Hello everyone. This is my second time trying MFP. I am actually taking advantage of everything that the site has to offer this time even down to the phone app. I am going to need everyone's help to stay on track. :) I think I am just going to take it one day at a time.

    Yes one day at a time. I know that sometimes looking at the big picture can be scary so I focus on my weight loss in incriments of fives. So i am trying to make it through this journey 5lbs at a time and week by week.

    Hi-You can do it. My husband and I tracked everything, I stayed around 1200 calories, attended a fitness challenge run by herbalife, drank 8+ glasses of water a day and tried to get 100grams of protine in. I've lost 49 lbs since June.

    You CAN do it.

    Hi,

    This is my second time too! I have such a busy schedule, and I got so down hearted the last time because I lost a lot of weight at first, and then it completely stopped. I am adding in lots of exercise this time. Have you tried Couch Potato to 5K? I am LOVING the Podrunner intervals available on itunes; it helps keep me on track and makes me focus on something other than the fact that I am running....which is something I HATE to do.
