This stuff REALLY does work !!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW I cant believe it !!, After being in constant pain for the last 6 weeks (please note by this i mean the good pain, the good pain where you feel so proud of yourself, the good pain where you can actually start to feel some muscles under there, that good pain that makes you say ye-ah !!!!), and after battling my sugar…

To walk or not to walk??
I work at an elementary school as an aide and office help. All summer long I swam and walked 2 to 3 miles every other day on my treadmill. Since school started back I have been exhausted after working 8 hours. I walk ALL over the school. So much so that I took my pedometer to work on Thursday and I logged 12,000 steps.…

I need help
The past couple of days my binge eating has been dangerously out of control. I mean we're talking like one and two thousand calories over, and I can't bring myself to log everything because I'm so disappointed in myself :brokenheart: I'm tired all the time and I haven't made myself exercise in weeks. I feel like such a…

Rewards?
I plan on going to the gym everyday for a week (read my blog for more info) and I want someway to reward myself if I actually do it. I'm on day 2 and I've already been today despite the way I woke up so I'm pretty proud of myself. I can't really afford new clothes or anything and I don't really see the point in buying them…

Support needed!
Hey there MFP, Ok, so I'm 21 and I weigh 185 lbs. That number is not something I am proud of or OK with, but my family and friends insist that I look fine the way I am, and shouldn't worry about my weight at all. But I know that my eating habits are aweful, like really aweful. For example, today I have eaten a cheeseburger…

How about some inspiration?
I was googling before and after weight loss photos, and I came upon this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJfcxFrvnPg (1:55 wow) and this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRTTiqhkJPc (check out 2:59) Some of the transformations are mind blowing. So inspirational.

Eat more in front of people on purpose?
I get lots of comments since I've lost weight that I must be starving myself. People will say, "I just want to make sure you are eating enough, I'm concerned." It's hard defending myself all the time! I eat pleanty! I've worked darn hard to get here, and certainly not by omitting food! SO I find myself eating a lot in…

happy that I overate?
Today I over ate horribly, I'm not even going to bother logging in everything I ate, but I can tell you I went well over my intake limits. but for some reason I feel better, for today I don't have to restrict myself. Usually when I'm strict on my foods I end up being horrified of gaining half a pound, but now i'm just…

What would you rather be doing than be consumed with the add
I have tried it all. And I am sick and tired of my focus for the day to be on food, what to eat and what not, how much, when, blah, blah blah. I see a pattern within me that if my mind is so absorbed with this addiction that how can it be free to worship and hear the Lord God's will for me? Kids are starting school next…

I don't normally Hawk for associations, but this one is close to my heart as I live near Boston and have been to the Dana Farber many times. It's heart breaking and inspiring all at the same time to see these children battling all forms of cancer and Leukemia. More and more children are winning every year because of the…

plateau
I lost about 25 lbs a few years ago. Since then, I basically maintained my weight. I'm 5'2" and 129 lbs. For the past year or two, I've been trying (intermittently) to lose 5 more lbs and tone my waist and legs. I'm exercising 4 days a week with cardio and weights. I usually net 1200 cal per day. I know everyone hits a…

Hey gorgeous people! :flowerforyou: My most recent goal has been to start jogging at least once a day and i think it would probably be alot easier to keep myself in check if there was someone to run with. Anyone in, or around, Murfreesboro TN that would want to run later on in the evenings? Let me know :)

which is it??
I am pretty confused about how many calories are necessary to loose weight. I've read several articles about the evils of eating too little (it shuts down the metabolism, etc.) but then it seems if I eat over 1,200 calories a day (which seems like major calorie deprivation!!) I am not loosing weight!! ARRRGG!! I excercise…
