Help! Where do I measure??
When taking my waste measurement I've read that you should take the measurement right below your belly button, then somewhere else said to measure at the smallest point of your waist (which is above my belly button). There's about a 6" difference between the two. Which is correct?!

I'm Trying the Acai Berry Detox Pills. Have you?
I just received a free 30 day trial of the Acai Berry Detox pills. (Thankfully I read the fine print and canceled my subscription before I was charged $79.98 for the next shipment, lol) But, I'm anxious to see if this really does help as much as people are claiming. If anyone else has tried these, or something similar…

Genesis Today Acai Berry Juice
OMG.. GREAT!! I've been taking the Acai Berry Detox capsules, but I wanted to try the juice. It's more of a puree, so it's kinda thick and rich. But, the taste is great! I bought a 1/2 gallon at WalMart for about $7.50 (If I remember correctly).

Just Bought a Food Scale
Wow.. a 1/4 cup/32grams of dried fruit is a lot less than I thought! HA!! This will be my new bestfriend! I've already measured out all of my ground turkey and some other foods I bought today. I've always tried to measure things with a measuring cup, but it just didn't seem accurate enough. For those interested... I bought…

Uh, Stuck!!
I've been stuck at the same weight for the last week. Which is very discouraging since I lost 8lbs int he first 2 weeks or so. I'm well aware that most of that weight was water weight, but still.. I loved seeing the scale move! I'm still going to the gym 4-5 days per week and staying within my limited caloric intake. So, I…

Ok, so I started doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred last week. I've skipped out on it this weekend, but I'd like to really get serious about it starting tomorrow. I'd love to have people join this thread and post results for motivation! :heart:

My Breakfast Addiction -
Guys, I'm completely addicted to this breakfast. Sometimes I eat it for lunch as well. If you've never tried eggbeaters, I highly recommend them. They have just as much protein as an egg. 1/4 Cup = 1 Large egg, however eggbeaters only have 30 calories per serving as opposed to 70 calories in an egg. Calories Protein Egg…

Food Scale
I'm looking to purchase a food scale, but I don't want to pay an arm and a leg for them. I used to work for Rubbermaid and we sold a ton of them, but they were all commercial products that were ridiculously priced. Does anyone know of any reasonably priced food scales and where did you get it?

I'm so happy with my weigh in!!
So, I jumped on the scales first thing this morning and I'm at 180.0! That's a 7lb loss in ten days! The weight loss in the very beginning is such a great motivation to keep going. My ultimate goal is to be 135lbs by August 7, 2010. ((That's the day of my sister's wedding and I'm the Matron of Honor!)) I'm confident that…

Sugar Free Maple & Brown Sugar Oatmeal?
I bought a box of sugar free maple & brown sugar oatmeal.. I've never thought about it until now, but how does something that contains brown sugar (obviously) be sugar free? LoL

Happy To Be Back! Wahoo!
I made an account back in July 2009, however I didn't really take it serious until October 17, 2009. That is when I started logging everything I ate and all of my exercise. (almost obsessively). I've had great success this go-around and am looking forward to meeting my goals!

West Virginia Motivation!
Since there is no way to search for people by region, I thought I'd see if there were any other people on MFP that are located near me. Possibly for motivation or as a workout partner. I live in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia. ((Inwood to be more exact)) Anyone close by?

Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred
I was going to buy this, then I noticed in on Comcast's On Demand for free! Go to On Demand.. Exercise TV.. 2 Weeks to a New You.. Then it should be there. I just noticed there are a lot of great videos on there. What a tremendous help for those days I may not make it to the gym, or don't have a lot of time to spend there!

10 Day Lemonade Fast // Trainer
Ok, first of all I just wanted to say that I switched Gyms today. I'm going back to Gold's so I can take my 8 month old with me while my daughter is in school. I tried going really late in the evenings after my husband got home and the kids were settled in for the night, but by then, it was too late. I didn't want to leave…

Unused & Unwanted Calories
I'm on a 1200 calorie / day regimen. However, I usually end up having about 300-450 calories left at the end of the day. Is that really going to be unhealthy? I take a green tea pill to help control my cravings. Even if the pill doesn't really work, it makes me thing it does. Haha. So, I eat when I'm hungry. I have 3 meals…

Chicken Breast Confusion!
I've noticed quite a big different on the calories between different "chicken breasts" in the database. Although I would love to just find the lowest and choose it, I want to be accurate. For instance, I bought a huge pack of skinless/boneless chicken breast from WalMart and can't figure out what the calories would be for…
