    Hello! I've been logging in my diary for just over 110 days. I've lost 33 pounds and find the system really great. What I like is I can keep track of everything easily, including exercise and this helps me with portion control. I"m already a healthy eater, but I can eat a lot. MFP has worked great for me. Feel free to friend me!
    Good luck!

    Hi there! I just recently began as well. I'm not doing herbalife, I'm just doing a 30 day Zumba challenge. I think a great motivator is having a buddy system - and doing something that will keep you consistent (obviously, duh me!) The reason I'm doing the Zumba challenge is because hours after working out I felt the results and that motivates me to keep doing it because obviously it working. And I sweat like a catholic in church! I'm on day 4 and I can barely move... Feel free to friend me if you want!

    Hello,my nameis Courtney I was told by my physician to come here as this is another self help tool. I have been working with my Dr. since June 2012 and to date I have lost 19 lbs as of yesterday. I'm excited that I have done so, but have a koing way to go. I take Zumba classes 4x a week and have noticed a change with body. I encourage everyne I meet to at least try a class. My weight was 230 and now I'm 211. It's all about eating right and knowing what I'm putting into my body. This morning was a real eye opener when logged in my breakfast..but I know this will help me learn about the importance of nutritional food and how much calories, fat etc,.are in the foods that i eat. I'm excited about my loss but even more excited that my journey has just begun and already seeing results. It's amazing what you can accomplish when you put 100% into it! Ifyou ever need encouragement or just want to chat abiut things, go ahead and reach out as we're all on this site to acheive the same goal!

    Hello there, I have noticed that for me what works best is traditional healthy diet and exercise! I have a very hectic life style and if I can make time for health and fitness I know you can! I am a single mom who also has a full time job, I am away from home 12hours a day. When I get home its dinner, bath, and bed for my son. However, some nights I try to incorporate him into my workout routines, like dancing with him in my arms, Letting him sit on my chest while I do sit ups and using him to bench press. He is only 1 1/2 so for him it is having fun with mommy and it makes for a great workout!

    Feel free to add me for support!

    I decided that I was going to change my life starting Jan. 3, 2013. I had lost 30 lbs before a few yrs ago and know that I can, just need to get over the 3 month hump.

    Since starting, I used Leslie Sansones walk at home DVDs and Ive joined the gym. I use the elliptical and treadmill. I need to start weight training to tone things up now that Ive been working on cardio for awhile. I go to the gym 5-6 times a week. I started only working out for 30 mins, but I'm up to 60 min now and sometimes longer, depending on what I'm doing. Last night I burned 796 calories in an hour on the treadmill at 3.1 mph and a 6.0 incline.

    I dont have any receipes to share just yet as I am struggling with that myself. I have been TRYING to eat more fruits and veggies, but sometimes its hard. I guess if it were easy, everyone would be doing it. :)
