in Introduce Yourself
Hi there -- I'm in a food rut. And I'm finding that I need some help and motivation!

I'm 5'3, started at 158, now at 147 and I'm STUCK. For three weeks now. And prolably (or likely), it's WHAT I'm eating, and not just how much.

Looking for members with open diaries to help me be held accountable AND for me be inspired/get ideas on how to change eating.

Any adds would be amazing. Thanks!

    Hello there!

    Feel free to take a look at my diary, I think I have almost 6 weeks of entries in there; the first 3 were spend doing Phase 1 of the South Beach Diet, so I was focusing more on fats and proteins with very little carbs. I've gradually been stepping up the carb count but am keeping it lower than normal.

    Getting into a food rut is extremely discouraging and can easily break a diet; so best of luck to you, I hope you kick it!

    Hey there,
    I am 5'2'' and I started with a weight over 154 lbs. I came to MFP when I was stuck in late 140s. (I am about 4 lbs away from my goal weight.) My diary is open and I have been losing consistently :=) (woo!) Feel free to take a look at my food diary. I should add that I do not log in my exercise in MFP because I think it highly overestimates calories burnt via exercise.

    Ditto. Looking at other people's food diaries gives me great ideas for different things to eat. Mine's open to friends so you can friend me (although don't look at today. I had lunch out with my daughter and ate a burrito. But it sure was gooooood)

    My diary is open! Feel free to peek creepster-style or add me as a friend.

    I've only been on MFP for a week or so... Since it's been such a short time and one night I went on a Kashi Roasted Veggie pizza binge and another night I had a bottle of red wine for "dinner" I may not look like the best plan to follow, but for the most part I'm a good eater :)

    I've been on MFP for a little while but have just returned (just like yourself). I lost a total of 32 lbs about 4 years ago and have kept it off but have yet reached my goal weight so I thought I would come back and start over and hopefully get the last 20-25 lbs off for good. I don't have a lot in my diary since I've just returned today but my diary will be open for all to see, so please feel free to add me as a friend. Thanks

    Mine is open to everyone; friends or not. There's a reason I eat the way I do; if you are interested/intrigued/surprised/curious, just ask.
