Hi! I just had the gastric sleeve surgery in September. At this point I have lost more weight prior to the surgery than after but hoping if I stay on track I will begin to see some results.

https://www.fitbit.com/user/2VFL3M Twin cities area. Minnesota. New to fitbit, not new to MFP, but have been "off the wagon" longer than I would care to admit. Looking forward to get back into the groove and win this battle! Any support and encouragement welcome!

We did meet up and it was loads of fun. Met some great people. I was going to try and plan the next hike, but the cold beat me. At this point thinking of sending something out in the spring unless anyone would like to do some monthly mall walking at MOA or somewhere.

We all have bad days, just don't let every day be a bad one. Find ways to get in physical activity wherever you can. Be good with your logging if you can't get in as much exercise as desired, but don't rely solely on that, activity is equally important. You may not feel motivated, but try breaking up your activity. Go for…

Lakeville here, at least for the next year. I work in Bloomington.

Definitely trying to get back into being more active. Sounds like fun, I don't think I have ever been to Lebanon hills. Will be there if my sister's birthday plans don't interfere.

I just moved back to MN otherwise I totally would have been up for it!

Thank you for a truly inspiring story! I too hope to find myself there, though I got a little off track so suspect it will take more than a year. Here is to earning the keys to Onderland.

I love the 30 Day Shred. Haven't completed it, but have still gotten great results. The first 5-7 days are rough ( not the workout, but moving afterwards) but keep at it and it does get better. Especially great if you are looking to get some muscle tone. Oh yeah and you asked hat was in it, it is a circuitbtraining sort of…

Welcome all! Not so new, but definitely in need of some motivation lately. Hoping to regroup and continue on as well as when I first started in March. Feel free to add me. Either wait good luck to you all on this journey, being here is a step in the right direction.

Feel free to add me! You are definitely in the right place, MFP is a fantastic tool!!

Yep, I went from a D to a C which is fine as I now fit into most of the bras that I had packed away because they got too small. Hopefully won't go smaller than that, but anything can happen I guess...now if only the belly were as easy to get rid of.

I'm on day 6. It is getting better and I can finally get around without my body screaming so that's a plus...feeling frustrated though as I am gaining it looks like...trying to convince myself it is muscle weight, but still feeling really discouraged. Will be doing measurements next weigh in, hopefully that will help.

Fantastic results...thanks for sharing, I was starting to feel a little discouraged with my recent muscle (I think) gain. Thanks for giving me a positive way to think about it. I apreciate it!

I agree about building the habbits...I find the more I eat healthier, the more I want those healthy foods. That being said...I also do not deny myself...if I have those cravings, I will give in, but I will either make sure I have someone to share them with me, or I only eat a small portion and save or toss the rest. But I…

Will definitely be giving these a try, my triceps are in desperate need of some help!

My only truly me time is when I am at the gym since no one else in the house ever wants to join me, at home working on sewing or embroidery while watching a movie or listening to music.

I'm averaging 10 lbs. A month, so 3 months.

My new obsession, papa murphy's delite pizza with spinach and mushroom.

That is fantastic news! I can't wait to get there! You should be very proud of yourself!

Feel free to add me...the battle is not lost until you give up!

Fantastic job! Love the pants leg pic! I hope to have one of those some day!

You can never have too many fitness pals! Feel free to add me.

Feel free to add me if you like...wouldn't say I am excessive with posting, but I do go beyond just logging my food and exercise.

I for one have found MFP to be a fantastic tool! You can definitely do it! We're here or support!

Welcome! MFP is a great tool...I'm sure you'll find plenty of support. Feel free to add me.
