    Me too but I started in August 2014 and lost almost 30 pounds by November through diet and walking an average of 12,000 steps per day. I gained seven pounds back between Thanksgiving and New Years but now I'm back on the straight and narrow. I wouldn't mind tracking that 50 pounds (my goal is 30 more) with you.

    @cortezsabrina17 I haven't started the gym yet. 1. it intimidates me so I'm a bit worried about going. 2. It's seems like coming off the pop and junk food is making me feel sick. I'm lethargic and almost feel like a have the flu

    So don't go. At least not yet. In the meantime get an activity tracker like a Fitbit or Garmin (I have a Garmin Vivofit 2) and start tracking your steps. If you do it everyday and sync your walking to MyFitnessPal you will soon see remarkable results. Before long you will eventually build up enough confidence to hit the gym. Just don't over do it :smile:

    I went to a steakhouse and was so excited to get meat but instead i got salad

    Not all salads are equal to light. Stay clear of dressings poured over the salad, get it on the side and use sparingly. sometimes salads are more calories than steak.

    @shathaway123 the one thing I noticed tracking my food is how horrible I have been with portions. Plus if you eat out that's not even a rational amount of food but we've almost trained ourselves to finish the plate. Time to break that cycle!

    This is a really great tool, I was also surprised at the portions then when I started watching calories I found it hard to eat my share some days. I drink a lot of water so it keeps me feeling full when I should eat. Hang in there!

    Your post made me giggle :D I've added green shakes to help with my veggie consumption - still not ready to give up my daily cup of coffee yet... Maybe moderation is a better strategy!!! Here's to accountability

    Hi there! I started in 2014 with over 80 to lose - lost 50 in about 15 months - then life got tough, needless to say - I have gained back 13 in 6 months... so I am at around 40-45 now to lose and trying to get back to food tracking. It sucks - I hate it - but I know if I cant be honest with myself, it will never change.... we can do this together! :smile:

    Hello, I have about 60-70 to lose, already lost 100 as of last feb., but gained 10 back since Thanksgiving. I never craved chocolate, never really liked it, but I do now. don't know what changed. I have gotten back on track and lost 7 lbs since the first. Trying to exercise, but it is so difficult to follow, I have no rythym...and I am a big girl so its hard getting my feet off the ground and balance.

    You can do it for sure. Just need the right support and suggestions. I found a local Fitness Challenge that I join to help me stay accountable. If someone else is looking at the scales every week you bet I want them to move in the right direction. Good luck on your journey and enjoy it as bad a it feels sometimes
