Let's be FuelBand friends!
Apparently I'm late jumping on the Nike+ FuelBand wagon, so the search I did had the FuelBand topics from a few months ago. I move more for goals and friendly competition so was wondering if pals out there wanted to be FuelBand friends?! My SN is Si11ySkitt1es. Feel free to add away! Today is my first full day using the…

Protein Overload
I've been logging for a few weeks and have only really been looking at calories. Lately, I've noticed that I keep going over in protein. How bad is that in the long run? I'm having a tough time thinking of things to eat that have less protein...I feel like I don't really eat that much...cereal and milk in the morning,…

Back...again *wince*
So this fall off the wagon was a lot longer than the last time, but being 5'0" and tipping the scale at 200 was not really on my bucket list, so it was time to get moving (and perhaps to show the mean lady at the gym that I could get healthy without her stupid personal training sessions that she made sound like it would be…

miCoach Mobile (Wow?!)
Holy moly, I just downloaded the app (too bad it was just after I finished my Week 8, Day 3 run, it would have been fun to try it out!) and it looks AWESOME!!! I've been on the website setting up my training plan for my 5K run coming up in October. Since I'm still finishing up C25K, I've got my 5K training plan starting…

Took a Fall...
Just as I was feeling all triumphant over finishing off C25K's Week Three, this happens: BAH! I was too busy fooling around with my MP3 player that I didn't see I was veering to the edge of the sidewalk and I pretty much rolled over my ankle right over the edge of the sidewalk and fell down in the most…

I'll show you mine if you show me yours...playlist, I mean!
I'm one of those people that can't get moving unless I have some really good beats to keep me going. I know I shouldn't rely on it so much, but on days where my MP3 player is dead, I can't get as much of a workout in as I could have if I had music with me.... I'm always looking for more songs to add to my list, what gets…

I WANT Wii Active!
Oh my goodness...this is why infomercials love me. I see something once and if you make it sound good enough, I want it and I stay wanting it until I have it!!! AAAARGH! Tell me I don't need to keep buying fitness stuff to get in shape!!! In the last two weeks since I've started, I've gotten so many things just because…

Still can't believe it!
Helloooo...!!!! I'm posting two pounds earlier than I promised myself I had to have before I could post in here, but I'm going to post here anyway!!!! The only thing that I'm having a hard time with is that I REALLY can't believe the ticker! I can't believe any of it! I get on and off the scale about 4 times and even after…

Healthy Eating on a Budget Threads
I'm going to post this here too as I couldn't remember exactly which part of the forum I read it in! I was reading a thread a couple days ago with suggestions and tips on how to keep eating healthy foods while on a budget! It suggested things such as getting roast chicken from wal-mart and having that last over a couple…

Looking for all the threads...
...that dealt with eating healthy on a budget!!! I know I just recently read a thread about this where someone suggested buying a roast chicken from Wal-Mart or Costco and eating that throughout the week etc....if there are any other threads that have tips and suggestions about how to eat healthy on a small budget, that…

Leftover Calories
I went to a Zumba class this evening and only had dinner left to eat after the class. I thought I was already pretty bad today by eating two slices of papa john's pizza, but since I did the workout, I have 952 calories left that the plan is suggesting I eat. Is not eating these leftover calories really going to slow down…

I *hate* being a bridesmaid!
UGH. So what are the chances that I could lose 9-10 inches off my waist by the second week of June? *LOL* OMG, every single bridesmaid experience I've had has sucked because of the dresses. Well, I guess it's really me and the fact that I don't *FIT* into the dresses, so I shouldn't really blame the bridesmaid position.…

Eating after XX:XX pm?
Is there a certain time frame that you won't eat or snack after? I had told myself that I could have a little bit of a treat (skinny cow ice cream sandwich) if I got certain things done (taking puppy for a walk and then bathing him) but now it's just after 9 already. Is it too late and should I just save it for another…

Day 1 on MFP = DONE!
So that's my first day using MFP tools and food and exercise log! I am so LOVING how easy it is to be able to keep track of everything. Granted some of the food calories are estimates or things closest to what I actually ate, but it still gives me a pretty good idea of what I'm intaking. Day 1, I went over my daily caloric…

Weight Loss and "The Pill"
I was wondering if anyone (probably ladies, considering the nature of the topic) would have any information on trying to lose weight while being on birth control. I've tried many times before to start losing weight, but didn't experience very much results and always ended up quitting and my doctor said it's probably due to…
