Oatmeal, boil eggs at home and take to work, goggle microwaving eggs, yogurt, or protein shake. It's tough eating right/healthy, it's either expensive and/or inconvenient, but with the commitment and determination, we will reach our goals, good luck:smile: :smile:

I agree with the other post. If you have kids and they play sports, while they are practicing, put on your tennis shoes and walk, make use of that time. I'll be honest getting up early is not easy, but when you weigh out the pros and cons, you will do it:wink:

OMG, amazing, you look GREAT!!! CONGRATS!!!

HANG IN THERE and keep your head up. I understand your frustration, but don't give up!!! I'm not sure what your exercise routine is, if you're doing the same thing, maybe your body has hit a plateau. Change things up, walk a little on the treadmill then quick minute run. And of course what you eat will help. Like the…

I sent you a request. I'm 43, anyone else feel free to add me. Logging and keeping track of what you eat and exercise, helps SO much. Good luck to all of us on our "healthy" journey:flowerforyou:

I feel your pain, and since the Olympics have been on, I have noticed most of the female athletes are not big chested...my theory, I'm training for the Olyimpics:wink: :wink: But I agree with the other post, I'd rather be small chested and healthy.

I have curly/wavy/unmanageable hair...I just started using a headband (bough at Walmart) and it really helps. My hair has a mind of its own, so this is a great investment. The headbands come in different colors, and I think 4 or 5 come in a package.

Divorced:drinker: , but "GYM" is my new boyfriend:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Eggs are another source. I was getting tired of hardboiled eggs at work, I found online how to cook an egg in the microwave (you can google it), so this was a good thing. Quick and easy to make at work.

You look GREAT...KUDOS to you!!

That's too funny:laugh: :laugh: , but I gotta give credit, where credit is due...you go, you "multi-tasker":wink: :wink:

I'm in...talk about a challenge, let's do this!!

You look great. I think you hit the nail on the head, MFP is also about being healthy. Before MFP, I weighed 150, didn't think I was "over weight" in October 2011, I joined a gym, started toning up, eating right by counting calories, and lost weight....bonus, bonus, bonus!!!

WOW, you look great, a complete different person. Just SMILE:happy: in the next pic, great accomplishment!!!

Me, I'm guilty!!! I work Mon-Fri 8-5 (full-time job), and have a part-time job (I work at my gym) on nights I work my part-time job, I get up at 4:30 to go exercise. If I don't exercise I feel "unproductive". I ran on the treadmill this am, and was like, this is so boring. I'm to scared to go for an outside run @ 5 am. I…

You look GREAT, you should be proud of yourself!

Here are a few options oatmeal, oats, hard-boiled egg, or cereal. I just tried microwaving an egg added cheese and hot sauce, took 2-3 minutes and was good, since I get burned out on hard boiled eggs. Break 1 egg in a microwave safe bowl and scramble with a fork. cover bowl and place in microwave to 1 - 1 1/2 minutes.

I can definitely see a difference, GREAT JOB!!

I have heard this before and sad...BUT makes me push harder working out and watching what I eat....I WANT THOSE 6-PACK ABS!!!

That's awesome, you are an inspiration, I want to run a 1/2 marathon in November. Good luck to ya!
