Hello Ladies! I am coming back after a couple months off. I unfortunately went dark on MFP for 2 months after getting an incredibly bad bout of pneumonia that spiked my fever to 102 Fahrenheit, bottomed my weight out to 119lbs from 124lbs in the course of a week and a half, and saw me collapse in front of my entire class…

Hi Team! I feel terrible about going AWOL the last few weeks, but life got insanely busy and I simply couldn't manage to log everyday let alone weigh in or go on the chats! Here is my back log of information. I hope we can all support each other through the holidays, I know I can't be the only one who struggles with eating…

@mrssunshine78 I'm so sorry you've been struggling so much with your meal planning and subsequent gains! I know how hard it can be to fall out of practice with your lifestyle changes. I suggest continuing to do your best at work and staying motivated. Everyone here is rooting for you and I'm sure you'll manage to get your…

@rianneonamission I haven't had Kefir since I was a kid! Honestly sort of forget it existed. I know my super market has it so I guess I should pick some up! @glassofroses DanActive sounds familiar, although I don't know Yakult. Thank you for the suggestion - I'll check it out on my next grocery visit!
-
@glassofroses This is going to sound dumb, but I have never even heard of that before! Is this a powder or something that you add to water like those fiber drinks? Can I buy these drinks in most grocery stores do you think? Or should I look for it at a healthy eating place like Whole Foods or an Organic shop? I live in New…

I went out this weekend and bought a skimpy little dress to go clubbing in. I have never been clubbing before, and prior to now I have been too uncomfortable with me weight to buy the appropriate attire and check it out. Now that I am feeling thin and sexy I'm excited to go check out "the scene" :P I also picked up a…

@rianneonamission Yes we are doing our best to go for a Ragnar and Lagertha look! I am a redhead you know, so I'm not going to bother with the blondness but I am going to try and match her hairstyle as much as possible, and wear the same clothes! Im soooo excited

Welcome to everyone just joining! I am still going very slow on weight loss, but I'm happy that I haven't GAINED anything - so I'm considering this all still a move in the right direction. As I've said before my biggest goal for this challenge is to maintain my current weight or lose maybe just another 2 pounds. I always…

@glassofroses thank you! Im happy to hear you're going to take it easy for a while, it feels like you've been sick and injured a decent amount lately and i worry for you<3 !

It's been another week and I am still maintaining at 125lbs... I think I am still happy because I ate TERRIBLY week/weekend to celebrate my anniversary so at least I didn't go up. Plus - I have so little weight left to lose I think I need to be honest with myself that the weightloss will be much slower now and require a…
-
Hello, hello everyone - I'm back again! So I ended up having a VERY stagnant September due to some financial stress (hello comfort eating) butting right up against my anniversary (hello celebration eating). I think it is also time that i recognize that, because I have so little left to lose, I will not be able to watch the…

@mrssunshine78 That is AWESOME! I can only imagine how pumped you feel! @glassofroses I will definitely keep my fingers crossed for you! I really don't think I will lose 1 pound by tomorrow to meet my goal lol, but I am never EXACTLY certain of my weight as I have an old analog scale that is a little difficult to read -…
-
1 week later and the scale hasn't budged from 125lbs - but I am almost certain I am holding onto a lot of water weight since I had a buffalo chicken mac and cheese yesterday for lunch that sent me over my Sodium limit by over 1,000!!! Here's to the next week!

I am feeling so drained, stressed and down lately I am afraid of spiraling. I just found out that due to some clerical errors at my office extra money will be taken out of my paycheck for the rest of the year for my Health Care Plan to make up for the almost 3 months that payroll failed to do so. I will also be losing…
-
Hi @KellyBgetsfit It took me right around 6 months to lose the 26 pounds, but honestly I got off to a really really slow start in the beginning. I was not logging consistently AT ALL. Since June 11 I have lost 19 pounds so just over 3 months to lose almost 20 pounds. I have to say that logging EVERY SINGLE FOOD item EVERY…

I'm in! my main goal will be to lose a little bit of weight and then MAINTAIN - I am most concerned about not letting the scale go back UP with Halloween candy, Thanksgiving treats and Christmas party goodies coming up on the horizon.

@bringbackthejoy WOW! 8 miles is incredible - you are an inspiration! @glassofroses my standing desk is not convertible, it is just like, a big box that has two levels one for your keyboard and one for the monitor ($45 on Amazon). When I want to sit I put it on the ground and move my equipment down - so it all kind of…

"because the reality is I'm actually the biggest marshmallow to ever mallow." - @glassofroses this is why you are my hero - great sense of humor - I mean also the fact that you are so incredibly inspirational and REAL with your stories, and so supportive of my, and everyone's, journeys. The humor though - legit.
-
I was able to get my office on board to order me a standing desk - now I don't have to sit for sooooo long a time. (My commute is an hour, and I take grad school classes where I have no choice but to sit). It's only been one day but already I feel healthier being on my feet while I check emails and do reports.
