    I guess within every online community someone has to make snarky remarks behind the safety of their keyboard.

    They wouldn't last long doing it in real life. :bigsmile:

    You're welcome to add me. I'm really more about persistence rather than motivation. When the motivation fades, persistence drives me on.
    I envy your mindset! I am so stubborn and persistent when it comes to everything else, but for some reason, I don't know how to apply that to my weight loss. I look forward to hearing from you!

    Well, today is July 23, 2013. Someone told me about this site so I tried it out and here I am. My first day. I hope to have many many more days on this site with increasing successes. Today I added all of what I ate and it said I am 660 calories over my goal for the day. This is at 2pm. Depressing. I see this is going to be like climbing up a steep wall to get out of the hole I've dug for myself... but I'm here to try.

    It gets easier to stay within the goal, One thing I have learned is to eat your filling foods first, veggies, and fruit will have lower calorie counts so you can eat a bit more of them and feel full. Also drink lots of water! I always try to drink my body divided by half in fluid oz of water...Im 150 lbs so I drink 75 fl oz a day. I hope that helps!

    Feel free to add me I can be supportive.... my husband also works a demanding schedule and has a physical job so I dont ask him to work out with me.... I have found a ton of support here on MFP.

    My mom and dad are the same way. My Dad stands on his feet 8 hours a day. He doesn't workout with us. So I supported my mom and she is in the 440's( used to be 527) . She did it for her kids.

    I think what you and your mom are doing is amazing and congrats to her for her amazing progress thus far!!! Keep it up!
