mrsgriffin2u 1 Posted January 22, 2010 Exactly - any weight loss is better than none at all! I am aiming for 30 but if I get into Onederland by any amount I will be more than please. Shoot - I'm excited to get below 220! I haven't been below 220 since high school. :biggrin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MississippiGirl 0 Posted January 24, 2010 Okay I've gotten through Day 1 of this 2 day weekend haha! Doing good...ate good today and worked out.. Do any of you eat the "skinny cow" ice cream products? Those things are awesome! Ice cream is my weakness...another good low cal icre cream fix is pudding shakes...you use your favorite instant pudding mix (mine is cheesecake) use 2 tablespoons of the dry mix in your blender with a cup of milk (preferably skim) with ice and make a smoothie..the only cals you got is what is in the milk...it is delicious. You can also add some fresh fruit to it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
