Let's Try This Again

Options
Hey Folks... My name is Ryan and my goal is to lose 40 pounds by December 31st, 2012. This is my second try with MFP, the first time was successful until I lost the routine. This time I am going to do it right and look for as much support as I can so I can keep my eye on the prize.

    I'm trying this again, too, although my first attempt was more like dipping my toes in the water than a real attempt. Good luck!!!

    Hello!

    I've been on MFP for 2 months now! Trying to meet some new friends and motivators so we can work as a team to promote each other's health! Please add me! I would love to have/give support every day together! :).

    Ok ... It's all about your mindset ... thinking " I can and I will do this " makes all the difference ! Don't look at this as your second try ... how about the first time was just a glance at how good it can feel to be healthy ! Each day when you wake up ... say to yourself ... " I got this " ... Today is my day and I am in control !

    Just remember ... Attitude us everything ! :)

    Howdy everyone! Sure looking forward to the little things in life...like tying ones shoes without huffing and puffing...enjoying my reflection in the window (instead of "where did SHE come from and why is she following me???), not having to wedge my fandango into any more chairs (I KNOW the airlines shrunk the damn things to increase capacity!) and to actually TUCK IN A SHIRT without wanting to hide! So far after 20 days, I feel pretty darn hopeful for the first time!

    One thing that is pretty awesome right off the bat? I have YET to eat, in these 20 days, and need to pop the pants button, just so I could breathe after a meal! WOO HOO!

    Like I said...it is the little things!
