I heard Honda was top of the line!:tongue: Vonda has a HONDA:laugh:

HI :flowerforyou: Thanks for being so honest. I was on antidepressants for a while and gained weight too. I went off the antidepressants for a while and was considering going back on them. Then, I listened to Dr Amen on PBS, and he said that in a head to head clinical study between Zoloft and Exercise, Exercise won! The…

Hi everyone! :flowerforyou: I want a team. I joined this team -- someone didn't step up to the plate. Sooooooooooooooooooo, I'm TAKING OVER. :noway: Yes, it's a mutiny Captain Bly!:laugh: Who is with me????? Wk 1: 2 pounds lost for me.

My official weigh in was today. I got one of those digital scales at Walmart. I'm down only 2 pounds instead of 6. Hey, I'm down with that! :glasses: Only 6 more to go! (at least I haven't gained):tongue: The scale is easier to read now..... :bigsmile:

I haven't cuddled etc for over a year! I'm seriously lacking in that department.:sad:

HI:flowerforyou: I'm an unemployed Medical Office Assistant looking for a job. I'm going to school online to get a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration--Accounting. I keep busy doing homework, housework, yardwork, and crosstitching while waiting for my next opportunity. :bigsmile:

Ut oh. :noway: What did I start with? Let's see.... My last weigh in was 209 and my next weigh in is tomorrow. I don't have one of those digital scales :grumble: I'm about 203 today. I'm down 6 pounds! The goal was 8 pounds. I'm almost there! Yay! :drinker: I can't wait to be past the 200 mark and back into the 190's.…

My rest day is Sunday too. I usually walk the dog for 45 min on Sunday, but I don't go to the gym. I'm thinking of changing it to another day, but probably won't because it's a routine now. I'm afraid to break the routine.

Hi Everyone :flowerforyou: I went for a 8 mile hike. We finished it in 3 hours 15 min. My hiking buddy wasn't sure that I could do it, but I did! :glasses: I'm thrilled about my performance even though the last mile was tough! I got several blisters and one big blood blister on my right foot. I've been soaking them in…

What happened to the Dream team?????????? I lost 1 pound in 3 weeks. Hey, if I continue this weight loss schedule, it will take me 222 weeks to lose 74 pounds--that's over 4 years!:noway: :noway: :noway: :noway: :noway: :noway: I'm in it for the long haul baby!:wink: Help me:sad:

I did ok until Sunday then I bombed. I ate pretzels until I was full. Back in the saddle again! :flowerforyou: The scale doesn't register any gain yet.:tongue:

a short time? How short of a time? How long does it take to lose 74 pounds? I've been eating between 1600 and 1700 a day and exercising a little over an hour a day. I've got 3 weeks of practicing maintaining weight loss because I lost 1 pound in that time. I'm still 2 pounds ( 1 week) ahead of my goal. :drinker: I can feel…

A bunny went to the dentist but didn't need any novacaine. Why? She was an ether bunny!:laugh: Do you know how to catch a unusual bunny? Unique up on it.:laugh:

I had a bad Sunday. I got ahold of the pretzels and ate and ate and ate pretzels until I got full. :devil: I'm in! :smile: I say 2 lbs a week by St Patty's ... that's 8 pounds.

My weigh in day is Saturday for MFP because that is the day I started. I work out at the YMCA and my weigh in day there is Tuesday. On Saturday, I weigh in the morning, and on Tuesday it's in the evening. I dislike weighing in the evening :grumble:

Hi :flowerforyou: I mixed it up. I hit a plateau for 20 days. So, I ate some more calories by having a couple desserts. My official weigh in is on Saturdays. Today, the scale says I dropped 5 more! Yay! It must've worked. Now back to our regularly scheduled program....

Hi :flowerforyou: I'm sorry you had a bad experience there.:ohwell: My friend asked me out to dinner tonight, and I picked Applebee's. I went online last night and checked out the menu. I ordered the 7 oz steak (330 cals) with garlic and mushrooms, baked potato, and veggies. MMMM good. The steak was cooked right --juicy. I…

Thanks Banks:flowerforyou: I think I'm around stage 2 and 3. Reality and routine. I'm sticking with it!

Hi everyone :flowerforyou: I lost 15 pounds in the first 20 days of starting to exercise and 15 days of watching what I eat. Then I stayed there for 18 days. I haven't lost any since. I varied my diet. I ate more for a while. I ate a bunch of cake on Super Bowl Sunday. I've kept on exercising hoping things will change.…

I'm keeping this ! Thanks :flowerforyou:

I ain't got nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo body! :sad:

HI All of you :flowerforyou: I was watching PBS one night and Dr Amen was on. He was saying that in his book, they reported that someone did a head to head study on exercise against a popular antidepressant. EXERCISE WON! Not only did the people who exercise feel better on a day to day basis than the people who took the…

I made Red Baron's French Bread Pizza (1 pizza) for dinner with a diet pepsi. I've been craving pizza. I always eat too much of the regular pizza. These are great for me! :wink:

I am single and live alone. So I try not to buy stuff that isn't a good food choice. MFP has really taught me about serving sizes. I used to eat a whole box of Stove top stuffing for lunch! Do you know how many calories that is? 1/4 cup is 480 calories! I learned to eat smaller portions of the food high in calories. I also…

There is no try... only DO. :laugh:

WAY TO GO!!!!:glasses: Little changes like the McDonald's thing is what will help you in the long run. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!:happy:

HI :glasses: I lost 60 lbs when I was between 25 and 26. I kept it off for 10 years then fell off the wagon big time and gained it all back and about 40lbs more. :sad: :frown: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: So, now I'm on a mission to lose it all again and keep it off until I die or Jesus returns.

HI :smile: I'm having my last cup of coffee today because of the cream I put in it. I'm going to OJ in the morning. I might drink more tea too. I like Red Rose tea--hot or cold. When I was in Denver, some restaurant made a tea mixture that was simply marvelous. Don't remember it's name. Wish I did. I really like the smell…

Hi Everyone! :drinker: I started exercising December 27, 2007 this time around. I started dieting when I found MFP on January 3, 2008. I weigh in the morning on Saturdays for MFP and in the evenings(Right after dinner--ugh!) on Tuesdays for the YMCA. I am working out with a group of people on Weeknights. Is it alright to…
