I've been on MFP for a couple weeks not. My husband turned me on to it. He is so inspiring and motivated. I am motivated as well, but this time to make a lifestyle change.

We've both realized that we can't eat the way we used to. But that also means I am cooking all the time and grocery shopping nearly 5 times as much.

Total, I've lost over 10 pounds and 12 inches. I'm doing well, but I noticed I am just doing enough. I don't push myself in the gym as I should and need motivation and support to keep going on this up-hill climb.

Thank you,
Melissa

    I'm exactly the same way. I joined this community so that i could have a motivational influences. Feel free to add me and I will be a cheerleader for you as long as you will return the favor. This weight loss journey is a long one indeed, but even the longest journeys begin with a single step. Baby steps and you'll get there. :) We will make it together.

    Well you sound like you have a healthy approach. You know some changes need to be made and you are making them, that awesome! Its all about small changes that slowly creep up to make life changes - good for you!

    And sounds like you have a lovely man by your side to encourage you, (and you him) - you are a lucky girl!

    I feel like I do more cooking and grocery shopping to but I think its because I'm doing more with the ingredients I have and constantly buying more fresh fruit and vege. So much good produce year round and its so good for us!

    Keep at it - we are all here to help!
