I'm a traveling nurse, always on the road. Been away from MyfitnessPal site, so March 1, 2018 is my start and return day for accountability. My fiancé and I are starting the 5:2 intermittent fasting and I'm looking for accountability buddies.

Add me in, I'm starting intermittent 5:2 fast today, anyone want to start today.

I'm with you, and I'm getting serious...finally used the calorie/food log. My goal is 30lb by Summer.

Hi, been there..and trying to stay sober and eat healthy. I found drinking and bingeing to be my greatest problem... so here I am. Stay motivated and good luck.

I believe the 3rd time is the charm, lost the weight in 2012 and it slowly crept up. So I'm at it again, put on a winter coat of 10lbs over the holidays, and a a whole suit of 20lbs since I last visited this site in 2014...so here I go. This time I'll do a few things differently.

Tatiana, good to hear from you. I've been hibernating also, but still on track. Still reaching for the Valentine's Day challenge, low carb works well...Keep going...Zano Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Weight Loss Tools

Mom216, I feel for you. Last week we had 3 days of icy weather, I did not go out to play. Sorry for your last two days of eating habits, sounds like their behind you now...all is good, except for your ice/snow storm. Stay positive kid, we need you to hit 130 by Valentines day!...Good Luck, Zano

HI TEAM LLC, johannabr - welcome to our group! You are invited at any time; day, night, and inbetween to comment, ask questions, vent, or say really positive and uplifting things about our collective journey. We maintain a low carb diet. Low carb dieting has worked for me in the past and I hope to reach my goal weight this…

HI Everyone, Elfie,Just my opinion.. working out is a really good thing, the sooner the better. Mom216 and VJ150 I know exactly how you feel about the scale, I haven't kicked it though...it cost too much. I have stepped on it and it felt like a "balancing act on a tight rope" to get the right number to bounce downward. Iol…

Elfie,Induction can be rough, but it gets alot better. Your doing well just keep going. Team, The good news is that I'm on a negative spiral down, the bad news is that it feels like a snails pace. The weather here is way to icy in the morning for running, looks like its the tread mill. Little goals are the key, so for me…

Hi Lowcarbers, Well down a couple at 195 lbs yahoo! Great job Pragmatica, I wish I were on the homestrech, ...thats ok....the journey is suppose to be just as fun as the goal! Welcome Elfie9863, glad your here...Keep postin, we have a challenge (choose your weight loss) before valentines day. Mom216, I know about bouncing,…

Hi Everyone, Yeah the motivation is kinda low, the weather is freezing. Call me wimpy, I don't run when there is ice, nope no way, But, that doesn't mean I can't put in a DVD or go for a walk, gotta do somethin. Anyway, the challenge is still on...I'm seven pounds away from 190 so, its reachable. Go Team Go----Zano

Hi LLC Team, All goes well with induction and watching what I eat. Weight loss is steadily going down and I'm feeling good. I definitely changed my eating habits; no diet pop, no processed food, no breads, no sugars or sweetners. I'd like to continue low carb till I hit goal weight or at least till I come close. My…

Good Morning Everyone and Happy New Year, This weekend went great, no slip ups..stayed low carb. I had a few moment craving sugar, but I replaced them with an alternative like a slice of cheese or vegetables. It wasn't exactly like a doughnut or cookie, but it worked. I didn't hit my mini goal of 195 by Jan 1 but thats OK,…

Hey Team, End of year coming which means a new start, this year, together we're going to meet our goals..... One trick that has helped me during induction is I've taken the time to build a low carb lunch and snack so I won't go to the cafeteria and buy junk, this has really helped. Mom216, click on the tools tabs and you…

Jack758, welcome to the group, good luck with induction your gonna do fine. I've had TEMPORARY success with Atkins (my goal is to make it permament), I'm on day 12 of induction. . We've got a challenge going, 10lbs (or another goal if you would like) by Valentines Day. Tatiana_13, I think 5-10lbs is just about right, this…

Good Morning Everyone, The temptation at the office is great, but I've kept very far away from the the chocolate Macedamian nuts. It seems that everyone I know that goes to Hawaii brings back the nuts, a T-shirt, or coffee. Hey... anyone up for a challenge? I know I'm new, but fresh blood bring new ideas...how about 10lbs…

Tatiana_13, that is funny about the high BP, salt, pizza and death! Today is day 10 of induction, I'm going to stop calling it induction after day 14. The scale says 199, which is cool. One thing I'm focusing on is portion control. I pre cooked taco meat last week and put measured portions in a plastic baggy in the freezer…

Hi Everyone, Thanks mom216 for the welcome I've been to two parties and stayed away from non induction type foods. Today is day 6 of induction. I'm posting my mini goals. I think structure is valuable and having a plan a good idea. I really don't feel comfortable telling folks at the office that I'm doing "Atkins", I'd…

Hi Everyone, Thanks VJ150, I'm on day 5 of induction. Using the Atkins plan so I'll TRY to stay away from the scale. I have been working out, combination walk/ run approxiamtely 3 mi. We'll see how it goes. Have a great day and Merry Christmas....Zano

Thanks VJ150, Day 4 of induction. I'll stop counting after two weeks. I hesitate from jumping on the scale because I know its just progress, and the real goal is 165lbs (college weight a 1/4 century ago). Does this group have a weigh in Monday?

Hi everyone, I've been on and off the MFP site for years, I haven't REALLY wanted to commit till now. I'm on my third day of induction. A member of this group told me that this is a low carb site and I sure could use your collective info...can I join?

Hi..third day of induction. I've had success before and hope to sustain it. Anyone know a group of low carbers? Have a great day...Zano.:smile:

Hi, I'm trying Atkins starting today. I've done it before and had success. Unfortunately the weight came back on, this time I'll plan on post weight loss living. Does that make sense? Good luck to all....Zano

Hi Team, Prayerfulmom - have a great time riding your bike. Your workouts are inspirational. I'll be away from home and in the ER for a week of training so my daily routine will be different. Up one pound this week, next weeks gonna be better. I'm gonna keep the water and the logging going, have a great day......Zano S/W…

Happy Friday Team, I'm still wogging, and drinking H20 this week (+100oz). I'm gonna focus on logging every thing I eat. I'm terrible at logging, but thats okay cause this is a new week and a new beginning. Lost 2lbs yoohoo!...Zano SW 211 CW 204 GW 165 lost 2lbs[ url=http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker] [/url]…

Hey fellow snorklers great job on the water drinking... Here's four reasons to drink lots and lots of water... 1. Drinking water enhances fat loss. Water is an essential nutrient. All chemical reactions in the body depend upon it. If you’re trying to lose weight, this can’t be ignored. You won’t be able to lose weight…

Gulp, Gulp, Gulp Team, Four more days for the challenge. Anyone need a snorkel? Lulubar is right, posting has a positive effect on our fitness and diet, Keep up the great job….Zano Created by MyFitnessPal.com -

Hi Team! Well this week has been very special, because I get to connect on line to old friends (since Feb 09) and meet new ones. Still wogging, everyday and I'll lead the challenge. Drink half you weight in ounces. For me that is 103 oz. This week was a nice drop...ONLY because I fliipped the switched, CAME back to what…
