    Hello:)
    I am new to joining this group and new to MFP as of this week. I have tried many diets and have goen up and down and now with the success of my mother doing weight watchers ( too expensive for me) i have decided to make it a life changing procces of counting calories and changing my diet. I am 32 going on 33 in a few months and weight 203 at the height of 5'7. I am athletically built but still have soem problem areas that I need to work on. I am excited to start and looks like there is great support in this group :) My husband and I are also now trying for our 2nd child so anyone who has been prego and still used MFP have any advice would be great :) Have a wonderful day
  • My low was on July 31...weighing in at my highest ever. I am down 16..doesn't match my tracker...I never updated the weight gain. I am feeling good. High for yesterday...my parents noticed the loss. I want to stay motivated.

    I am really struggling right now. March has been a tough month. At the end of February I came down with a nasty case of bronchitis which lasted 3 weeks. As I was just getting over the bronchitis, I came down with a stomach bug which only lasted a couple of days but through me for a loop. Now I am having problem with my back. I have had chronic back pain in my mid/upper back since my first son was born. In September 2013 I finally did something about it. I went through physical therapy and it was feeling great!... until last Thursday when I was worshipping the porcelain goddess while battling the stomach bug. Now I am in constant pain. It hurts to lift my arms and carry my kids, I want to cry if I cough or I sneeze. I have started doing the stretches and exercises that I did during PT and it is helping but ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! I am finally in the right mindframe, that i want to work out, and run and be active and healthy but I know I cant push myself right now, I need to heal. IT isn't fair!

    Pity party over!
  • Definitely struggling. For starters, I'm tired, groggy and fluff-headed. That is partially due to going overboard on wheat for three days in a row. The physical effects far outweigh the temporary good taste of the food! I feel so crummy. There's always struggles personally too. Trying to figure out who I am, what I'm meant to do, what makes me tick, etc. That's the toughest part right now. I'm so used to just being the happy-go-lucky one for everyone, putting on that smiley face. Now, all the times I did that are starting to effect me.

    My high is that I prepped lots of meat and veggies for breakfast and lunch this week. I'll have no excuses to eat out.

    Highs: I had a week off from work, I am now capable of running the equivalent of a 5K and started a 10K training program; so I'm way ahead of where I wanted to be in preparation of my 1st 5K coming up in August.

    Low: have to go back to work tomorrow and didn't touch any of the work I brought home with me
