  • Dont give up! It's normal. You're body is still getting use to the new changes. It will work stuff out and then you will start seeing the numbers go down on the scale again. You also want to make sure you are meeting your goal and not going under it all the time. Your body will go into starvation mode and you won't lose…
  • Let's do this!!!

  • I know EXACTLY how you feel! I am also a mommy of two little ones. I also work all day and my hubby works all night. Finding time is soooo hard. Energy too, for that matter. I just started this MFP stuff and it really works great! I stick to my meal plans and I have lost 10 pounds in a few weeks. I also just bought a mini…
  • Welcome! You're in the right place. This website has worked wonders for so many people who were about to give up. Just stick to it and ask us for help when you need it. :)
  • I can try to help. My friend is a trainer and owner of a local Curves center. From what I have learned, you can cleanse your system just by putting better things into it. For example, I use to drink soda every day. I was addicted. But I switched to diet just to have it and hated it so I stopped drinking it altogether.…
  • Hmmm. I would definitely talk to a doctor first. I have tendonitis in my hip and it causes a lot of pain. I have been trying some Yoga and Pilates and it actually feels better. Plus, I am toning the rest of my body at the same time. Good luck!
  • You can do it! :)

But I am hanging int here and doing ok. This site and the forums and friends help soooo much. There's so many people in the same boat to…

  • Click the icon called track food and you can plan your daily menus. You can also track your exercise. Log in your weight and height and also your goals and it will calculate it all for you. I hope this helps. Welcome!!!
  • Definitely put the scale away. Try to do a once a week weight in. You're creating anxiety for yourself by leaving it out and weighing in constantly. As a person with chronic anxiety, I know that anxiety can cause you to actually eat more. Being healthy also means mentally and emotionally too. Don't fret about caving in…

  • I've had that happen where they noticed and still kept shoving stuff at me or telling me I was too thin (totally not true) and that I needed to stop what I was doing and eat eat eat. I think it was jealousy. I was working out five days a week and monitoring my foods while they chose to watch tv and eat out. Congrats to you…

  • It's awesome that we have this site where we can come to for support, or encouragement. Losing weight is hard and it sucks sometimes. But the reward is grand! I just joined (again) last week and I am also looking for friends.
  • Good for you! I can tell you that as long as you stick to it, you can do it! It's been a week for me and I have lost three pounds already! Having to take the time to log everything in is rough at first, but it makes you aware of what you are eating and how much sugars and fats too....eeew! I feel great and haven't had a…
