Ask Umpa / Mexican food--refried beans
« on: July 26, 2011, 09:47:23 PM »
Hi umpa!
Would love to hear any ideas you may have about a sub for refried beans...I cannot think of any!
I had a taco salad today--beef, lettuce, tomato, sour cream, avocado, cheese, salsa--it was yummy, but I really missed my refrieds!
any ideas?
I live in tx and am surrounded by Mexican food!!!
Thanks!

i agree there is something about them that just makes everything about me slower.....
i have tried to get off of them, but then have crazy crying spells, etc...
i used to say that i had to make a choice: either be a skinny b$$$$, or be fat and happy!
i am hoping with this fts way, i can beat the fat thing, although maybe slower than others....then MAYBE, some of the emotional stuff will lessen and maybe eventually come off of the zoloft!
that is my prayer anyway!

Thank you all for the great replies! Really good to get some encouragement!
I wanted to also add that I have taken zoloft for the past 5 years, after my first child. That is when my weight really started creeping up. When I got pregnant with my second, I weighed 161. I stopped taking zoloft during the pregnancy--i only gained 14 pounds during preg.
Right after my daughter was born, I started zoloft again--I knew I needed it emotionally!! While constantly nursing, I got back down to 144. Then it happened again....weight crept up again, and now here I am!
Anyone have experience with zoloft?? I swear this has made it harder to lose for me--or maybe I just want to blame something other than me!
Any thoughts??

thanks joagain! i guess i am young, but i am convinced....age really doesn't matter. I have friends my age who are bigger than me, and friends who are much older and super fit. i have never been "skinny"....very curvy, which i don't mind. at my wedding weight, which is what i will compare to my happy, healthy best, i was between 130-135. Now, being 5'4", i know the charts say i should weigh 120.....there is no way!!! i can't even remember weighing that, even in high school!
I have always been busty and had a booty. Along with that though, comes a belly....never had a flat tummy in all of my life, even at my "skinniest". However, now I am convinced that I may be able to get there with this new way of eating. I am such a carb fiend...maybe that was why I have always been so round in the middle!
We shall see!!!!!!

Thanks jen1975! You are my first "friend" here on this forum!
Yes, i decided P90X seemed way too extreme for me! I am really liking this knockoff! Supreme 90 day is only about 30-40 min, but way more intense than any other exercise program I have done!
Thanks for the encouragement! I am really determined to do it this time!

SO I HAVE BEEN LURKING FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS. YOU ALL SEEM GREAT AND SO SUPPORTIVE! I JUST TURNED 35 8 DAYS AGO . I AM THE MOTHER OF TWO. I AM 5' 4" AND WEIGHED 178 ONE WEEK AGO. THAT DID IT FOR ME....2 POUNDS HIGHER THAN MY TOP PREGNANCY WEIGHT WITH BOTH OF MY KIDS!! I HAVE DECIDED "NO MORE"! I WANT TO BE COMFORTABLE IN MY BODY AGAIN, AND I WANT TO BE SOMEONE THAT MY KIDDOS AND HUSBAND CAN LOOK UP TO....ME BEING SLUGGISH AND DEPRESSED ABOUT HOW I LOOK, AVOIDING SOCIAL ACTIVITIES BECAUSE I AM EMBARASSED IS DOING NONE OF US ANY GOOD!
MY BODY ALWAYS FELT BEST AT AROUND 130-135, AND IT WAS EASY TO MAINTAIN, SO I AM DECLARING THIS AS MY GOAL WEIGHT!
I REALLY THINK I CAN DO IT WITH THIS WAY OF EATING. NOT SAYING IT WILL BE EASY--I LOVE ME SOME MASHED POTATOES AND PASTA!!! NO SWEET TOOTH FOR ME; I AM A SALTY GIRL--CRACKERS, POPCORN, CHIPS......
BUT I AM LEARNING IN THIS FIRST WEEK THAT THIS PROGRAM IS DOABLE. I TRULY HAVE NOT BEEN HUNGRY AT ALL! I HAVE HAD SUCCESS IN THE PAST ON WEIGHT WATCHERS, BUT FIND IT TO HARD TO KEEP TRACK OF THE POINTS, AND THEN I FAIL.
MY QUESTION IS, HOW FAST SHOULD I EXPECT TO LOSE? I BEGAN THE SUPREME 90 DAY WORKOUT (P90X KNOCKOFF 6 DAYS AGO AND IT IS KICKING MY BUTT! I HATE EXERCISE, BUT DO LOVE THE WAY IT MAKES ME FEEL! HAS ANYONE COMBINED FTS WITH SUPREME 90
THANKS AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR REPLIES!

HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS COMBINATION?
