  • HI! I am 29 years old and a type 1 diabetic. I wear an insulin pump and have been diabetic for 8 years. I have 2 beautiful little girls and a very supportive husband (very important when trying to lose weight). I LOVE MFP and have lost almost 15 pounds in just under 45 days! THis program definitely works for diabetics,…
  • HI! I'm a type one diabetic and am on an insulin pump. I'm not sure if you have type 1 or type 2 but, as you proabably know, type 1 is not reversable. There are so many crappy things that go along with diabetes, regardless of what type you have, but you can work though them! That's the thing though, you have to commit to…

  • OMG! yOU LOOk wonderful!!! such an inspiration!! You look so much younger and I'm loving that short cut on you!! You go girl!!!
  • Another thing I did was buy my daughter a book called" The Bearenstein Bears eat too much junk Food". She loves to read it with me and it has her more interested in eating fruits and veggies! If you get kids involved in whatever it is that you're doing they are more likely to want to be involved! I stopped buy juice boxes…
  • Haha...oopps! Not air POOPED popcorn! Air POPPED popcorn! ;)
  • I know how you feel! Especially because I love kid snacks like fruit snacks, granola bars, etc. Something I've started doing is picking different snacks for my kids that are either healthier alternatives or something new to them all together! I've noticed that since starting with MFP I've been feeding my daughter healthier…
  • It doesn't happen all the time but when it does, it's SOOO frustrating!! I usually try to have my blood sugars around 8 or 9 before I start working out.
  • I am a mom to an adorable 4 mo old girlie and a wonderful 3 year old girl as well! I'm SOOO glad to have found MFP..with the little one I found it so tough to stick to anything related to diet/exercise. With the barcode option on the app I'm finding it to help so much!! I would love to have the support and give support to…
  • Any others out there? I heard "I like big butts" today on the radio and totally felt like burning some cals to it! I definitely like old school tunes for working out to!
  • Thanks for all the advice guys!!! Lots of great suggestions! I think I'm going to weigh in once a week but I also like the lady's suggestion who said she weighs at the beginning of the work week and the begining of the weekend.
  • Lol...megadeath! I don't think that one will work for me but to each their own, right?!? ;) Montell....nice! Old school! And yes...gaga is ALWAYS supper motivational!
  • I'm 5'8 and my current goal is 160...I would really love to go to 140 but...I don't know - that might be a pipe dream!! :) When I first started reading this thread I was shocked! 115? 120? But as I read on I was happy to see that there were some curvier ladies posting too! I also realized that although we may be similar…
  • Hi! I'm new - justsugned up today! I'm totally loving this website/app!! One question - what's the best way to find friends? I guess you can search out other people who have similar goals but I'm not sure how to do that yet! Good luck everyone!
