My boobs ....
are shrinking!!!!! :noway: :sad: ( . Y . ) I have been the same (fairly big) size forever!!! I even had myself measured a while back to see if the size changed at all and the lady said it was still the same but lately, my bras don't fit well anymore. The straps are constantly falling (very annoying) and the cup is well,…

Match.com anyone?
Anyone here on Match ever attend one of their Stir events? Pretty much they coordinate live events in a particular area for groups of people/singles to meet up off the site, face to face. Just curious if anyone had gone to one and how it was? I mean too many people never take a chance to get to know you based just on a…

Best Compliment :)
So I met a guy for the first time over the weekend. One of the few normal ones on POF. We live in Florida so we met and spent the day at one of the Disney parks. Hit it off great and will see each other again this coming weekend. He knows all about my weight struggles and that I eat healthy and work out and stuff. I'm…

BIG NSV for me! :-)
My friend had posted this week on facebook that she needed another girl to participate in a kickball tournament, strictly recreational; 10 person team, 5 guys & 5 girls but one couldn't make it & backed out. I thought about it and was like hey, I do martial arts & kick boxing, surely I could kick a ball! So I joined the…

Deleted my profiles :)
After an annoying few weeks with some of these dating sites, I got fed up last night and deleted OKC & POF!!! I'm FREE from the useless drama and ridiculousness that comes with those free sites, I am so over it! :drinker: Still have a profile up on Match & paid through the end of the year so... :indifferent:

HELP please! Energy needed... :)
I'm looking for some recommendations -- I'd say I'm at an intermediate (maybe higher) fitness level. Currently I do Les Mills Body Combat classes religiously 3x/wk. Power walk some other days. Those classes are intense. They are martial arts inspired fitness classes & I always burn anywhere from 500-600 calories or more so…

Halloween party!!! (pics)
Went to a Halloween party last night and I can honestly say for the first time in a long time I didn't feel like "the fat chick" or the girl that no guy would ever even look at. I felt that I looked like an average (sized) person and actually felt SEXY!!! Weight loss is amazing and I love it!!!! :heart: :heart: :heart: See…

Food shopping frustration
With the Tropical Storm/Hurricane looming over us here in Florida I went food shopping today to stock up on some things just in case we can't get out for a few days. It was SOOOOOOOO difficult finding low carb & high protein healthy food that you can have on standby in case power goes out & that doesn't require cooking.…

UPDATE to: am I being unfair?
Happy Monday everyone!!! Just wanted to post a quick update from this post I made last week: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/708464-am-i-being-unfair I was very hesitant to go out to dinner with my family for my birthday because I didn't want any temptation and take a chance in eating something I shouldn't. I also…

Am I being unfair?
My birthday is this weekend. Of course my family asks me where I want to go for dinner and I declined their offer. I simply told them I am really on track now and I don't want to take a chance ruining anything by going out for a big meal. Yes I know, I can order light and get chicken and veggies, a salad or a small steak…

Grrrrrr POF ...
Geez WTF is up with these sites? It's pretty pathetic that I just had to add this to my POF profile - (It's pretty sad that I have to add this but well, I guess I do. DO NOT message me with sexual offers/requests. I am not a prude but I am a lady, have some respect. This is a dating site where I am looking to meet a guy…

Before & 1/2 way there .. pics!
I have been on this site on and off for over a year, don't post too much but I do browse frequently. My weight has been a struggle forever. In the past year I have struggled with a stubborn 20 lbs that won't go away! I eat great, love working out but the pounds don't budge. So I decide to treat myself a little and before I…

Advice please...
So .. after much hesitation I reactivated my POF profile. Updated the narrative and pics. 1st guy that messages me is a guy I dated about 4 yrs ago. When I saw the name, I immediately knew it was him. Funny thing is a few weeks ago I just happened to think of him, just wondering whatever happened to him. Back then we dated…

Completed 5K today!!!
I've done a few 5K walks before. I signed up for one this morning that was a 5K Fitness Walk because I don't think I'm ready yet to run the whole 5K. At the gym I've been doing intervals on the treadmill, fast walking and jogging. I was NEVER able to jog before more than 30 seconds as I would get totally winded and get…

Obsessed with exercise
I have a personal trainer at the gym, found some group fitness classes that I LOVE and do 5K speed walks on days I just don't want to be indoors at the gym. I love the way exercise makes me feel and the results I'm getting from it. It has become an obsession and I can't get enough. Anyone else like that too?? For anyone…

Vegetable steamer?
Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced & easy to use vegetable steamer? I've been buying frozen veggies but fresh ones seem so much better... Thank you! :bigsmile:

I'm back!!!
Hi everyone.... I was off this site for a while. I had some real tough issues I was working through but I am completely back on track and doing better than ever. I was so frustrated before and working too hard to lose weight that I actually ended up putting 20 lbs back on. Well, I'm back down 12 from that 20 and feeling…

Delicious low-carb crustless quiche EASY
http://www.hillshirefarm.com/recipes/crustless-quiche.aspx I found this recipe and modified it a bit... it is SO easy and delicious. I made a portion (divided into 8-servings) and will cut a square and have this for breakfast like an omelet. I'm focusing on low carb so this is perfect for me. I'm sure a substitute can be…

I made a decision
Okay, so as any of you know from my posts on here, I have barely lost any weight while monitoring calories on this site. I absolutely love being a part of MFP and it has made me soooo conscious of what I am eating and logging food, water, and exercise. It gives me accountability and keeps me from eating bad, which is…

Need help for a party...
Having a group gathering with some friends at the end of the month. Everyone is bringing something and I'm trying to think of a healthy dish I can bring. There will probably be between 15-20 ppl. Personally, this is more selfish for me so I know I'll have something good for myself to eat. Could easily bring a fruit or…

Went on Active.com today and signed up for a 5K walk in my area... its a month from now so really have the time to drop some pounds and shape up some more!!! From the fat & lazy girl that used to veg out in front of the TV and stuff her face to the girl that just signed up for a 5K and exercises 7 days a week... I feel…

Yay!!!
So I have been extremely frustrated not losing any weight, I have been with MFP for 1 month now, strictly monitoring what I consume and exercising 6-7 days/week. Through the wonderful advice and encouragement on here I am proud to say I went to Curves (my gym) this morning for my monthly weigh-in with measurements. Since…

Can someone please review my food
Hi fellow MFPers :smile: Can any of you offer some constructive criticism and review my food diaries. I've been on here 2 weeks trying to break past my plateau. From the tons of posts I've read on here and a visit to GNC I've added a multivitamin pack to my diet as well as added more protein, more than I feel I have ever…

Bummed about sore muscles
So since starting this program I have been working out like mad! 8 out of the last 9 days trying different things and working ALL muscle groups. Problem is, I'm sore today and think my body needs rest but I want to do more! At least get in some cardio and burn some calories. I feel I could push myself through the soreness…

Silly question about water...
Just curious... if I use water to make a protein shake, should I count that as part of my water intake for the day? I just made one for lunch using 16oz. of water... so should that be counted as 2 of my 8 cups? Just wondering if I need more water since I am drinking like crazy and peeing ALL day/night....

Stumped...
I guess maybe I want fast(er) results but I'm wondering if my carb/protein/fat ratio isn't right. I actually just reset it to 35/45/20 since I've been reading a lot on here and added a lot more protein to my diet. I always seem to be over on my carbs though?? Is that okay since a lot of it is from healthy carbs, whole…
