that is the attitude to have!!

I have followed MFP since Jan 2009. I have worked out 5x a week since Dec 29th 2008, Count calories in and out . I do strength training 4 times a week ( heavy weights) And cardio at least 5 times, sometimes 6 times a week. I feel pretty awesome! thank you!

I have lost 108 since Joining MFP , I had lost the other 50 in 2007, ( it was really 65 that I had lost, but had gained back 15 by DEC 08)

OH WOW!! I was 6 years younger in the before pic too!! tell her thank you!

I wear a HRM , so I know how many calories I burn while doing it. I burn between 150-175 level 1 and 2.

AWESOME JOB!!! LOVE THE FEELING YOU GET!!! remember it, it will drive you to get faster and go longer. :drinker:

this is what people do, they think cause they screwed up once, they have blown it, you didnt !! start fresh tomorrow! its a long road ahead of you ( sorry, but true) and you can beat yourself up every time you screw up. START FRESH TOMORROW MORNING, get some exercise, eat the right things, you will feel soooooo much better…

Almost never do I eat them all back. I stay around 1400-1500 a day. Sometimes I eat them all back other times I don't.

I can't even imagine what all my lost fat looks like! Ick.

if it helps any, I saw someone today who I had seen in a few years and she didnt say one word about it. I went up to her, said hello , so and so, and she just looked at me, then looked at my name tag, ( she came into the store I work at) and said, "ohhh yeah, thats right, you work here" . then she went on to tell me what…

awesome job on both!! that is wonderful! :drinker:

Great job! You look wonderful! ( Should be onederful)! Way to go!

ohh I cook mine on Sunday nights for the week, so in the AM I just have to reheat real fast.

hmm I just put cinnamon and a packet of truvia in mine every AM . nothing fancy.

I wish you the best of luck, you will feel wonderful when you have the weight off. good luck!

awesome job! good for you! and your right, a little does go a long way. its a great feeling, getting healthy, dont forget how awesome it feels , if you keep remembering it, you wont fail, trust me! Best of luck to you, and way to go!!!

awesome!! way to go!

YES!!! eating ONE pickle can make you retain a pound of water the next day! it has so much sodium in it. I read that in one of Jillian's books and I never forgot that, or ate another pickle again!!:bigsmile:

good for you both for working through the feeling of giving up, I think that is what happens to most people, they get a few months ( or even a month) into it and they realize its not coming off the way it did before, and its really going to take some time to get all the weight off, and they give up. YEAH for not giving…

it does, just right under, tells you what you earned by working out, and it adds it to your daily calories. is that what you are talking about?

for my last 60 pound loss or so, I have focused on carbs, protein , fat , and sodium, As well as calories. But the first 100 pounds , I just watched the calories. Sodium is a big thing to watch just in general, so watch that! make sure you are eating enough protein , at every meal. you'll figure it all out , it takes some…

well you shouldnt be doing that. if you are working out that much, you need to eat more. the second you start eating , you will gain it back. You can not lose a pound a day and have it be healthy. they say, you should eat your exercise calories back. doing good with the working out and the water. you just need to eat more!…

WELCOME!!! you will love this site, and I hope you find it as easy to loose weight with it as I did!! :)

trying to remember when it was my boys.. no straws, that I did know. jello, yogurt, eggs? I think after a couple of days you can eat normally again.. no popcorn!! lol

I think everyone is doing great! Being here and being aware of what you are eating is a huge thing! You must get in some form of exercise that will get your heart rate up and keep it up for at least 30 mins 3 times a week, that really should be the least that you do. ( And I dont think sweeping the floor counts as this .…

haha . My very good friend is a baker, she made the cake. She does an amazing job!!

It was Yummy ! and I can proudly say, my scale doesnt think I ate the cake! LOL

Thank you very much!! The flower fit my mood today!! Very happy!

Thank you!! its been a wonderful day!
