That's about where I am! I am at 220 and my goal is 165. There's no such thing as too much support!!

Hello! While I'm not "new" to MFP, I am hoping to make some friends on here to help keep me involved, and thusly, help me stay on track.

Southern California in a town close enough to LA that no one's ever heard of it, so I just say Long Beach. (expected me to say LA, huh?)

We all fall off the health wagon, all we can do is jump right back on. Good Job!!

[/quote]That's what I did! Taco Bell drive-thru! It is a workout for sure :) [/quote] Definitely!

I worked at Taco Bell for two years and I made everyday a workout. Besides being on my feet in the drive through window 8 hours a day, which is in itself a kind of workout since you're always moving, there was a little box in a nook at ground level to put 20's in, so every time someone gave me a 20 I would do a squat. You…

Hi Howard, way to go getting on the health kick. You're right, you're never too old and its hard for people at any age. I'm having a hard time and I'm 37! feel free to add me if you like, and congrats! :)

Welcome! There's lots of motivating people on this site. :) Feel free to add me if you like.

Is there room for one more?

I quit smoking in December. This is the second time, and hopefully its the last time, both times were cold turkey. The first time I quit (really, it was a 5 year smoking hiatus) I threw myself into kickboxing and that helped me out a lot. This time I quit because I got pregnant. I just take it one day at a time, but the…

Sounds great, can't wait to try. Thanks for posting! :)

Where do you get the videos? are they online?

Welcome! And Congratulations on taking another step towards your weight loss goal. I used to Kickbox, too, and need to get back into shape so I can get back into it, though when I go back to work from Maternity Leave, I hope to join my old dojo and do the cardio kickboxing to help out before I start sparring and fighting…

You can do this, all you have to do is try. :)

Congratulations!

Welcome! I'm new here too so feel free to send a friend request if you like. Its good to have a good support group in endeavors such as ours. :)

Hi Dawn, I'm new on here too. Congrats on the 23 pounds lost and I look forward to your announcement of having lost the addt'l 25 you want to lose. Feel free to add me as a friend if you like. :)

its done, and tomorrow is a new day. Do what you have to do today, and then go back to eating right and working out tomorrow. :)

Wow! Great Job! :)

I would like to join. :)

One day won't ruin anything, but doing that on a regular basis will. You've gotten it out of your system, and tomorrow go back to eating healthy. I know lots of people say free days or treating yourself is bad, but when I was in shape and eating healthy all the time, I gave myself a free night to eat whatever I want, and I…

I get the EAS protein shakes, and I like them. I've also heard really good things about the Shakeology, too.

Wow, that's great! I admire your dedication and drive to lose 48 pounds on your own. What's your plan to lose the next 30 pounds?
