Way to go!!!

Make weekly meal plan Go to the market Only buy what’s on the list

@JamesMD84 Welcome! I just joined but I can tell you these folks are friendly and helpful!

@NovusDies Thank you for the thoughtful post and warm welcome. Prior to this new journey I was eating huge fast food meals daily for lunch. From what my endocrinologist explains to be is that I can eat carbs but I need to eat them with protein. My plan for now is to stick to the MFP calorie guide and make sure each bite is…

I think I read you’re I. West? I’m in the Notheast. So tired of the heat girr!!

Thank you all so much. This is now broken down for me to understand thank you!!!

Goal

I need advice or help understanding please. I am 5’1 and pretty much no excercise yet My MFP ap says to have 1470 for my weight loss goal. For kicks I checked out what my maintenance should be. It says 1370. Shouldn’t I just eat at 1370 then?

Thanks for reading and commenting. It’s inspiring!

I should have clarified. I’m a procrastinator. I’m writing out only attainable goals. For example clean out my car. My mom died last month and that made my who cares, woe is me attitude even worse. Nobody junked up my car but me. I have the choice to clean it or not. I like a clean car but make every excuse not to clean…

I live in Florida and had this little visitor this morning. Made me smile.

Age 45 Height 5’1 Weight: Beginning 307.8 lbs Today 304 Long term goal 125 Total loss needed 182 I can’t think about the 182. I need to focus on one day at a time. If I look at the total loss needed too long I will get overwhelmed and give up.

Thank you so much !

Today I’m going to focus on my future. I am going to write out some goals with deadlines. I’m seeking some control over my life and I think doing some thoughtful writing will help. I’m done feeling like a victim of circumstance.

Hi! I’m happy to have found this group. A few years ago I used MFP to lose about 75 lbs. I have since gained it all back and then some. I began this new journey 21 days ago. Started at 307lbs gained to 308 now today I’m at 304. I’m meant to be tiny at 5’1. I have insulin resistance and really said I don’t give a crap. I…

I am obsessed with this as a side dish: 1/2 large cucumber 1 medium tomato 1 cup sliced black olives 40 calories 1/4 cup fat free feta 35 calories 2 tbs Skinny Girl Balsamic Vinaigrette 5 cal Satisfies my crunch and salt cravings for sure!

I’d like to be friends. Please add me! I am currently 295 lbs. I lost a lot of weight a few years ago now I let myself go. Trying to rebuild my life.

I tried to join so many times! Can you send me an invite? Please? 204 5’1”.

I sent a request. Not sure if it went through.

For crab or most seafood restaurants use old bay. Not sure what's in it. I'm not sure if you are using powered onion and garlic but if you use fresh or even roasted as mentioned above, it is way more flavorful.

I have PCOS and was diagnosed about 12 years ago. The most important bit of advice that I can give anyone who is newly diagnosed is to not just focus on the fertility issues or even weight loss issues but in learning how your body reacts to specific foods and so forth. I don't know if you've seen an endocrinologist or not…

Whiohoooo way to go! Keep up the amazing job!!

Thank you everyone. You all are amazing.

Thank you all so much. I took this screenshot. What it doesn't show is the coffee with cream for breakfast and the pino added as a snack. Thank you all so much for the support this is the first time in over 20 years that I have not binged at a restaurant.

Yep y'all were right scale shows now 8 lb loss yay me lol

Thank you so much! Gosh, you have no idea how much this helps me thank you so much.

Thanks. I weigh every Saturday at the grocery store usually between 3-4 pm. I have lost some weight, 3 lbs. But before when I lost weight you couldn't tell from just 3 lbs. I'm scared to have a scale at home. I can't see upticks without getting crazy. I may buy one for work so at least I can have accuracy but I can't get…

Thank you all so much. I am looking to lose about 80 lbs. A few years ago I lost 98 and kept them off for 2 years. Now I am working on the rest. I was obsessed with the scale last time I was trying to lose weight and I found that it wasn't healthy my behaviors towards the scale are crazy, it's like my obsession with food…

I weigh myself at my grocery store. At the pharmacy where the blood pressure check is, that machine now all can weigh you.
