Drbcru - I've used UP for over 2 yrs if you'd like to add me

I'm going for 10,000 steps a day. Been sick and fell off the wagon but back on track w/the help of the 3 mile Express tape

Yeah for walking. I've lost 17 lbs since Jan - only walking. Over the years I've done the different machines, different classes and suffered injuries. I gave up. I've always enjoyed walking my pets and hiking so started w/the Leslie Sasone DVD's this year. I am stoked. I can keep this up and have people at work doing it.

Sounds like you had a nice day. Now today you need to get him to work out w/you. He helped you add the calories, he needs to support you in reaching your goals. Good luck

I feel for you. When you've been loosing and then don't it can be a disappointment. I also agree w/everyone that much weight loss in a month is hard on your body and it needs to adjust. You didn't put it on that fast. But try changing up your exercise if you feel you have to do something.

I'm sad. I did miss 1 day of working out, not feeling well and we have a bunch of people w/the flu at work. But I have kept on track w/my calories and the scale didn't budge. Will have to step it up next week

Walking is good since you were focused on it. Good for you.

Good for you Carri. Don't overdo. One small step will still get you there. As the weight comes off your back will thank you but not if you abuse it. Maybe you can work in exercises for your back on days you're not doing your planned workout. MFP posted some today in fact. Be safe cuz if you hurt you won't be able to do any…

I'm really enjoying these challenges for weight & miles. They are helping me to stay motivated - even though Jan didn't go great on the weight loss I started exercising again and sticking w/it as I wanted to post my miles/steps. Very proud of myself so Feb will be a good month. Name: Donna Age: 58 Height: 5'2" Start weight…

Hi Marjorie - we're about the same build haha. 5'2, 160. I looks like the group that did the Jan challenge is doing a Feb one. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10071444/february-2015-weight-loss-challenge#latest

Baby steps, 1 thing at a time. I've been like that so that I just gave up. Well, I started in Nov. Just the logging - it was new to me. And it made me aware and I started paying attention and making choices. Not 'dieting', just choices. Didn't even tell anyone. Then in Jan I added water (hate to drink water), that was a…

Good job Jen. You're sticking w/it. I made my next goal a little less but that doesn't mean I'm not going for all it's worth.
