    No Sweets???????

    Another relatively good day. I did "have" to eat a crescent roll with cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on it. One of my kids learned a new recipe at school and we had to try it out and Mom was more than encouraged to taste the delicious recipe. I had to eat it for my child's sake! I am trying...

    No Sweets???????

    I had another good day. Added fruits and ate moderate portions and no candy at work. We had friends over for dinner, though and they brought cheesecake. I did have a small slice and didn't eat the whole thing (the slice, not the cake!!!). I sent the rest home with them, so I wouldn't be...

    The death of the sitcom & a few other thoughts on TV

    RE: The death of the sitcom & a few other thoughts on T... I don't watch much TV (Unless you count Disney Channel...which is actually pretty good. I like Hannah Montana and Kim Possible!), but I LOVE Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives. My favorite is Brothers and Sisters. Otherwise...

    Is it wrong to want to get a breast augmentation?

    I have a very good friend who had it done. She had it done in the winter months when she was wearing sweaters and bulkier clothing. Not one person noticed during this time. This gave her a chance to get used to them before they were "real". She also wore those water bras for quite awhile...

    No Sweets???????

    I was at a meeting with a TON of treats...homemade goodies and brownies that looked to die for...I resisted! I did have one York peppermint patty, though. It was 51 calories according to sparkpeople, and 1 gram of fat. Not too bad of a cheat. The rest of the day was good and I had some...

    VERY confused....

    What about following any rotation that you like and then using your elliptical on the cardio days. You could even go as far as putting on those DVDs and watching them for motivation/music or whatever WHILE you are on your elliptical. I have read about others watching Cathe while they are...

    No sweets check-in - week of January 1st

    Day 6? I have made it so far this week. I have not had any sweets. I am eating cleaner than I usually do (no chips, chocolate, candy, tons of butter, etc.). I am not eating clean, according to many, but I am watching my calories and trying to fit in fruits and a few veggies. That is clean...

    No sweets check-in - week of January 1st

    Another good day for me, too. Today was my first day back to work. My boss always has a jar full of chocolate and I wander in there several times per day...not today! Another bad habit that needs to be broken! I ate fairly well and every few hours, which is key for me. I slept through...

    Please give me your advice

    Nancy~ I totally agree with you about the weight loss/maintenance and calcium connection. I recently STOPPED taking my calcium and have gained a few pounds, without changing my daily intake of calories. I have started back up again as of a week ago!! Jenn

    Benefits of Omega-3 ???

    The new book by Bob Greene says that you should take a multi every day, extra calcium (if you don't get enough) and add an Omega-3 supplement. For those of you who take it, how much do you take? What are the benefits? If you don't take it, why not? TIA, Jenn

    No sweets check-in - week of January 1st

    I can't count the number of times that I reached for junk today and then that little lightbulb reminded me of this challenge. I had to literally draw my hand back from the cookies (chocolate with white chips), Doritos, frosted sugar cookies...you get the idea! This challenge reminded me to...

    Are we doing crazy food challenges in the new year?

    I was in on the no sweets challenge. It worked for me. I think that it somehow turned into all the other challenges and then the check-ins. I would be up for a challenge of no sweets. Anyone else? Jenn
