can't seem to get below 150...
I started trying to loose weight almost 2yrs ago and lost about 85lbs. I joined MFP that winter because I saw I was getting back into some of my old habbits and had put on a few lbs, and when I was only 15-20 lbs from my goal I wanted to turn that around as soon as possible. I maintained my weight all winter, but never…

Running gear? water bottles?
I have been running for a few months now and am going for longer distances-slowly, but it's happening;). After getting sick after running one hot evening, I figured that I was dehydrated and should really be carrying water with me. How do you carry your water on a run? Has anyone tried one of the little water bottles that…

How to loose that last 15-20lbs!
I had lost over 85lbs in about 8-9mos and then everything came to a stop. I joined MFP to give me the help and support I needed to loose that last 20...but I'm just not loosing. I'm 32 yrs old, 5 5', and weigh anywhere from 153-158 lbs. I just go back and forth-back and forth between 153 and 158. It is frustrating. I have…

No gym access...how do I do strength training at home?

I know I need to do more strength training, but how do I go about doing this at home? I also have a tiny house and no room for much equiptment. Any…

Why did I not try savory oatmeal earlier!
After looking for new ways to make my oatmeal, I kept stumbling on savory recipes. I thought I would give it a try and it opened my eyes to a whole new way to enjoy oatmeal! Cook the desired type of oatmeal in water or broth. Sautee some onion, green pepper, and mushrooms in a pan until they start to soften...but still…

Anyone here use Leslie Sansome videos?
If so, how do you enter things like this in your exercise journal? If you do one that includes upper body strength training and carry 5lb weights through the whole thing...what then? I often do exercises that I'm not quite sure how to enter. Thanks.

LOVING Almond Milk!
I have never been a fan of milk and only use it in cooking. I had never thought of trying a milk substitute because I just assumed I would not like it. I bought a container of Vanilla flavored Almond Milk so I could try this almond smoothie recipe and I loved the almond milk!!! I know there are a lot of options out there…

Healthy BMI!
I remember well the day that my BMI went from being "obese" to "overweight". I was so happy! I told my parents when I saw them that day...GUESS WHAT, I'm no longer obese-I'm just FAT!!! Lol, it was a good feeling. Now I am happy to say that I have crossed out of "overweight" to "healthy". I still have around 15lbs to go…

Anyone else have complexion problems after loosing?
I have always had a great complexion...UNTIL NOW! I have lost 80lbs in the last year and feel great about myself, except for the fact that my skin has gone downhill bigtime since loosing weight.
