Making A Come Back!
Hello Everyone! I'm Shop! I've been back and forth with working out for years. I can't even count how many times I've stopped and started again. I started up a year and a half ago all to get off for summer break (I'm a teacher) and get lazy enjoying my days off. I'd lost a total of 14 inches in roughly 2 months with some…

Happy Hump Day!!!
For many of us it's hump day. For me I guess you can say that as well since I don't have to work this weekend. Unfortunately, I can't put any cool gif up that would be deemed worthy of my darling MFP'ers cause work doesn't allow me to do a lot on their computers. But I do have a very nice quote from the man himself, Mr.…

Baking
Hey guys, I like to bake, you know, cakes, cupcakes, muffins etc, when I get the chance. But as of late since I started watching what I eat, I don't make any of that stuff anymore. I met a guy at GNC who was talking about his roommate using all of his healthy stuff to make healthy "junk" foods, cakes, cookies etc. She was…

Protein Powders for Women
Hey guys, I was, up until last week, using Jillian Michaels' Whey Protein. But I've been looking everywhere and can't find it in any store anymore. It took me roughly 6 months to get through the two giant tubs I had. And now even looking online everywhere shows it on their site but says "Currently not available." So I'm…

Xbox 360 Kinect Activites
Hey guys, I have several Xbox 360 Kinect games that I play regularly, Kinect Adventures, Kinect Sports. I also have Dance Central (all), Zumba Fitness Rush and U-Play Your Shape.

Almonds v Almond Milk v Lactose Free 2% Reduced Fat Milk
Just to start, I never use regular milk. I barely drink it anymore...only in my cereal (and that's the Lactose Free 2%). But don't use the stuff outside of that. If I come across a recipe that requires it, I might use it or I'll find something else to cook. Second, I have smoothies most every day for breakfast. I use…

T.G.I.F.
Morning all, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I have to work Saturday and Sunday, but I do get to go out Saturday night to a wine tasting that is for a charity for animals here in Vegas. It's call One Drunk Puppy Wine Tasting. I know right, that's just a funny name. But the proceeds are for a very good cause.…

Hi
Don't want anything. Just want to say hello to everyone. And leave some inspiration. "Life is a song - sing it. Life is a game - play it. Life is a challenge - meet it. Life is a dream - realize it. Life is a sacrifice - offer it. Life is love - enjoy it." ~ Sai Baba Namaste, Nika :flowerforyou:

Protein, Sugar, Etc, Keeping on Goal...

What am I doing wrong? Today was weigh in day. I'm from 265.8 to 266.2 not a full pound, but it's up. I've added exercise to my diet, I walk…

Not Enough Calories
Hello everyone, I just read the blog "Losing Weight without Exercising." Here is my dilemma. I don't eat enough calories. I don't feel hungry so I don't eat. I have trained my stomach not to be hungry by eating only when it is physically hungry. But I don't binge eat either. If you look at my food diary you can see how I…
