I now have the right head game, i just hope i keep it up.

I need to lose 40lbs.

Wish me LUCK!!

(I will also be using 30 day shred so if anyone has used it please let me know how you got on?)

    Good luck!! You can do it, and this site is full of great info to help you along!
  • good luck and you will do great. I started a week ago and lost 6lb, so if I can do it any one can as I don't really have support, i just go on the message boards and get motivated that way,
  • Goodluck Sophie! And to everyone else!
    I'm hoping to lose 15-20 pounds on this.
    Let's all stay motivated!
  • Thank you for your support. I cant wait to get home from work now and do some exercizing!!! ( spelling isnt that good =/ ) hehe

    If support and motivation are what you are looking for, you have come to right place. Making this journey with likeminded people make it so much easier than going it alone. Be encouraged.

    Hey Sophie! I have A LOT to lose, but I'm very satisfied with mfp. Logging in everyday has been a Godsend for me! Instead of THINKING I'm doing okay, I see exactly how I am doing, and when I "fall off the wagon", I see how very near the wagon is to me and that I can still get back on it quickly if I get up NOW! I love this site.
    The best advice I can give you is to log in every day! And good luck!

    P.S. I'm a long way away from being able to do 30ds, but I congratulate you on your initiative!

    Work hard and have fun. In the event that you might falter a little and forget to log on or get too busy to keep track of things, just remember not to beat yourself up over it. This is tough, and it won't be smooth sailing the entire way, so just be prepared for that. ^u^.

    Hi, welcome. Please feel free to add me. If you are like me, you could use all the friends possible for encouragement. I too am doing the 30 day shred....finished day 4 yesterday.
  • Don't look at it as starting your diet. Look at it as you are changing your life. It is not a diet, it is life change.

    So true, it changes your whole life for the better.

    Hi
    Just joined MFP two days ago. Already has helped me be more aware of just how many calories i have been consuming even when I think I am dieting. My friend and I are really addicted to this.. :happy:

    Good luck!!! I started using MFP in June. I did really well for 4 months but fell off the wagon around the holidays. I have gained back the 9lbs I had lost. I'm back up and running now...started exercising again and trying to get my healthy on. I wish you all the luck in the world to stay focus and achieve your goal. :happy:

    Hi my name is Len Lund and the MFP is one of the best tools I have used to actually see what I put into my body........WOW is it had to find something in our markets that is good for us. One thing that has worked for me is of course exercise and eating right. I discovered Body by VI and have become a independent distributor, the product is great!!!!!! Promots healthy living, great energy and for me personally a loss of 26 lbs and down to 170 on cholesterol. I have had high cholesterol all my life and it has never been so low, doctors told me to keep doing what ever I am doing. If anyone would be interested in learning more or try the product please let me know. You can also contact me lenlund@hotmail.com or phone 218-269-7003 thanks. :happy:
  • You are all so supportive. Thankyou I wish you all luck. Keep the spirits high :) xxx
