What's helped for me is logging those large portions of unhealthy food I like and realizing how I put all this weight back on. Drinking more water, logging as accurately as possible, adding a little bit of exercise goes such a long way!
-
I actually look at Pinterest before & afters, and read weight loss stories there for motivation! It's been very helpful for me!
-
You can actually accomplish a whole lot in 6 weeks!! Welcome back!!

I turn up Pitbull and other music in Spanish! I don't even speak Spanish but it gets me goin! ☺️

For some reason it only posted part of my answer! My goal as of now is 165-170. I just need to stop eating so much!
-
I am currently 181-185 on certain days!
-
How many extra calories does it give you at 13k steps? I'm almost there and it's given me 1400. Seems like a lot. Of course I won't be eating them back.
-
Thank you so much!!!
-
I have completely eliminated McDonald's and dark soda! 2 things I would normally have twice a day. It's been over a year for both! Yaaaay!

Charge HR. Just after midnight while I was laying down it gave me 146 steps and this morning it gave me another 120 or so within 3 minutes of me checking it. I went into the app and switched it to dominant even though it's on my non dominant wrist. I read that this may help. We'll see!

I bought s Fitbit last night and it's been adding steps I haven't taken! I read that it's normal but I'm not sure I'm ok with that....
-
Right now my iPhone is my step counter which I really only wear at the gym. I had it synced with mfp but after a couple of days it stopped counting for some reason. I'm going to get a Fitbit!
-
That's grrrrrrreat!!!
-
Awesome! Thanks for your "positive" feedback!
-
Oh ok. I thought I had to factor in exercise when selecting my activity level. Thanks!!!!!
-
So if my step counter is only around 5,000 on average, should I set my activity level to sedentary and only count calories burned after 5,000 steps?
-
Pre-logging helps! That way you're completely in control.
-
Yes I'm right there with you! I think this is my 5th try! We can do it!!
-
I'm pretty much depriving myself of fried fast food for a while. Of course I can "fit it in" but I didn't join this site to find ways to continue eating it on a regular basis. I'd like to make healthier choices MOST days.
-
Congratulations! You are doing fantastic! I'm very happy for you!
-
You can add me too! My phone won't let me :smile:
-
Yes! Now I'm trying to get rid of my new fat and get back to my old "fat" lol! :smile:

"Made in the kitchen, revealed in the gym" This quote originally applied to abs but I think of the entire body when I hear it.
-
You can add me too if you want!
-
My phone won't let me add anyone for some reason but feel free to add me! I'm 5'8" and my goal weight is 170 for now. 13lbs to go...
-
You can add me too! I only have 2 mfp friends and they don't log in often enough! :)

I would relive any day in high school so I could write myself a list of things not to do and people to avoid.
