Smoothies

High Sugars
I have been drinking smoothies every day for almost a week and I have gained 4ish pounds. Are sugars from fruit just as bad as sugars from candy and others things non fruit?

HELP
HELP!!! Starting next week it will be just me and my 3 year old son for 4 days at a time. I need to come up with some good recipes for 1.5-2 people that are fairly kid friendly and HEALTHY. Keep in mind, I still haven't quite mastered cooking for less than 6ish people.

How to cut calories...
Make your plate of food and then eat it in front of your child. If they are anything like my 3 year old they will help you eat it. lol

Anyone else...
Wish they had taken before pics of random body parts? I was getting a pedicure the other day and I started wishing I had taken before pics of my ankles and from my knees down. Because (with the exception of my new scar) my legs look amazing from the knee down and my ankles are beautiful! lol

I started my journey on MFP in May this year weighing 286.5 I have lost 31.5lb so far. PLEASE ignore the black twist tie on my nose... my son wanted to "tie" my nose and my mom thought it would be funny to take a picture. But its ok... made for a VERY good face shot! I didn't have any good pics for the "before" shot at my…

Lack of comments
Small rant... I find it very sad that HUNDREDS of people will comment on someones post about losing TONS of weight, but only a small handful of people comment on those posts where its very little. I know that its exciting to see those who have lost more make their posts, but I feel like it could make people lose motivation…

Hit my first goal!
When I joined MFP on May 11, 2012 my plan was to lose 30lb before my brother comes homes at the end of September. I had lost 20lb before July and then I didn't have any more PE classes at school and I got worried that I wouldn't be able to do this. Well I have! I have lost 30.2lb in 3 months and 2 days. My next goal is…

NSV
I went out last night with some people I haven't seen in 12 years. Had a BLAST. But the NSV is that my cowboy boots fit!!! I haven't been able to wear them since before I got pregnant a little over 4 years ago. Also, I have to get my rings resized because they are all too big!
-
Crunches
I have 2 18inch titanium rods in my spine. I cant bend well enough to do "regular" crunches. I can, however, lift my hips/butt off the floor and can feel the "crunch". Is it the same or even close?
-
NSV
I have been married less than a year and I already have to get my rings resized. I am going to wait until I reach my goal to do it tho. As annoying as it is to have m y rings loose, I LOVE IT!!

2 NSV's!!
Got in my car today, put on my seat belt, and then leaned over to turn the radio up... MY SEAT BELT MOVED WITH ME!!! I have been at "the end of the seat belt" for at least a year. NSV #2 Went to the dr today and for the first time in 4 years (since before I got pregnant) my BP was 108/76!! I have been in the high 120s and…

Knees
I started my weight loss journey about a month ago... maybe a little more. I have lost just over 11 pounds and I am already feeling better. Chronic cough is gone, I stand taller, it doesn't kill my back as bad as it used to just to do dishes. But my knees are starting to hurt pretty bad. They hurt before, but now it almost…

good foods to...
eat when sick? I won't be working out as much the next couple days while I battle what ever this crap is that I woke up with this morning. Looking for some low calorie low sodium foods.
-
I can touch my toes...
800+ calories burned today! Also, that inch off my waist that I lost over the last 2 weeks feels like nothing compared to finding out that while sitting and stretching my legs I can grab the toes on both feet!! I can also touch the floor when I bend over with my feet shoulder width apart. I couldn't do either of those 2…

How important is...
Potassium? My MFP app on my phone says that I should be getting 3500mg a day and for the last month I have only had 4 days where I got over 1000 and only 1 of those 4 was over 1500. Is it important enough for losing weight that I should work to get more?
-
Yet another face comparison post...
I know its not alot of weight, but can you tell? *edited with a better, more clear set of pictures.
-
My first...
10lbs are gone!!! I got on the scale this morning and I'd lost another 2.7 pounds making my total weight loss so far 10 lbs in 3 weeks! I wanted to cry!! I know I still have about 117 or so more to get to my goal, but those 10 are huge to me.
-
Is it ok....
To take 2 Diurex/water pills to help get rid of a meal you are about to eat that could very well be loaded with sodium?
-
Couple weeks
I have only lost 7ish pounds, but I think I see a change. I know I feel it!!

500 calories left...
I have had 2.5 hours of sleep in the last 33 hours. I keep eating because I know that my body is working extra hard to keep me going. Dinner time is almost here. Think its ok if I go over my calories for today? I only have 500 left and I'm STARVING... BAD!
