Congratulations............you look amazing!

I am very excited for you.......We sometimes forget that with everyday comes new milestones, whether it is walking further without getting tired, not needing that second helping of our favorite foods, remembering to log onto MFP and posting our information or losing 11 lbs and fitting into a Boston Red Sox shirt and…

Having children is a blessing but it does take a toll on our girlish figures. There is hope and it starts right here so, you just need to do one day at a time and you will see the weight come off. The key is not to skip meals, try to keep a schedule, I don't eat after 7:30pm and drink 8 to 12 glasses of water a day. I…

I eat rice but for the most part it is long grain wild rice, brown rice and I like quinoa as well. I use the range free organic no salt added chicken broth when I cook it to add flavor and whatever spices I feel like. We have it twice a week and measure it out always plenty left over and with a protein and vegetables makes…

Thanks for sharing.....you look great congratulations! :flowerforyou:

I check in every Sunday morning before breakfast. We are doing this as a family and since Jan 01 we meet at the scale for our measurements and weigh in then post it on a white board and on MFP. Keeps us all honest :smile:

Thanks for the info....I increased some of my calories but felt guilty eating back all and I only lost 1 lb this week and before I was averaging 2.5 to 4 lbs a week.

If you really enjoy fruit, I make up a fruit salad using fresh pineapple, 2 ruby red grapefruit, 3 oranges, 2 crisp tart apples. Being almost all citrus it last a week and for a 1/2 cup it is only 34 calories.

Great news...........keep up the good work!

Skinny Cow always satisfies my sweet tooth.....or frozen all natural fruit pops

Congratulations..........it is so much fun to see the transformation. Great Job!

You look so amazing............That is what this is all about, isn't it a life style change. My husband and 16yr old son are also joining me in my life style change and are doing very well. I didn't have to drag them along kicking and screaming, I just cook less food and in a healthier way and they even get to pick…

Make sure you are eating healthy foods every 2 to 3 hrs and get plenty of water. I don't eat anything after 7pm or 3 hours before bed but still have a glass of water. I never feel hungry and had lost 15lbs before starting MFP and another 20 since. Make sure if your exercising your not eating to few calories or your body…

We are doing this as a family and it was easier for us to gather together on Sunday in the morning before breakfast. We weigh in at 7 am every Sunday and record or weight on a white board with the date. We started on January 1st and have faithfully recorder every week.

Such a great idea............thanks for sharing!

Great job............you look amazing and so refreshed. Excellent work!

With a little one it is sometimes hard to get those mini meals in (snacks) but I found having my water bottle handy and eating every 2.5 hrs with a schedule helped with the hunger pains. Don't work out or walk if your hungry your body needs fuel and it will zap you and give you a headache. I stated by choosing all my…

I started my life style change on Jan 01 and I had lost 20lbs before my co-workers who haven't been following my journey noticed. It showed up in my face, neck and chest first. I have lost 34lbs total and now everyone notices started out at 224lbs and this weeks weigh in was 190lbs. Congratulations to us all for taking…
