  • I'm giving WW a try for the first time. I've used calorie counting with great success over the years only to gain it back once I stopped tracking because while I would eat under my calories, I wouldn't necessarily be making healthy choices. Hoping WW helps me lose the weight once and for all and teaches me to grab for the…

  • Hello, there! I'm new here as well, and it's not my first time at this rodeo, either. ;) I really feel like attitude and commitment make all the difference in the world. I spent a long time thinking "Why do I need to count my food when (insert name of skinny friend) gets to eat whatever they want and stay thin?" But what…

I'm not a daredevil, and I don't even like roller coasters, but for some reason it looked like the ultimate freedom. When I get to my goal weight, I'm going to do it. No…

  • I'll join this club! I'm in a similar boat, although I work outside the home. I have a 2 and 4 year old and by the time I pick them up at daycare and drive home it's after 6pm. Then it's dinner, baths, and little bit of playing, then bedtime around 8:45-9:00 or so. They invariably get out of bed a few times (but mommy, I…

  • This is probably the best thing I've ever seen on MFP. It really hits home for me and I'm going to remember this each time I feel like giving up. Thank you! To the OP, I would just like to congratulate you on your weight loss because you've lost 4 lbs that you'll never see again! Keep moving forward and focus on the goal…
