oh yumm. I just did the same thing with simple sesame noodles from pinterest. I used splenda instead of sugar, will use reduced sodium soy sauce next time and add sesame seeds, carrot sticks and some broccoli slaw next time. Oh so fast and simple.

you look great!!!! May I ask how tall you are? I'm trying to figure out what I wil look at when I hit my first goal ;) you should be proud. Keep up the great work!

LOVE to Hate on the 30 day Shred, but it's totally worth it. We slacked for a while, but are back at it. whatever you do, don't stop. LOL restarting is rough!

COFFEE....love a good Dominican Gold in a French Roast. Nice, low acid, balanced cup of coffee. MMMMmmmm

glad you are going to the doc. It sounds like pluersy or something asthma-ish! hoping you feel better fast!

Don't stop interacting with them. Remember you have minutes per age. a 3 yr old has a 3 min attention span. A 1 yr old..yup, you have them for about a minute. Plan activities with the 3 yr old and corral the other two with something harmless yet fun. If you want to teach letters, get cookies sheets out....put pudding or…

the whole show! I love a big brain!

My husband and I do it together and our 10 yr old son joins in (though he apparenlty needs to work on his stamina! LOL)

If you can do it 30 days straight, let me know!!! We did two days, took a day off, did it a few days, took a day off. Then moved to different exercises due to family emergencies and then vacation with LOTS of walking...and now we are back on the Shred. I intend to try to do 10 straight days of level 1 (starting today) and…

Good for you!!! I had to buy new "unmentionables" and will have to get new jeans soon. My pants hang off me even worse than before. I wore a pair of pants yesterday w/o feeling embarassed! It's a journey. Congrats for your awesome success...and your mum too!

I have destroyed (DESTROYED) my ankle. Most days I can barely walk, but I have modified this workout and it is AMAZING. Do the best you can and, despite Jillian's insistence that 400 lb people can do jumping jacks and there is no modification, I am not 400 lbs and I can't do a jumping jack. I can't jump at all...I would…

whoopsie...diary is open to friends. If you think you can help, please send me a friend request. I welcome the help but dont' feel comfy opening the diary to EVERYBODY.

Thanks all. I try to eat a relatively low carb diet. My food log is open if anybody wants a look, but please, no harsh comments...judgement is NOT welcome. I am a type 2 diabetic looking for input. I have now sworn off grapes, bananas and oranges as they seem to spike my sugar. I can TELL physically when my sugar is high…

I do exercise, some days more extreme than others. I am finding odd things spike my sugar...that is the frustration.

Very nice!!! thanks for the tip!

wasabi powder!! or curry powder, if you like spicy. if you are in the mood for sweet, cinnamon sugar (more cinnamon than sugar). heck, experiment! Popcorn is still cheap :)

Hi there PiratePiet!! Welcome aboard matey! Feel free to add me as a friend, I love fun characters :) My husband is along on this journey as well. he is lildrmr93. We are all in this together! We are doing this for out son to have parents when he is an adult. He's 10 now and we have got to get this "eating" thing right for…

Wish I had the answer for you. If you are worried about not being able to eat back the calories, I'd change it now and see what it does for you. FANTASTIC job, by the way, if you are ever in Tennessee I have a golden and a husky/lab that would LOVE to walk with you. LOL.

Don't give up! I swore I would not try to lose weight until I was married (stupid idea, btw) so that a man would love me for ME not my body. Well, I am happily married for 12 years now to a great guy. He loves me because I'm just like his mom! LOL..... The right guy is out there. Stop looking for him,start living, and I…

Oh. let me add. I worked in radio for 23 years as an "on air personality" and MOST morning shows (I was never on the morning show except to fill in) will do about anything for ratings. Howard Stern (gag) is the 'model' for most of these jokers. Writing in and complaining will do no good. you want to make a change....get…

Thank you!

Please people. I was 270 pounds when I married my husband. I was told all my life that I was so fat and ugly that nobody would ever love me. I figured I'd jump at the first chance I had to get married. I had 5 marriage proposals before I chose my husband. Oh...i was also 1 month away from turning 30 years old...and yes...I…

you fall down, you GET BACK UP AGAIN. Stress causes autoimmune diseases to flare, but stress is, unfortunately, inevitable in our lives. It's how you respond. You know it will all be taken care of. Reach out to some friends to help you get ready for the move. Hit some yoga classes or some Tai Chi classes and RELAX a bit.…

It is a great work out...HARD if you are not fit yet (and even if you are I hear)....don't watch the whole thing!! just do level one til you are comfy then move to two...then three. I watched one and two before we did them and told my husband "please don't watch three or I will never do one" . LOL..Jillian LOVES a squat.…

ROFLOL.....I Can SOOO relate!

I am 5'4", started my weight loss journey alone at starting weight of 316. Got onto MFP 46 days ago. Lost 10 pounds since joining. Down to 279.9 right now. I don't have any current pics, but have had to buy all new unmentionables :) I need new clothes, but don't have the $$ right now and Goodwill has a shortage of teapot…

low sodium broth with lots of steamed veggies in it. good luck. You know, you could always exercise and get some calories back that way...just a thought.

Do you have a Wii? if so. look into RavingRaymond's Rabbid's .>LOL...you can get your heart rate up playing Wii games, Wii sports, Wii boxing, If you don't have a Wii, but have another system, try Michael Jackson's game (can't remember what it is called) but there is a BUNCH of arm/upper body movement.. just sit in a…

WWWHOOOOO Yeah!! what a feeling!! liberating isn't it. I had to get new underwear and bras too. BEST FEELING EVER!

Kissiefish is a stuffed animal that we gave to our son when he was in the NICU when he was born (he was there for 6 weeks). We could not always be there with him, so we gave him a stuffed animal and named it kissiefish, so when mommy could not be there to give him kissies and cuddles, kissiefish was always there to cuddle…
