Sunny Tucson, AZ!

I'm waiting anxiously for the Feb post too. Excited to join an active online running group. Ready to start logging some miles...

I'm late joining but I'm in and ready to work hard and stay focused for the next 6 weeks. My target date is March 15. Date: 1/30/17 Starting weight: 149 Weekly weight: 2 lb loss 2/1: 147 2/8: 145 2/15:143 2/22: 141 3/1: 139 3/8: 137 3/15: 135 Goal weight: 135

Thanks for this challenge. I'm definitely in! My primary goals for Feb are to stick to my daily calories and to log consistently every day. Starting weight : 163 Current weight : 149 February's goal : 140 Ultimate goal : 135 Wednesdays will be my weigh-in day. Good luck to everyone!

Glad you're here! This is a good place for ideas. You might consider making 1-2 changes each week so you don't get overwhelmed. Making a menu each week and then a corresponding grocery list keeps us on track. We haven't cut out all flour, etc. but we do not eat much out of packages, pretty much make all meals from…

Yes to oranges! Especially this time of year, since they're in season, and they help boost the immune system. We are also loving raw beets - traditional red ones and also golden beets. I love them roasted but they are something else entirely raw. So, so good!

I stick to 1200 cals. per day and eat 1/2 cup old fashioned oats every morning. It's truly the foundation to my day. For a long time I added 1/2 a banana for some sweetness but cinnamon works too. These days I do add a bit of sugar but I measure everything very carefully and eat meagerly at lunch. My oatmeal stays with me…

Thanks everyone for sharing all those ideas. I'm okay on sugar right now because I count all my calories and plan my food in advance but sugar (all forms) has always been my downfall and weakness. It's a good thing I like raw veggies as I am good about drinking tons of water. I'm going to try the cinnamon apple idea, the…

Today was my 5th day since getting back to MFP. I put on jeans and didn't feel quite as much like a stuffed sausage as I did last week. One day at a time and those jeans are going to feel better and better, maybe even with some loose material. Good luck with the weekend! Stay strong everyone!

Just for today, 1/22: - The scale didn't move today but I will stick to my calories. - I will not get discouraged and stray off track. - I will log all my calories for a 4-day streak. - I will get some miles in. Running would be best, but a good walk okay also.

I would love to gain ideas from clean eating friends. Please add me! My diary is open to keep me accountable! I'm back to MFP to lose the 8-10 lbs. that have crept back in the past year. For me, it's all about the calories and the self control. I've got a voracious sweet-tooth and I over-indulge. While my family is no…

Sugar cravings are so, so hard. The usual...brush your teeth, chew SF gum, distract yourself, keep busy, drink lots of water. It will pass. Tomorrow your will power will be even stronger! (Going to try the tea...)

Yes, me too! I need MFP friends! I have 10 pounds to lose to feel really, really great! I'm a mostly healthy eater I just lose it when it comes to desserts (yes, plural). I don't log my daily running because I don't want it counted as extra calories.

Oh goodness! Everyone's posts are so motivating! I'm 21 days late in starting but it's never too late right? And I so need this focus and accountability to myself right now. I want to have 10 pounds less of me by the end of February so here goes... Just for today, 1/21: - I WILL get in my run today before dinner. - I will…

Thanks for the motivation! I'm in! I need to lose 10 pounds by the end of February. I have a 5K and I do not need to be carrying around extra me for that! Here's how I'm going to get there: - 1000-1200 calories a day. - Log every bite, every day. (Sadly, it all counts, doesn't it?!) - Run (or at least walk) every day. No…
