Juicing
Friends I would like to get some input...WHAT IS THE BEST COLD PRESS JUICER OUT THERE? My family and I are looking to start doing some juices to help supplement our diets. Before anyone gets upset I am not talking about doing a cleanse where all we do is just drink juice. I just think they would be a healthy supplement as…

Hiya, I have been on MFP for a while! It has been amazing for me but I am looking for new buddies to join my journey and keep me motivated. I have had too many friends on here come and go and I need a little extra support.

Working out all at once or breaking it up throughout the day
So my question is which is the best way to workout...A. doing your workout all at once or B. breaking up your workout into smaller times throughout the day. Just as an example: if I wanted to do 30-45 min on the elliptical would breaking it down to 10-15 minute times- morning, afternoon and evening be any better or the…

Tummy tuck surgery
Has anyone out there had a tummy tuck that could share their experience with me? I am having one in a week and a half, and I am getting nervous because I really don't know what to expect.

Greek yogurt...I'm new to it.
Ok my friends I have been doing the Greek yogurt thing the last two days. I have chobani Greek plain non fat...and to sweeten it I am using stevia. I am usually not a great fan of yogurt because of texture but is isn't too bad. My question to you all is: do you eat yogurt? What brand? What flavor? And what if anything do…

Stevia
Tell me about it. I have never tried it. How does it compare to other sweeteners?

Mini Goals
So yesterday I reached my 2nd mini goal, YAY! My question to you, when do you "say" you have finally reached one of your goals? Is it the first time you see it on the scale? Or do you have to see it there for a couple of days in a row before you "believe" it. Yesterday was the first time I saw my 2nd mini goal at 175.4 and…

down 55 lbs
Finally got the nerve up to post a before and after picture. The "before" picture is from September of 2006 and my "after" picture was taken today by my husband. It is very hard for me to look at old pictures of me but at least it gives me a reality check. The highest weight that I ever actually recorded was 235lbs. I…

Only OVERWEIGHT!
Even though my official weigh in day is Tuesdays I saw a number today that I need to celebrate! 178.4, this number officially puts me in the overweight column and NOT OBESE! I have not been this low in 11 years so it is a HUGE milestone!!! I hate BMI because I feel like if I was in my "normal range" (112-150) I would look…

Does anyone have trouble wrapping their mind around eating m
I get it I really do, you need to eat to give your body fuel to burn the fat and build muscle. My head knows this but I still have a hard time getting myself to eat the calories. I am a little nervous that I am getting too obsessed. I know I don't want to lose weight fast because in the long run I won't be successful. I…

How much water do you drink?
Is there such a thing as drinking too much water? I don't believe I am doing that but for informational purposes I would like to know. I have a liter Sigg bottle and make myself empty it at least 3 times a day which obviously is 3 L of water a day.

Snack Ideas
Believe it or not I am actually finding trouble adding more calories. Here is my dilemma...I am supposed to be on a 1480 calorie in order to lose 1 lb a week. Yesterday with exercising I only consumed 1100 calories but exercised off 500 netting only 600 calories. My fitness plan told me to be careful because I am not…

Eating after a certain time of day
Does anyone make themselves stop eating after a certain time of night? I usually don't like to eat after 7-7:30 and I go to bed around 10. I feel like it helps a lot. What about you?
