I am starting mine in the am, I will let you know how first day goes! I really think my body will enjoy this, I have been very bloated and blah, for the past month. I wouldnt mind losing a few pounds too! lol

OMG I WAS JUST GOING TO POST THIS!! I bought it today and will start tomorrow AM! But would love to hear about anyone who has tried it! Tami

Your right, it is awesome! Way to go! :)

after a year of me doing it, I now have people that I work with looking at how many calories are in things, one of my co workers even lost 20 pounds last year because of my rubbing off on her. who cares what they think? Counting calories works. in a year, they wont even think twice about you doing it, it will all be…

I weight EVERYDAY . on two scales..

lol, me too, BUT the food page is correct, so just go by that tonight! I am sure Mike will fix it!

I am 5"4 and I weight 170. I wear a 12 right now, and I am still an xl on top, ( I have a big chest:blushing: ) I hope when I am at my goal of 140-145 to be a size 8.

Way to go!!!!

WELCOME! This is the place to be, log your calories daily, and keep moving, you will see results, trust me. Best of luck to you! Tami

I know someone who did MEdifast. she lost a good amount quickly on that , I know she is eating real foods now and not doing the shakes anymore, she had about 150 pounds to lose, and I got her started so good for her. I dont agree with it, cause I am not sure what it is teaching you on how to eat, but I do think if this is…

I have two protein shakes a day, I mix with just water, so its only the calories of the powder itself, which is 117 calories. One I have as my mid morning snack, and the other I have either after a shorter workout, or in the middle of a long workout ( like on Tuesday nights, I workout for 2.5 hours, weights for 40 mins,…

WELCOME! I am sure you will find this site as wonderful and supportive as I , and many others, have! Best of luck to you! your in the right place!

its ok ONCE IN A WHILE , just as a treat, but you wont be able to keep it up , eating your calories up in sweets and such, cause there is very little nutritional value in them and your body will feel like crap, not to mention be hungry. You need filling foods, and lots of them. You will figure out what is worth eating real…

well I am from SEATTLE, but I will be in Portland Feb 5th and 6th, lol I will be staying at the embassy suites in Portland, I dont recall which one, but its close to the MAX.. Where do you work?

the stevia is good, . BUT I Still use my vanilla fat free creamer ,and I will not give it up!

You can do this!! YOU just need to realize you are WORTH IT!! and , that it is not going to be a quick fix, it will take time! This is my NEW Favorite Quote" This is no time for ease and comfort. It is time to dare and endure." Winston Churchill . its time to get uncomfortable with yourself, every single day, do something…

I will admit, I did not read page two of this thread. But I agree with SheBoss. And I am sorry, but Dont we ALL JUDGE????? I do it now, and I KNOW FOR A FACT people use to do it to me!!! My 16 year old son and I go to the store every other week, and we buy some not healthy foods cause my husband is not on board with this…

have tomorrow be the new day, the back at it. its OK. if you get right back at it, you will be ok! Good luck!!!

You can do this. You need some time in the kitchen , even if its at midnight, you need that time to plan and prepare. The first 6 months of this year I didn't not have any fast food. I was afraid I would fall back into my old habits and I just didn't want to tempt myself. Check out my profile and my before pics. I…

Thank you Becca! I am so glad you will have a gym support system. That has been a huge help to me this past year!

The results are your motivation! Just keep thinking that!

throw it away when he isnt looking. You are not wasting anything. Cookies are not a food with nutritional value, therefor you can toss them! :laugh: thats my logic! I went to a cookie exchange party this year, and I came home with ALOT of cookies , I left them on the counter from Sunday to WED am, by that point I figured…

I remember him!!! I liked him! :happy:

I plan all my foods for the day before I leave the house in the AM, and most times, log it into MFP to see what I have, that lets me know what I have left for dinner, and if I want more than what I have left, I just burn more calories at the gym that night. and I take all my snacks and lunch with me for the day. I leave my…

I think your awesome Tami! I remember a year ago when I joined your success was a huge inspiration to me. I was so glad to see you do so well while you were pregnant too! Thanks for sharing your success! Tami

so worth it!! I started it in June, and did it for 5 weeks before we had a heatwave out here and there was no running outside for me. I went inside to the treadmill, but kind of gave up on it. Since sept I have been running , just trying to improve my time. I can complete it in 37-38 mins, I am still trying to improve my…

YES! IT WAS ALL OF THAT!! every single day, ( with the exercise 5 x a week) I logged every calorie I put in my mouth, even the ones I drank ( which so many people forget about) if I didnt know how many calories it was, I didnt eat it, period, there was no room for guessing games, not for me. I tracked every calorie I…

I started on DEC 29th 2008 with 120 pounds to lose ( my ticker reflects the 50 pounds I had lost prior to MFP ) I lost 93 pounds this year. this CAN be done, the right way, I would love to be a part of your group to offer support! Best of luck to you! Tami
