Another Cholesterol Question
This may have been answered but I didn't see it... is there a minimum cholesterol level you should be shooting for in your food journals? I know the max is 300mg for most but I wasn't sure if there was a minimum. I know some cholesterol is good and has a place in your diet. I'm coming in very, very low... like under 100mg…

Quitters Never Win
I'm back... I let myself get caught up in my new job and made tons of excuses. I know I have all of the tools that I need to succeed and I fully intend to do so. I want to look super hot for my husband's return from the sandbox and hopefully lower my cholesterol at the same time! I don't have time to post much but I'll be…

Protein Bar Question
Alright, MFPers... you haven't let me down thus far and I've got a question for you! I am starting a new job and need a back up protein bar to keep in my purse for "just in case". I don't want to buy something I'm going to hate and end up in a drive through, though. I hate really crunchy bars. I actually love the Fiber One…

Calling all Parents (Advice needed)
Let me start this with: please don't judge me. I'm trying me best to take care of my daughter the best way that I know how! She's 10 months old and came into this world in the 95th percentile for weight (that means she weighed more than 95% of all other babies at similar gestational stages). She is now in the 99th…

We have 2-3 nights we're planning on eating out from June 8 - June 17 and my mother is picking her restaurant of choice on June 2. I have no desire to go out to eat for my own…

YESSSSS!!!!
I stuffed my face today and still didn't hit the maintenance calorie level!!! I went over by 200 calories and thought I had TOTALLY blown it! It looks like my choices are getting smarter even when I'm being stupid! :drinker: Sorry but I'm seriously happy that I enjoyed myself and didn't completely blow it!

Family Photos
My mother-in-law insisted on family photos before my husband deployed and I just got them back. I despise having my picture taken with a passion and let me just say, these will make fabulous before pictures! Looking at them makes me want the "easy fix" but I know that it's not the way to go. Sometimes I just hate how long…

Heart Rate Monitors
I'm kind of shopping for a heart rate monitor and I'd like your takes on which ones to get and which ones to pass up on. If we can afford to buy one right now, it will be my reward for meeting my blog challenge goal (hopefully I'll meet it!) and if not, I'd like to know what I need to be saving up for. I didn't see a…

Cupcake frosting question?
Hi! I'm kind of new here and haven't really posted much yet but I have a question... Does anyone know how many calories are in cupcake frosting? I had a Publix white cake/white frosting cupcake that was just CALLING my name. I ate the frosting and tossed the cake part and was trying to figure out how to count it in my food…
