I have it, too. I wasn't sure if I would like it but I have learned so much! I didn't lose any weight at first and it turned out I wasn't eating enough to cover my activity. Now I stay between 750 and 1000 cal. deficit a day and I am losing 1 to 2 lb a week. It is great and using MFP for my food makes it that much easier.…

Hi everyone-- I have been wearing my armband for almost three weeks. At first I didn't lose anything, I actually gained! the first week. The second week I lost like .6 lb or something like that and this week I will weigh in on Wed. but I feel better so I will be surprised if I didn't lose. I think my biggest problem is…

It's on my Christmas list, too! I think the Body Bugg is more accurate but you have to pay for the monthly service charge...

OMG that is so great! It is such a wonderful surprise when something unexpected happens (like clothes fitting ;) You are doing an amazing job!

You can totally wear a bikini!!! It is about your confidence in yourself!!!

It's all on you, I enjoy weighing in on Mondays but it is hard sometimes not to weigh in all the time!!!! Maybe not having a scale will force you to notice your non-scale victories:)

WooHoo!!!!

Isn't if funny how family is the first to make you feel bad for feeling great?! At least once a week, my Mother tells me that I don't have to be so obsessive, I just need to practice moderation. Oh, and that if I spent less money at the gym I would be able to save more money!!! I have been able to say, "Thanks" and walk…

Every time a person says, "You look good...for someone who's had 3 kids..." I just want to scream!!! Why can't I just look good--period?! Oh, and my fiance said to me one time, "Wow, Babe...You were the best looking woman at that party! The biggest, but the best looking..." I think he thought that because he said I was the…

Thanks to everyone! I don't do yoga in a class but I have been doing a pilates for posture at home. I am going to research exercises to strengthen my knees. It doesn't really hurt today (thank goodness!)

SW 196 W1 195 W2 194 W3 195 GW 175 Okay, so I am not really excited about gaining back last weeks loss but "it is what it is"

I agree with the people who said that friends and family don't always say anything because they are afraid of offending you. I have only lost 4 lb and I said something at work the other day. The lady I work with said that she noticed my stomach was flatter when I was sitting on floor with the kids (I work in preschool) and…

Have you tried nuts or beans? The first two weeks were so hard for me--I went from eating like 3000 cal a day to 1200 cal. I figured out quick that I could exercise and earn more calories so I was all over that :) Anyway, I figured out what foods filled me up and which left me hungry. Give yourself some time to figure it…

SW 196 W1 195 W2 194 GW 175 I was hoping to lose more than a pound a week but it's still the beginning :)

Please add me as well! Having two friends on MFP is kind of lame :)

Hi all! I am a little behind but better late than never! My current weight (as of March 12) is 196.6 lb. My goal is 21 lb or 175. My reason for this goal is to make me have a reason to lose! I have tried to lose weight for like 7 years but now I will actually feel bad if I have to type that I didn't do it :)

Miles Today: 2 Miles Completed: 8 Miles to Go: 52 I am way less active than I thought it would be!!!! I am really struggling to get in my miles every day.

I did 3 miles on the elliptical today. It was so hard! I set it up for 25 minutes and only got to 1.5 miles. I had to do it again for another 30 minutes! But I got it done :) Miles today--3 Total--3 Miles to go-57

Okay, I am new to MFP but would love to join this challenge! I figured it is roughly 3 miles a day, there are 20 days left in the month, so I am altering it to the March 60 mile Challenge. Can I do that? I am so excited to have a goal that I can attain so quickly. Tomorrow I am meeting my friend at the gym and I will do my…
