  • To this, that is absolutely right! If there is a "healthy" alternative and the thought of eating it doesn't make you want to kill yourself, then great! Do it! but One shouldn't cut out every enjoyable thing in life. Just learn the value (or COST) of the yummy things and it will keep you sane during this journey! Eating…
  • Amen, Brother!! I'm one of those people who cannot survive on "health food". The IDEA of tofu makes me gag! (It's a texture thing...) Anyways, You are absolutely right!! Since I started on MFP, I haven't really changed my diet a lot. I eat out FREQUENTLY but have been good and eating more veggies (if they are an option) or…
  • Hey! We just tried the "Garlic Chicken" from Allrecipes.com and its easy and good! Not too many calories either.
  • It's never too late Maputi! We just hit our one month mark but still have two months to go! Just make a smaller goal to reach in two months, instead of three?
  • I don't necessarily want a bunch of random adds and would prefer if someone left me a little note as to why they want to be my friend.. there is usually a reason so it's nice to share! Like "hey your inspiring! be my friend" "hey we seem to have similar goals lets work together!" or whatever. I don't demand it in so many…
  • ah yea.. Phentermine will do that... Y'know I'm kind of at a loss about this case. Maybe you need something to increase your appetite.. I really don't know. Have you spoken to a doctor about it? I think this is a really important issue but I am not sure how to counter it. You may need to talk to a professional about it. I…
  • Robin... That is a really interesting problem to have. When did it begin? Is that how you started your weightloss? By stopping yourself from eating? Or is it a deeper fear that you will gain (back) weight? My biggest concern for you is that your body already seems to be "starvation" mode. You need to force yourself to eat.…
  • Alright! Is there anything challengers want to use for this coming week's challenge booster? A particular struggle your having a hard time with and want us to join in? If you wish to remain anonymous, for whatever reason, you can send me a message and I'll post the challenge in here for you. Feel free to send anything and…
  • @jnchorn Hey Girl, my advice is to SLOW down and stop being so hard on yourself. I think you really need to try and eat the calories you need. The way things are going you can tell that you are already starting to plateau. Losing 8lbs in two weeks is a lot.. and now your body is going into starvation mode so it's going to…
  • hey My goal is 170.. I do have a large frame and that would already be a huge step for me but.. YEA... 115 is a little scary for a 5'7"-5'8"er. Especially because your a dancer, probably with a good deal of muscle (that is heavy!), 115 could be dangerously small. I would speak with a doctor before you set that goal. From…
  • Alright Ladies! New week of the Challenge starts tomorrow! Pffssas and I have been talking about our weekly-mini challenges and how not everyone seems too keen on the Doc Oz challenge and so this is what we've come up with... Every week will we take something that one of the challengers is having an especially hard time…
  • I have a Bodymedia/Bodybugg and have a friend who has one and we both love it. I've heard mixed things about fitbit.
  • 4N6junkie's Week2 and beyond challenge: Don't be afraid to learn on others for support and encouragement. Thanks for all the love guys.
  • saylerm104... Amazon is the way to go! (hey that kinda rhymed!)
  • It's all about the cool band-aids. As a hairdresser, I cut myself relatively frequently and figure.. if I gotta use a band-aid.. it may as well be a cool/interesting one. At one point I had light blue ones with little ambulances on them and others that were comic-book bubbles that said things like ARGH! OOOOWCH!!!…
  • Day 4 Update: D1: Goals met and 230 under cal goal. D2: Goals met but 99 over cal goal. D3: Goals exceeded and 102 under cal goal. D4: Not starting out so good. I had a tiny snack for breakfast, did my workout, then was starving and overage at lunch. I haven't wrecked my cal limit for the day but can physically feel that…
  • auntiebabs, that is a really good tip!
  • This may sound weird but it worked for me: If it is candy that gets ya, eat a candy you don't like or like the least. Your less likely to eat tons/more of it then you should but still get your sugar fix. For example, I actually really don't like chocolate much.. it's ok but doesn't get me excited. I much prefer…
  • That is the way to do it man. More power to ya and the best of luck.
  • good for you jdownes!
  • Hey ladies! Soda is a big issue.. "Hi, my name is 4N6junki and I AM A COKE Addict. " I had cut down already to just 1 or 2 a day (I practically used to have one with every meal and before bed! eesh) Then, when I began this first real serious attempt at weight loss.. I discovered... that a) the types of calories in…
  • YOU POOR THING!!! 150lbs and a 36G!?! OWOWOWOWOW my back hurts thinking about it and I'm a DD! It all depends. I have a sister who is much heavier then I am but is only a B cup. so.. *shrug*.. again.. OW
  • Hey thatgoodone, I suggest making practical and specific goals. If you don't give yourself specific goals, even mini-ones you will never know if you have succeeded and attained those goals. That is the only way to check yourself and see if you are or aren't doing what you should/nt be doing. Your goals don't have to be…
  • What is holding me back: A wicked sweet tooth, laziness, and time! How I will overcome this: Resisting my sugar cravings, working past my laziness, and managing/scheduling my time better. My Overall Goal: SW: 267 GW: 240 by 11/1/11. I don’t want to lose too quickly because I would rather keep off the loss and maintain…
