I never thought I would like the movie Eat, Pray, Love. But I really ended up liking it....

When I had some health issues and my doctor thought I could have congestive heart failure. It turns out I am fine, but it is sure motivating me to get healthy!!

Well I don't believe in cheat days, for me my quest to become healthy is 24/7. I just try to be aware what I am eating or drinking. And if you have a off day so what you just get back to it the next day. My mindset is this is a marathon, not a race.

Lately I have been loving Honey bunches of Oats, I get the big economy bag an Costco and it lasts for a while...

Wow what a inspirational story, some people including family can be so cruel!!

I don't know why but I love Ras Trent, it makes me smile...

My favorite lately is douche waffle

Yeah I had a sweet tooth problem for many years, but now I am serious about living healthy and losing weight I just replace the urge with a piece of fruit and ti seems to do the trick...

Definately curvy, IMO if your are to have to much muscle definition it is not attractive...

People who whine or complain contantly Bad hygene- people who don't wash their hands after using the bathroom People who give a 110 percent, you can only give 100 percent.... this is not a complicated concept

Yeah I think the artificail sweetners are of the devil. I use Truvia, it is stevia and you can buy it in the store. Much better for you than anything artificial.

Slutty no-attractive, Hell Yes

Yeah you will have peaks and valleys, I will either lose 2-3 per week or I will maintain my current weight. Since I have been on MVP I have not gained any back. But drinking your water for weight loss. Well it is for me anyway. Good luck in your journey!

I would have to agree with Sharon, the support sysytem is something I never had before and it really makes a difference. And I now think as food as fuel for the body instead of just another meal..

Yeah I would never leave MFP, I just didn't know if there was any benefit to using both... I have way to many friends on here that I would not leave.

I was in denial about how overweight I was for several years, but my worst "fat" moment would be I would get winded just going up a flight of stairs...

I have learned I am no longer a slave to food, and I am stronger that I thought...

I love using the elliptical for my cardio, I have had 3 knee surgeries so they are low inpact on the joints. I can burn thru 500 calories in a 30 minute workout session.

Back when me and the wife were doing WW, we bought thiers and it woks fine. It is nice and compact and I think we paid like 30.00 for it.

I do love me some Lady Gaga- but I am a fan of Hip Hop, so I have been listening to The Game- Red Album recently. Also I am a big fan of Common

Yeah me to- I wish I would have know about this site sooner...

I have a android, I love it would never switch to a iphone. It is just more customizable, the app market is about equal in quality apps. I like the ability to make my phone the way I want, not the way Apple wants it... Call quality is good, no real problems. I am going to upgrade later this month and pick up the Droid…

WOW- you look amazing!!!

I use Brooks- they are great running/exercise shoe.

Yeah when I shop I always include alot of leafy greens. I try to stay away from anything that is processed or has any artifical sweetners. Any when it comes to protein, I get lean cuts and trim as much fat off as possible.

Well I used to be a secret eater, but since I had a health scare I turned that around. Now I just get hungry after working out...

Afraid of dying a early death due to obesity

Welcome and good luck!

Good job!

Yeah the great think about living where I do- near Seattle,WA and specifically in King county is that they passed a law where all resteraunts have to post nutritional info. It is amazing what I thought was ok, turns out to be terrible. I am still shocked that it is hard to find a meal with low sodium.
