Patting myself on the back
I've been on this site for about 2 weeks and saturday we went to a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. I ate a nice big healthy breakfast before we left have a tall glass of water. When we got there I played with my Daughter did not eat any pizza and only had a diet coke until I got home and could have something I cooked. In…

Great First Week!!
2.2lbs down! I really didn't expect to have such a good success the first week, first weeks can be soooo hard- and I think I need to give a little credit to the possible pms-bloating that may have padded the initial weigh-in (had forgotten that when I weighed that day)-- but, hey, a loss is a loss and I will take it and do…

I am 2 weeks into MFP and I feel better than I have in a long time. Tracking my food this way, I now realize just how much I was eating before! Reading all of your success stories and looking at your before and after pictures keeps my on track whenever I'm craving something. You guys are such an inspiration!

Half Way!
Reached my half way mark today!!! I can hardly believe it's happening. I walk by a mirror and can't believe it's me! Started January 1st, and here I am, half way there. Everyone keeps asking me, "What are you doing?" and my answer is: "Move more, eat less!!!" The magic is in doing the work yourself and logging everything.…

Wonderful World of WHOO HOO!
Since I've started MFP this is WHOO HOO moment # 2: I have this pink belt that was going to match my outfit for today perfectly, only thing is that I haven't been able to wear it for years. I grabbed it to try it and WHOO HOO it fit (its on the last notch but atleast its ON). The last time I remember TRYING to fit in this…

over 9 inches lost!
Well I just took measurements today compared to January. I know that a lot of the loss is from losing the pregnancy weight and such, but my scale has been pretty much at a stand still. I've only lost 4 lbs since Jan, but I've lost over 9 inches in my total body--including 2 inches on my abs! WOO HOO!!! Good to see some…

ABBBSSS!!
Holy Cow I have ABS!! I've still got plenty bodyfat to lose but first of all I can see my abs when I'm flexing, I can feel each separate "pack" and now I'm getting that little separation line between the right and left side above my belly button!! Score ONE for Jules!! :happy:

I just taught myself how to hula hoop!
It only took me 19 years. :laugh: It's small, and not weight related. (Though, my heart rate got up pretty high!) Still, I'm pretty darn happy about it. :bigsmile: It's always been one of the things that "I can't do." Now I can! Now...if I can just get that darn whistling thing down... :grumble: :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:

The Torture of the Food Addiction
I have overcome one of the biggest challenges I have personally ever faced... Food Addiction. Just like a drug I used food to comfort my self. I needed to constantly be around food and the mental compulsion to over eat was ruining my life. I am grateful to God, my church family, my wonderful co workers, the staff at…

Body Fat % Results
I went to our community rec center today to have my body composition tested. I'm close to my desired weight, but wanted to be sure my body fat % was following. I was pleasantly surprised! He did 3 tests for me. First, a standard bioelectrical impedance test, then an athletic bioelectrical impedance test, and finally a good…

For the past 2 weeks I've been exercising (and watching my calorie intake for about 4 days now thanks to MFP).

But most of all, My Fitness…

Steppin it up!
A couple of years ago in college, my best friend (a guy) and I used to go to the gym every morning at 7:30:noway: . Of course, we were usually the only ones there at that time. Being super competitive, my goal was to stay on the elliptical at least as long as him. Long story short, after a short time I was often burning…
