CONGRATULATIONS!!!! What an inspiring story!!!! You're amazing!

I'm a daily logger and an open book....

Details please...:)

Hi Sam ! Feel free to add me...I don't run on the trails, but if I was in the right climate, I would. I'm usually chained to my treadmill. Good luck on your journey...

Hey Amanda! Welcome to MFP! This is an awesome site. Feel free to add me. Good luck on your journey! U can do it!

I buy the low fat/low cal creamy dressings and use a teaspoon of it and mix in two tablespoons of fat free sour cream. That way I can have more dressing and less calories. I also add sliced or diced peppers to my salad...fruit salad is good too

Yep, I'm an incliner:) It mimic outdoors to a certain extent, but its good for building muscles, as well. Yes, your incline can be logged just put the speed and "on incline" . Happy running/walking

I'm thinking you will be ok with the salmon and veggies. I would stay away from the alcohol and have a diet soda instead...but I am not a drinker so I wouldn't be able to suggest any drinks.

that's AWESOME!!!! Congrats!

Good luck you're going to love this site!

Isn't that one of the most wonderful feelings??? Life is good...

Yep, was four days late this month...

I agree with YeahMe, Boca burgers are delicious!!! I am a vegetarian, I haven't eaten meat since June, 2010 and I love it. I have about three vegetarian recipes on my page under recipes, feel free to try them...

I have noticed this, I thinks its because of the hard workout and more rest is needed. Of course, the hubby is not so pleased:/

I absolutely love this site, like you said it makes you accountable for everything you put in your mouth. have fun and enjoy ur journey...

Yep, well at least some of them. You can't always eat all of them...

First let me say that your weight loss and health goals are for you not for your boyfriend. If he does not want to support you as you try to become a healthier you, you're better off without him. He obviously have insecurities of his own. I can't believe he says he will dump you if you lose weight. You need to take of…

I like MFP because it makes you accountable. You're conscious of what you're eating and you make sure you get your workout in because you know you have to write it down and look at it. Whoever invented this is awesome!

Hey Floyd! Congratulations on finding the strength to pick yourself back up and get back on the plan. Good Luck on Your Journey!

Maybe do some weight lifting and upper body stuff...

Thank you for posting this question, I had it all wrong and now will make an effort to eat my workout calories or at least some of them...

I personally do not use the extra calories I earn from my workout. I think you would not lose or gain if you do so. But, I could be wrong. But sometimes I only lose 2 lbs eating my alloted for the day so eating anything extra may make me gain...

M & M Peanut!!!! I also love SmartFoods White Cheddar Popcorn and although its 100 cals per bag I can swallow 4 bags in one sitting with lots and lots of hot sauce...so I try to have only one bag, but sometimes I may have one for afternoon snack and one for evening snack. Like you said its all about…

sorry I meant elliptical

Hi!!! I have been working out on a treadmill for 12 years and I love it. You will definitely see resutls using a treadmill as long as you are managing the other parts of your diet. 12 years ago I started off by walking for 20 minutes (walk at a speed at which you could have a conversation, but rather not; I walked at 3.5).…

i Pepsigal...don't give up, hang in there. You are probably just retaining water and should see a difference when you weigh in next week. I would definitely suggest you give up Coke and perhaps replace it with Coke Zero or Diet Coke. I am a soda drinker, but when I realize that regular soda has up to 45 grams of sugar per…

Don't call yourself ugly...you just see some things that you want to change and are doing what you need to do to change it. I would recommend a treadmill, that's what I have and I love it. If you're looking for something a little cost friendlier different workout tapes are good as well such as aerobics and step aerobics.…

When you stop for gas, do some squats and some jumping jacks...easy on the snack foods; take fruit and if you stop at fast foods restaurants, go for the items lowest in calories...godd luck and drive safely.

Maybe aerobics or dancing???

Hi Mya, the serivng size is usually posted on the packaging, but yes the 1 slice is a serving and 2 slices would be two servings...good luck on your journey!
