Welcome back! If you want, you can add me as a friend for support!

OMG. I actually laughed out loud right at my desk at work. So gross.

Plain Lay's potato chip and ketchup sandwhiches. Yum.

28 (29 in January) female with a desk job as well. 5'10", 168 pounds (started at over 200). I also have a fitbit!! My diary is open...just don't judge all the liquor consumption...it's one of my New Years Resolutions! :smiley:

I do. Almost every single day. I walk on my morning and afternoon breaks. Sometimes with a portion of my lunch, or my whole lunch if I feel up to it and it is a nice day. Now that it is winter, I either have to brave the cold, or walk up and down the stairs during my break, both of which, let's be honest, kind of suck to…

I clean the kitchen every single day. Sometimes numerous times a day. I can't stand dirty counters, or floors, or dishes in the sink. However, open my cupboards or fridge and I will be mortified at how messy an unorganized they are.

Hey there! I'm going to be 29 in a couple weeks and I've lost almost 50 pounds. Still working to lose a few more. Sounds like we have some stuff in common! I am on the app constantly so feel free to add me and share whatever you would like!

Around 2500 for about 3 days straight... I kept to my goal of working out 3-4 days this week despite all the holiday fun though!

Piggy banks!

Me too! I want to lose 10 more. Current weight is 169.

If 20 pounds seem like too much to tackle right now. Start with 5. Once you get started and see results it will only motivate you further!

I wanted to do that too before my last pregnancy. I wanted to lose 15, didn't, got pregnant and gained 45 pounds. Don't stress about it, don't get down. I know in my case my mind was way more focused on babies and getting pregnant than about those stupid 15 pounds. After baby, I can focus more clearly on my weight loss…

I try to aim between 1600-1750 a day. I'm trying to lose about .5 lbs a week. I am 5'10' 169lbs.

Friend request sent!

I promise you everyone is focused on themselves at the gym. I can't imagine anybody taking time to even think that, and if they did, they are not the quality of people whose opinions should matter to you! Any decent person would just be wishing you well!

I have used peppers as my "chips" before, but I used salsa to dip it in. I LOVE salsa, and it is really low cal, but can really do damage if I eat it all day with regular chips. I'll have to try the cottage cheese!!

Hastings MN here!!

MFP set mine at 1200 too, but I found it maddening for the exact reasons you stated. Plus I felt deprived a lot. I went to custom settings as NoelFigart1 mentioned, and upped it to 1300.

I have it. I love it!!! Worth the price!

I would go with Subway also.

It sounds like he is married or committed to someone else.

I've had that happen too. It duplicates some of my entries. Makes my heart stop for a minute sometimes. I just delete the duplication.

It was on carpet, both at home and in the office.

My office won't give anyone a stand up desk unless they require it due to medical reasons. We are also not allowed to use stability balls as chairs for safety reasons. I had one of the bicycle ones for under my desk or watching tv at home. I don't remember the brand, but it always just slid away on me. More of a pain then…

Technically you don't "lose" anything except for the water I believe. I read somewhere that it is all just fat cells that expand when you gain weight, and shrink when you lose weight. That's why when some people get liposuction they no longer gain weight in those specific areas, because it is sucking out the fat cells,…

I log my cheat days. I don't always want to and will sometimes find me trying to convince myself that I can skip this one day, but I have not in 200 days of logging skipped a cheat day. Sometimes I actually find that I ended up eating less than I thought and I am proud. Other days I see I went a little crazy but try to…

I agree with you. I've lost weight so many times just for it to find me again after i've gone back to my old ways. I'll just be a counter for life, but I am ok with that.

I have had to do this too!!! While it was irritating trying to keep them up, I couldn't help but smile!!

Welcome back!
