Bump

I second the Hormel low sodium! Yum!!

I take b-complex for metabolism/energy. I get it from walgreens, they often have buy 1 get 1 specials.

I've read somewhere if sickness is from neck up, you can exercise (head cold, allergies, etc.) If from neck down (chest cold, bronchitis, tummy issues, etc) do not work out. I think you have to listen to your body, your body might need rest or a very easy workout like yoga or walking.

Great recipe

I love, love, love this!!

I started Monday as well! Feel free to add me! I also use the phone app with Pandora cardio station and was very surprised I haven't gotten bored or overwhelmed (my history of workout plans!) I don't have a scheduled 5k yet because I am pretty sure I'm going to repeat week 1 again!

I was never officially diagnosed with pcos, but was given metformin after a miscarriage in 2006, I now have a 4 year old and a 10 month old that were both conceived after losing about 10% of my weight each time and tedious tracking on fertilityfriend. I also used my temperature and an ovuscope to key into the fertility…

I did a challenge last fall and we had one man in our group. He did very well on it and went on to do ripped in 30.

Thanks for all of the feedback! This definitely gives me place to start! As I have over 75 pounds to lose the thought of running in front of someone is horrifying! Right now I run the perimeter of a 6ft privacy fence! (We are on about an acre).

Some of you are mentioning a running store, I'm not sure what you mean? Like foot locker?

It is tough if you have a southern heritage! My homemade biscuits "will make you slap your mama!" Anyway, now I only make them once in a while instead of every day! I also make sure when I have time to cook (saturdays and sundays), I make enough to have at least one more meal of it during the week. Also, the crockpot is my…

Bump!

Staples in my house right now (I'm unemployed, husband is disabled), are peanut butter, brown rice (bulk, not boxed), dried beans (easy and excellent in crock pot), potatoes, great value cheese blocks, great value frozen veggies, pic sweet frozen veggies, chicken and ground turkey, healthy dry cereals. I've also found…

Don't get me wrong, I grew up on the boxed stuff, once I had the 4 year old I started looking into eating healthier and feeding the family healthier. It has probably been more than 3 years since I had the box stuff and have thankfully lost the taste for it. It just amazed me how quickly he shoveled that stuff down and…

I've started getting a lot of stuff off of skinnytaste.com, most of her recipes are pretty down to earth and simple.

I did a september challenge and all three of my boys (2 sons and husband) all were sick at some point or another so I gave up. when I was consistant, i lost like 6 pounds and 8 inches in the matter of about 2 1/2 weeks, so I can't wait to see what the full 30 days will bring! Count me in! Candy

Bumpity bump bump! Yum, I love pumpkin!

I second the good bra, your body may change, may not, but having them flop around too much isn't going to help matters!

I had gd, wish I had thought about using this site. Just follow the dietician or Dr plan and you will be fine and so will your baby. It's tough being preggers and not being able to eat what you want to eat. My baby was early and had some low sugar issues but he's fine now and so am I. Feel free to friend me. I got a lot of…

Dude, SMILE! you've lost 10 years along w/ however many lbs!

I've noticed as long as you are eating over your BMR or 1200 calories, MFP doesn't yell at you with bold red letters. I'm not burning anywhere near what you are, but sometimes, I eat them and sometimes I don't.

OMG! I just about choked on the ice cubes I was crunching! That was simply BRILLIANT!!!

I'm gonna agree with the majority, eat a clean breakfast and lunch, a good workout then enjoy, in moderation the dinner. Have a big salad, then a sensible portion of the chicken and desert. I find that if I deny myself these little pleasures, i just set myself up for a huge binge that will knock me COMPLETELY off the…

I find it interesting to hear the responses of those who were children, now adults, I would say enjoy, but that's not quite the word for something such as this. I worked for a company that had transferred many employees from the new york area, watching them watch their home was the biggest effect on me. I also worked near…

THere are all kinds of articles on line about apple cider vinegar and weight loss. Never tried it myself because I just can't stomach it! ICK!

Ditto on 30ds!
