New Years Eve Drink and Snack Idea's?
I plan on drinking this New Years Eve, since I was unable to really last year since we had very religious friends over. This year I plan on having a cheat day and I realize I will gain, but I worked hard and didn't drink on Christmas, so I am going to have my one fun day this year! So do any of you know of any healthy or…

Slightly TMI question.. sorry!
Does it count as water intake for the day if you throw it back up? And if this is an obvious silly question I appologize, I'm not feeling well enough to think for myself right now! I'm not feeling so good today and trying to calm myself by staying hydrated, but if I throw up, should I reset my water cup counter back down…

What is the most thoughtful/ best gift you got for any holid
If there is another topic about this sorry! I just read through the "worst present" post and made me want to ask.. What is the BEST or most thoughtful present you have ever been given for any holiday? Mine would have to be a tie between 2 things my husband did for me... The first when we were still dating he took me all…

Does missing a few days of 30 Day Shred hurt?
I just started doing Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and I planned on doing it 30 days in a row, no break, but I just realized, I can't do that. I go with my husband every 4th week on the Semi he drives for 3-4 days, usually Tues-Thurs, sometimes into Fri. I am going to try to do it on Tues before I leave and Thurs/Fri when…

Anyone know anything about Greek Restraunts?
I may be going to a Greek Restraunt in the next few days/weeks, not sure when... but I have never been before and I am looking forward to it. I love Greece and plan on visiting one day and although I know an American restraunt can't capture exactly what they enjoy there, it is better than nothing. So, calories aside (I…

Walmart-Laughing Cow Cheese
Anyone know where in Walmart I can find Laughing Cow Cheese to try it? I checked the cheese section.. and found nothing, I checked the unrefridgerated area with shredded parm, nothing. I looked at the deli stuff, nothing. Walmart.com says our store carries it.. but I can't find it, anyone know?

Is it true if you don't do it you loose it?
Sorry for the title, it amused me, lol... anyways... So with winter coming, I have a question... If you stop running will you have problems come next spring? I plan to run as long as possible, but I get sick easily and sooner or later I'll have to stop... My treadmill only goes up to 4.0 which isn't jogging for me.. just…

Canned Chicken?
I was trying to find ideas for non refridgerated lunches.. without having to cook either for a 4 day semi journey. I can across canned chicken... I don't like tuna.. and I never ate any kind of canned meat.. so was wondering... is canned chicken safe to eat right out of the can mixed with something else? What would taste…

Suggestions for non refridgerated food on trips?
I have been going on the road with my husband 3-4 days out of each month since he started his new job. We have been 2 times so far and so far both times have been a disaster on food. Apparently when all you do is drive (we are in a semi) all you think about is food... eep!! So, I have been racking my brain on a solution…

I am thinking of upping my net calories... what are your tho
I had my calories set for 995 goal each day and I have had it that way for months now... I would eat at LEAST 1200 a day, because I would force myself to exercise at least the 205 a day to add up to 1200, but I found myself struggling lately to exercise at least 205 everyday/feeling not full at the end of the day. I have…

I have been dieting for well over a year and although I had my weeks where I had my wieght drop 3-4 lbs, it's never been anything quite like this.

30 Day Shred?
I just got the video and am going to start it this week or next... I haven't popped it in yet.. but I have a question... I am something of a schedule freak... so my question is.... how many days a week is the video designed for and approximately how long does it take to finish one workout? (I know it can vary just trying…

Polar HRM Confusion?
I have a Polar HRM and I love it, been using it for months now. Every time I loose 10 or so pounds I change my weight and retake the HRM test where it says what range you should stay in. Everytime I retake the test it goes up.. from like 115 on the low end slowly up. Before today it was at 137-153 for weeks. Today I put in…

I need a new video or something to try?
Well considering all the holiday's coming up and me being out of the house alot, I might have to wait to start 30 day shred until a month or two (I just realized you have to do it all 30 days in a row or close, silly me thinking it was 3-4 days a week).. but I need something in the mean time to start doing strength..…

Looking for bread recipes, anyone have any?
I have always loved bread.. rolls, biscuits, bread in general. I fell in love with wheat bread when I tried it... I decided I wanted to try to make my own bread at home... a loaf, biscuits, rolls, anything really.. but when I look online I keep finding "fattening" recipes, so I thought I would ask here.. anyone have any…

Anyone have a strange/annoying story about what happens when
I didn't know where else to put this so I thought I'd put it here.. I posted it on my page a few days ago and got little responses, so I thought I would through it out to all of the community. So this happened to me a few days/ week ago (taken from my page so it might sound kinda awkward): "So my neighbor literally stalked…

Heartburn or Gull Bladder Stones?
A few days ago I woke up in the middle of the night having intense heartburn.. felt identical to it; have had it before, on the left side of my chest under my boob. I tried to take Tums and it didn't work after 30 minutes I took Rantidine, 40 minutes later I took some Tyenol.. and it didn't work. It started at 2 am. I…

Eggs
I NEVER got over my cholestral, it's never been a problem for me... until last Friday I ate an egg sandwich without realizing it has 210/300 daily cholestral in it! I decided not to eat eggs again if that's the case... but I got to thinking.. there are eggs in alot of things.. like the pancakes I want to make... and I am…

Tattoo's
I am dying to get my first tattoo.. a XII on either my ankle, lower back or shoulder, haven't decided yet.. I have wanted it a long time but was always afraid of it messing up because I was gaining weight. Well now, I'm on track and I don't plan on gaining weight and I want to get to my goal and stay there. My question…

I am leaving on vacation on Friday and will miss my official one year on here (357 days as of this moment), so I wanted to put a post up to celebrate a bit early! I promise when I get back from vacation and settled in in a week or two I will post a "longer" success story with pictures of my progress so far and how I got…

Double chin?
I had a double chin and I noticed in pictures I lost it a few months ago.. how excited I was! Then I went and dyed my hair blonde.. now it's showing back up in all the pictures? I haven't gained weight.. I've only lost... so why is it back? It makes no sense!
