Hello Pips927! I'd love to be part of your neighborhood! I totally understand needing to lose 100 pounds. I've been there. As of now, I've lost 105 pounds total, including the weight I lost before I started logging on MFP every single day last year. No more yo-yo diets. While that the number on the scale is a great…

Hello, Beginning April 1st: 9M, 4S* Need to get back on track

My goal is also 1200, but I also frequently eat back my exercise calories. I know exactly why I've been fluctuating the same few pounds for the past four months. I could have fallen back into the old pattern of just quitting and gaining much of it back, but I kept logging with MFP, so at least I held on. ! refuse to get…

I am guilty of frequently eating low during the day. I do find 1200 calories challenging. I also rely on MFP for logging exercise calorie burn and I have been eating those additional calories, so no deficit many days.

I would love to add you all as Friends (that's if you want to), but I don't know how.

So right about age and genetics. I'm sure being 49 has something to do with it. I smiled when I read your advice to never look down during planks. I already looked down! :p I'll never have the funds for surgeries, plus I've heard they're really difficult to endure and you're left with major scarring. As for my weight loss:…

Great Question!

Thank you ashcky! Great job losing 67 pounds!! I'd love if you could add me as a friend (I still have to figure out how to initiate that). I'll have to check out my Instagram. I think that's great advice! My tummy got loose from having my first child (he's 26), even after losing the weight (50 pound gain). I was…

I'm looking for buddies too! (I usually use the app, so I don't know how to add friends)

I'm looking for buddies too! When I had my first child, my mommy belly skin didn't go away completely and I got striated hernias (think deep vertical stripes in lower abs), even after I lost the 50lbs I put on, back to a size 8. After my second child, I stretched so much I got an umbilical hernia (now repaired). My muscles…

I'm in Naperville

Count me in! How does setting up or joining this group work?

I also had a binge day yesterday. Started when my son (25yo) bought Gyros for lunch while I was packing to move (occasionally I allow myself to eat it). The binge behavior didn't begin until dinner. I thought I'd be healthy & have fruit & nuts. I measured ¼ cup of cashews, then went back again & again—eventually eating 1½…
