Mio Liquid water enhancer
what are your thoughts on the Mio liquid water enhancer? I bought one at my college because I got desperate for something sweet to drink but didn't want the loads of sugar or the extra calories. It has 0 calories and no sugar but I'm not sure how healthy it is? What are your thoughts? Do you like it or no?

OBSESSED! HELP!
So I think I finally figured out what holds me back from making serious strides in my weight loss goals; I've been consistently losing and gaining the same 12 lbs since my daughter was born, and I think I may have figured out why. Last night I tossed and turned for hours, even getting up and weighing myself in the middle…

need to know if I should eat.....
so i went above and beyond today with the exercise and now I have 1,500+ calories to eat for lunch and dinner today. I already ate breakfast, is it ok to have such a huge deficit? Even if I managed to eat 1000 calories between the two meals (which i wont) is it unhealthy for me leave those calories untouched?

You just have to love yourself enough...
So, today marks 2 weeks of cutting out wine, sugars, and mostly starch, and I've gone down from 205 to197. Lately, I've been giving myself only child sized portions of food, limiting the types of food I'll let myself eat. I also noticed that it is also a no brainer for me to say no to foods that I'd normally be crying for.…

I have finally hit rock bottom.
Today, for the first time in nearly a month, I have weighed myself. I was expecting bad, considering I've eaten out 5 or 6 times this month; but I was not expecting what I saw when I looked at the number on the scale. Truth is, I've been avoiding the scale because I knew that I have totally blown my "diet" and threw…

Slacked off and discouraged =(
I don't know what happened! I was going good and strong with exercising, eating better, being focused, lost a teeny bit of weight. And then life got in the way and I have majorly slacked off. I loose about 5 lbs and then bam I go about a week of crazy eating. It's like I can't help it, I have no control. I just recently…

Going to the bathroom?
Soooo I know this is TMI but I have a hard time going to the bathroom. No matter how many veggies I eat, I cant seem to ever get regular. This has been since I was a preteen. Does not being able to go to the bathroom affect weight loss? Affect how big your belly is? I noticed that lately I've been relying on…

Fifty Shades of Gray sells for $999.99
There is a big hype about a BDSM trilogy book going around and one of the book in the trilogy is selling for $999.99. Apparently this book is uber awesome and "worth it". Though this is not the lowest that the book ranks for, in the "used" section of amazon it sells no less than $50 w/s&h. In the "new" section I think it…

appropriate rest days?
today was supposed to be my second rest day. At my mom's and she has an elliptical, was thinking about doing a little exercising even though it is my rest day. If I DO workout, then that means originally tomorrow starts my new week of exercising and I would have worked out for 6 days in a row. Is it bad to only allow your…

So we all know how we go to cook a turkey, and usually it ends up dry, and forget the breast being juicy NO NO NO!

Stop being so sensitive!
I am part of a group of ladies (on fb not mfp) and one of them wrote something along the lines of hating victoria secret commercials because it reminds her that she's fat and ugly with a food addiction. Some other person wrote on there about models are shallow and a few other judgemental things, and i wrote something in…

So I finally broke down and did it....
I finally did it, I ordered Dr.Natura's Colon cleanse. I think it's a good idea for everyone to cleanse their colon every year or so. My great grandma died of colon cancer so for me especially I think it's a good idea to take care of it. I'm really nervous as to what to expect. I was advised by my mother to cut way down on…

Food rewards? I don't think so!
So, I'm a big believer in when you reach a weight loss goal, you don't reward with food. A lot of people I see say, "When I loose 15lbs I'm going to reward myself with something fattening, or some kind of food." It honestly makes me cringe on the inside. I just think it's better to not reward yourself with something that…

Do you log in your seasonings?
Do you log in your seasonings to be more accurate on your sodium intake? Even without me logging in the seasonings I put in my food I sometimes always go over. Today I thought I was doing so good because I was actually under what I was supposed to be for my sodium, and something told me to put in my seasonings for the day,…
