Has anyone had eggbeaters? I'm tempted to try them but heard they have an icky taste to them.

Eggbeaters suck! Fat-free cheese? YUCK! Girl...have a little real cheese with your eggs, just not a pig-pile. Veggies - WAY TO GO!

When I ate meat, the mcgriddle was my best friend...so yummy. SOOOOOO full of junk!

I'm feelin' your pain!

I hope you ate a good breakfast & are sleeping soundly now.

I started my walking and still eating well, am down another 4 lb - NICE! I FEEL FAT though!!!

The gremlin in your head that says, "I feel fat, though" needs to be SILENCED!!!!!

BAD GREMLIN, BAD!

Great JOB getting started walking!

Great JOB dropping 4 pounds!

How does that feel?

When I was on a low glycemic diet I used egg beaters and didn't find them that bad. Made pretty good omlets. But I agree that fat free cheese sucks. Low fat cheese is good.

Way to go Zoe!

It's Friday night:

What's the BEST thing you did for yourself this week?

Me - I exercised every day. Consistency is key for me & something I have a REALLY hard time with.

This week I did it!!! Yay me!

[Tweety]

Way to Go greenergrass!!! Yay you!!!

Consistency is something I do struggle with.

[greenergrass]

consistency will actually be my website article topic this week. ONLY because this last couple of weeks have proven to be a huge breakthrough for me in this area.

I'm NOTORIOUSLY INCONSISTENT - with EVERYTHING!

[Tweety]

Me too greener, me too. But for me 7 days a week is just too much. That would definitely set me up for failure. I'm happy with 3 to 4.

Oh! 7 days a week is definitely tough & I wouldn't suggest it for anyone who hasn't been exercising for a while & can fit it into their lifestyle. It definitely has the possibility to set you up for failure & takes a huge committment.

I usually advocate just exactly what you're saying - 3-4 days a week consistantly.

My 7 days a week is a lot of different activities: Running, Swimming, Biking, Yoga. If I tried to do all days on the same activity, I'd end up injured. Yoga is my "rest day".

What ever anyone is doing, if they can get in 3-4 days each week to start, that's awesome!
