  • I've used food as a coping mechanism for as long as I can remember as well. Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experiences. I hope the family drama has settled down a bit. Being consciously aware of unconscious eating is a step forward. Journaling may help too. Fasting/cleanses can help reduce cravings and gives…
    in I thought my life ruining binge habits were behind me. Looks like i was wrong and i'm freaking out Comment by j9stagemgr July 2017
  • I'd like to play along. I have a start weight today. I've put in place MFP, FitBit, and journaling. I've set up a daily goal for Mo-Th (while I'm at this job) to walk the stairs 3x today; to eat fruit 1st, then veggies 2nd, then a salad - then after all that, if I still want sweets, I've got a pre-packaged,…

  • My Blaze is arriving on Tuesday 18 July. I bought the Flex in 2012 or '13 when it was brand new - - it never worked well; it monitored "sleep" when I drove or pushed a shopping cart; wouldn't charge; wouldn't hold a charge; customer service back then was a "nope"; it lived on a shelf for about 3+ years. I recently joined…

  • Hey all ... looking to for the accountability ... the problem is, I get out here to these message/discussion boards/forums and make a comment, then can't ever find it again?! I've commented about 6 times and for the life of me, have no idea in which forum I posted. Anyway: I'm a binge eater and binge exercise-er ... I'm…

  • Hi Sharyn... I usually tackle tasks alone as well - I too am reaching out and looking for community support. I'm all for "attagurl" 's and being held accountable. When I binge, I bow & hide out; when stresses get tougher, I runaway (and binge some more). My goal is to exercise daily, embrace portion control, track calories…
    in Used to going Solo - Need a Community Comment by j9stagemgr July 2016
  • Thanks for the response - - when I'm in the Diary, it's an endless loop. I did discover though digging through tons of message boards, that MFP does NOT record calories burned for Strength Training - - it HAS to be logged in under Cardiovascular! So, I made sh*! up and put it under Cardio and got some calories subtracted.…

  • Hi. What's your goal? I'm tired of parts of my rubbing that shouldn't, like the fat under my arms (I call it my "side boobs" and the gut that sits on the thighs ... it's just too much for me and I need to burn it off. I read a story the other day about a guy who worked out every day for like 700 days, so I decided I was…

  • Hey y'all - I started last year but only did about 3 weeks of recording - sometimes it's more time consuming to post and log and track and journal .... anyway, I'm in the same boat as all y'all. Starting new: Jan. got lots o' goals and hopes and ambitions and intentions. I love to hide out but I need accountability; it's…
