Ice cream, chocolate, lattes, being able to get a latte anywhere and not having to call ahead to see if they have almond milk. I miss yogurt and butter and cheese. I miss it all as I am only one month dairy free but already feeling so much better that I know it is worth it.

GREAT IDEA!!! My huband is 8 inches taller than me and is very muscular and he is still 40 lbs. lighter than me. I just want to weigh less and have more endurance.....will it ever happen?!?!? :)

I figured out how to go in and change my start weight to my weight in July.....thank you for the info!! It just helps mentally to see a loss on the ticker, doesn't it?!?

And did I mention how much I hate seeing 0 lbs lost!!!! Once you join you can't change your start weight, so because I started a year ago I have to lose the 20 before I start seeing a loss on the ticker.....kind of depressing!!!

It's such a struggle everyday. I have two kids that constantly fight and I use it as an excuse to not work out. Started here last year weighing 220 and I don't think I even last two weeks. Started again at the end of July weighin 240 and now am at 232....it feels like it takes forever. I had a few really bad days of eating…

I agree with you both! Even my husband doesn't know what I weigh.....mostly because it is more than him! I would like to try joining this group again. I joined MFP months ago and lost about 8 lbs. and then our house flooded, I had both kids sick and now that I finally have my computer back and set up I have torn my…

You should reward yourself with a new scale :wink:

Way to go - under the 200 mark! Well - my weigh in is 221 - which is probably the same as last week, but we went away for a romantic weekend and I haven't logged my food all week because I have been sick...so I am just happy I didn't gain. I need some motivation! I haven't worked out for 2 weeks now - last week we had…

Good Morning everyone! I am so happy there is a place like this to see everyone struggles and that we aren't all supermoms all the time. I think I struggle most with making time for me - workouts, relaxation, time to make good meals - it all seems to come second to everyone else's needs. That is my goal for this next week…

My weigh in today is 220.6....but I can't remember what I was last week off the top of my head. I was pretty close on my calories every day except the weekend where I completely blew it - but I am still down in weight so I am trying not to dwell on it .

Weight this morning 221.6 and I only did 50 pushups - this week was bad for exercise - my aunt is staying with me recuperating from surgery and I have been so distracted and busy - hopefully this next week is better.

It is so motivating to see the results! I think I get depressed when I don't lose a big number in a week - I think I have watched too many episodes of the Biggest Loser! 100 Push ups - now that is a challenge. I broke my wrist a couple years back and haven't done a push up since - but I am game to try anything :)

I am totally struggling this week with trying to get the exercise in and the calories down. I am at 222 - which I think might be the same as last week. I got in 35 minutes cardio in on Tuesday and Wednesday, but the rest of the time I was either entertaining company or not feeling well.....need to get back on track this…

WOW...I don't even know what to say! Praying for ya! Vent anytime you need it - us moms have to stay together:heart:

I am so happy to see I am not the only one that struggles on the weekend! This week was a real battle as we had company from Friday - Monday and one function after another. I thought I ate well until I came home and logged things. To make it worse my treadmill is right in our tv room and with all the kids and company I…

Maybe that is what I did wrong - looking back at my last few days - I had quite a bit of sodium...and diet soda!! Are you going to do weigh in here next week or will you start another link?

I have had a bad week as far as weight loss - I am at 222 - which might be where I was last week. I had company all weekend and one event after another - after the weekend I had gained 2 lbs.! But I managed to lost it Monday and Tuesday. Tonight I am working on a big work project and might not get my exercise in - feeling…

I find a lot of times I am craving salty things at night so I have two baby dill pickles - only 3 calories!!

I can't remember if I weighed in or not - 221.6 today :)

I am a workign mom so I understand not having time. AND I use to work at a gym so I really don't want to go there and be judged (even though everyone is too busy to notice), so I went and bought a treadmill. I figured it was money well spent! I walk/run on it every night....and I have never been a runner. It is great…

Last Friday 225.6 Today 221.6 3 pounds is a bit frustrating considering all the exercise and all the food I have said No to, but it is progress - and it is not weight GAIN, so that is good.

I would love to join! As someone who's friends are all about 130lbs I can feel very alone in my battle! Started Jan. 18th 230lb. Current: 221.6 Short term goal: 215 in five weeks Next goal: under 200 - and to weigh less than my husband!! Long term: 160 (or whatever feels good!) It is great to see so many in this club! :)…

Question for some of you who may be more experienced with the whole exercise thing. I have been doing the weightloss setting on my treadmill and after 40 minutes I have burned about 170 calories...but the other day I bought a HR monitor watch and it has a calorie setting and it said that I burned 333 calories. How do I…

WOW "abetterme" - I am tired and need a nap just from reading about your day!

WOW...that is awesome! Did you work out like a mad woman or just really concentrate on the food? It is so motivating to see I could possibly have my life back in ONE YEAR!!!

Hello fellow moms! I am new to this - just joined on Jan. 18th - loving the site and just starting to look at the posts/blogs etc. Mrsbuzz - I am totally going through what you are going through. I am craving COKE and MINI EGGS and ICECREAM and CHOCOLATE and MCDONALDS...SO BAD!!! What I am finding is if I plan my day to…

When I do something like that I immediately enter it into my daily log and see if I can try to salvage the day with a light dinner and some exercise. Also, I would go give the rest of them away to anyone you can find - leave them for the secretaries or other teachers!

I think that is a huge deal that you still lost weight while sick - and way to go for being under 200 - that is definitely a huge goal of mine!
