Announcements

New members- say hello!
Hey everyone, I’m Morgan, 26 year old accounting assistant, no kids or pets but I live with my boyfriend (who is kind of like a cat). I work 37+ hours a week, hit the gym on my lunch break, taking a night class & I’m on the board of directors for two local not-for-profits. I’m from the East coast of Canada (Newfoundland)…
Next weigh in - Monday Feb. 6th
Hey ladies, hope you all had a great Monday. For everyone who posted in the first weigh in I've created the chart below. I plugged my number for next weigh in so you can see how it'll work. MFP auto crops pictures so this one had to be reduced to fit everything in-I may change it a little as we go. To be included in the…

Tips for Staying Healthy while Working Lots!
I have struggled for the last 6 months to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Partly due to the nature of my job, and the many hours I spend in the workplace in a week, but mainly; dedicating time for myself before work. I have vowed this month to go to the gym before a shift; even if I don't know how long it will be. (I…
Looking for some buddies!
Just joined - I've been a WW member for 1.5 years and have only managed to shift 30 lbs, so I'm trying something different. I'm a scientist, mom, wife, and fallen athlete (having a kid and eating too many fudgeoos will do that). Working while trying to watch my food intake is HARD! (seriously, work is hard anyway) so I'm…
Hi Everyone!!
Hi. Im Chelsey. :) Im 20 years old and have recently decided to get my life back on a healthier happier track. My goal is to lose (and keep off) 30 lbs, and to start (and continue) to work out more often and stay fit. I just want to live a healthier life style in general and to keep it that way. :) I have also decided as…
Let's have a healthy week!
How are people planning to incorporate their healthy lifestyles into their week this week? I plan on the following: 1. No alcohol - it kills my progress 2. Walk/exercise 30 minutes after work/school 6/7 days this week. Try to complete two 16 minute tabatas prior to two of my nightly walks. 3. Pack my lunches ( I went to…
Apr 16th Weigh In
Good morning all, I'm getting back into my running, and completed Week 5 Day 1 of C25K, and did Day 2 this morning. I ran for 8 minutes at a time, twice! :happy: Though I have developed a blister on the side of my foot :grumble: Last night I had KFC. I'm not ashamed. I've been grossly undereating this week, and even with…
Changing the plan
Hi everyone, I was hoping to get people's input on my new plan. Currently I'm following the automatic settings that MFP calculates for me. I'm 5'3" and 173lbs, aiming for somewhere between 126 and 140 depending on how I'm feeling on any particular day. I have a desk job, where I am literally sat on my backside for 9 hours…
Apr 9th Weigh In
Hello again! It's a lovely Easter bank holiday monday here in the UK, and true to bank holiday form... it's raining... lol :laugh: I've not done my running for yet another week, (due mainly to recovering from my asthma encouraging a flu bug and inciting my lungs into disobedience), but hoping that the weather clears up for…
Apr 2nd Weigh In
Good afternoon all, I'm a bit later posting today - did you think I'd forgotten? :bigsmile: As you have probably realised, I weigh in on a Monday. I post it on here to help keep myself accountable so that I have to own my mistakes. Feel free to join me and post too :smile: I also weigh in on the first of each month.…
Mar 26th Weigh In
Good morning! Well... not so good for me... after a week of eating like crap, I'm feeling it this morning. I've had to record an increase :grumble: , though "other factors" also play a part this week too :tongue: SW: 188 LW: 177.2 CW: 178.8 GW: 140 Don't think I'll hit my April 1st goal of 174 as I've only got about a week…
Mar 19th Weigh In
Hello again! Today will be a great day! I just know it! I'm in a great mood, and feeling very positive! Just completed Week 4 Day 1 of C25K! This means I actually ran for longer than I walked (excluding warm-up/cool-down). Whoop whoop!! :bigsmile: SW: 188 LW: 178.6 CW: 177.2 GW: 140
