Morning all...boy I fell off the wagon in 2018...NEED to get back at it..worked so hard and now I am failing myself. over 50 and losing weight is hard!! my body does not like the exercising I used to do...I refuse to buy new clothes in a diff. size...sigh... Hope all is well with you all...

HI ladies...wow, I found out if I dont come back on here daily, I miss sooo much! You ladies are active and busy! SO down a pound this week so far...waited 3 days to make sure it was an actual pound and not water weight. Back on the working out schedule and feeling great! Now if I could only stop having those few glasses…

Happy Thursday ladies! Grateful we might finally get a break from all the humidity we have been having so I can weed the garden without heat stroke :o Hope everyone has a fabulous day! It's Friday Eve! Melissa in NY

Thanks Lisa - Mel or Melissa works great....

Morning ladies...just checked back into MFP after a hiatus and a big weight gain...turned 50 in February and my body hates me...had lost 55 lbs (211 to 155) 3 years ago and put 45 back on 8( Getting back into shape (by the grace of God) and need support. I homeschool our children and we are pretty active but I found my…

Hi, I lost 50 in exactly a year (yesterday) so I am looking to maintain that (maybe lose 5 more) and am scared to put it back on...would love the support... Stay at Home Mom who homeschools her 3 kiddos...active by working out each day...MFP is my right hand...been up and down over the last 20 years (going to be 48 next…

Way to go!

inspiring - you can DO THIS!

awesome...Huzzah to the New You!

Awesome feeling huh! Congrats and have a wonderful Valentine's Day with your husband!

WOW that is incredible. What type of calorie numbers are you keeping? Good for you!

Maybe the creator thought it looked like quac so that's why they called it that...not sure...but I just thought it looked great and sounded like a nice alternative...that's all...

Oh I just love anything with broccoli! lol thought it was a great alternative to those who might not like avocados too

everyone is so inspirational! Love how in the "after" pics everyone exudes confidence!

great progress! Well done!

thanks everyone for the input...learning here still.... BTW - ended up eating a little ice cream to eat up a little of those left over.....

Home educating mom from southern NY here..new to MFP and would like to connect and have friends for support...I have about 40 lbs to lose...lost 13 already since Jan. 2nd... I have four children ages 5 - 27...I home educated the 5, 7 and 11 year old...oldest is now married.

Thank you...honestly it's been very easy for me...I have tried "it all" and MFP is THE BEST ever...along with my working out, which is not much more than 30-45 mins per day...feeling great!

Thanks - makes me feel better....I was going crazy thinking I will not lose if I am not close to my daily goal....

They have me at 1400 approx per day.... I am not close to that by about 200 or so each day but today in particular I am very very short... I have lost 13 lbs since January 2nd...

. Thinking about ice cream actually..

I think weather makes a difference in my eating and wanting to eat...living in southern NY, we have not seen a lot of sun this Winter and it takes it toll on the eating...always wanting comfort foods...replaced that with hot water and lemon...

I am 5'10" and I dont think anyone would have believed me if I said I weighted 205 when I started my new and improved weight loss journey with MFP. I have lost 13 lbs since January 3rd already! Easiest weight loss ever! I want to lose another 35-40 for a total of around 55ish...I will be 47 in a few weeks and really need…

I weigh in every morning before breakfast...helps motivate me... 8)

These are ALL Amazing and inspiring! Congrats to everyone!

thank goodness I am not alone in this...just started a few weeks ago in MFP and 1st time for the monthly friend....scale went up 4 pounds...YIKES....praying in the next few days...it goes down again...did nothing different...

I will be 47 in a few weeks and this is MY LAST weight loss journey! I am sick of this yoyo thing. Done WW, done Aikens, done done done...MFP is working great...Started 1/2 of this year and lost 9.5 lbs in January. Superbowl gained 1.5 back but back on track. Would love support! I need to lose 40 total...but really want…
