Thank you everybody. This is what I needed today to get off to a good start.:happy:

I need all the email buddies I can get!. :smile: Thank you. I have a niece that joined this week and we are trying to do this together. It would be good to have somebody else I am accountable to as well. This will be my motivation for now.

:ohwell: I joined MFP a couple of months ago and it went great for 2 weeks. I lost 8 pounds and was feeling excited. I had some things happen at home and absolutely sabotaged all of that progress and added even more weight. I have been dragging my feet but summer peeks around the corner and I have nothing to wear. I…

LOVED the sayings. I am going to write them up and put them on my mirror. I don't want to add an additional two miles to my workouts. I have nine kids and not a lot of time. I guess I don't have time to eat chocolate if I want to counter the effects. For now, the rule is to be NO CHOCOLATE IN THE HOUSE. That's okay though…

Thank you everybody for the support. It's a new day and I am hopeful for a better one than yesterday. It is good to not feel alone in this effort. I think I am not quite strong enough to even have chocolate in the house. It's too early yet. I've allowed myself to be controlled by food for too long instead of me being in…

I feel like I am committing suicide, one piece of chocolate at a time. I have had two great weeks using this website and then I feel like I am sabatoging myself, just when I am being successful. I know I am not eating this because I am hungry. Does anyone have any ideas of how to get over this speed bump? I don't want the…

You just go to tools and click on get your own personal ticker now. It will walk you through it. That will give you the one that comes with MFP's website. To go offsite, you can use tickerfactory.com. You copy the ticker code that is for blogs and message boards and you put that in with your signature. I think that it is…

Wow! You have lost 26 pounds since December? How much exercise do you do?

You've taken the first step. I just joined a couple of days ago and it really makes me think about the wisdom of stuffing that chocolate or whatever into my mouth. It is just not worth it because then I enter it and find out that I am out of calories for the day and dinner is going to be salad only. I also found it easier…

Hi Lauryn, this is Denise (dlarson). I signed myself up a few days ago and I encouraged my sister to join but she wouldn't do it unless I got her started so I opened her account for her. I forgot to log out of her new account and back into mine before I posted. That was what caused the problem. I heard that you lose some…

Wow! 46 pounds?! How long did that take you? I am impressed.

How were you able to get the blog to show your ticker?

Thank you. I am having a lot of fun fiddling around with this website. Obviously, I am a little bit computer illiterate. I have lost three pounds since Sunday but I am sure that it will slow down a little bit. My body is just in shock from not having junk food every day.

I accidently posted my information while being logged into the site on my sister, Melanni's account. All of that was from ME!
