Guest guest Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 --Hi!! And Welcome!!! I have been in this group for only a month or so, and it already has become a very important part of my life I think your movement to good carbs and good fats is excellent!! I try, at least some of the time to nudge myself in that direction. Congratulations on your weight loss and success in using Food Mover!!! Both great accomplishments.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Do you go by CJ? Welcome! I'm a SAHM too and it's tough with Girl Scout cookies, Valentine's candy, and other kid stuff around. It's great that you are trying to get the whole family to eat healthier. My kids are picky but at least they like fruit and some raw veggies. I think white bread should be outlawed! I was aghast when dh brought that stuff into our house. It took a little work but now it's gone again. Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Hi Jana, We called our youngest daughter Jana for the first few days of her life and then settled on Vonn. I love the name Jana but it was driving dh crazy that everyone thought we were saying Janet. Vonn is about to turn 5 and Lynn is 8 so our kids are similar in age. Sounds like you're off to a great start. It's wonderful that you've found an exercise that you enjoy. Ann Houston 273/256/226 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jana wrote: I remeber when I was a kid I was called Janice Janet everything but Jana, so when kids would call my house if they asked for Janice or Janet they would say they had the wrong number and that use to make me mad. Jana Just for Today I will have a program. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests; hurry and indecision. ~ Ruth -Bourdon 100-Plus Files page 100-plus/files 100-Plus Links page 100-plus/links Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Hello, and welcome aboard! Congrats on last week's loss. As for this week, please don't be too concerned with the numbers on the scale. Are you eating better? Staying to plan more? Getting in the water and exercise? Then *THAT* is BETTER. Remember, it's common to see a bigger lost the first week, and then a slower 1-2 lbs lost after that. That's not a case of 'better' or 'worse' - it's simply how our bodies work!

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Hi! Thanks for the welcome. I am following just a healthy eating plan based mostly on common sense....for the first time in my life I realized no magic diet or pill would work. So, 1400 calories a day - 20 minutes of Gazelle Power Gliding, and resistance training 3 days a week is really helping me. Plus, I use subliminal CDs in the car and before I go to bed at night. Not sure if it really works, but hey - can't hurt right? For the first few months I used Deal a Meal cards to help me, then I got to where I just knew what I could eat and can't. I am 47 years old - live in a really remote farm setting, (1 1/2 hr to WalMart), married, no kids but one really spoiled terrier mix dog. And a cat with a weight problem. Looking forward to talking with all of you, this is the first group I've ever joined so not quite sure how it all works - try to be patient with me. Topaz Jase4567@... wrote: Welcome Topaz...

Hi ! That is terrific! Good going. You can lose even more! This list is a great place to come for support and advice. Sue gave you an awesome reply! I wanted to second her post and welcome you. Quick and nutritious meals... I am having trouble with that one too. What about having a large salad ready in the frige and just adding some cooked chicken or ham or something. We do this about once a week. It makes a great meal for not a lot of calories. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 > Hello everyone! My name is and I have just started the foodmover > program. Welcome, ! > I have 122 pounds to lose Why not look at a smaller picture for now, instead of the BIG one, and maybe set your first goal for something like 20 pounds. Which Foodmover are you using, the SlimAway Everyday one, with the first 30 days in the looseleaf binder and 1400 calories and the Foodmvoer with 2 different cards (top and bottom of the pyramid), or the older ones, where you eat 1000 calories for BlastOff week then go to the calorie card for your weight? Not that it makes much difference, except the SlimAway encourages writing out that food journal every day. It's a really useful tool for someone just starting on a wieght loss program. For the first few weeks, at least, write out everything you eat, drink, and chew. Write down how you feel both before and after you eat the food, too. Did you grab that cookie because you were truly hungry? Did it satisfy you? Or was it out of boredom and now that you ate it you're still bored and looking for more food? If it was true hunger, and it happens every day at that time, then you'll know to plan a healthy, low-cal snack for that time every day. There's a link to some blank journal pages in our Links section. Be sure to drink your water. The Foodmover allows for 8 glasses of water (or soup, juice, etc.) a day, but we big gals usually need a bit more, some " experts " say up to a half ounce of water for every pound of body weight. That means someone my size, let's say 280 for ease of measurements, should work up to drinking 140 ounces of water a day. Chemical-laden drinks like soda and Crystal Lite don't count but usually need extra water to flush them out of your kidneys. And start moving each day. If you can do an exercise video, try get in minimal one 30 minute exercise session 3 to 5 days a week. Many ladies here can't even do that much, so they have to start a bit slower. There are chair exercises (See our Links page again), gentle eerises for seniors are usually easy on the joints (My favorite is and the Silver Foxes, the one done with celebrity parents, including his own mom Shirley, as well as some of Sansone's 1-mile Walkaerobic videos). yoga or tai chi, walking (start slow, walk a little faster for a period, then walk slower for a cool down), or just popping on some music and dancing around the house! Whatever gets you up and moving is fine to start. As you get more fit you'll *want* to do more and can hit your library or video rental store or just trade with friends until you find the ones you like. Many people our size like many of ' videos, and he's now putting the finsihing touches on a few new ones that should be coming out this winter. He *usually* does a New Year's Eve show one one of the home shopping stations, but missed last year when he changed companies and didn't have a new product ready. and desperatly need some support > (pies and cookies and cakes....oh sigh) If you use the Foodmover you'll eventually learn how to eat these foods as long as you have enough windows for them. I strongly suggest you get yourself a diabetic exchange book from the bookstore, because the booklets that come with the Foodmvoers don't really have that many foods listed, and since the Foodmover (as did DealAMeal before it) is based on the American Diabetic Association's exchange program, the windows and exchanges for foods are identical. > So far on my own I've managed to lose 25 pounds. That's pretty darn good! > I'm a single working mom so I've gotten pretty used to quick not very > good for you meals. I'd appreciate any ideas on some " quick " healthy > meals. Our Files section has a whole slew of recipes, most complete with Foodmover windows listed. There's also our sister list, RSDeal (rsdeal ) that's loaded with Foodmover recipes. If you're looking for a certain type of recipe (besides quick and easy) just ask and I'm sure you'll get a bunch of responses.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Welcome ! 25 pounds is great! Keep up the good work. On of my quick meal ideas: I just add cooked chicken (cubed) to some frozen veggies (I like the Green Giant Teryaki mixed veggies). Sometimes I will have a little brown rice with it (depends on how much time). CherylIt starts with a letter and ends with one too <woolababe@...> wrote: Hello everyone!
