Tonight I tried the Lawry's Caribbean Jerk marinade on some boneless skinless chicken breasts. It's not very spicy...just a little "kicK"...but it certainly turned up the flavor on the chicken.

I just got a spinning bike a few weeks ago. My gyn (Gold's in Newport News, VA) brought new bikes and sold the old ones for $250. The "old" ones are Schwinn Evolution models which were purchased in 2004 and still retail for $1250 on the Schwinn website. Pretty sweet deal! It's a great bike!

Thanks for the compliment!

I've been attending spin classes regularly (3 days a week) for about a year and they have me in the BEST cardio conditioning of my life. My only complaint is that some of the classes can get a little loud for my taste, so I'm looking forward to the opportunity to ride my heart and challenge myself to some tunes that I…

Watch out now...it's addictive. You'll never be able to workout without it again. Mine just stopped working:sad: and I am still traumatized. I waiting to get my warranty paperwork in the mail so I can get my replacement.

I am soooo excited to report that I am getting my very own personal SPINNING BIKE!!!:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: Spinning is my all-time favorite cardio-workout, but I don't get to do it as often as I like because I work full-time and I'm a full-time student and the class times don't work with my schedule. BUT, my gym…

You're right Alf...having a goal is great, but having a plan to get to that goal is even more important. For me, eating better is the most important thing that I have to do. Exercising is the easiest thing for me. If I could workout everyday and eat whatever I wanted to, I would be one happy camper. But since that doesn't…

1. My goal is to weigh 150 lbs. 2. When I see that number on the scale! 3. I haven't thought about this, but I love to travel so I will probably treat myself to some sort of trip.

My Honey and I are leaving for a 7 day cruise on January 1st, and I would LOVE to be down to 180 lbs by this date. I currently weigh 199 lbs, so that's a big dream. I'll be happy to get down to 190!

Thanks May...I feel a lot better!

Don't let the scale scare you. I jumped on this morning and to my amazement, my weight was exactly the same. It wasn't a weight loss, but considering we've just come through a holiday, I'll take it becaue it isn't a weight gain!:drinker:

Me @ 223lbs (yuck...that spare tire:sick: ) Me @ 199 lbs (LOOK!...I have a collar bone:bigsmile: )

Happy Monday Everyone!:drinker: I am happy to report that after the Thanksgiving Holiday (which also happened to be my 26th birthday) I maintained my weight of 199lbs. :flowerforyou: Now, I know some may find it disappointing to not have lost weight, but when holidays come, I am happy to not gain weight! Hope everyone has…

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: You guys totally crack me up!

He He...me too. But they'd probably get sick of eating Lean Cuisine's because I'm certainly no chef!:bigsmile:

Good Monday Morning Everyone! Well this week feels like starting over week for me. I have been in South Carolina since Friday with a group of girl friends from college. We pretty much turned into college kids again and ate and drank as much as humanly possible, so I have absolutely no intentions of getting on a scale…

Welcome Stepie and good luck to you!:bigsmile:

Well I'm glad to see it's not just me. I thought I was some kind of alien!

Welcome Abby! Good luck to you!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!:drinker: Now...Do you mind if I jump on the band wagon and celebrate with you:huh:? As of Monday, November 17, 2008, I am under 200 pounds for hte first time since 2006. My trainer weighed me and I weighed in at 199 pounds exactly:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: . I almost cried!

Has anyone else noticed that their feet have gotten smaller since losing weight? Over the past few months, I've noticed my shoes flopping around on my feet a bit, but I didn't pay it any mind. I finally went and had my feet measured at a shoe store, and the man told me that I wear a size 7. I'm thinking, no way:noway: I…

:bigsmile:

If I were Amy, I'd be wearing my purple shirt for the rest of the season. Last season, when Ali came back, she refused to choose sides and wore her pink shirt. That was a smart move.

Why is Bob still pushing this Blue Team crap. They are singles now. It's every woman/man for her/himself!

He He He...we're terrible!

I WANT A LEOTARD!

My whole point was, if you're not all the pretty on the outside, you should at least TRY to be pretty on the inside. She's just a lost cause.:grumble:

The carbs also come from the tomato sauce. Tomatoes are full of (natural) sugar.

BLACKSBURG??? Are you a Hokie?!?!
