Cute comment being so obsessed with food that you eat several times a day. When I was 20 years old, I forgot to eat or didn't take the time to eat all day. Now that I am 40 years older, I never forget about food.

I need to be obsessed with planning what to eat. It is so easy for me lately to stop and get fast food and eat in the car. If I don't change that habit now, I'll never reach my goal weight!!

Hi. I belong to TOPS in Naperville, IL. We have a few members who use MFP. I like it because it is easy to log my food journal here. It olso syncs with my fitbit.

Hope you get to Kops as planned. I can't get there for 47 weeks @ 1 lb. per week . Feel so bad that I was not better during the summer. Did not help our group by losing weight for the summer contest. Had a lot of up and downs. Still plan to enjoy the Fall Rally in October even if I don't win any awards. Listening to…

Having problem lately with self control. Need a new start that sticks. Have told myself that today is "day one", but find excuses to let myself slip and eat too much to have a loss. Think about missing a Tops meeting so my gain is not recorded, but "MY EXCESS POUNDS ARE THERE" and will never go away if I lose my support…

You should probably ask you area captain and regional director for advise on how other groups have handled the question. I am pretty sure our club would want to keep you in the group and support you. It was a big decision to have gastric bypass and you need to keep a positive attitude and take care of yourself. Our group…

Renewed my DL yesterday. Should have put goal weight on it.

Like the exchange system, but have not used it often. Try to keep it in mind by keeping meals balanced and healthy.

2 pound loss on 5/14

Know when you are really hungry. Don't eat because you're thirsty, tired, stressed, tempted,watching tv etc. Keep track of what you eat. That goes without saying because you are on mfp

Keeping track of what I eat and exercise is a great help. MFP has made it a lot easier for me to stay on track. I was a yo-yo dieter too, but don't want to be in the future.

Our ARD was March 22 and 23 for the Northern IL Area. It had a western theme. A lot of people wore cowboy hats as part of the theme parade. Besides the speakers, awards, leader intros, chapter queens and kings, division, and state king and queens etc., we had line and square dance lessons, square dancers perform, yoga,…

On dr oz show about fatigue, he said that statin drugs cause fatigue. I have been fighting fatigue for a long time. Asked by doctor if I could take coq10 as suggested on the show to counteract the drug. He said yes. Hope it works.

Congrat on both being co-leader and so close to goal.
-
We had our election and I was voted in as leader. I'm a little afraid because I'm far from the best speaker in the group and I have a quiet voice. Our two last leaders were former teachers, well organized and did excellent jobs. Our leader and co-leader both did not want the leader job this term. They and our whole group…

Our chapter has 23 members. Average attendance is 17. Weigh in starts at 8:40 and meeting starts at 9:10. We seem to start close to on time. The weight recorders and treasurer are the people who miss out on the start of the meeting because they handle anyone who comes late. The late ones try to sneak in quietly and not…

Just elected leader of my TOPS group. Volunteered because I have gotten so much support from my group the last 4 years. Hope I can motivate the group as much as our past leaders. I'm not as good a public speaker as they are.....both ladies are former teachers. What is great about our group is that we all work together to…

Sorry didn't answer you way back when....our group sits in a circle. We go around the circle and say whether or not we .lost weight and we answer a question. Today we answered how many times a week we eat oatmeal and what toppings we add to it. Some people eat it with blueberries, peaches,flax seed, cinnamon, butter, milk…
