Slow like the turtle wins the race...
I started doing this about a month ago, and I've lost just over 6lbs so far. I'm eatting MUCH better than I was before, and I'm exercising-not nearly as much as I should but it's a start, right? Anyway, I'm losing about 1-1.5 pounds a week, which as I've been told is a healthy way to lose it and keep it off. I'm feeling…

I Couldn't Believe It! Feel Kinda Alone in My Celebrating!
Hey, all! This afternoon, I passed my bathroom scale after I took a shower, and stepped on it out of curiosity. I have only been eating differently and exercising for a week. It said I lost 6 1/2lbs! WOOOOHOO! I couldn't believe my eyes! I stepped on the scale 3 more times in disbelief. I had a tough week. . Plus... My…

Slowed down? Plateau? Try Taso's way!! :)
It's been a little over a year since I started on MFP. Like so many here, I was of the mindset that eating exercise calories was absurd. How in the world are you going to lose weight eating like that?! There were so many preaching this concept that I thought for sure they were just trying to get me to fail. Well, that…

NSV 2 Miles
I have been trying to run (jog) at least 5 times a week. I did compete in the Warrior Dash 5k, which was about a month and a half ago. Didn't do any training and struggled. I have never been able to run more than a mile. Today, while out on my run, instead of taking my normal mid break, I ran the entire 2 miles non stop!…

65 pounds gone FOREVER! (pictures)
The closer I get to my goal (35 pounds away now), the more and more excited I get.

Here are a couple of "before" pictures :sad: next to pictures taken recently (as of…

NSV - Running
I just had to share with someone that might understand how happy/excited/proud of myself I am. The last few days I've been feeling in a rut and not really wanting to workout. I've started feeling like I'm not ever going to make it to my goal because despite losing about 15 lbs. I am not seeing much difference. Tonight I…

Mindset change that I noticed
So, I know this is not a huge hoooray or anything but this is kind of a big thing for me.. My wife is pregnant and having crazy cravings for beef and other things that I do not want to eat and a month back or so I would have just caved and put away a big ole burger or 2 with some fries and why not add a shake to that. Last…

NSV:I have eyes!
My mother asked me the other day... when did your eyes change? I was like HUH!!?? After going through pictures and watching my weight yo yo for all these years... the heavier I got, the more squinty my eyes got... Now that I am going back down again, my big blues are starting to pop again! It was something I never noticed…

NSV
I know this is probably kind of silly, but I jokingly went to flex for my mom the other night and realized.... I HAVE MUSCLES!! You can't see them quite yet, but you can DEFINITELY feel them. I didn't know I had any muscles in my arm other than my biceps. THEY DO EXIST!!

First weight loss
It seems a bit trivial compared to all the great success stories posted on these forums, but today I posted my first net weight loss since joining MFP about a month and a half ago. I've been having a terrible time trying to stay under my recommended daily calorie intake and have become quite adept at finding little cheats…

My NSV--Running! C25K
I just completed the Couch to 5K program tonight. I ran for 3 miles! It took me 54 minutes (am nowhere near the 10 minute mile pace) but I did it! And ran for 54 minutes straight! When I started the program 9 weeks ago, I could barely run for 1 minute without feeling like I was going to have a heart attack!

NSV... Clothes!
For the first time since I can remember, I got dressed this morning without looking in the mirror critically and changing ten thousand times before finding something I decided was acceptable. I just pulled my clothes on, nodded in the mirror and went about my day. I used to dream about this day, never thought it would come…

On my way!
I'd lost 5 lbs before MFP, then another 42 after joining. I just cant believe how big my head was! LOL

Had to grab a nurse..
It's nothing big but..... I weighed in this morning here at work. I had to grab a nurse to make sure I was seeing it correctly. She said YEP, you lost 12 pounds! Wow it feels wonderful, but I still don't see it yet. I haven't got my first, "WOW you look thinner", yet. But still not discouraged.
