Welcome!

Welcome to the group! Nothing but good vibes here... I'm 100% positive we can all reach our goal if we put our minds to it. Support is a BIG part of the process and that's what we're here to do. Questions? ask away... feeling down? just reach out to us. So happy you're here!! :)

    I'm already excited about this group. I haven't had any sweet for 12 days because I was scared of the high calories. The recipe that was posted gave me ideas :-) Something I can enjoy at 100 calories or less. Bring it on!!!!!!!!!

    Tough day for me. Kids birthday party with chocolate frosted devil's food cake (that I made) and plenty of pizza. Even had a well-deserved beer. Still managed to come in under my calorie goal though. Reset button for tomorrow.

    Well today I was supposed to work, but I got there and found out the person who I was covering for canceled his vacation. So I am back home relaxing. :smile:

    Hope everyone has a great weekend.

    Hi everyone! Had one of those tempting moments at a restaurant tonight where I wanted the worst of the worst on the menu...but I remembered how many hours on the elliptical it would take to burn it off and made a good choice instead. It's so hard when you love food as I do!

    Good luck to everyone on the last 25 pounds, or whatever your lucky number is. I hope all this working out pays off and one morning its like boom-goal weight! I get tired of the struggle but love the motivatoin from some great MFP friends. Thanks to NYCC111 for the idea and group! Good luck everyone!
  • This is a great group! I need all of the support I can get. I'm coming back after about a 6 month break and gaining 15 pounds back of the 30 I had lost. I'm excited to be back on track (and glad I didn't gain it ALL back lol). Go Go Weight Loss!

    Well I went shopping to try on clothes for Disney trip
    I obviously felt thinner than I look
    When I looked in the mirror I was shocked
    I am gigantic
    I made a decision that moment that I would never weigh more than I did at thAt moment again
    Disney will be a CHALLENGE but I'm going to track all I eat and swim a lot
    I'm in a wheel chair and I've had four major open heart surgeries so I need to do this for myhealth and to look and feel good
    Goodbye size 26 never need to buy you gain
    I'm looking forward to motivation from this group and I will be your cheerleader S well

    Hi All!
    I have been logging on myfitness pal and successfully have lost thirty pounds...but got off track the last few months and have gained back 10. I am looking to get back in line and stay in line. I will need support and am excited to be a member of the group.
  • Hi everyone! My all time high weight was 207 at 5 foot 10 inches tall, but I got down to 145 and kept it off for quite awhile. Unfortunately, I got EXTREMELY lazy about exercise and stopped tracking my food and ate junk food out way too much, and inevitably, I regained some of my weight back. I am now at 170, and hope to return back to 145. I am trying to look on the bright side -- at least I am not 207 now! I hope to get to know all of you better as I try to get back to where I need to be. :-)

    Shame on me, I still haven't posted.

    I'm pretty excited about this group, it's just been a busy couple weeks. My goal is 125-130. I am 5'2" and got up to 155.6 this past Christmas. That is my heaviest weight ever and I'm not too happy about it. My doctor put me on a 1000 calorie diet which is actually helping quite a bit. I'm finally back to where I was last year (147) so any progress from here on out will be actual progress!!! Whoo!
