I am in! I hope this helps me!

Thats a good idea. I drive 1 hour every day. I can chug in the car!!

We've been talking about getting cycling computers (my hubbie and I). I think I will start with a HRM - THAT I can afford!

Thank you. That really makes me feel better. I got a full physical about 2 months ago. I stopped all medications I was on - antidepressant and birth control. So, I think I am primed to lose weight if I can just do it.

Thank you for the encouragement!

They're just so easy!! LOL

I do need to drink more water! Thats for sure. I hate drinking water though. Like I just get busy and work and forget. Any advice for That?

Thanks for the info about the scale, malibu927 and I_Will_End_You

Well I played softball like a maniac from birth to 21. Now I am a cyclist. Doing about 80 miles tops right now, been doing it about 6 months. I also hike often.

I will be patient and keep trying... get a food scale and a heart rate monitor. Should I take anything like that Garcinia or Green Coffee Bean or ask my doctor for something?

OK, so you guys are saying to get a food scale and a heart rate monitor.... good ideas. How do you use a food scale? like if I was going to measure out my cottage cheese and pinapple, how to I use the food scale for that?

To: Adnaram: 1. I am feeling better and sleeping like a log. 2. my clothes don't really feel any different. My stomach is slightly flatter, but I think its just bloat gone from eating well. 3. I could bump up my water intake a lot. 4. I use the gym at a senior center community gym. No one really there to help me. Just you…

Sounds like your husband needs to get stronger LOL. JK though. Well depending on what you lost you could have increased in Lean body mass and lost a little in fat that shows no scale change. Usually the answer to this question is underestimate foods log and overestimate exercise calories. Being 23 is a little bit different…

Cups and spoons. Ok, so I should lower my calorie goal perhaps so that when I underestimate my eating, I will be on track? And I could probably stop eating back my exercise calories, but I think I will starve to death combining these two ideas. =(

Usually what I do is put in all my info on the machine and do not cheat at all. I get that calorie amount. Then I look on the web as well for calorie burned and kinda pick a number in the middle.

Sometimes we all need a good rant! Way to identify the issues you're having and resolve to do better. You can do it!!!

I'm really into fashion lol so here's my advice. It is, after all, March, so if you are going out, you can get away with springy clothes. I vote until May or June depending on your climate, wear it with opaque black tights! It will be sooo slimming on your legs, and it will look very cute and sexy. I also think that…

Well, I have never run, nor plan to run a marathon or half marathon, so first off that is AMAZING!! I would die, dude!! Be proud of yourself just for running 13 miles. That is awesome! I have a story to tell you that might inspire you or something. Last year around this time, I was running about 5 or 6 miles a day, and…

I'm new to this group :) I have been on MFP for 1 week, and I like it so far. I am training for a 5k in May. I only have 1200 net calories per day, and I do eat my exercise calories. I'm 5'5'', and I want to lose 35 pounds. I currently weigh 166. I have a few questions for you experienced weight losers :) What is a…

Congrats! Way to go girl! :)

What a cute pic of you with your daughter! Great job! And good job remembering to factor in the beer. I sometimes forget to plan ahead for my nights out. You look great! keep up the awesomeness and thank you for the inspiration!

I'm 21, and just started today. I hope this works for me.
