2011 - New Year, New Me (final thread)

I have a new phone (blackberry) and I am unable to find this application on there unlike my old phone. Anyone have a blackberry w/myfitness.pal on there? If so send me a message. The one application I did find was fatsecret. I just need one I can add food as I'm eating etc. So, if blackberry doesn't have this application I will no longer be checking in. This is one reason I haven't been on here since my new phone.
Thanks for any messages/ideas!

not available yet but mike replied with this mid november....

"We are definitely doing a Blackberry app - we've already completed quite a bit of work on it and we're making great progress. Unfortunately, developing an app is just a lot of work and isn't a fast process. Blackberry has actually been the hardest to develop of all of the mobile platforms we've worked with so far, so it has been taking longer than we had hoped.

That having been said, we are full steam ahead on the app and hope to have something available shortly. Sorry for the long delay - believe me, we are as anxious to have the app available as you guys are to use it.

Thanks for your patience and hope you are enjoying the site.

YOU ARE NOT GAINING...THIS IS A GOOD THING...THIS SHOWS YOU CAN MAINTAIN BY DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING SO IN THE END WHEN YOU WANT TO STICK AROUND A CERTAIN NUMBER YOU ARE SHOWING YOURSELF YOU CAN DO IT....THIS IS A GOOD THING....change something up if you want to kickstart the losses again...new workout....adjust your calories up or down....drop something from your diet like soda or salty stuff.....get more sleep.....exercise less or more....change what you have been doing...

Thanks Denise for the blackberry update! I'll just keep looking here and there and for the mean time stick w/fatsecret app. I'll rejoin you all again once this app is up and running on my blackberry. I will see though, I might stay on here after Jan since I was accepted to grad school and doing my program all on line starting Jan 3! The issue is I'm not on my actual computer that often, but once school starts I will be forsure and I just bought a laptop! Gotta get that up and running!

thanks for the kind words above, im going to try mixing up my cals a bit, and hopefully when the dreadful ice on the footpathes outside has melted ill be upping my walking again, still hanging in there i cant afford to give up X X

Boy have I been lazy the last couple of days...over my calories EVERY day. Today I went over with hot chocolate in the morning and an Eggnog Latte from Starbucks tonight. Now I'm wrapped up on the couch and about to go to bed. It's so cold (for here at least) that I have no motivation to work out at all. I haven't worked out since last week. I really need to get on the ball. Sigh.

finally figured out what was up with the table pic from photo bucket...i had a space in the album name and it wasn't linking up...totally fixed now and i know for the future what to do right LOL.....

my goal is 199 by saturday (tomorrow) and i'm doing everything i can to get there BUT have eaten out 3 times this week for holiday stuff and i just might have to push it to next week....i'm feeling great though, still working out at least 5-6 times a week, drinking water, cutting back on diet soda (not on purpose, just drinking more water at work), eating the right amounts of food and balancing my day....i feel awesome about my progress and am not going to let tomorrow's weigh in disappoint me or set me back...

i have made sooooo many changes in my life for the better and that is more important to me than a number...4 quick examples in the last 24 hrs....
1. i planned out my meal choice for my mom's group dinner last night before i went by reviewing the restaurants dinner menu online....i choice the grilled mahimahi, steamed rice and steamed veggies and entered it into my food diary right then..
2. i went to the gym right after work before meeting my girlfriends and burned as many calories as i could on the elliptical in the limited time i had before meeting them - burned 382 calories which put me right where i needed to be if i ordered what i planned on....
3. i ordered what i planned on plus a tomato bisque soup which was only 185 calories in addition to my meal and a cappuccino that was probably about 150 calories after we ate EVEN THOUGH EVERY SINGLE PERSON AT THE TABLE - 5 OTHER GIRLS - ORDERED ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - thai pizza, chicken pot pie, orange peel chicken, Mediterranean sandwich with fries, chinese chicken w/noodles...when i told them what i was ordering they were like well i'm not being good, i definitely am getting whatever i want and damned the calories pretty much...oh well, luckily i have those here to support my decisions and share common goals....
4. this morning after i dropped my son off for school i had almost an hr before his holiday concert so i walked from his school out 25 mins and back 25 mins...got my walk done for the day since i went into work late and knew i wouldnt have time to go out later or tonight....

it's all about choices folks....and i'm finally at a place that i know what the right choices are and i'm making them...

Bluiz you are so inspiring. I haven't been working out, oh about a week now because my schedule is so crazy and it's too cold to walk outside....but I could have walked around the INSIDE of the church for 30 min yesterday.....hmmm. Have to start thinking like that.

just wanted to say well done to all of us that are struggling at the moment but not giving up, we will get there it may just take us a little longer than we wanted it too . best wishes x x x x

I had a rough weekend so I am going to wait a couple of days to weigh myself. I went out to eat on friday and what I ate didn't agree with me. :grumble: Still not feeling 100% but I am better. Hope everyone had a better weekend than I did.
