WantToBeMoreActive

I'm in..I think...yikes...I have a hard time with commitment so I'll see how it goes. I did level 1 this morning and it was my first time, how did you guys pick what size weights you used? I'm 154 lbs, I didn't do my measurements but I will tomorrow morning. I'll probably only mesure myself after the 30 days...unless I…

Welcome :flowerforyou: this is a fantastic site it's good that you want to cut out the junk food (think baby steps if you start to get overwhelmed). Every positive choice moves you in the right direction. As for exercise & it being hot where you are, have you tried any workout dvds. Also the internet has some great free…

welcome to MFP :flowerforyou: this is a REALLY great site good luck on your journey :smile:

good luck :smile: you've come to a wonderful place :bigsmile:

welcome sharon & good luck :happy: this is a GREAT website :glasses:

welcome & good luck :bigsmile:

Thanks for the info How did you judge what hand weights to use, how heavy I mean?

What is going on in your life? Why are you eating? It's been 2 months so I'm thinking something is going on with you, if only subsconsciously. Get out some paper & start writing to try & figure out (if you don't know already) why you are doing this to yourself? For many people being overweight is not just about food &…

welcome :flowerforyou: have a look under the general weight loss category, there are 4 threads at the top that have AWESOME information about weight loss for new members :happy: good luck :wink:

welcome :flowerforyou: well done so far :bigsmile:

so is the idea that you finish all 3 levels in 30 days? But if you need longer at a certain level because you are finding it difficult, you just go at your own pace until you feel ready to move on?

With all the hype on MFP about the 30 day shred I wanted to try it out. I'm in England and when my friend came to visit a few weeks ago from Canada I asked her to bring me a copy. Maybe it's because she's in Quebec but she couldn't find it :sad: Who knew I could at least see what it was all about on you tube. :laugh:

sounds yummy

Way to go Jay_83!!!!!!!!!!!! :bigsmile: I love to hear about people's successes, especially when they're on our team. :happy:

I all, I've been AWOL for a few weeks from MFP. A friend came for a 2 week visit and I fell off the bandwagon...OUCH, it hurt. :sad: So I'm accepting my 3 lb again (156 lbs now) and moving on...and looking forward to the scale moving down. :laugh: I am verrrrrry happy to say that unlike the old me who would have given up &…

I fell off the wago too...and it was for 3 weeks...but I'm back...and I'm glad to see there's other people in the same boat as me....and now...let's do this!!!! :wink:

Oh my goodness!!!!! I have the same problem too!! With me though it's not my mom making me eat anything, it's just when I'm there I revert to old patterns and eat comfort food...dessert at lunch and supper...lots of bread...and potatoes and meat...and little veggies. I just can't seem to take care of me when I'm at my…

Hi Catherine10 & meaganrh!!!!! We Crazy Canuks sometimes are slow at posting the Wednesday weigh-in thread. So if ever you check in on Wednesdays and don't see one started, feel free to start one yourself...I don't think anyone will mind. Having said that, I just started a thread for weighing-in this week if you want to…

Hi all!!!! I didn't see a thread started for us for this week...so here goes. Anyways, May is finally here...yahoo!!! I stayed the same this week, 153. I'm happy with that because I went away for 3 days and drank a bit & ate some things I usually wouldn't (chips & chocolate). :smile:

good luck :flowerforyou:

I hear you Mom_to_5!!!!! My husband & I went away for a 3 day weekend and I indulged more than I usually do. :laugh: I don't know about you guys but I find I can go a couple of months with eating healthy & exercising but then it's like I have to let loose for a week or so and eat & drink things I don't normally have.…

Hi all, Welcome to the new members!!! Just checking in for Friday, I lost 3 lbs this week after the scale not moving for awhile. :bigsmile: I'm away today until Monday with my hubby so hopefully I still be able to make good food choices and get some excercise in. I tried South Beach before but wouldn't be able to do it…

Wow, nobody gained weight this week. Everyone stayed the same or lost. Well done!!! :flowerforyou: May here we come!!!!!!!

At least you're stuck at 149.9 & not 150 :laugh:

I lost my first 10% today too. :bigsmile: Yeah for us. :laugh:

welcome Debi :flowerforyou: this is a great site, you will :heart: it here.

Hi all, I thought I'd lend a hand and start this week's thread as I didn't see one. :wink: I lost 3 pounds and am at 153!!!! :bigsmile: I can't believe it, I had to get on & off the scale 3 times and I just kept staring at it. :laugh: I've lost 10% of my body weight since I joined MFP in January. :smooched: Good luck…

I TOTALLY agree with Meryl. When I had adrenal fatigue it was a naturopath that diagonsed me. The reason I suggest seeing one is that she put me on VERY high doses of certain vitamins, MUCH MUCH higher than than is ever recommended. A doctor won't do this, they usually treat conditions with drugs and you need herbs &…

well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bigsmile:

Hooray for you!!! :flowerforyou: And you made it int the 220's WTG :wink: I stayed the same this week, 156. I didn't gain :bigsmile: & I didn't lose :grumble: Good luck to everyone
