Hi everyone. My name is Kimberly, and I'm a graduate student working on my PhD.

She recommended counting calories, exercise, and…

Yup, I'm a newbe...
Hello all. I'm new to this site like many of you. I'm hoping that actually recording my food intake and "seeing" what I consume will help me (in the short term and long term) to be more conscientious about what I put into my body. I'm pretty good about the required amount of water and my husband and I just purchased a…

Another newbie
Well, after having my son I topped out at about 178 lbs.(about 6 yrs ago) Then my hubby and I decided to get healthy and we both lost a lot of weight.

I'm being harrassed again!
Why?? Dieting has been a joint effort many time over the last 15 or so years with my husband(of almost 47 years). While we have been successful several time, losing almost 80 pounds between us at one point, it always seems to miss us so much it comes back.:tongue: Hopefully we won't plan any trips to derail us again, but…
