Going Bottomless @ Thanksgiving Dinner
My fav frozen shell is 120 calories BEFORE there has been anything done to it!!! So I think I may go bottomless (he he) for all the Thanksgiving pies my family will consume this year. But I wonder if there are any great low cal recipes out there? Or maybe I bake it in the crust and just eat the filling, and teach my kiddos…

Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution
I have been watching the old episodes on the internet. It's pretty inspiring (especially for those of us that have kids.) He does some really good demonstrations on the amount of junk that people allow in their lives. If you are struggling with getting motivated to make better food for yourself / family you may want to…

selling on ebay - gone wrong
I am so pissed right now - I was going to eat my weight in food but instead I am going to throw this out to you good people. We recently bought something we couldn't afford - had regrets and decided to sell it on ebay. So we listed the item, sold it and shipped it - yay! Everything is great right? Wrong - the buyer said…

this is yuck
I HAD to have brownies tonight. (HAD TO) So after dinner I grabbed the box and ingredients and got busy. When I started to stir the bowl I saw a red streak against the white bowl so I tilted it forward and the egg was bloody. :sick: I scooped out what I could get (which was yuck) and then I added another egg and mixed it…

No mans land, aka ladies fitting room
My current clothes are fitting kinda wonky - mostly from being stretched to their limits :embarassed: so I thought I would look for a coupe of pieces to extend my wardrobe. Well it turns out that size 16-18 in regular clothes in cut to small and size 16-18 in womens is cut too generously. UGH! So after a very frustrating…

pure protein from target
I bought some Pure Protein from Target and it is so nasty. I thought I would get used to it but it turns out that I'd rather eat the cabinet door than drink that stuff. Can I return it with a receipt if I have consumed about 1/4 of the tub?

progress post
So I have lost 30lbs. 10 with weight watchers and 20 with you guys here at MFP. I am so glad strangers have quit asking me when my (non-existent) baby is due! A few NSVs: I am not having the same breathing problems as before, so I sleep much better. I can see my ankle bones. I had to take in the sides of my 3x swimsuit…

Belly flap measurements
I measured my belly flap for the first time this morning. I measured around my hips but over the flap, and then I measured from navel to pubic bone (like at the end of pregnancy). I am not sure what would be considered success though - as I have lost weight the flap has gotten lower which may mean that the numbers are…

just dance 2 / wii
So I have been going nuts and playing this game everyday. I just wonder if I should switch the controller to my left hand occasionally. It probably doesn't matter that much but the game does favor the right hand.

weighted vest
Does anyone work out (cardio) using a weighted vest? or do their normal house chores wearing it? do you feel it helps weight loss? I have been carrying around a 10 pound backpack a lot this week and I love how I feel when I take it off.

feeling lost
So coming out of the gate I got to see results from simple changes, like quitting soda, or doing any exercise. Now I am suddenly at the point where I am making an effort and the results are soooo sloowwwwww. I know I need to tweak my eating some and I also know that when the weather cools some I will be able to do more…

came to MFP to lose, but now I have a different goal
Where is a reliable place to learn about nutrition and exercise? Someplace that is not trying to sale me something, or get enough internet hits to take over the world. I want to KNOW what types of nutrients my body needs and the amounts. It's not just a weight loss thing I am trying to build a body that can do amazing…

ground turkey v ground beef
So I bought some ground turkey and made 2 dinners this week: tacos and then tonight hamburger helper. I noticed that I ate less of the dinners but still felt full. AND I did not get a tummy ache like I seem to do when I eat ground beef. So is this the normal experience? I didn't love the taste but if these are truly going…

28 lbs to overweight status
So, if I lose 28 lbs I will no longer be obese but just regular overweight. That sounds like a big but doable number. Plus then my little wii fit character would quit blowing up so big. Have ya'll done the math for yourselves yet?

how much will I be able to eat at goal weight?
I know this is a weird thing to worry about, because I know I have room for improvement but... How much food will I be able to eat when I am at goal weight? Will I be happy with what I get (calorie wise) in order to stay there? I am trying to focus on small permanent changes but I keep coming up with this question.
