No, they likely won't fit for long, but hey, bet they come in smaller sizes!

Welcome! You've come to the right place. Everyone here is motivated and by surrounding yourself with likeminded people will help you reach your goals! Never give up, no matter how difficult the journey. Congratulations on your achievements thus far....this is only yhe beginning :~)

One of my favs is: Dymatize Strawberry Creme protein powder- 1 scoop 1/2 Cup Blue Diamond unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk 1/2 Cup sliced strawberries 1/2 medium banana 1/4 Quaker Oats (uncooked) 4 ice cubes Blend

That is a HUGE NSV! Congratulations; this will be the first of many!

Making it to the gym 3 times this week, AND planning on going Friday.

I'm certain many of them are uncomfortable because you've done something and they KNOW they need to, but don't have the determination. I'd not mention wanting to lose more, just smile and politely say that you feel so much better now that you've taken control of your eating and life, you only wish they would too! And from…

For May: I want to workout 4X a week I am 5 pounds away from my first goal and want to see the scale at that goal by May 31 I want to "clean" up my eating Get more and better sleep

Boneless, skinless chicken breast is a very good source and be fixed a thousand ways. Also egg whites are loaded with protein too. Do you eat fish, shrimp or other sea foods? They are also high in protein.

I took a quick look at your foor diary and as other have written you are eating too much processed food. I love cheese too, but it now a treat rather than a snack or part of my daiky diet. My percentages are 40% cards, 35% protein and 25% fat. I also track sugar and fiber. You can change your settings by going to settings,…

Instead of oatmeal since you have a texture "thing" try Cream of Wheat, much finer consistency or Farina, anothger hot cereal option. I often make omelets and use 1 whole egg and 2 egg whites. Spray the pan with cooking spray and get rather hot before pouring in the eggs. Add last night's left over veggies, a small amount…

OK, so what are we waiting for? I am on usually every day; have lost close to 30 and have 17 to go. I will be away next week, but will still have limnited acccess, so add me too!

This is a breakfast I really like and it is less than 300 calories. 1 whole egg and 2 egg whites...beat. 1 Tablespoon of shredded Parmasan Cheese 6 cooked asparagus spears 1 Tablespoon of medium hot salsa Heat skillet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Pour in eggs. Cook until the top is damp. Add cheese and…

I notice you have no calories for the tangerines. They do have a value, I think it is around 40 calories each, search foods and you will find them listed with all values. Was your potato plain, or did you add butter or sour cream? It is listed as just the potato. Little things add up, you'd be surprised! If you find you…

I don't think I could live long enough to learn to love sardines, but, since you want to try...how about covering them in dijon mustard? That should mask to taste.

I love, love, love Protizyme Peanut Butter Cookie protein powder. It really does taste like peanut butter cookies. I am certain you can get it on line. I also Like Matrix Mint Cookie protein powder. I mix either with water (you could use milk) for a quick snack or even meal substitute. They come in 5 pound containers.…

Once the scan is complete you can adjust the serving size. If the full package is 1 serving and you only ate half, you can change the serving size to 0.5 and then log it. I don't know if your phone will allow adjustment, but you can adjust it via computer.

I have heard that so often "muscle weights more than fat." I have always wanted to find out how 16 ounces of fat weights less than 16 ounces of muscle. Not trying to be a smart a@@, but I have never been able to understand how that could be.

Do NOT weigh yourself daily. You will drive yourself insane. Pick a day of the week and time (I weigh Monday every other week around 9:30 AM). Don't think about the scale until that day and time. Keep logging your foods. Change your goal on MFP to 40% carbs, 35% protein and 25% fat. Try to keep sugars at less than 30…

There is a company named Malibu C that offers awesome products for hair and skin. They have a swimmer's shampoo and conditioner, and also a swimmer's skin care line of products. All of their products are fully guaranteed and are gluten free and vegan. They may be a little more pricey than some of the otghers out there, but…

Sugar has 4 calories per gram. Cut out 10 grams a day and you've cut out 40 calories per day, or the equivalent of slightly over 4 pounds per year by doing nothing more than reducing your sugar.

Today is a new day, yesterday is done, filed, over, forgotten. So, a fresh start. You cannot undo yesterday, but you CAN make today the best you can! Do not get on the scale until Friday at the earliest. You know what to do, and you have done it, so, just keep doing what you know how to do and move on. Every one of us had…

I've lost both in the rib area and also the cup. I was a "d": coming out of it and now a "d" actually fits, and I am down about two inches in the rib area. So, I guess it all depends on the person from what I have read here, it seems we are all experiencing the weight loss differently.

Anyone who wants to add me feel free to do so. I still have a way to go, but have dropped 26 of those dreaded 40 pounds. This is a difficult journey and the more the merrier!

You will see the drop about 2 days in, and it will reoccur every cycle. As women, we are built different and our bodies react different. You are probably also a little constipated, and that too will pass (no pun intended). DO NOT let the numbers on a scale control your life; let the feel of you clothes dictate how you are…

That was my issue when I first started. I was always a water drinker, so what I did was purchase a really good quality protein powder and mix it with my water three times per day. It adds 23-25 grams of protein 3 times a day and anywhere between 120-150 calories per serving. Protien help keep you full so you are not…

I like Dymatize Nutrition. Each serving has about 6 carbs and 20+ grams of protein. My favs are chocolate peanut butter and strawberry creme. This company has many, many flavors, but the two mentioned are my favorites. I will also use the vanilla blending it with fresh fruit for a smoothie.

I am from the United States. I live on Cape Cod in a small town (they all are on Cape Cod). So far this winter Massachusetts (at least where I am) has not been very cold. Winds are high today, but it was in the upper 40s.

Amazing, you should be so proud of you accomplishment!

I may not be funny, but I haven't found a food I don't like....and that IS the problem.
