I'M 5'3" I'm currently 148, goal of about 130 ish. Mostly just want to be back in the dress clothes I bought right after I had my 2 year old. I lost all the weight after I had her then when she was about 1.5 I gained about 25# back. I dont know really what happend but I think it was finally my hormones getting straitened…

Ok I know we have all heard it but...... Muscle weighs more than fat by inch. also, got this off of someone's MFP post one time but it is very true..... Kitchen scales are more implortan than bathroom scales.:happy: Same time of day weigh ins are best, it doens't have to be first of the day but just same time of day (after…

I'm not a huge fan either. There is a small town bakery in a close by town called "Tasty Pastry" oh man..... those are the best ever!!!!!

BUMP TO THE TOP!!! I need some energy foods too please.

The angels sang when I read this..... Can I borrow it on some of my pages please?

I have to be to work by 630am, I live 20 min from town, and I have to drop my 2 year old off at my mom's before work because daycare doesn't open till 7:30. Mom is a lifesaver or I'd be sunk. I have her drop our stroller off at daycare in the morning w/ the kiddo. When I get off work I make the half mile walk to go get…

Thank you for the def. The other letters are TTDE? also, do I need to take this into account as to how much I get to eat?

WOW!!!! I needed to read this today!!!!! Would you mind if I copied it to a couple forums and to facebook so my friends can read it please?

walk/ run. i know it sounds to easy but it burns calories and well is healthy. Up hill works those areas of intrest too.

It totally sounds like muscle. Any time you use your muscles they are strengthened. Strengthened = growing if done regularly. 1 lb of fat is far bigger than 1 lb of muscle. The more muscle you have the more fat you burn so........ that all falls into the equasion.

I'm pretty new but my biggest hurdle was just honestly tracking what I was actually eating (not eating a hand full of chips and "forgetting" to log it). Then you can really see where your cuts need to happen. Remember - keeping your blood sugars consistant will help you keep processing your calories (that 6 meals/ 3 meals…

Try making extra of the meals you make on the other days of the week, freeze in serving size containters and nuke when you get home. - still a frozen dinner but not as much sodium and all that stuff. Plus if you make 2 extra servings of the other foods, it will not take long and you can have something you didnt have…

Do you prep the pudding per box instructions or do you just mix the powder with the pineapple?

Do you drain the pineapple? Is the 170 w/ or w/o the cool whip. Sounds sooooooo good!!!

Its not failing! Its being human. I track but dont watch the bottom line on the weekends. They are my days to eat the foods I want. For your sweet tooth, there are ALOT of forums that have some low cal sweet treats that you can curb the sweet w/o eating your whole days cals. A few things I have found that help me w/ my…

DEAD ON!!!!!!!! I started just tracking and found I really didn't need 8 meatballs I could live with 4 and some side. Or one pc of chicken and not 3. I've list 10 lbs in just 2 weeks and I feel great!!!! I never at veggies till I was an adult (nope my parents didn't even make me take that one profunctory bite) but now even…
