep eating just because i feel obligated to eat exercise calories.

Has anyone bought a timex? I just bought mine yesterday and I'm excited for it to arrive, but I'm hoping I made the right choice! I personally chose the timex because you can replace the batteries yourself whereas polar watches need to be sent in to have the batteries changed.

When females go into use free weights and the entire time the guys just stare. I mean Come on Men, have you really never seen a girl before in short and a tank top? Ugh. We can be at the gym sweaty with no makeup and we are STILL eyecandy to men, its disgusting.

I personally wouldn't NOT buy fruit because of an advertisement and especially because the price was too low. But hey, thats just me.

When I tell people my husband serves in the military and he is overseas and they go "Oh I heard it's really bad over there, people get hurt all the time". REALLY? You really think that comments like those are needed? I just want to take their "sympathy" and shove it up their @$$! Ok, i'm done now :-) thank you for that…

I don't feel like I am lying to myself about being full. There are times that even when i am full I take a few more bites because I know my body needs the calories and I don't want to jip myself. But in all honestly I do eat balanced meals. I don't eat a lot of bread because I don't like deli meat and I don't like cheese…

I'm one of "those people" who struggle to eat all my calories a day and I know to some it's hard to explain so I'll do the best that I can. If I wouldn't exercise I wouldn't have a problem almost eating all the calories, but my calories burned during my workouts puts me in extreme deficits. Yes I was (and still at times…

Yes I do eat diet food (fat free icecream, nonfat yogurt, fat free dressing, etc) and my deficiet all depends on how much I work out that day. I made my food diary public so you all can see it. Some of it may not make sense because I work nights so I will wake up at 4 in the afternoon and have breakfast and not put…

A great salad that I love has the following: 1 breast of Tyson precooked grilled chicken breast fillet (in freezer section of grocery store, 6 breasts in a package) 3 cups spinach 1/2 cup carrots 1/2 cup mandarin oranges ( no sugar added, drained) 1/2 cup diced apples All you have to do is baked the chicken on a cookie…

Welcome! It's great that you've decided to take control of your weight again, this site helps alot! Good luck and let us know if you need anything :-)

I like to go by the gym machines rather than mfp. MFP does not know my resistance or whether or not I'm doing hills or a weight loss program and that makes a difference with how many calories you burn. Also, depending on how many miles your doing, it means you are going faster or slower, each burning different numbers of…

Maybe add a crystal light packet to your water to give it flavor. You may be more inclined to drink it if it tastes like lemonade or iced tea.

A big thing for me is trying new foods that I thoguht I hated. For instance, a new love of mine are spinach salads topped with apples, mandariun oranges, carrots, and fat free italian dressing. It's a low calorie, low fat, high nutrient meal and it's so easy to do! Also, a big thing for me is portion control. Even the…
