Dairy, artificial sweetener, soy and legume free
Hello, all! I am looking for some fellow limited-diet friends here on MFP. These restrictions are new to me and I am still trying to get my arms around it. I have used MFP before and loved the support and accountbility. I have recently gained about 10 lbs and would like to lose it, but my main goal is to get my eating…

Reevaluating my goals---friends/advice wanted.
I am re-assessing my weight and fitness goals and have come to the unwelcome conclusion that I am probably going to have to change the way I eat to reach my new goals. When I first started on MFP in August I had a very vague goal of "losing weight", and a goal weight in mind, based on how I had looked at other (younger)…

WOMAN STABS MAN IN NECK WITH BREADSTICK AT OLIVE GARDEN
Just kidding....but since a few of you had asked, I thought I would put up a quick follow up to my pre-dinner rant the other night. Here is the link to that, if you care! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/430849-kicked-out-of-olive-garden-perhaps I have been trying to come up with something clever to post here, but I…

Kicked out of Olive Garden? Perhaps.
Having dinner w my hubbys family tonight. All well and good except his cousin's asshat of a husband is going to be there. He makes some sort of sneaky, subtle, snarky comment about my weight or how I look every time we see him. Every.Single.Time. My husband has even talked to him about it. At my largest, I was a size 12,…

2nd try...Is it just me? (NSV w/Pic.) Pic working this time
Or is this looking like the beginnings of a pretty toned arm? And is that start of a defined trapezius muscle I spy? I just noticed this in a class the other day.....so cool! I am surprised that I care about this, and even more surprised to be posting it. The scale hasnt really been working in my favor recently, so I am…

Progress with Pictures
So here is my "before" picture. This picture was taken on the day that I knew I had to do something to change. Those pants were so tight and uncomfortable that day, I was completely miserable. They were my fat pants, and I could barely button them. Here I am, 4 months and 11 lbs lighter. Not a huge amount lost, and it…

Gym NSV
Took a kickboxing class for the first time today and I was pretty sure it was going to be an epic fail. Like really, I would not have been surprised if I hurt either myself or someone else. Not only was it fun (?) but I kept up and didnt hit or kick anyone, myself included! After that class I did my regular muscle toning…

Not one, but TWO NSV's yesterday!
I have been a little frustrated with the speed of my weight loss. I know it is my fault because I have days at a time when I get off track and the scale reflect that pretty accurately. HOWEVER, I had two great NSV's yesterday and am still riding high. First, my almost-16 year old daughter and her best friend to the Y with…

Tofu Shiratake Noodles...Help
I bought some of these yesterday and want to make them for lunch. A few weeks ago I saw a couple of delicious recipes posted on here, under the title "Delicious meal for under 200 calories" or something like that. It had the noodles, some diced steak and a few other ingredients. Like an idiot I did not bookmark or comment.…

Looking for friends with sense of humor!
I am fairly new to MFP, and am really enjoying myself here so far. I am looking to expand my support network, but here's the deal...I have checked out a lot of the message boards and posts and see that there is a LOT of drama on here! I just want some folks who get humor and sarcasm, and want to be motivated and motivating…

Former South Beacher, trying something new
Hello all! I am new to calorie counting, having always done the South Beach Diet when looking to lose weight. However, I found that giving up bread and pasta for the foreseeable future was not something I could ever live with for very long. And, lets face it, I am pushing 40 and need to make some lifestyle changes rather…
