They're Loose!!!!
Ok so I know I only just posted that I'm new today but I had to share! I've been doing Zumba for about 3 weeks and really haven't seen a lot of weight loss. Also, since I'm a SAHM and honestly hate the feeling of jeans since putting on so much weight I tend to hang out in yoga pants, PJ bottoms etc. It's hard to really…

Mine are: Calories, Carbs, Fat, Protein, Cholesterol, Sodium. I was tracking sugar but found that seemed to be in possible to stay on goal. Happy Hump Day all!!!

20 pounds down!!!!
Before I started MFP, I was down from 228 to 220. But in the last month, I've lost an additioinal 12 lbs. So I'm down 20 WHOLE POUNDS!!! I'm eating a lot less (I was eating well over 2000 calories per day), I have WAY more self control, and if I don't work out, I feel like crap. I may not work out at the same time every…

Why Eating Healthy is Awesome
Proof that success isn't always weighed in pounds: My diet before: No breakfast bacon cheeseburger or chicken nuggets, a side of fries for lunch (every once in a while I'd swap fries for a salad), a soda pizza and fries or a can of ravioli for dinner Fast food is veeeeery convenient on my college campus. Really the only…

Setback didn't stop me!
I hurt my leg a week ago - not bad, I strained a ligament. This is the first time since I started counting calories & exercising 6 times a week that I needed to let my leg REST for a few days and I was really worried I'd get off track / lose my motivation. I was able to keep my calorie count without exercise for 7 days!!!…

MissesG presenting MrG
I first met my husband when I was 15 years old (i'm now nearing 25) & back then MrG weighed in at 450lbs. 7 years later he and I reconnected by chance. He had previously moved out to Whistler,BC and I hadn't seen or heard from him for 7 years. I was a friend of his brothers and had added his brother to the newfound…

Weight Loss/Fitness Buddies
There are plenty of threads for weight loss challenges, but what if we were assigned weight loss buddies to mentor each other? I personally think it would be a success. What do you think? One or two buddies for each?

Share your Victory - Tell about your MFP Experience
My experience started 3 years ago when I got sick. I was a personal trainer in the early 2000s. I was a fitness and power lifting nut. I taught people how to lift weights, eat and what cardio exercise was adequate. I taught people who were having trouble letting those bad foods go the key of 7 day plan; meaning it is about…

Billy Blanks Ultimate Boot Camp
Friday night I tried Billy Blanks Ultimate Boot Camp Dvd but was only able to do about 10 minutes of it. Tonight I done 20 minutes. I'm so proud of myself. The Dvd is an hour long so hopefully after a while I'll be able to do it all. I did it non stop though. When the moves got too difficult I just "walked it out" as he…

The truth about HCG as told by Dr. Pete Grott
I know those who live and die by HCG and have the nerve to call it a success story will sling their arrows and stare angrily at the computer screens (plus a few choice words) but I am going to post this article anyway for those who are contemplating this dangerous "Diet Fad" but have not been sold just yet. Dr. Peter…

what a great day
I walked all over Seattle today and my husband and kids wore out before I did. I ate lunch at the Old Spaghetti Factory and pushed my plate away after eating only half of my Chicken Marsala. I bought a pair of DKNY jeans in a size 8 for $2 (that's right two dollars) at a thrift store. In the past year I've started to eat a…
