Chicken Spaghetti
Anyone have a decent recipe for chicken spaghetti that's somewhat healthy? My daughter keeps bugging me to make some and I'd never even heard of the stuff until I moved to Arkansas.

Vision Boards
I'm starting a new vision board, but I'm having a hard time really defining those things that I really do want and I need some ideas. Have you made one for yourself? Where did you put it? Has it helped you at all? How long have you had it? Did you make yours on poster board or bulletin board or even a full wall (saw one…

It's GO Time!
Well. Here I am...again. I first joined sometime last summer - July, I think it was. In fact, I've kept MFP up as one of my opening tabs when I turn the computer on everyday. =) I lost just over 30lbs. before Thanksgiving. Then decided I would take a break during the holidays and start back up after the new year. Well, I…

Polar F6
Okay. So I got this fabulous HRM for Christmas. Well, I played around with it for a couple of days and got all the settings down. After a long break, I finally started back at the gym this week anxious to actually use my HRM for the first time. So...I'm on the treadmill for about 20min. or so and happened to notice that…

Back after a holiday break! :)
I can tell (and have heard :wink: ) that I have a lot of catching up to do around here. I really didn't want to re-introduce myself. I've always felt like I was part of the family around here. So for those that remember me, HEEEEEYYYY - glad to be back after my two-month break. And for those who I haven't met yet, Welcome…

Healthy Dining
I just happened across this site and thought I'd share. I was looking for nutritional information on a local restaurant's (Famous Dave's) menu. http://www.healthydiningfinder.com/site/ They also have restaurants listed in alphabetical order. Check out the link below for that.…

Halloween
I never got to do the whole Halloween thing when I was growing up. When I had kids of my own, I took them trick-or-treating, but now my oldest two are too old and I don't really want to take my youngest (8yrs. old) out for too long. We don't need the candy in the house. So, I'm trying to come up with some ideas for…

Ummm...Got Blood?
I do. :laugh: But I'm gonna give some away today. The blood mobile is in front of the office building today. Now...I just looked in the database for this and was surprised to find that no one has actually entered it in. So I guess I will. But what do I put it under or how do I label it? I mean it's not cardio, it's not…

I'm goin' on a mini-binge
Just for accountability purposes...I am so totally binging today. Haven't really done that since I've joined. I decided last night that I wasn't going to hold back from anything today. I've got company in town (their last day here). It's also that TOM for me and I've gained 4.5lbs. anyway. I'm letting go...just for today.…

I'm afraid of self sabotage
Okay. A little into my biggest personality fault. All my life, I've always had a way of holding myself back. I mean, I will start out really great and then I'll get to a certain point and it's almost like I feel like I'm not good enough to get further and then I somehow end up taking steps backwards. It's been that way…

My first milestone
Ohmigosh!!! I said that I would stay out of my fave clothing stores, but I just couldn't resist! I went into to Sears last night and just had to try some stuff on. Well guess what! I am a size 16 now! Can you believe it?! And a sz.16 was really comfortable. I haven't been in a size 16 since 2002! You have no idea what this…

Sugars too high...or not?
Well, I just finished logging in my food for the day and I'm 27g over my sugar (supposed to be at 24 and total is now 51). BUT 39 of those were from: orange juice at breakfast, 1 banana morning snack, and 1 naval orange afternoon snack. Should I really worry about going over my sugars if it's coming from fruit? I know I…

What's for dinner?
Still trying to get it right with my calorie intake and was just wondering if you would be willing to share what you are having for dinner with me (not literally :laugh: ). Maybe it'll give me some ideas. So what's for dinner?

Should I be eating more?
I read that I should be consuming like 1200 calories a day. But I notice that my caloric intake is closer to between 900-1000 a day. Should I be eating more? I am eating healthier or rather making healthier choices, but aside from that, I really haven't changed the times or the amount of what I eat (I am trying to snack…

Newbie here. Checking in. :)
I just joined last night and have been checking everything out. I hope I've found a forum right for me. I thought I had joined a pretty decent one, but not much activity going on over there. It's no fun talking to myself. So here I am. :) I want to make lots of changes in my life. The biggest hurdle is my weight. My goal…
