  • I've been looking for a way to break away from my plateau (and even a 2 pound gain!) and I think this will be it for me. Need to lose 10 pounds and just being Primal isn't really working. I FEEL healthier but I'm not seeing a difference on the scale or in the mirror. So excited (and nervous!) to start. I'll be on vacation…

  • Hi Melinda from Georgia! Congrats on your loss so far. It's a wonderful accomplishment. (And I know how GOOD the food is down there.) I've been on MFP for about six months now but have only started making 'friends' and browsing the boards. I'm finding having that support gives a little extra boost every day.

  • 1. - I pushed through a crazy tough 5:30am spin class even though I was sore from hill sprints yesterday. I feel like a warrior! 2. - My (almost 4 year old) twins were adorable this morning and unusually happy and well behaved. It was one of those moments where I'm so satisfied being a mom and not pulling my hair out and…

  • I came here to post the exact same thing! My jeans have gotten significantly looser, my stomach is flatter and my arms are noticeably more toned. I'm looking great... only the scale hasn't moved in two weeks. I've upped my workouts and now I do one hour of spin 2 or 3 times a week, I run twice a week, I do the elliptical 2…

  • You can add me too! It's ok to have an 'off' day. We're all human. And life can be tempting. Plus you only life once right? So no regrets. If you fall off the wagon I'll toss your butt back on.

  • I'm glad I'm not the only one with a history of stealing Happy Meal fries. It's considered a rare 'treat meal' for my kids and I never order for myself. But I always end up sneaking a few fries... and then a few more. Good luck and I'm going to try the challenge too! No more "just a couple crackers for me" as I pack…

  • I'm in it for the long haul too! I've realized that eating healthy and being active is just going to be a part of my life from here on out. MFP keeps me honest and helps me stay away from extra indulging. I could use some extra motivation and encouragement from a few friends too! Congrats on making the commitment. It's a…
