Welcome all to the site!

Welcome to the site!

And that's nothing to sneeze at...

Hi Chenyl...I feel many of us have let ourselves go after marriage/children...you are by no means alone. And joining this site, you're absolutely not alone. Glad to have you on board!

If it's not too invasive, would those who have purchased it please give the rest of us an idea on how much a pint costs? (Include your regional area). I see "expensive" but what are we talking about exactly? EDIT: Okay I'm seeing $46.13 for a 6-pack online, but I'm more interested in what local (to you) stores are charging…

NSV = No Soup pour Vous, which is (very loosely) translated from a French dubbed episode of Seinfeld. bump = those things in the road that they put down to keep you from driving too fast. I know, I had the same questions when I first joined, but luckily I was able to figure it out on my own... :)

I shouldn't bring up my love affair with Wendy's then, huh... LOL

I have the Android app. It's decent but not very friendly for small screens and those with big fingers. I won't mention any names... (whistling innocently) I don't have a "favorite" per se but I occasionally look at the titles of the 5 most recent posts that are updated frequently on my home page and if the subject grabs…

You were in Florida and didn't contact me?? I'm hurt...sniff sniff... ;) I just turned 40 last week myself. :)

I have a similar problem by the afternoon...I've been trying various methods but what seems to be working is drinking more water throughout the day and consuming more fiber.

Welcome aboard!

I'm not going to say it's impossible, because it's going to depend on how exactly you plan on losing the weight. For example, do you really need BOTH legs? (tongue firmly planted in cheek; please don't take that seriously) Lipo could very well help you achieve that goal as well. But if you're referring to just diet and…

Welcome to the site!

Also consider: muscle mass weighs more than fat mass does. If you're gaining muscle quicker than you are losing fat, you might be gaining weight--in a good way.

You can probably go with a generic "regular coffee" or "decaffeinated coffee" (depending on what you purchased).

I'm on both sides of the argument...if I were to go through 2-32oz bottles of PowerAde Zero, that would be the equivalent of 8 glasses of water, but I'm also getting all the positives/negatives that comes with drinking something that isn't straight water. So to compromise, what I'm doing now is adding Mio to bottled water:…

And I found another useful set of calculations here: http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/harris-benedict-equation/ And one more here: http://straighthealth.com/pages/tools/healthcalclb.html

I came across this calculator for those who wish to adjust their caloric intake goals on here: http://www.webmd.com/diet/calc-bmi-plus Was hoping it would also help give "hard" numbers to adjust protein, fat, and carb goals but, alas... Update: I think I found one that does here!…

Pleased to meet you as well! Welcome to the site!

I use it to "predict" what I'm going to eat on a given weekday, based on what I consume in the morning and what I plan to consume throughout the day (basically, what I bring to work) as I don't have internet access at work and while I like the MFP app for Android, it's not very friendly on small screens. On weekends, since…

I haven't given up sugar completely but over the years it has been something I feel I've been consuming less and less of. Being on Atkins for as long as I had been made me realize what sugar was doing do my body. Most recently (within the last year) I've given up diet soda and, for the most part, carbonated beverages in…

According to this site: http://fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/dennys/grilled-shrimp-skewers-with-rice-pilaf The meal comes with rice pilaf. I would imagine the carbs came from there. If you didn't order/eat the rice, I would imagine you're safe.

Welcome to the site!

I guess it depends on WHEN you work. My schedule is 8-4:30, 5 days a week. I tend to have more energy in the morning, so I get up early (I mean EARLY...) to get on the treadmill for a 35-45 minute workout. Then I continue my routine of preparing for the day when I get home. Like you, I don't feel like going back out after…

I was going to ask the same question...what's the challenge? I had 4 ccs in mine at surgery (1/18/11), then it was brought up to 5, then 5.5, then 6, and now I'm at 6.25 with anticipating another fill next month. The loss had been slow until the time between the last two fills, but I've become more aggressive with…

Welcome to the site!

My personal recommendation would be...if you're not hungry, don't eat! You've eaten SOMETHING already, so it's unlikely your body is going to go into starvation mode. If you burn more calories than you consume, that's the key to weight loss. Unless of course you're not TRYING to lose weight... And kudos for having a…

Good luck! And welcome to the site! :)
