That was a great video. Thanks for posting the site. I took me some time after starting MFP to learn that but the video was encourgement. Thx.

Hey!! I am on 1200 you are welcome to add me :smile:

You are welcome to add me. I have been doing mfp for a year now. I really needed to know there were others ready to change also.

Yeah!!!! So glad you two are doing this together. My hubby, not so much. He just doesn't get it. Hopefully he will get it someday (before the heart attack)

I have found for me one bite will send me into binge city. So I have had to learn to not have the first bite. Then I log. Yes logging can be a pain especially during a binge. But for me I will stop binging sooner then later if I keep logging. I am binging less and less as time goes on. Give yourself a break and don't keep…

Don't be too hard on yourself. Just take it one step at a time. Maybe by just started with logging one meal a day for a few days. Then when you get comfortable with that you could go to logging 2 meals a day. This is going to be a process. You are not going to be able to do and know all in just a few days or even weeks.

Hey! I am 5'0 :0) and shrinking hahaha

I am in!!!! I am 5'. I started at 240 and am 172 now. I have 57 left to go. With the holidays fast approching I will need EVERYONE to keep me going :flowerforyou:

You are welcome to add me.

I went to fitnessfrog.com tdee calculator. I figured out what my calories for my ultimate goal weight with no exercise. Then I deducted 100 calories. That is what I am having. Let me know if I need to change it. :flowerforyou:

I went to fitnessfrog.com to the tdee calculator. I put in my stats for my ultimate goal weight. Then little to no exercise for life style. It gave me 1800 calories. I took that 1800 and subtracted 500. So now I am having 1300 calories as my daily intake. Most days I get it done. Other days I don't but always start over…

Hey! You are welcome to add me.

WOW!! I didn't know that there were so many shortys out there! I am so happy to see that I am not setting my goal too low. I was thinking I needed to reset my orginal goal. But yall have shown me that my goal is ok. Several I work with think I am crazy to get to 115. But when I am there they will see what I suppose to be…

I'm in!! CW: 175 GW 165 by Dec 1

Hey!! Glad to see you wanting to get things moving in the right direction. I am only 5ft and should be about 115lbs when I hit my goal. That said I eat 1200 per day. I don't get much exercise at the moment. But when I was making to the gym,(cause I can't get into it at home), I made sure I ate back my calories. I didn't…

Thank you for the info!! I really needed that. I also go back and forth on which is better. Now I know.

Goning to challange you!! CW: 183 GW: 163 Can't wait to get there!!! For me this will be another size smaller in jeans!! WOOHOO!

I didn't snack before bed!!! I have a problem sucking down food right before bed :-(

Hey!! On a good day, when I stretch real tall I am 5'. Send me a request. I love to encourage people.

You are doing great!! Keep up the good work. I am trying to get down to there. Thank you for inspiration!!

Try to motivate them to do MFP with you. If they can't see what they are doing MFP will help them. Keep talking about what you are seeing on MFP as far as calories(that is what I did.) When they see you saying "no" to things that are not in your calorie budget they will be courious how you can not eat those things. And…

My motivation: I may not be looked at right now BUT I am doing something about it now. If I had not started when I did then it would be longer before someone noticed me. ONE of these days there will be that one person to notice and it will have been worth it. P.S. It sounds like the hubby is not happy with himself. Maybe…

Just a tid bit for the vitamin problem. Get a multi vitamin. I can't take adult vitamins so I do 2 Flintstones every day. I found it helped so much that I can tell when I forget them.

I am in!! I need a new challange. I am 5ft and 193 :-( I gained 2lbs this past week.

Happy Birthday!!!! Congrates!! Can't wait to see picts when you reach your next goal.

Just want to say HI. I am a shorty. I am a working mom with 3 kids, 2 grown step kids and a 4month old grand-baby. My husband and I decided to get a membership to the local YMCA last November. And I found MFP because of a co-worker. I have totally fallen in love with it!! I have really been able to keep track of what I am…
