ALL - This is my first MFP post in about...10 years. I'm finally ready to lose my 100 lbs. It just feels different this time. I am open to the idea of being involved in the community, but I can be overwhelmed by the sheer volume of people and posts. I would like my efforts to be meaningful for me and for those I am in contact with. I think I am mostly looking for a team. A small group of people who become important to each other and who can really commit to the team. I'm not even sure if this is a good place to post this request, but it seemed like the thread that might most likely fit what I was looking for. I'm not sure the best way to accomplish this or if anyone is interested. Let me know. I am even thinking perhaps we take the small group off of the MFP to texting or some other form of contact that is a little more personal.
A few things about me -
* 38, female, Utah
* 5'6", 246 lbs
* Goal is: 145 lbs-150lbs-ish
* I work as an accountant at a University.
* I'm going to school for my Master's at night.
* Married, 1 teenage stepson lives with us 100% of the time.
* 1 Golden Retriver/Irish Setter mix
* I love food, cooking, gardening.
* I like to spend time in the mountains.
* I am striving to track all my meals.
* Weights - MWF
* Bike/Elliptical - TuTh
* Long Walk & Yoga - SatSu
* I can't weigh-in every week. It creates disordered eating behaviors.
* Weigh-in every 6 weeks.
* No firm date to finish my weight loss, but within 3 years when I am finished with my Master's seems nice.5 -
I’ve lost 15 pounds so far. My goal is to lose another 90 over the next year to 18 months.1

I'm with you all. I've lost 18 pounds since Aug. 12th, 100 to go! Looking forward to that tummy tuck and breast lift to reward myself. We can do this! Now if I can figure out why when I close out my food tracking for the day, it tells me that in 5 weeks I will be 9 pounds heavier than I am right now even though I am staying within my set calorie count. Good luck to all!1

HELP!!!! this is day 21 with no weight loss & daily workouts
@mendezcristina92 check your measurements. It's possible you're losing inches but not weight. You can also try tweaking something in your diet. Have a high carb or high calorie day and then back to the norm. I started at 343 pounds and I'm currently bouncing between 240 and 247. My current problem is too many high carb days.0 -
Overall Starting weight 343
October Starting weight 247
Goals: Log daily, NO CANDY, focus on fruits and veggies after protein, 100 oz of fluids a day, weights 3x a week, walking 30 minutes a day.
Challenges: work has a table full of candy for their "Operation Santa Claus" fund raiser. For 25 cents you can purchase a Lindt Chocolate Truffle (a weakness), or a $1 gets you a cup of candy (hershey's miniatures). Last month I indulged because I happened to have cash on me after my morning coffee. This month, I'm buying a gift card at the coffee shop for my coffee and not carrying the cash so I'm not tempted.
Fluid intake - I have an app to help me track my fluid intake and it's set to a stretch goal of 110 oz.
Exercise - I have a friend at work who is also trying to stay in some sort of shape and is my walking buddy on our 15 minute breaks. Weights I can do at home on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I want to do a plank challenge - I think I have an app for that which I just need to reload onto my phone.
Advice needed - I am starting IVF so no strenuous exercise like jogging or running, and I'm likely going to be having some water weight fluctuations to go with my mood. We're starting Clomid this month (stimulates ovaries) to see how my body reacts to the cheap meds before moving on to the injection meds next month. Do I bother weighing myself or just focus on my habit goals?1 -
Me as well, ive got 120/30 lbs to lose. Was always a healthy weight until I ballooned a couple of years ago on fast food and really want to get back in shape.0

I've lost 10Kg, and want to lose 10Kg more. What tricks do you guys use to avoid making bad choices in the day. That seems to be the issue for me, I choose the wrong thing, although when I've pre-prepared there is no need to choose and it works, but that takes time! Catch 221

I'm in! I lost over 110 pounds 5.5 years ago and was able to maintain for a long while but due to life stresses and other uncontrolable circumstances I gradually gained back almost 75. I've done this before and know I can do it again but having this extra support and motivation would be even better. I'm new on MyFitnessPal, I used Spark People the first time around so not sure how the community works around here but add me!0
