    Hi Everyone!

    I'm only 10 days into my journey, my starting weight was 230.6 lbs and as of this morning I weighed 223 lbs. My goal weight is 180 lbs. I'm very excited to have found myfitnesspal.com and this team...I really believe I'm ready to do get rid of the extra weight once and for all!!

    Good luck to everyone!!

    Happy Saturday. OK, I'm a virgin to MFP blogs and I have no clue how to do this. I really want to be on a team for my new journey into better health and weight loss = I need friends here! Thanks GREEN Team for picking me up. So I'll post this here and someone can hopefully help me figure out the right way and right place for my blogs. I love the weight scale/slides and the quotes many of you have. Someday, with lots of help from you all, maybe I too will have this down. For now, here's my scoop: Day 1 weight = 212; Day 3 weight (today) = 210; goal is a whole lot of weight loss, 70 lbs would be fantastic but I just plan to take one day at a time and celebrate my NO GAIN days because for me that will be a victory. I am tired of watching my weight rise monthly, sometimes daily and I could really use some friends to help me stay focused.
    Thanks and somebody PLEASE help me figure out this blog business.

    Ok Ramb great post! It helps to say things out loud! First of all some people are better out blogging then others. I myself cannot spell worth a crap, and have horrible grammer. But I find if I just say whats on my mind or my true feeling, everyone gets it. Second of all just tell us what you want to do specific and we will walk you thru it. It took me 3 month to ask someone how to add my current weight and goal weight at the bottom of my ticker. Don't wait that long. So let us know and if I don't know I will find out for ya.:smile: A peice of motherly advice, Don't weigh yourself daily or you will drive yourself nuts. We all done or still do it and it puts a lot of stress on your self. But if you do you got to say to yourself it ok if I can a pound today and make the next day a better day. There are other ways to measure your success, Like Keyya said measure yourself, you will seee changes in that faster then weight . your go by what you did each day that was better than the day befor.

    OK. There are several things I would like to do and I just checked out the techno section on the message board and I still don't get it. I use computers everyday at work but not like this so this stuff is tough for me. I'll work on one thing at a time: first thing I'd like to accomplish is to put one of those ticker/weigh tags on my site. How do I do this; step by step please?
    And yes, I agree with your NOT weighing- in daily advice. I weigh myself so infrequently that I was shocked when I first saw 200s on my scale. I only know those two recent weigh- ins because I thought I needed them for my journey and postings. I also have been dealing with health issues, nothing major at this point, so my numerous doctor visits begin with weigh- ins and that's when I started to realize my weight was quickly getting out of hand. Good advice from you, though...........and believe me, I need good advice.

    OK Ramb when you sign in your page comes up. In the top right corner should be a tab that reads Tools. Click on that and on the left side should be a square to add ticker press on that and then follow the instruction. You should have no problem, but if you do just let us know

    Ok, I exceeded the fruits and veggies yesterday with 6 servings! This challenge is gonna be a breeze!
    Gonna need some support on some other stuff though, I injured my hip/lower back 9 days ago during Zumba. I have a twisted pelvis from an accident about 20 years ago....anyway. I thought I was getting better and then Monday I stooped to pick up something and I felt a sharp pain and got stuck. Needless to say I am in excrutiating (sp) pain now. I had to find a dress for a wedding today (which I also could use alot of support after....not down 1 single size after 22 pounds...musta lost it in my head....literally) I got 4 hours sleep the pain was SOOOOOOOO bad....so I am not going to be able to participate in any challenges requiring alot of movement unfortunately :frown: which believe it or not BUMS ME OUT! I will be keeping up on my stretches and the core exercises iceprincess gave me to do.............

    Have a gorgeous Sat. and wish me luck with the eating at this Wedding.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
