Nice job and thank you for the advice.

My Fitbit is still not synching. I had to reinstall the app again to upload data. It will update if I keep doing this. I hope management gets the problem worked out soon because I am losing data for some reason.

My Fitbit is down with mfp too. It erased all of my 12g steps and will not upload

Data missing from my iPhone app. Anyone else

Lost all my data

Steeler country Pittsburgh Pa

I cannot get the 20 loss picture to post

Thanks everyone for their input!! I will increase calories and see what happens. I will report back in 7 days and leave my diary open for the public. I would appreciate it if some of you could take the time and look at my diary during the next week. If something catches your attention that I need to eliminate or adjust,…

Sorry Bonnie that my diary makes you sad and I know the calories are low. But after 2 years, my foot injury for some unknown reason is allowing me to be mobile and I am trying to take advantage of the situation. I put on over 80 lbs within 2 year and it's hard for me to digest this. My former job required me to be in shape…

I was 303 and my first goal is 220

I have been on this drug sporadicaly for almost a year for planters faciitias and boy did it increase my appetite and weight from 253 to 303lbs within 8 months. It really did relieve the inflammation but it also made my face chubby looking like a chipmunk. Lol

Hi, that is excellent!! I am in the same boat as you. I was 303 and lost 19 within 3 weeks. I am on a 1200 calorie diet, and I have been walking 5 miles, 6 days a week. I will be increasing my calories next week when I am done with the 30 days of 1200. What is the calories range you are using? The last time I was on MFP, I…

I am down 14 pounds within 3 weeks

Thanks for the info guys. I will follow the manufacturers nutrition information and continue eating yummy bacon. Everyone please enjoy the day. It's 68 here in Pittsburgh and I am going to take a 5 mile walk around the park lake today. :)

I hurt my foot almost 1-1/2 years ago and was diagnosed with planters fasciitis. The pain was unbearable and I could not walk. I could not function or walk like you have described until recently. I went to my primary doctor who sent me an orthopedic that did absolutely nothing but tell me to take 2 aspirins 3 times a day.…

Ok. Thank you for the input.

Yes I am a man. lol I was kinda shocked that 1900 calories was recommended by myfitnesspal. I felt that number was too high What about 1500 calorie? Thoughts?

According to the icon in the exercise section, the app is activated. When I select the ? it indicates the adjustment, but it is not the same as what FITBIT application is indicating. For example, my calorie intake is 1500 and calories eaten today is 1327. Fitbit indicates that I burned off 899 calories and increased my…

Good morning everyone! Today my weigh in loss was .07. I must of hit a plateau. I exercised fairly hard this week and performed more cardio on the ellepitcal because of my foot. I was a little disappointed like others feel about the small loss, but I am over it and moving forward hoping for better numbers next week. I…

Hey, do not give up. We are all here to support you.. I love junk food, especially cakes, cookies and donuts. I was a cop for 20 years. (lol) After I watched the series on TLC, 600 lb life, I closely looked in the mirror and realized I had a weight problem. I am hooked on that show and it inspires me to continue with this…

Thanks for the replies. 3bambi3, my goal is 220lbs by summertime. I just got back from the gym and weighed myself in. I lost over 2 lbs of water weight and my weight is now 261.5. I think I am going to increase my calorie intake back to 1500. I think 6.5 is much to lose within a week at my age of 48. smotheredin, my…

Hello everyone!! I just wanted to check in and thank everyone for their kind words and advice that was posted last week. This week I could not sit still and went against my doctors advice to rest. After seeing how my stomach fat diminished, I could not sit stagnant and allow the fat to return. I pushed myself and suffered…

I went to the Doctors today and she told me to lighten up on the cardio workouts, stay off my foot for a week and prescribed an anti- inflammatory. Can anyone recommend exercises that I can do that does not require too much weight on my foot? Is there a website that can show me the proper exercise techniques? Could I…

Hello everyone! Today's weigh in showed that I gained a pound and I can explain why. My wife wanted to have a romantic valentines day and we made reservations at McCormick and Schmick's. I was not allowed to take my scale with me (lol), and no accurate nutrition information was posted online. The waitress was dumbfounded.…

ernestrodgers82, nice job! Thanks for the encouragement ewhip. Those pictures of your weight loss is awesome! I cannot wait to post my pictures when I hit my goal. I know a plateau will be coming soon, but I am determined to get the job done. I weigh myself in every Friday and I will post next weeks numbers hoping for…

UPDATE: I just went to the doctors and was weighed in. My numbers were wrong, but the loss was MORE. 266.2 pounds. HOLY CRAP! I lost 8 lbs this week. I know I have a long way to go to reach my goal of 220, but I am excited of my accomplishment. Good bye Oreo's for ever. (lol) Thanks everyone.

OMG, there is a little light at the end of my tunnel. My today's weigh in is 268.2. I lost 4.3 pounds this week. I did a lot of cardio at the gym. My wife took photos of my stomach on December 12 2015 (291lbs) and today. The results of the total weight loss so far is 22.8 lbs done in 2 months. I still have a long journey,…

Thanks everyone for the input. I have been weighing all intake foods. I think I am doing it correct except for non-label products. For example, I purchased a large package of chicken breasts from Sams club and it has no nutrition label information. I weigh a chicken breast and it displays 8 ounces. I google chicken breast…
