Congrats on one-derland, @conniescakes1 ! That's amazing progress in a short time. Keep it up! @VioletLemon congrats on making the changes needed to succeed! Welcome to the group. @showey27 thanks for the reminder that faster is not always better. I'm a bit impatient when it comes to waiting for things to change.…

Can I join even if I'm so late?

Same here. SAHM of 3 and the afternoon I will eat constantly if I can get away with it. I know it's partly habit, lack of energy, and like you said a "reward" for making it through another day. I die a little every day with guilt for being a hypocrite. Expecting my kids to have better healthy habits than I have managed to…

Sorry I been missing for a couple days. Still getting used to MFP and checking the notifications and such. I forgot about this thread since I posted! My oldest has a heart condition that he had repaired at a young age, so I am grateful to keep him home and away from the germs at public school. However, it's ironic that my…

I too am more likely to binge right after I've eaten a meal. I think my main problems are: lack of variety in my food choices (my body is still "craving" because it's missing something), too little water (again, body is craving water, but I register it as a food craving) and just habit (eating in front of the TV or when…

I'm a SAHM of three and babysit two more. Three years ago I was very close to my goal weight, but here I am thirty pounds away (gained all of it back plus a few more) and ready to change. I am almost 36 years old. This will be my first group since coming back. My goal is to lose 25 by Labor Day. The 12 weeks of this…

Homeschooling mom of 3 (3rd grade, 1st grade and Pre-K). I also babysit two under the age of 2. I have to admit I sometimes look at the moms that send their kids to school and wonder what they do with all their time?! =) I tend to use homeschooling and babysitting as an excuse for why I'm so tired and sleeping too late to…

I am just starting (again), hoping to lose 25lbs by Labor Day. Add me. We can do this! I'm bridesmaid in the fall and want to get toned for the short, strapless dress!

I'm 5ft 7in, 170lbs, 35yrs and goal weight around 140-145

Last week: 164.6 This week: 163.0 Change: Lost 1.6 this week after losing 2 last week. Heading in the right direction!

Thanks Jodi, you too! I knew that nine pounds wouldn't stay on you very long. Sorry about the injury... have your tried a chiropractor? It's the only thing that keep my neck from aching all the time from an injury I had in high school. I finally started going a couple years ago and I feel like a different person!

Last week: 166.6 This week: 164.6 Change: Lost 2 lbs, it was after a big gain - but I'm still happy it's moving in the right direction.
-
Great challenge! Looking forward to getting back on track with this!
-
Today I didn't do as well, but I did have cooked carrots at lunch and then more mixed veggies at supper.
-
Jodi! I was hoping you'd come here! You had a great week, keep it up!

I've always been more of a veggie person than fruit. There are few fruits that I eat. =/ Veggies are limited too, but not quite as much. I hate being so picky.
-
Today I had beans, corn, tomato dish for lunch. Then for dinner I made sweet potatoes and had a frozen veg mix (corn, carrots, beans, peas). So I did great for veggies today!

Hi! I need weekly weigh-ins and someone to keep me accountable. I had gotten down to 147 two years ago, which was really close to perfect for me. But now I'm back up to 166.6 Frustrated that I let it get away from me like that. I'm a stay-at-home mom so food is always only a few steps away. Right now I'm worried about…

My weight from Wednesday: 166.6 lbs Goal weight in 15 weeks: it would be awesome to hit 150 about a pound a week.
-
I agree, first pair I tried on fit me perfectly. Can't wait to go back and get one size smaller (maybe next month?) =)

I haven't experienced this myself yet, but I've heard you should eat additional calories to gain a couple (no more than three) pounds then decrease your calories back to the previous amount until you plateau again. Repeat at each plateau. I am looking forward to reading the other replies as well.
