This is inspiring! I joined MFP two years ago and have been struggling to make progress. Posts about someone losing really quickly are great but at the same time make me feel defeated. I am not going to give up. Your post today really inspires me! Keep up the great work.

Hobo with a Shotgun. I could only watch 5 minutes.

I have been logging a modified version of some exercises. If I go bowling with my two kids and we are there for 2 hours, I try to stay standing up the whole time and only log abot 20 minutes of exercise (120 minutes of bolwing divided by 3 - because I was only bolwling a third of the time, (my kids= the other two thirds) =…

I don't know if you have any Sunoco's or Kangaroo's on your journies, but both gas stations offer yogurt, fresh fruit, cheese sticks, fruit cups like ruby red grapefruit cups and water. And Kangaroo in my town offers a fresh brewed green tea that is fabulous! (not sure if it's diet- I think it is made with real sugar. But…

I think that canned friuts are a waste. Almost zero nutrients or fiber and a ton of sugar.

18. Not sure if it was hormonal or not because I was pregnant. Now I have tons of silvery strands 13 years later. Sometimes I worry about them sometimes I love them.

Cocoa Cola is always fat free

Lost 15 pounds so far and my pants have gone from "tight" to "no more muffin top".

Make your own weights! Milk jugs filled with sand, water, whatever.

Even an empty glass is full of air.

I brew green tea using my cofee pot and then add a generic crystal light packets for flavorings. I make a gallon at a time and drink it iced. :)

I like to bring oranges. Shrimp skewers are good too ( I buy frozen peeled and deveined shrimp) Eggs are a healthy breakfast. Have fun camping!

"I do not think that word means what you think it means"

Do you reply "As you wish"???

Totally know the feeling! I work at a school, so I when I'm off for summer break it throws off my schedule like crazy. My plan is to stay determined, keep fruits and healthy snacks close by and also use more free time working out. Also staying busy by swimming, bowling, playing tennis or frisbee with my kids, walking the…

If you want to get out, find a gym with a daycare. Or you can turn playtime into a workout!! "Tummy time" can be mommy's "push-up time" or crunches. Lay on the floor next to your little one and do leg lifts, yoga stretches... sit with your legs spread as far apart as possible, put the baby in the middle facing you and try…

My song is going to be Queen's "Another one Bites the Dust". I have had this picked out since I was a teenager! This post excited me because I've always had a song picked out and when I discussed it with my best friend she made me feel weird and morbid. Nothing weird or morbid about facing reality right? My husband and my…

Jaws The Goonies The Matrix Inception Pulp Fiction Silence of the Lambs Braveheart or The Patriot Passion of the Christ Avatar Independence Day Any James Bond movies Probably a bunch more too...

I am very thoughtful and remember birthdays :) -well most birthdays.

Black beans!! Drain them and rinse then add to anything! Salads, corn and tomatoes, eggs, Chicken and black bean quesodillas, by themselves with a little taco bell mild sauce, oh and black bean brownies if you have a sweet tooth (any packaged brownie mix, one regular can black beans-drained and rinsed- make a paste from…

You can adjust your settings here at mfp for gaining weight. They have settings for gaining 1/2 pound to 1 pound a week. You can also post about finding friends who are here for gaining too. Good Luck!

I am from Charleston! The Bridge Run is a fantastic event. I've only walked it once, but oneday I will run it too.

Great job keepimg motivated!

If I had to name just one thing, I'd say drive home from camping this weekend to let me relax. :) (He almost never drives.)

I love this post! I am going to lose 100 pounds too. I started at 265 and I'm down 13 pounds so far. Sometimes I feel so overwhelmed but seeing so many successful people reinforces my motivation. My mini goal is to have 50 pounds gone by my birthday on September 10. Congratulations to all who have accomplished so much! I…

Today I will stay on track because I am tired of feeling so terrible, feeling so guilty for letting myself get to this point, feeling so defeated.

I use any brownie recipe or packaged mix and substitute pureed black beans and a little water for the eggs and oil. They turn out very tasty. My kids said they would have been the best brownies in the world if I hadn't have burned the edges :) I love Ghiradelli triple chocolate brownie mix.

Sketchers have got to be doing something right with their advertising! My son was 2 begging me for z straps. A couple years later it was some horrendous neon green and white light ups aka the ugliest shoes I have ever seen! My son is now 11 and I haven't heard him mention sketchers in a few years thank God. But instead, I…

Straight to the heart of love- Country Bears Soundtrack

I tried Mirena and Nuvaring without gaining weight. I loved both of them. I had the Essure procedure- so no more kiddos or birth control for me. Good luck finding the right one!
