Are you part of this group, maybe you'll get more responses here - http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/154-arizonans

Todays the day! Anyone ready to weigh in?

Congrats you look amazing!

Your better off just getting up and making it. If you mix all ingredients except ice and refrigerate - you'll still have to spend a few minutes blending to get the smoothie texture and the flavors won't be as good (especially the banana). If you blend and freeze the night before you will have a giant smoothie cube the next…

Spend time in the success board on here. There has been quite a few people who have lost 100+ lbs who have minimal loose skin. The idea of loose skin TERRIFIES me because my main goal for losing weight is vanity not healthy. People might not like it, but that's the truth. If I can't look good in a bikini then damn it give…

I struggle with this too. When I binge I do it bad, I mean like 4 days of food in one sitting. Mine is always some kind of negative emotion be it sad, mad, bored, destructive etc. :frown: I was told by the counselor seeing to Journal. She told me to buy a pocket sized notebook and pen, keep it with me at all times. And…

I bombed in September, I actually gained about 10lbs. :sad: And today I hit my starting weight from September 1st. I'm really going to have to bring it to hit my goal for December 1st.

Ugh I keep forgetting to check on this group! I wish you could set to be notified when people post in groups. :grumble: I'll get to updating!

Hi! I just found this when I was searching for the postcard challenge (I really liked that idea, who doesn't like getting something REAL in the mail?). Is that part of this group? And are you accepting new participants?

You look fantastic! Thanks for sharing this! :drinker: ...I haven't checked into this group in a while. (I've been on/off MFP for a while all together :indifferent: ) Hopefully if I keep checking in here I can get back in a groove and see results like Nona :bigsmile: Sunday - 0.5 mile (hiking...going uphill says I need to…

Thank you everyone for the kind words. How did you stop beating yourself up? I mean people tell me "just stop" .... but it sneaks up on me, I can be doing something unrelated and my brain just starts hating on myself for no reason.

I'd like to actually know what Carb Cycling is. But I'm in the same boat. This month I am not watching anything but calories, and then I'll see how I feel in October.

lol this is what I was thinking.

Thanks for the ideas so far keep them coming :D. I forgot to add that I do tuna and canned chicken to sometimes. I guess I could do regular chickenc hamburger etc...but I don't know if they will eat that cold...

MFP has been pretty close to my HRM for most exercise (walking, jogging, hiking etc). The only time I noticed it was really off was for swimming, or if the exercise wasn't exactly right. (Like JM videos and circuit training etc)

Sorry posting late! Starting weight for Sept - 259lbs

I like the idea of weighing in Sept 1st. :)

Yum and now I have another blogger to follow! :)

Hi, I'm Christina (but I've gotten used to people just putting NV lol). I'm 26, married with one child. My biggest issue is food and motivation. I tend to eat for every reason other than being hungry (happy, sad, depressed, stressed etc)...and I have a quick start motivation and then burn out...then start...then burn out.…

Get your money up front, if they don't want to pay you upfront, then turn down the job. Not EVERYONE who posts there is sketchy, but for smaller jobs like babysitting and housecleaning...the people who are posting on craigslist want someone cheap, and they are likely to throw a fit about everything (and then not pay...I…

Ya, I have a huge problem swallowing pills. I can do it, but if I had to do it everyday I'd probably stop taking them. Thanks for the tips on the Carison's lemon flavor, I think I'm going to look for that!

Its a little far-fetched but I would really like to be close to 230lbs by September 28th for a 2 day rock concert! That way I can look awwwwesome! (I'd look more awesome at 160...but gotta keep it a little real)

Glad to see all the replies so far! So I have a question for you all... :glasses: What food do you think helps you make it through the day?

Great job so far!

Grinds my Gears: Watching a spouse be purposely unsupportive of their partners weight loss journey (as in stuffing their face in front of them, and whining that they need to eat like they used to because they are "no fun"). Makes me want to choke someone. Made my Day: I managed to do 2 toning classes BACK to BACK...zumba…

You can add me to. I totally do what you do, and did that for a good 7 months (and gained BACK 40lbs I had lost last year :grumble: ) This is just my $0.02, but if your anything like me you probably have quite a bit of mental "issues" going on in your head. Self hate talk, telling yourself constantly that you CANT do this,…

I pretty much agree with everything everyone has said here. Keep a lot of good foods in the house that they (and you) can snack on. Fruits, Veggies, Yogurt etc. You can even cook chicken and cut it into bite sized chunks, they can heat those up in the microwave and eat them like chicken nuggets, but its real chicken…

Yes! You are awesome!

I noticed eating healthy isn't as expensive as it seems if you eat boring food. LOL I always spend way more than I feel like I should on groceries for 3 but that's because I don't want to get bored and then eat a tray of oreos! I used to be way more creative with my meals but due to funds I had to slow it down, so now I…

You always rock your workouts!
