Try leaving bread, potatoes, rice, pasta,cereal, and anything with sugar out of your diet. Stock up on Dannon yogurt, 80 calories, keep boiled eggs on hand, and turkey slices, a little fruit. Very carefully, log everything you eat. You will lose weight

The most important thing for me has been to realize it is going to take time, and I have to be patient. I have lost 45 lbs in six months, but I have another 45 to go to reach my ideal weight. Faithfully counting calories and posting them on MFP everyday is THE most important thing for me to stay accountable. I also go to…

Slow and steady will win the race! Rooting for you to be very satisfied and successful this time around

Congratulations! I, too have lost 40 lbs as of yesterday since I started this last journey on January 4, 2018. I am so excited to set a new goal and challenge of getting down under 200. I have 18 lbs to go

You should feel great about yourself!! Wonderful job

eggs, light mayo for some fat, on whole wheat. I make egg salad with just some salt, pepper and a little pickle juice and mayo. Turkey slices also stays with me. I was introduced to Farro grain. It is very good, calories similar to brown rice. I like it better than brown rice

So happy for you~I am on that journey

Lagina, that is great. My husband and I started out on Weight Watchers in January. I was losing fine, but he was not. We switched to MyFitnessPal in February, counting calories, and exercising 5-6 days a week, and have lost 24 lbs each so far. It is easier for us to stay on track by careful planning our meals and snacks,…

I know this thread goes back to 2015, but it is so inspirational!! I just started on my latest weight loss journey in January, and I and my husband are doing this together. We both have both lost about 23 lbs so far, but have about 70 lbs each that we need to lose.

my husband and I are retired and embarked on the weight loss journey together about 2 months ago. So far, we have lost about 21 lbs each. We go to YMCA gym most every day and do the Silver Sneakers classes which are a good workout and fun, and also follow a strength training plan in the weight room three times a week. So…

Use Eggland brand. I find that they will peel the easiest. I boil them for about 15- 20 min, then put them in a cold water and ice bath and peel with running water and be sure to grab the whitish membrane found just under the outer shell and as you peel it away, the outer shell comes off with it. It takes patience getting…

My husband and I are retired and attend a YMCA for Senior Silver Sneakers classes, and it is the greatest motivator we have ever had. We have met so many nice people that have become friends, and look forward to everyday that we attend the classes. When the music starts pumping, we all move together, and get a good…

Thank you ConnieAGint!!

I am new to MFP, but I will be logging in several times a day. Please add me!
