You look very young....do it and you will look good for a long time. I'm 44 and wished I would have done this 15 years ago, so I could have more fun with my kids and husband.

What is the walk slim and where can it be found. To try to make my walks on the treadmill not such a bore I have strapped my dvd player on it, and I watch movies in 30-45 min. intervals....but music always make me move a little faster.

I would think you should eat more.....the dietician was actually thinking about increasing mine to 1700 cal. daily but I told her some days I have problems eating 1500. So she gave me another month and in December I will go back to see what she tells me. My goal is 1 lb. a week, don't want to loose to fast that it has…

When they tell you to just breath into a tube, you think....how hard can that be??? With pinching the nose off and not breaking the seal your lips have on the tube is what is difficult. It doesn't hurt in any way, it's a matter of having to calm yourself down to make it through the time. I was told it could take as little…

I also had this test done, but my situation is opposite...mine was running low. So the doctor put me on 1500 cal. a day, but on days I exercise I can do 1700. This tool has put me so in check with what is going on with my body. Also, after finding MFP, this website has also made me aware of what I am consuming. The best…

:happy: and they think Sugar is really dumb.....lol

I would actually like to try that one....please share it!!:love:

Wow!! Mondays are my crazy days...have been away from the computer and was shocked with all the suggestions. I love it!! Someone suggested the recipe section....I checked that, and only found sweet things...must have looked in the wrong place. Thanks for the suggestions....no sweet potatos please....just haven't learned to…

I did that myself this weekend. Had worked out, had enough calories left over, but still couldn't bring myself to indulge.....call me crazy.....but I want to see more movement in my scale. I have my mind set to do it this time!!!:flowerforyou:

I am looking for something to make for Thanksgiving that is different from the normal green beans or corn. Does anyone have a vegetable recipe to share? Also, would like it to be somewhat healthy...I'm doing great with the calorie counting and my mother in law just found out she is diabetic. Thanksgiving and Christmas…

I live in a rural area as well. We do have a small grocery but they charge you double for not having to travel so far...lol I just discovered those "Green Bags", shown on TV. It claims it keeps vegetables and fruits fresher longer. I bought them at Wal-Mart.....I thought if they didn't work, at least I tried........they…

My dietician told me it was ok to have fast food every once in awhile, as long it doesn't put you way over in calories, or whatever you are watching, for that day. She told me if I wanted fast food....plan my day for it. So what I do, is figure at the beginning of the day what I want to get, and work the rest of the days…

I agree with Marla...you have to want it for YOU!!! Don't even think about doing it for having another baby. Do it for YOU!! Two years ago my husband told me, he needed to loose weight and that we were both going to do the Adkins Diet.....well he lost his weight real quick it took me awhile to loose 40 pounds, but you know…

2031 plus my 14 = 2045

I have only been a member for a month now. When I started, I was tested for my metabolism and it was found to be running low...no surprise, so is the thyroid. When this test was done last month I was put on a 1500 calorie plan, and was told to keep track of EVERYTHING I ate. The first couple of days, it drove me nuts…

Congratulations!! I am new here also, a week to be exact. I am finding that if I log my foods it totally keeps me on track. It also helps me plan ahead if I know there is something I want to have for another meal. I lost 10#'s before joining, only 2 last week, but hey, a loss is better than a gain. More power to you and…

I have been in the same boat. I decided I needed answers to why I cannot loose weight. I have thyroid issues as it is, but I am regulated with meds. So my doctor did a test on my metolism and found out it is low. The test shows I only burn 1700 cal. in a day, so I am on a 1500 cal. plan. Finally I have answers and hope, I…
