Hi Melanie. . . I have been working on getting healthy for six months now. Early in the process one of my MFP friends commented that I wasn't eating enough protein. This was invaluable because I was logging my food for calorie content, but not paying attention to the other nutritional information. Protein is important so…

Selena: So glad Rutledge was reunited with his people. I can't even imagine the poor little guy missing for that long. Nice that you could be his angel. Went to the gym today and had a good workout. My trainer is increasing the intensity a little bit every time I go and it felt really good today to realize some gains. I…

exermom: So amazed at how you answer so many people on your log. Usually I get about two people in there for the day. Can't remember names for anything else. (Wait...Did I get your name right?) Something to aspire to some day. lol Carol in GA: If you ever find the answer to your hot/cold issues, please post it. I have the…

Thank you Mary for sharing your story. This is very encouraging to me.

strawbc: It's very hard for me to stay motivated, too. I just keep coming back on MFP and logging my food. I would be embarrassed to log pudding all day, so that would keep me from eating it. I have been slipping lately, but if I wasn't logging my food, it would be sooo much worse. It also helps me to realize how many…

Lesley: You are in my thoughts. That trip to the vet is a very hard one. Lots of hugs. CP in So Fl: I ate sugar/flour/wheat free for six years and went back to my old ways. You are right to call it an addiction...and addictions are slick. I named mine "Sid" because that's the name of my ex=H. He was slick too! I'm glad you…

Made it to the gym today for exercise class in the pool. Felt good to follow through on that. Lesley in Tasmania: Looks like you had a very busy day. Way to go! granmallie: Haven't found this app on my phone yet. Hope you had a good day at work with not so much shoveling these days. Take care all. Judy in PA

Hi Suzanne from NJ. . . welcome to the group. You'll find lots of encouragement here. Saw a sign today that I thought was funny. It said: "Sometimes when I'm on a diet, a chocolate bar jumps out of the cupboard, unwraps itself, and jumps into my mouth." Well, now I have an excuse. :wink: Hope you had a good Tuesday. Judy…

Karen from N.J.. . . I think you just joined the group when you posted! Welcome and congrats with your thyroid cancer success! I wish I could "like" the posts on here. There are so many that are inspiring to me. I had a not-so-good day yesterday! Ended up in the E.R. Neurologist thinks I am having seizures that are causing…

Thanks for the many comments on your experiences with weight loss programs. I have taken them to heart and will consider them carefully. Cold day here in PA today! Stay warm…

Good morning! I usually wait till the end of day to check in, but am getting a quick fix of encouragement before starting the day. Question: When having lots of weight to lose, is there benefit in using any of the weight loss programs out there, ie: Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, WW, Medifast, Ally, etc. I know that a meal plan…

CP - Lots of luck with your weigh-in! Anxious to hear how you make out! Today I got my first "friend" on MFP and that is Huge for me. . . I have a hard time reaching out to people. Also, I talked to the trainer at the gym today and explained to him what my personal needs are. (I met with him before, but didn't really give…

Well another day down. According to MFP, if I keep doing what I did today I will weigh the same as I do today after 5 weeks. That is not acceptable as I am 5'2" and weigh 165 lbs. What is wrong with me that I can't get my butt to the gym? Decided to go to water class today and when I put on my swimsuit it didn't cover the…

Well, I think I just deleted what I was writing before. . . ugh!!! Enjoyed reading your stories today. I had a lazy day and didn't make much progress with my energy level, but had a pretty good food day so all was not lost. Welcome wildfiremoons666. . . I am new too, as are many of the others I have read about. Hopefully,…

Hi All. . . Enjoyed reading the many posts. . . what a diverse group! Thank you for the welcome words and encouragement. I had a pretty good food day until this evening when I just had to eat the iced sugar cookies that were calling my name. Well. . . at least they're gone now! Hope no more show up! Activity level low…

Hi Everyone! I'm new to MFP and to this forum. I have various health issues and need to lose weight. Most of all, I need to improve my lifestyle as I have been very sedentary for the last few years, (suffer from depression). I have been seeing various doctors and am now seeing a weight management doctor. Just started with…
