You are an Angel!! :) Thanks very much!

If anyone on teh Challenge could explain the "swimmers" to me I would really appreciate it! I did push-ups in its place last night, but it is scheduled for tonight again and I would like to do this right. Thank you!!!

I jusr realized I forgot to put my age on my check-in. I am 40. :)

Hi again, So I finished the exercises for today and 30 of my burpees. The only exercise I couldn't find was the "swimmers." Can you post a description of this exercise or a link to the youtube demo? Thank you! For today, I substituted push-ups for the sets of swimmers. I hope that is okay, otherwise I will add them in…

Good morning and Happy first day of the challenge! Here are my starting stats: Female Current Weight: 175 Height: 5'6" Current waist inches: 35.5" Current hips inches: 43" Current wrist inches: 6" Current forearm inches: 10.5" Current bust: 42.5" (w/ bra on) Current neck: 13" Current thigh: 26" Current calf: 17" Good luck…

This sounds so fun! I can't wait! See you tomorrow with all my stats!

Hopefully this has resolved since you last posted, but I thought I would add that you should only be adding calories and activities to MFP and then it will synch to the FitBit, as opposed to logging it in FitBit. You probably already knew that, but just in case! :) So far, I love mine too. I'm not sure how accurate the…

I just got mine! I am trying to set up now... Hopefully it will go well. :)

Thanks for the inspiration! I love success stories!!

RIP Sarah Burke. My condolences to you and to all whose lives she touched personally.

Congratulations!!! You look great!!

This was almost our first dance song. It is so beautiful. Choosing a song to stay with you forever it hard! So many good ones on here.

At Last was our first dance song too. That song still makes me swoon.

I welcome any moms to add me too! I am a Mom to three kids - a son aged 6, a son aged 4, and a daughter aged 2. I work full time outside the home too. I am doing pretty well with my healthy eating most of the time (two recent lapses) and okay with fitting in exercise, about 3 times a week. The weight is coming off slowly,…

Hi! I am 40 soon to turn 41. I am 5'6" and currently around 180 and my goal is to get back to 130lbs. I started MFP in November at 190, so I have made a little progress towards my goal, but slid back a few pounds last week when I was sick (feeding a cold). I am trying really hard to eat more vegetables and organic foods,…

This is a great site that teaches you a lot about how calories can add up. If you use it daily and accurately, you can learn a lot about your habits and see where the weight gain starts. I have been on the diet/weight loss scene for quite awhile, so my advice for you is to nip it in the bud! It only gets harder when you…

I'm 40 and relatively new to MFP. I have been on for about a month and really like it. I have lost 7 lbs on my journey to lose 60. I would love some new friends, so feel free to add me too!

Thanks very much for the info!

Feel free to add me as a friend. My weight also goes up and down and I am an emotional eater, so I can relate. I lost 60 lbs twice before, but my weight seems to creep up on me. I am at the start on my final journey to lose 60 lbs (third time's a charm, right?). I have been on this site for just a few weeks, but already…

I am a mommy to 3 (boys 6 & 4, and a girl 2) and I am also looking for supportive MFP friends! I'm still pretty new, just been on about 2 weeks, but so far I love it! I am hoping to lose 60 lbs, so I expect I will be on here for quite awhile. I'd love some new friend requests!

Love your post! I agree wholeheartedly!

I bought a whole case of them in early 2010 and I still have most of them left. They aren't totally gross, but they aren't a miracle solution for me either. You have to be very careful cooking them, as another poster suggested you just pour the hot broth or sauce over them instead of actually cook them. You have to rinse…

I have the same struggles! I also had a great metabolism when I was younger and after 3 kids (including a daughter in 2009 too!), I feel like I gain weight when I look at food. Luckily for me, my husband has the same struggle, so he gets to annoy me for other reasons. ;) I'd love to join your support group, so please feel…

I'm always on the go too and struggle with this problem. I hit the Dunkin' Donuts drive-thru every morning after I drop my kids at school and on the way to work. They have an egg white turkey sausage wrap that is really delicious and only 150 calories. When I eat breakfast at home, I have the Jimmy Dean Omelettes with ham…
