Hi All: My weigh day happens to be Sunday, so I thought I'd start the thread for weekly weigh ins. You don't have to disclose your actual weight, if it makes you uncomfortable-- just post how many lbs down you are. I'm at 252.0 as of this am. (Down 1 lb from mid-wk). This is going to be my start weight. So, I'm actually…
Just curious! I know im not.... But I'm ok with that :smile: I should have stopped fooling around in the summer! I'm back on track for the past two weeks. My goal was to go from 222 to 170 and as of today i am 214... If I followed the plan i would be out of the 200 by now. Anyway, here I am , didnt give up and i want to at…
I've been having a rough patch in the last weeks... My weight didn't go down much but I ain't giving up! I am not defeated:smile: I know why I haven't had the results I want... I've been eating pretty bad and not exercising on top of it on quite a few days. I'm done now, I think I still have time to reach that 50 pounds! I…
Hi friends, I did some research on how to kick my weight loss into high gear and I came across this "diet" over the weekend, called the "17 Day Diet". Seems like a great program. I've just ordered the book and wants to start as soon I can. Is there any one here who wants to join in? I see there are a few groups on MFP…
Hi everyone!!! so excited for this challenge! Here's what I'm doing to lose 50 lbs by NYE. I re-added and I believe I need to lose nearly 2.5 lbs/wk. I know for 2 lbs/wk it's 1000 cal deficit, so I need to crank that up and get more exercise and keep on target for my cals- no excuses! I am going to accomplish this by…
Does anyone know how to add pix on MFP? I know I've seen instructions before, but couldn't find any :( Someone else messaged me about this idea, and I thought it was an excellent idea, for anyone who wanted to participate!!!
Hey guys! I'm wondering if there would be any interest in maybe having some mini challenges along the way to keep us focused and on track? Any thoughts on this or ideas for said challenges if there is interest? :smile:
Morning MFPers :) So today represents exactly 5 months and 1 week left in our challenge! Hopefully most of you are already down some, and that much closer to our NYE goal. I myself fell off a bit, and maintained to gained last week (for some reason my scale didn't sync, and I don't recall 100% my weight- blah!). In any…
Just wondering what most of you are setting your calories at for the challenge? I plan on keeping mine at 1200 and not eat my exercise calories back. However I will have one meal a week that I don't count calories or obsess about! What are YOUR plans!
I want to suggest to all of us doing the 50 pound challenge to include weight lifting in our schedules. I am a personal trainer and massage therapist and the results I have seen in others who have lifted while losing is incredible. Many of our fears with lifting are unfounded, we won't bulk up (the women in the group) and…
