True, 2 actually TNP loves to roller skate

I think we could be best friends!! LOL!!

I think we have all fallen off the wagon at one time or another. It's not a sprint, it's a marathon. Your welcome to add me if ya want! :)

Wow, Ya all are amazing! I am 5"2, CW 182, SW 226, and GW of 134. I would love some shorty friends! :) Feel free to add me!

I always weight everything in grams and make 1g/portion. So, if I eat 20 grams, I put it in as 20 servings. I do that with any casserole I make or taco meat or things like dips. I also did my green tea recipe in oz. and just add up how many oz I drank. It works for me because my husband its dieting, so he eats more than a…

I just went into my goals and adjusted the macros. During low carb I usually do 20% Carb, 35% Protein, and 45% Fat. MFP's Macro's are closer to 40-50% carbs

I felt the same way when I moved from MFP's macros to low carb. I would get on the scale in the morning and think...there is no way I lost weight with what I ate yesterday, and sure enough, I was going down 1.5 lbs a day. I recently switched back to MFP's macros because the low carb weight loss tapered off rather quickly.…

You look awesome! If you don't mind me asking, what's your routine like? I am on the same road trying to lose around 100 lbs. Calorie intake, exercising, etc. Thanks! And again! YOU LOOK GREAT!

Just started today. Looking for friends to support me! Any takers?

I second green tea! That's what I will drink at night before bed!

I also count the rest time

Hi! New as well! Feel free to add me!

I am starting LCHF diet today and I would really like to have some MFP friends that are doing the same. Please add me if interested! Also, what do you low carb-ers set your macros at?

80 oz.-120 oz.

Parted Ways Indefinitely

Not to deviate but what are fit sticks?

OP- weight will not disappear overnight. It was hard for me to hear as well. Then I realized, I spent over 3 years putting on 50lbs, why in the world would I think it would come off in 6 months? It will take time and there will be weeks that you don't lose, but honestly, you will lose more eating at least 1200 calories…

Fat cells changing in size it what is causing once firm fat to become jelly like fat. So, you do not gain or lose fat cells, they only expand or shrink (unless you are a fan of lipo, then you can lose fat cells.) When your fat cells are expanded (i.e. you eat like crap, your body stores fat, and gain weight) they are being…

That is awesome! You should celebrate that victory. It's a huge victory! I celebrated 25 lbs by buying a Garmin fitness tracker! Keep up the AWESOME work!

A picture. At the end of February me and my husband went to Cancun and a picture was taken of me and him in front of the CocoBongo Club and I was mortified when it showed up on Facebook. I knew I had gained weight, but oh my! I looked pregnant. Right then and there I decided I couldn't live with another picture taken like…

I just have to say everyone looks so GREAT! Keep up the good work! So here goes: The first picture is from February 23, 2015 at 228lbs and the second pic is from June 28, 2015 at 194lbs. This has been a SLOW process and I have about 60lbs to go. And no, I was not pregnant in the first picture. :)

I had to go on the Garmin website and go into options and click on view HRM to make sure it knew I had one and would be using it. Then, when I put on the HRM, I have to make sure to wet the sensors on the belt, and I have to switch my garmin to "HEART" so it knows I am using it. Once I am done I have to hold the button…

I always fill my plate with the food I know is better for me before getting to the other food. i.e. I put the chicken and broccoli on my plate before I try to put things like bread or potatoes. That way there is little room for it. I always use a smaller plate than everyone else as well. Like a salad plate or one of my…

I and others noticed a difference after I had lost 20lbs. At that point people noticed the difference in me and I noticed the difference in my clothes. Now at 33lbs loss I notice a huge difference. Before 20lbs, no one noticed.

I am right there with ya! I have lost 30 (give or take a pound or two) and have appox 60lbs left! Would love some friends! Please anyone who wants a supportive friend, add me!!

Hello! This is a great start! Good luck!

So, I stick with Quest. I have tried other bars, but Quest is one of the few I find that can really get a great taste along with the great macros. I love the fact that they have 15-20g of fiber in them as well. I actually buy them by the case on Amazon.com and the price it's horrible. There is a company on Amazon that will…

I get mine at Hyvee

OMG! Yes, it's a protein bar, but it is soooooo good! I suggest chocolate chip cookie dough. I eat one at least once a day!
