Down 1.6 since last weigh in (two weeks ago) Total loss 3 lbs

I really do thinking having a scale to weigh with on a regular basis is a helpful tool in your weightloss journey. As long as your head is there and you can really concentrate on losing then you can be successful! I know that the last 3 or 4 years have been tough on me with my ups and downs personally and am frankly sick…

Great job everyone! You are taking accountability & making the effort you need to to get to your goal. For those of you that lost weight - you are doing something right so keep it up! For those that may have gained - DO NOT get discouraged! We had Halloween & sometimes you have to treat yourselves. Even if that's not the…

Welcome on board! We are here to help & motivate! Our hope is that joining the group & weighing in every week will help hold ourselves accountable & gives us the push we need to keep going! Why do you think you have been unsuccessful?

Something to think about when you've hit a plateau.... sometimes increasing your water intake & changing up your exercise routine will help. Here is come Web MD advise for moving past it... http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/10-ways-to-move-beyond-a-weight-loss-plateau Hope this helps!

Good Morning Pals!!! I have been on MFP since Sept 2011 & it wasn't until recently that I started getting motivated & really focusing on my weight loss goal. Since early this week I decided to do a November Challenge & get super serious about this, I updated my "Start Weight" to what I weighed in on last Friday (which was…

Accountability is the idea here! Glad to have you on board! =]

I don't generally use a stationary bike, so I'm not too sure on this one. I did try researching it on the internet & from what I've read, most people were saying that begginers could do a mile in about 4.5 to 5 minutes! Hope that helps! If you have a smart phone, there is an app called endomondo that you can link to your…

Hi awetherell!!! We would love to have you on board, I will send you an invitation to our Group! There are a handful of us in the group that are doing November Challenges, so I will definitely be encouraging our members to update us on their November Goals! Good luck with your Challenge! I know you can do it! My name is…

Welcome Everyone!!! So glad you have joined us! Everyone's weight loss journey is different, but we are working towards the same goal. I know that I could NOT do this without the support from my pals. I have been on MFP for about a year now and have not lost ANY weight!!!! (In fact - I gained!) It was only recently that I…

Great goals!! You got this chica! =]

Sounds Great!!! =] So happy to have you ladies on board! We can do this!

Thanks for the ladies support ladies! We can totally do this!!! Tisch1985 feel free to add me if you need some support in committing to your goals. recee96, it's nice to have a fellow future bride on board. It's def a stressful time for me & I really don't want to have to get married with the weight I am now! :)

Feel free to add me!!! I'm 5'2" and have around 50 lbs to go. Could def use some supporters & motivators!!! Also - I have a group of pals that weigh in every friday morning together & discuss if anyone would like to join! :)

50 miles does sounds like alot. And people can choose what amount of miles they think will work for them. If you think about it though 50 miles/30 days is about 1.6 miles a day. You can do that within 15 minutes on an elliptial! Besides, we are going to need to do something to work off all that Thanksgiving food! All in…

John - thanks for starting the message board. I have had one hectic morning. Great job in posting & holding yourselves accountable people! I'm going to do the same and say I was up .4 this morning. I'm not going to get discouraged though, because I've been exercising all week and I've changed my mindset to really commit…

You guys are doing AWESOME!!! I'm so proud of your committment. Now i just need help with my motivation! I've been so slack this week that i completely forgot about weighing in this AM. You can bet your booty that i'm going home today and getting straight on the darn elliptical. :/

Everybody is doing so great. I'm seeing so many losses and positive attitudes all around! Keep it up people! We can do this pals! =]

Stick to your mini goals & push yourself hard! We will get your thru this girlie!

I love your positivity. See what next week holds for you & dont get discouraged. You have been working your butt off this week and you will see the results soon!!!! =]

Way to stay positive!!! It will happen eventually. Keep working on it! If you think you may be plateauing it might be time to change up the exercise rountine or something though! :) Keep at it!

Whoops - I guess I should add that I was down .2 this week! haha :]

Well after a week full of stress, no motivation & complete negativity, it's amazing I lost AT ALL. I'm really counting this as a blessing on my life to keep me from getting discouraged on my weight loss journey. So I'm taking my loss, because A LOSS IS A LOSS. No matter how small and I'm letting that MOTIVATE me for this…

WAY TO GO! And great job getting the board started! :)

That's awesome that you maintained! If you are trying to lose though and def want to see a change next week, maybe you could try setting a mini goal for yourself. Like for myself, last week i said i was going to be down 5 lbs by 9/28/12. I still have 3.4 to lose in a week but it may be doable. i'm going to push myself to…

Everyone seems to be really well! Stay focused and positive and you get to your goal! :)
