Thank you for sharing, that is truely amazing. I just turned 41 and have been going back and forth with MFP for over a year not really sticking to it. I decided today that I would start each day with a success story. Thank you for being the first, I feel inspired. I related to just about all that you said!

I work night shift so I have this problem all the time. What I do is count it on the day before because I haven't gone to sleep and ended my day yet! My day starts when I get up and ends when I go to bed no matter what the calander says or the clock on the wall, hope this helps......good luck!

I just did the 30 day shred for the first time and I have no idea how to put that in the exercise tracker it won't except anything I try! Hows everyone else charting it?:embarassed:

I hear you, my classes start back today too. I actually had the night off but have been up since 2:am should be an interesting year, taking 18 credits and working at night. Ugh where do I fit exercise into that!

welcome to the new people, this is a great place to be.

I'm in, I need people to keep pushing me! 10-12# sounds real reasonable by Halloween!

thank you, that was amazing, you are an inspiration!:drinker:

Thanks so much for your story, I've been really struggling and I feel much better after reading this!:bigsmile:

wow, everyones kids are going back to school so early, mine has a couple of weeks yet, but I start back on Monday, ugh I'm so nervous!:ohwell: Didn't do much of anything yesterday, my hip was giving me problems. But after a day of rest I'm feeling pretty good and ready to start taking back control of this thing. I could…

Starting out my day on a good foot, I have been stuck in a so so place lately. Not going over my calories but not eatting real health. This is a life style change not just a quick fix!:happy: So today I am taking care of me and watching everything I do and eat closely. I am starting my day on here reading what others are…

hmmm, I haven't got the quote thing down yet, but I'm a day late but willing to try it starting today!:glasses:

I had a great 12hr shift my plan worked out well, now I will enjoy my couple of days off! And get some much needed exercise!

hey Stephanie I know a couple of people that have had lap band surgery and they swear it saved their lives, they bothh seem to be doing great with it. Good luck!

Monday is going good so far, but I'm headinfg in to work for another 12 hr. shift 7pm till 7am. But I am back on making a plan to make it through. Tonight will be a good night. Around 9:30 I'll have some fresh fruit to hold me over until I can have dinner, which will be around 2:am, then fruit and yogurt around 5:00 am for…

hade kind of a rough couple of days , but still working at it... CW 245:smile:

hi everyone, I've been working real long hrs. the last few day. 12 and 16 hr. night shifts I'm tired and have been doing poorly on my eatting. The most of my exercise has been happening at work, and I just feel out of sorts and need some encouragement to get back on track! I'm going to start my day now with a nice health…

ok hopefully I've got the hang of this now, so after finding the daily challenges late I only missed one( not to bad for not even knowing what they were!:blushing: ) So now that I know where to find them I'm all set to do this. Thanks for all the support I'm getting so far and everyone keep up the good work!

count me in I have at least a 100# to lose, feel free to friend me I need all the help and support I can get!:bigsmile:

I also work night shift, it can really take a toll on your weight loss efforts. I'm just starting out myself but whats been really helping me is having a plan as to what I can eat at night and making sure I get enough sleep and exercise. I know it's hard to fit it all in. Check out the nightshift thread I'm sure you'll get…

wow, how did I miss this thread before! So, I work nightshift and if thats not bad enough I am a fulltime student and mom of 4. Just got off of work and now I'm headed to school for an 8 hour orientation, then I'll come home and sleep and then back to work tonight! Not much time for exercise today, really just hoping to…

Welcome, it's a great place to be!

hi, and welcome! I glad your here you'll get lots of support, feel free to friend me.

I hate to sound lame , but whats shredheads?

good morning ladies, I've been gone for 4 days, brought my daughter back to school. Then went down to see my oldest son and sister and nephew. It was hot and humid and we work really hard to get ny daughters apartment set up. We got a lot of exercise and went shopping so we could eat in! That was the best thing to do, we…

wow, you look amazing!

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to get the weight loss bar under my post like most of you have....kinda confused. Other than that I've got a very active day planned I have to help my daughter pack, and load the truck I'm moving her back to college tomorrow. Eatting is going to be a challange this week, but I am…

welcome MFP is a great place to be, and get the support you need!

I work night shift so I just figure I wont eat anything the last 4 hours before bed. That works great for me whether I'm working or have the night off.
