Yay!...you must feel on top of the world!.....

Bmeadows it sounds like a win to me!

Being a Binge eater I should know what happens when I start eating sweets and fats....but, alas!...I never learn....well, I am learning but I am a slow learner lol....in 19 months I have binged really bad maybe six or seven times and that is a lot better than eating non stop 24/7.... my worst fear is actually…

The menu for tonight is BBQ chicken tenders, broccoli with cheese, stuffing, and a salad....pretty easy....evening snack is rice cakes with peanut butter and a banana!....

Congratulations to all of you....this losing weight thing is hard work!...I am in the same boat...after hitting a low of 247 before the holidays, I ballooned back up to a whopping 270....so much fluid retention...but I am happy to report I am back at 251 this morning...not getting my swimming in has really limited how much…

Welcome!...I use my calories like money and try to spend them wisely!

Sounds good....I buy fresh dough in Publix deli and measure it out....easiest crust ever lol

If you don’t eat any of your exercise calories back, I would give it an educated guess...there are some other sites you can check how many calories you burned....I eat back about 25% of my exercise calories because I never think MFP is consistently accurate....hope this helps!

I guess for me, a new and healthy lifestyle sounds more fun than, “ I am on a diet”....actually I think I have been on a “ diet “ most of my life!...help us out here and think of a new word to use instead of “ lifestyle”... I like “ journey “ but some don’t like that word either.... To me, this is a journey with some…

Shrimp Scampi sounds delicious!....we are eating simple fare as we usually do!...turkey kielbasa,oven baked fries,mixed frozen vegetables and a fresh tossed salad....snack later will be an apple, popcorn and a string cheese....you all make my meals sound boring!....

There is a lot of good stuff in this post!

Welcome back to the best group of “ Losers”.... give us an update soon how you are doing!

Welcome to our group of Losers!...that is a great picture!...it is never too late to get healthy and lose weight....some of us have lost more than others and we have been here different lengths of time...we all share some of the same struggles...this is a good place for inspiration and motivation....lots of helpful…

That is great doing more cardio....sorry you have such high anxiety....this group never passes judgement....we are all trying to go in the same direction!...we just take different roads to get there....keep up the good work!

Would really like to see more members posting...telling what you are doing to keep on track helps everyone....let’s keep this group going strong!

Hang in there.....maybe some hot tea or low calorie hot chocolate?....I have been knitting...anything to keep my hands busy!

I hardly ever eat breakfast except for coffee....I eat at noon until about 9 at night...rather have two bigger meals and a snack!

You all are killing me with your creative dishes!....tonight we are having Oscar Mayer 60 calorie lean wieners,roasted re baked potato wedges and fresh green beans I got at the produce market....simple but good!

I guess I could shovel some sand for exercise since we do not get snow!....glad you seem so much perkier and glad to see your post!...we miss you!

Glad you were not seriously hurt but I gotta ask if you kept the potato that you stepped on?....I would have!

After a trip to Publix this morning, we are having Ribeye steaks, baked potatoes, and a fresh salad!...mmmm mmmm good

Sounds yummy!

I am with you on the plateau front....after hitting the 103 lb loss and weighing a low of 247.0 before Christmas, I am at 253 and holding steady....not being able to swim is killing me because I am just not getting enough to eat to feed my body...I skip breakfast to get more to eat later but I really need to lose 40 or 50…

On the homemade pizza I used onions, red and green peppers, mushrooms, black olives, garlic and a few diced seedless tomatoes....lots of lo fat mozzerella....the dough for the crust from Publix is great but I knead in a little Larry’s Garlic salt and Parmesan before I put it in the pan and bake for a few minutes before I…

You would do a great job....I hope Novus sees this and gives you the job!....there are so many great posts on here....I think I have read all of them!

We need more active members and a couple of more present hosts!...I really miss the leaders posts!

This is another great read for old and especially new members!

This is a great post and learning tool for all of us!

I am making home made pizza tonight loaded with veggies and lo fat mozzerella....half of it has 800 calories but this is a huge portion...I am skipping a heavy lunch so I can eat the entire half!

I was one of the lucky ones!...TOM never much bothered me and I didn’t know I went through the change until it was over!
