\m/ \m/ You can definitely see the difference!!!! Great work!!!

Welcome!!! Feel free to friend me as well!!! We all look out for each other!

Welcome aboard!!! If you're looking for a little support, feel free to add me as well!

Allo allo!!!! :happy:

Oh HELL yeah!!!!

My youngest son is a picky eater, and I cannot sneak ANYTHING healthy onto his plate... his selections aren't all that varied, and the food is all pre-processed. Blue box mac and cheese, bagel bites, frozen pizza, chicken nuggets, pop tarts... and that's pretty much the extent of his diet. I try to get him to try healthier…

Welcome aboard!!! I know what a sobering experience it can be!!! When I first came to MVP, all of five days ago... lol. I saw exactly how many calories I was taking in, and I was shocked. Luckily the tools allowed me to balance it all out and plan before I cooked and ate. Stick to it, and you'll do fine! :wink:

Welcome!!! Feel free to add me!

Once a week does it for me... weighing every day only disappoints me...

Greetings to you as well!!! Welcome to MFP!

That's awesome!!! I've only just added running in place to my regimen... and have a long way to go, but you're doing fantastic!

Welcome!!!! You're in good hands here!!! Lots of great tools, and support!!!:happy:

Explains a lot really... it's like a 90 mile hike to the bathroom at my job! I should lose weight in NO time!

My wife has one shaped like a heart on her right hand between her thumb and forefinger.

Use the tools here, stick to your guns, and you will succeed!!!! Welcome to MFP!!! :happy:

Don't eat McDonalds!!! Eat up some friendship here!!!! You're on a journey forward, don't look back unless it's to see how far you've come... and like Katiemarie said... McD's, the mere thought of it upsets my stomach too! Don't throw it all away for uncertainty...

FOUND IT!!!! Waaait, waaait, that was just dry wit... sorry! Sorry!

I see!!! Thank you for clarifying... was getting a little confused between BSL and A1C!!

Ah!!! A1C!!! *headdesk* How could I be so silly to forget that? My apologies!

I did Weight Watchers too... lost 139 lbs., then gained a lot of it back... mfp seems like a GREAT method for keeping track of everything we eat, and the exercise we do... welcome!

Shouldn't be a problem... it's a great method for monitoring intake and exercise! Welcome!

Perhaps it's as simple as the placement of a decimal... lol.

Was wondering how you were measuring your blood sugar... perhaps I'm missing something here, but on good days my BSL is like 90-100. Perhaps you're using a different type of meter? Not questioning your accuracy or method, I just find that rather curious!

Welcome to the gang, good luck to ya!

Not much of a gentleman really, you'd be better off not seeing him again... self-centered pillock.

I know how tough it is to reign in what we think is hunger when we're used to eating more... it takes adjustment. What I've taught myself to do is to differentiate between actual hunger and "bored" hunger. I was a grazer, would eat throughout the day thinking I was hungry, when all I needed to do was distract myself with…

Welcome!!!! I know it's tough getting started... but once you get rolling, you'll never believe how far you've come. Good luck to you! :happy:

I loved Fable II, haven't played III yet. I also love Dead Space, and the Silent Hill series (though Homecoming wasn't as good as I'd hoped it would be).

Take the Weight Watchers approach and shoot for losing 10% of your overall goal. Once you've lost that 10%, then go for the next 10%. Small goals along the way are one of the keys to success!!! Good luck to you, and welcome!!!

Welcome, Chris!!! Feel free to add me as a friend! Anytime you don't feel motivated, I'm good for a pick-me-up! Follow the plan, and you'll do just fine! I hope you reach your goal!
