Like many of you, I have had an inactive MFP account for a long time. I recently experienced a reality check and am feeling incredibility motivated again. I'm ready to take control of my health! However, I fear this feeling will fade like most New Year's resolutions. Any advice on how to preserve this motivation through…

Hi everyone. I've been on this site off and on for years, but have never been able to get into a routine. My goal was to lose 20 pounds, but instead I gained 15! While I generally do well with my food choices, I find it sooo difficult to great a workout routine and stick with it. Like paigebeverly, I enjoy my time at the…

:wink: I am in! May 2010 Challenge here I come!

I'd say my biggest problem is that I only need to lose about 20 lbs to reach my final goal. I've always been a very confident person no matter my weight, so sometimes I talk myself into believing that the BMI scale is complete crap and that my body doesn't need to lose weight... it's just a ploy to eat heavily sugared…

I know what you mean about the summer! Summer is my absolute favorite time of the year and I want to spend it without embarrassment or hesitation! I want the sun to kiss my skin this summer, not just the bridge of my nose. : ) I went outside this morning and I could smell spring nearing, that means summer's just around the…

Tahnks so much. That's very helpful.

How might I go about setting some smaller goals? Any suggestions? I think if I set a goal to difficult it may make things harder if I fall short.
-
I look around and I see a lot of people have little mini weight loss goals. Does it help more to have little goals? How do you set these goals? Has anyone ever not met their goal, and what effect did that have on you? I've been following the rules more or less and I haven't seen much difference. Do you guys think having…

Birthday Cake for breakfast is a SERIOUS temptation. I cannot deny I eating it for breakfast in the not too distant past. But you're exactly right! Getting back on track... I am with you!

I thought Alicia Keys was beautiful, and of course I have always loved Kate Winslet. I think if the world just moves pas the whole Brad/ Jennifer thing, maybe they could too. Hopefully. It must be hard to forget about something when the rest of the world keeps reminding you. :(

Today I did more exercise than I've done in months. I feel so successful! I did pilates and took a long hike with my dogs. I feel wonderful!

Well, I have a similar situation in my house. The women in my house eat healthy, but there are also two large men. They don't believe a meal can exist without grease and heavy meat. Dinner is made every night here, so there's that temptation around always. My suggestion is that you separate the healthy food from where the…

I know exactly what you mean about finding a job. It's so frusterating and almost humiliating. I dread hitting the pavement day after day, scrambling to get a job, and only finding that you're either not qualified or hearing nothing back. I have been searching for a job for over two months! It's a really depressing…

I was in a very intense theater program, which included a pilates workout and I found if my body was cold or not warmed up enough, my bones hurt when they pushed against the floor. I suggest making sure you are pumped before starting the tape, as well as the previously suggested advice of getting a thicker mat or putting…

Wow! You're amazing! I just stay clear of McDonalds because I KNOW I won't be able to resisit. Today I survived the temptation of delicious, syrupy frech toast. It was difficult, i know, but I feel better about myself in the end. Again, great job!

I really understand about the freshman 15. I am a sophomore and I STILL have the freshman 15. Hopefully, I'll spend some of college at my regular size. Gook Luck with your 15!

Yes, It's under "Stretching" On the same subject... Does anyone know what pilaties might be similar to? It's not on the list.

Hi, everyone! I have never tried something like this, so I am a little nervous. What kind of "community" is this? Does everyone talk regularly, or do you tend to post when you have a breakthrough? Well, I may be coming back for more answers later... like I said, I'm new.
