juicing
So I really have a hard time eating enough veggies. I just don't like them that well, fresh or cooked. I also have very little time. So I am wondering what the thoughts are on juicing whole veggies/fruit to help get down the recommended amounts of both each day. Like maybe drinking juice for one meal per day? So yeah,…

Oxy Elite Pro?
Was wondering if anyone on here has heard/used this product. If so, does it work? Is it good for you? Bad? Just recently heard of it, and am looking for some honest reviews. Thanks! EDIT: I am NOT looking for a quick fix... Was just curious as I had never heard of thermogenics before.

Something that will help me know if he is…

MFP start-over
So I've been on here since june of 2011, but haven't been active much over the last year.

Progress Pics
So I was discouraged the other day, and felt like quitting, so I did a side by side to see if I have really lost inches & lbs. I was very pleasantly shocked by the results! I may have only lost 12 lbs so far, but I've lost over 10 inches. :) So I am very happy about that. Keep in mind, I have just finished a 7 week local…

So I just finished a local 6 week biggest loser contest. I only lost 10 lbs total, but I lost 10 inches overall - 5 off my waist alone! I also dropped from a 24 to a 20 in skirt sizes, and from a 22 to a 20 top. I'm also happy that I lost and inch off of each bicep. My arms are probably my biggest problem area - they are…

NSV!
So 4 weeks ago when I started my 6 week local biggest loser contest, I felt like I was gonna die after a 10 min cross training workout. Tonight, I did a 50 min cross training workout, came home, RAN up my stairs, and then hula-hooped for a few minutes afterwards. I've also lost 9.5 lbs, and 5 inches around my waist, but…

unexpected scale victory...
So I just started a local 6 wk biggest loser program, and was slightly dissapointed when I had only dropped 4 lbs at our first weigh-in, because I went from pry 2400 cal a day to 1200, and exercising 5x a week. Today they reweighed us tho, because the gym scales weren't working properly - I've lost a total of 9 lbs!!!!! I…

quote....
I saw this quote today, and thought it was pretty funny, even though a little on the harsh side of things. :) No diet will remove all the fat from your body because the brain is entirely fat. Without a brain you might look good, but all you could do is run for public office. ~Covert Bailey

vegetables? Ewww
How does a person learn to like healthy veggies? I love tomatoes, corn, potatoes, peas, green beans, cukes, and I can eat cauliflower and broccli raw if I have a little dressing... but I am afraid that I hopelessly hate most other veggies. And since i am tryin to learn new eating habits, how do I learn to like a food I…

First (very small) NSV
So this is my first NSV, and since i've only been on MFP for about a week, I am pretty happy. I know this might sound small to some people, or even stupid, but here goes! I actually get hungry now! Regularly, not just every now and then. I am hungry at every mealtime, and I wake up hungry as well. Do you realize how long…
