  • Hello! I have done dirty/lazy keto most of 2018 with only minimal success (I lost 30, my husband lost 50...insert eye roll) This year I am determined to actually count macros and do it right. I could really use some keto friends!
  • Restarting for the 10th time it seems! Been doing lazy keto since February, looking to get more on the strict side of things and get back to the gym. Need some friends!!
  • Need friends!! Started keto a month ago and really need some more friends to chat with! I have had an on/off relationship with MyFitnessPal for years, but I have promised to stay committed this time ;)
  • Hi! I am 32 and had a radical hysterectomy November 30th. I am starting to notice the same thing. If you do find anything that helps will you share?? I knew that the hormones might affect weight loss but i geuss i was just hoping it would'nt!! And congrats on 3 years!!
  • 1A Cervical Cancer. Doing great since December!
  • Hi jenno! Feel free to add me as a friend.
  • I have definitely been where you are! I do great with keeping a healthy lifestyle for about 6 months or so and then something will happen in life and I will slowly just stop trying. Then after 6 months or so of not caring I decide it's time to try again. I try not to get too down on myself because I haven't stopped trying.…

  • Hi, it has been a few months since your post but just saw it. How are things for you? Did you get good results? Btw, I was diagnosed with cervical cancer in August. So if you have any questions feel free to message me!
  • Good morning everyone! Just wanted to jump on here and wish everyone a great last half of the week! The weather has been amazing up here in NWA, hopefully it has been that way for everyone else.
  • I was 25 when I decided to go back to school. One month after I started classes I ended up getting pregnant! I was scared to death since I wasn't married and it was not part of my plan at all. But with lots of family/friends support I stayed in school and graduated with my B.A. in three years. It was actually easier with a…
  • Hi all! Would love to connect with a few other Arkansans! My husband and I just moved up to NWA in December from Hot Springs. We both love the outdoors (and can tolerate the humidity!). We are both busy during the week, him with work and me with working on my PhD in Counseling, but on the weekends we love to explore the…
  • Hey! Not all of us profs are mean! Lol... but maybe that's because the pain of getting through school still gives me nightmares!!
  • Hi all! I'm looking for some support as my weight loss goals have shifted to getting healthy before TTC. Age: 31 Where you live: Hot Springs, Ar but moving to NWA around Christmas Job: Adjunct Psych Professor and Vocational Counselor Length of time on the board: I have used MFP on and off for a year... I have lost and…
  • You might check out this website, it has a ton of great information. http://www.swimsmooth.com/ Yes, breathing on both sides is a bit wierd at first, but it actually has a lot of benefits (like less shoulder injury, keeping your stroke straighter, etc.) I was like you and learned to breath on one side. It took a month or…
  • Lol, this story sounds so familiar!! I have wondered many times if it is more of a calorie burn doing Wii while dodging kids, toys, and other safety hazards!!
  • I started Wellbutrin in August to quit smoking, and it has worked great! Yes, I think it has contributed to weight loss or atleast helped me stick to it better. It is actually amazing that I lost weight while quitting smoking. The fear of gaining weight was an excuse for not quitting that I used for years...
  • Is it too late to join in??? I am really needing some motivation and ya'll seem like a great group!
  • Thanks Ruth! I am going to have to try those ideas. I have also heard from others that sugar free red bull and vodka may be another great choice. Hey, as a single mom I don't get to drink often so I am just going to enjoy a few days break and work hard to keep the calories in check while having fun!
  • I am dreading this week. I am attending a huge rehab conference at the Arlington here in Hot Springs, lots of banquets, lots of free open bar time... Anybody have any great drink ideas that are low in calories and sugar?? Weigh In: 238 PSB Starting Weight - 243 Highest Weight- 258 Week 1 - goal: 240 actual: 241 (-1) Week 2…

  • Morning Barbies! I just wanted to jump in and say THANK YOU! I am not the best about actively posting, but I follow along everyday and still feel a connection to the women in this group. I read a post about someone describing their bad day, or week and all I can think is did I write this??? So again, thank you to everyone…

I am trying to get my life back on track, which includes going back to caring what I eat and how I feel. So, I hope ya'll will allow me back in!!
