I like the #2 pair! It's a nice change-up from the 'all-black' style... And WHAT a sweet husband of yours to keep a dress that he loved and knew you would fit back into! And what a fit it is! You look fantastic!

Sounds good! I've really only picked up swimming a year or so ago- mostly for exercise- so the speed work will be a fun change! So- that being said- I'm still learning the 'lingo'... a 4X100 free at the fastest interval you can make... do you want our fastest time out of all 4 sets or an average? Or- do you want us to list…

Carbonated water and flavored liquid Stevia... I usually do a Root Beer flavored Stevia and carbonated water- close your eyes- tastes almost the same! No- it's never exactly as good as the original- but it curbed my soda cravings. There are a ton of flavored liquid Stevia bottles out there- I got mine at Whole Foods...…

i'm IN! I swim 3-4 times a week, usually for about an hour each. depending on what kind of drills or workout my workout buddy and I do- we usually average about 4K yards per swim... Friend me and we'll work out the details?

athletic tape stays on much longer than band-aids. you'd want to put something like pre-wrap or a band-aid under the athletic tape to avoid tearing at the skin when you remove the athletic tape.

Woot Woot! Great job- keep it up! You look Mah-velous!

Doctor, PRONTO. And don't exercise until you see one.

Actually- I just donated blood yesterday at my gym! They were there- I was there... I figured- why the heck not? So after I swam, I went and donated... I just had to consume some juice that I normally wouldn't drink because of the sugar content... and a couple of cookies. I just made sure I logged the food in my tracker.…

Great news! I love Express!

way to go!

My personal rule is to never EVER talk about work on my social networking pages. It's strictly off-limits. I'm friends with co-workers online and we all make it a rule not to discuss work issues. I think if someone is disparaging their company online- it can harm that person's reputation as well as the company. It's a…

I love Scooter's too! but I have a skinny vanilla latte... about 130 calories... some days I get it blended, iced or just drink it hot.

What a great feeling to know you can resist such temptation! Congrats- that's a great NSV! BTW- egg white, veggie sausage and wheat bread fold over sounds good! :)

I was a size 14 on my wedding day (tall- but still!) and all of my bridesmaids were a size 2 to a 6... one of the size two's was even pregnant... needless to say- some guests jokingly accused me of starving my bridesmaids! Yah- like I'd starve them and not myself? Haha. I will ALWAYS be bigger than those girls because they…

Next time tell her... "Guess what, I can lose the weight... you'll always be an unhappy, ugly person".

What is it like to dry your jeans? LOL- I want to know! I'm one dryer-load away from having to buy new clothes! That is FANTASTIC NEWS! Keep up the good work!

Welcome! You'll find a lot of great people here and support!

Brush your teeth before drinking a can... That should stop it... :) Coke is like Orange Juice for me- but after I brush my teeth- it tastes awful!

Total victory! Get yourself a couple new bras! Hold those girls up proud!

yep! I do the dannon (i think it's now Oikos brand still by Dannon though) and i add just a bit of honey.. takes the edge off. I wasn't a fan of the Chobani brand- but really like the new Dannon/Oikos brand.

depending on how overweight you are, weights around your ankles may be unsafe for your joints. You can damage your knees, ankles by adding weight and then the stress of walking/jogging/running with the weight. Find some strength training activities at the gym. If you really want to do some weights while you walk- fill a…

Nice job! I'm just starting on MFP- so I'm learning the lingo! I do my first self-weigh in on Monday... so hopefully I'll have an on-scale victory- Go get yourself some new pants to celebrate!

make sure you eat beforehand and you can nurse your vodka drink through the night.. Or- tip the bartender well and ask him to make you a club soda with a twist of lime. Just make sure your drink looks the same as your 'alcohol' drink you started the night with. Easy fake-out. Or- you just let everyone know that you're…

I've got the same problem.. If I can't do it RIGHT, I don't want to do it at all... I'm learning to take 'small bites' as in- if I can get to the gym and give it everything for the 20 minutes I'm there, I feel much better about myself. 20 minutes spent sweating is better than 20 minutes spent eating. I am also a…

Yes- I have found though that some of the vanilla vodkas have a bit different flavor... So- Smirnoff and Stoli are going to get you closest to a cheesecake flavor... Absolut Vanilla tastes different to me. Vanilla vodka and root beer tastes like a root beer float. Argh! but not good on the calories! LOL
-
former bartender here: Not sure on the calorie content- but BLUE Raspberry Vodka (UV brand) with a light lemonde tastes like the red/white/blue bomb pops that we all used to get from the ice cream man as a kid. it's a refreshing summer drink! fill glass with ice: 1 or 2 oz of vodka, fill the rest of the glass with…

the drops are so diluted that you are probably only getting a micro-fraction (yes- a micro-fraction... no idea if that's a real quantity- but wanted to convey how LITTLE of the actual stuff) of the real stuff. It is also coupled with a 500 calorie a day diet. I did this diet and followed it to a T for the 30 day time…

Thanks for the Tall info and the nutrition info! My People, My People! :smile:
