I've never confessed anything like this to anybody but my husband but I thought maybe you guys would have some good advice or have been here or anything. I totally binged at work today. I've only been back at the whole weight loss thing for a couple month now (since my…

Hey Purples
Hey guys. Sorry I've been MIA. We're having some major family issues right now. I'm still losing weight, but I'm afraid it's more from stress than exercise. I know I missed some weigh ins, but I'm trying to get back to normal life now. I'll try to be in touch more.

Bucket of Crabs
Have you ever seen a bucket full of crabs? They pinch and pull as they struggle to climb over one another to reach the top of the bucket - to freedom. Ask any fisherman and they'll tell you that a bucket full of crabs doesn't need a lid - they simply won't escape. Why? Well, it's not impossible for a crab to climb to the…

Weight Loss Support?
Hey, I realize there's a ton of these posts up here, but I figured I'd post my own inquiry. I just joined this site and I'm looking for someone who can share in this experience; we can offer support, share tips and weigh-ins (provide accountability!). I'm a 20 year old full time university student, so I don't have too much…

Poor College Student
I know that buying alot of groceries from places like "Save-A-Lot," are cheaper, but sometimes are slot more calories. How do I save money and loose weight?

>:O Why?!!!
Ok. I don't get it. I've been running outside for about 7 months now (4-5 miles a morning) and lost a lot of weight, which came off quite fast. I hit a plateau at the beginning of the year that lasted up until a week or two ago, when I got a gym membership. I wanted to change it up, get cross training and all. For the last…

Streeeeetch -- Words of Wisdom -- March 4, 2009
Good morning. I was reading “Be all you can be” by John Maxwell last night and I found this excerpt very interesting..... “If you're not stretching, you're in a much better position to defend yourself; your muscles are naturally defensive. Though most people begin their lives by stretching, they soon discover that this…

I do it for love?
Ya know, Jillian's talk with that blonde chick last night really struck a chord with me. I've been realizing lately, that I too, seem to be doing this for love and attention from others, that I'm not giving myself. I realize that, but I have no idea how to change it and do this for me. That's the reason I can't seem to…

So Awesome! I added March to my fitness journal!!!!
When I started working out I decided to keep a fitness journal. I record my workouts, what I am grateful for and then I have been putting in images, songs, quotes etc that encourage me. It was just cool to be able to flip past january, february and add March! So proud of myself for continuing this journey this long. Anyone…

This One's Not About Me
I have a couple friends who are overweight. I try to encourage them to check out this site. I try to get them excited to DO something. But they always have an excuse. One of my girlfriends is going into surgery, so she says it doesn't make sense to start until afterwards. Another says she has too much on her plate and…

Thin Mints at the Office (not so thin!)
Ok, does anyone else have this problem? You know the problem I'm talking about. It's where you work a fairly sedentary office job, sitting on your bum as it flattens out slowly in front of a computer screen punching away at a keyboard for the better part of 7-8 hours for about 5 days a week. To make matters worse, your…

Okay, I am not a morning person so I am posting the challenge tonight. I don't have any witty, sarcastic name for the challenge so it will be referred to as "Black Team Challenge Week 9" (Creative, huh?) I don't know about you guys but I know that I can get into a rut pretty easily, always doing the same things all the…

Here we go again
Okay so it's just another day. Another day to be depressed and stressed out. If it's not work, then it's home. Usually and more often than not, it's home. I have gotten back on the "see food and eat it" diet. NOT A GOOD THING!!! I can't even muster enough energy or motivation to think about exercising or eating remotely…

:grumble: Yup .. a food junkie. I am officially standing up in front of the class and saying "I am a junkie" :grumble: I don't know what is wrong with me ... or how I got this way. I spent two weeks counting EVERY calorie .... sacrificing and working out and really really sticking to it. Then I went to the casino's. And I…

There is someone I would like to thank, but I don't know who
In a posting a week or two ago (I don't know what the posting was), someone mentioned that their friend (I think) had them hold weights out in front of them to give them perspective on how much weight they had actually lost. This has helped me TREMENDOUSLY!!! Now every time I think down on myself about how I've only lost a…

My life is good, but there are times that I just get overwhelmed and feel so forlorn :brokenheart: . All of the friends that I've had for the past several…

Did you know that mfp records decimals for your weight?
:wink: I've been stuck at 194 for awhile, but today the scale said 193.4, so I decided to give it a try! It rounded my weight lost to 18 lbs. Isn't that cool? Did you know that it would accept decimals? Brenda:flowerforyou:
