Isabelle, I hope you sleep well and wake up refreshed. Please drink a lot of water to hydrate and flush out your system! Kris- a day celebrating your relationship with your mom is worth any amount of calories! It sounds like a wonderful day. Scrapbookingtm. It sounds like you handled the potluck perfectly. I always eat…

Oh my! At lunchtime today my husband invited me out to a romantic dinner! Do you all think it might be the 7 pounds? ;) Anyway, I guess today will be the day that I eat after 5 o'clock and indulge in my once a week red wine treat! I am so happy! I need to be able to bottle this feeling and pass it out to all of you so that…

Oops! I posted before I was done. A little bit of hungry today may lead to great success so I am happy and still very motivated to keep eating well, exercising and receiving support from this group.

Hi all! I had a great workout this morning and stayed fairly close to my calories. But, I am starving!

I am spending almost the whole day in the car. Terrible traffic! The college tour netted me my 10000 step goal! Good day!

The scale moved! The scale moved! the scale moooooovvvvvveeeedddddd!!!!!! :D So happy! It is Wednesday, but we are up and heading out for a long car trip today.

Isabelle!!!!! What are you doing awake now!?!?! Isn't it the middle of the night there?

This was a good work out day plus 45 mins of shoveling! My best friend has had a lot of success with a very low carb diet. I am going to do a modified form of that diet while still keeping up with my exercise and MFP!

I joined this board 6 days ago and I am really enjoying being part of this group. So, it is time that I belatedly post my goals. My ultimate goal is to lose 28 pounds by June 14. I started this effort (again) 14 days ago and I can celebrate the loss of 5 pounds. It is extremely important to me that I embark on the June 14…

Isabelle, A gain like that frustrating beyond belief. You have put in a lot of hard work and to have that rolled back is depressing. I hope you got healthy groceries and you can move forward with a positive attitude. You can definitely do this! I have spent a lot of time lately trying to figure out how I gained all of my…

Bon'jour Mon'Amie! Your english is amazing! The fact that you are bilingual is impressive. I took 3 years of French in High School and cannot communicate at all - but I loved the language.

Isabelle - you posted a great mixture of activities today. I really appreciate your inclusion of playing the guitar. It is a good example for me to follow. Because I lose weight a such a very, very slow pace it is easy to get discouraged. Tracking other positive elements of life may help. I completed my stair master work…

Hi all, Happy Valentines Day! I worked out this morning, but this is my night for eating after 5:00 and I am enjoying that this evening. My calorie goals will be ok today, but next week is college tours/traveling and I will not be able to stop eating at 5:00. :( Wish me luck!

I am proud that I made myself get through the entire 45 minutes on the stairmaster. But I am thrilled that I figured out that my fit bit will count the steps as long as I do not hold onto the handles! It is a very good day! :p

Wow! It is cold here today! So, I will be getting my hour of exercise in the basement. :-) I had a point two gain today, but that is no big deal since I realize that weighing myself every day means I will see every small up and down. And I have to weigh every day in order to keep myself accountable. Today I will; Journal…

Clothing sizes can be such a mind game. Very, very demoralizing at times. Since you have lost weight you are probably looking and feeling so much better buy what fits and looks great on you and then cut out the size tag! Don't let it define you! Remove it and forget it! And enjoy how you look!

Hi. I only started this phase of my weight loss journey 9 days ago. This is my 3rd time having to lose the weight in just over 10 years. I am very serious about meeting my goals and I find having people to check in with is very helpful. Thank you for starting this group! Regards, Susan

Cravings have both a physiological and psychological basis. Sometimes willpower alone is not enough. Many doctors urge people to simply try to hesitate, hold off and BREATHE! It can be very tricky - be gentle with yourself. Also, try here for tips. http://www.webmd.com/diet/13-ways-to-fight-sugar-cravings -

I am willing to bet that you FEEL better too! 14 lbs is a huge accomplishment! If you did not take measurements at the start, maybe you would like to do it now in order to be able to compare?
