Hello MFP Medifasters!
Found this group while I was browsing around, avoiding real work here at the end of my workday. I've been doing Medifast on and off (mostly off through the holidays) for the past few months. I always struggle with eating well when I don't have a program setup for myself, so this makes it so easy!! I've lost the 7 lbs I…

Cycle Class Effects
My teething 10 month old twins decided 4 am was a good time to wake me up this morning. While rocking them back to sleep, I debated whether to try an sleep for another hour and a half or go to the gym. So I made a deal with myself....If there are no fitness classes early enough for me to make it to work on time, back to…

Eating well with kids
I get sooooo many 'incidental' calories from feeding my almost 10 month old twin boys! I feed them lots of healthy things like carrots, avocados, sweet potatoes, peas, blueberries and more....but that is not what I want to munch on. A nibble of apple pancakes here, a slice of cheese or two there, maybe some graham crackers…

BodyPump - Great burn!!
I almost forgot my HRM to this morning's BodyPump class (haven't been to one in ages). So glad I grabbed it while running out the door. I burned 418 calories in 55 min!!!!!! That is the same amount I would burn running about 4 miles-ish. This class is high repetition of medium weight. Lots of squats, deadlifts, rows, bench…

Funny story anyone who goes to the gym can appreciate
If you read this without laughing out loud, there is something wrong with you. This is dedicated to everyone who ever attempted to get into a regular workout routine. Dear Diary, For my birthday this year, my daughter (the dear) purchased a week of personal training at the local health club for me. Although I am still in…

NSV - Pants with a pic!
A few weeks ago I was shopping at Ann Taylor Loft (for the first time in a LONG time). Anything that did not have spandex in it was snug, to say the least. I really loved these pants, but there were definitely some camel toe and muffin top issues with them at the store. They have been hanging in my closet since...and I've…

Buh Bye X's!!!!!!
I'm not talking about you boys. (Though there are good reasons I said the same to many of you. hehe) Went to Old Navy today to try on clothes. Oh, that's right....14's and L's. No 1X. No XL. Didn't have to plus size my *kitten*. :) It's been so long since I've seen the hourglass I saw looking back at me today in the mirror.

NSV's!!
Two huge NSV's for me today. My friend said at lunch today I needed a new sundress for an event I have tomorrow. So we went to TJ Maxx and went shopping. The selections in the XL area were pretty slim (haha). So I saw the dress below and almost didn't pick it up because I didn't see a tag inside, so I didn't know the size.…

NSV - What does that number start with??
Today it started with a 1!! First time I've been under 200 in YEARS. Those words taste like vinegar and I hate the fact I even have to say that I weighed so much more than that in the first place! But...from 235ish at my highest, it's sweet to say my life is completely different and better now that I am getting back into…

Perfect Headphones
I don't know about you, but ear buds are the devil to my ears. They constantly fall out when I run. Heck, they even fall out when I'm just sitting there at my desk! I was my my running shop the other day getting some new gear and the girl told me about Yurbuds. They are a soft rubber piece that fits over any standard (iPod…

RunKeeper
Does anyone else use RunKeeper? I bought the advanced version for my iPhone (there is a free one too) and LOVE it. MFP and RK are my two favorite tools. They have a great site which helps track your progress for running, biking, walking, or anything else you want tracked by GPS & time. Add me as a friend on RK if you want.…

Frozen Yoplait Whips
This is one of my favorite snacks. When you freeze them, they taste like ice cream. Great for part of your breakfast, a snack in between meals or even dessert!! Just finished a Lemon Burst....its like a frozen lemon square. At 140 cals and 5g of Protein, what a yummy way to start the day!
