Well ladies yesterday I tried on wedding dresses for the first time- happy that I'm 2 sizes down from what I would have been trying on, but want to keep this train rolling! (I am extremely fortunate to have a wonderful mother in law, and even more fortunate that she is an amazing seamstress and offered to make my wedding…
So my scale-related goal is to get down to 135, BUT my oh-so-fun, non-scale goal is to go as She-Hulk for Halloween (and to look the part with my muscles!!!) Anyone else?
Hello All, Hopefully everyone has enjoyed their weekend- the Canadian prairies were rainy but still a delightful time. So let's all get to know one another as only MFP could ask- what's your favourite way to work out? Is it weights that make you smile? The treadmill that tickles your fancy? Are you an athlete competing in…
Hi Ladies, Hump Day is upon us! (Or Wednesday if you prefer). How about we share some inspiration, clear the air on what we're working on and motivate each other? What is something that challenges you with losing weight? What has made you successful? I'll start :) What challenges me is procrastinating. It seems I can do…
Hey lovely ladies! Are any of you bored eaters like me, i.e. you eat when you're bored? I've been trying to break my habit. I tell myself "I'm not hungry, just bored" and try to remind myself I'm losing weight. What ways have you tried to break the habit?
Hello and Happy "Hump Day" to you all! So I was struggling to think of a fun challenge for today- and then my mind started to wander. And then as I was day-dreaming, as I usually do, I started to get distracted and get a bit silly. Like rolling on the floor the same way that little kids roll on the grass (Hopefully I'm not…
Hello lovely ladies! It's another manic Monday so let's start this week off with an energetic BANG :) Your challenge, should you choose to accept, is Festivus-like in nature, despite the lack of decorative aluminium pole. That's right- it's time for the Feats of Strength! I'm calling this challenge the 5by5. It goes…
I am getting married for the 2nd time on Sept 7th of this year. I have been wanting to lose weight since getting engaged on Valentines day and weighed in at 225 (I am 5'7" & 58 yrs old) so far lost 20 lbs and put 5 of that back on after travelling for work and just slipping down the old well worn slippery slope of food…
I'm really ashamed. I went over my calories by over 1000 yesterday. I can do okay most of the time but when there's a picnic or social function involved all hell breaks loose. What's worse, I went tover on Memorial day too... probably by 1000- 1500. I was so ashamed I stopped logging. Perhaps I ought to avoid social…
Hello to all! Let's start off with some introductions: who are you, when's the big day (or estimate if nothing is set), what's your current weight (if comfortable sharing), what have you got to lose to get to your goal (inches, lbs, fitness achievement, etc), and how you plan to achieve it I'll start: Dana, no date set in…
