Try using cabbage leaves in place of the lasagna noodles

Stephanie, I have a story similar to yours and would love new friends. Dieting only works for me for short periods of time and I always gain the weight back plus some. The older I get, the tougher it has been. I am fairly new to the Keto WOE but have been trying to stick to it for the past 40 days. Picked a tough time of…

Please feel free to add me as well. I am not new to this yo-yo dieting journey but I am still struggling. I am happy to provide any support I can!

Always need motivation and new MFP friends! Those quotes are good thoughts to keep. Thank you for sharing!

You have come to a good place to start. There are so many awesome people here offering advice, motivation, understanding an most of us struggle with the same issues. Feel free to friend me if you like.

Wow! That is awesome!! You are well on your way :-) Any tips for us?

Happy to help - friend me if you like :-) Walleyebob - how are you liking the C25K? I downloaded the app on my phone but haven't started using it yet. Running isn't my thing but I'm gonna try!

Happy to try to help you along your journey! I always have a smile :-) And I have a long way to go as well - you are right one step at a time. Please feel free to friend me - we are all in this together!

That is awesome!! You look great!!

BUSTED!!

I have total social anxiety when going to the gym and I am having trouble getting past it. I have been making myself go but in situations like tonight when the gym was packed - I didn't go. :-( Perhaps we can make a pact here to make ourselves go and workout without worry about those around us? Anyone?? I know it would…

Feel free to friend me. I will be as helpful and motivational as I can and can always use new friends on this journey!

That is amazing and you look great!! What a wonderful birthday gift you have given yourself!! Happy Birthday!

OMG!! I hate going to the gym alone too. I am trying to force myself to do it! It is not for chit-chat at all. I want to go there to work, just hate walking in alone. Someone earlier mentioned social anxiety - that is exaclty it - I hate doing almost anything alone which is difficult cause I am a widow with grown children…

I do it too. Know exactly what you mean, and I can fluctuate 5-6 pounds in a day. Very frustrating - I need to stop it too!

Request sent :-)

Well..........this started off funny! :-)

Nicely done! You beat me. Posted as I was typing :-) I think you have to take out DC United though - District has an 's'

Haha! I like the sentiment for singles as well. I am just hoping that the gym will be empty LOL

I am in Virginia so not too far. Feel free to add me as well :-)

I will take a beer as well

My name is Darlene. I am also looking for friends here and would be more than happy to try to help keep you motivated. We can all do this!! :-) Please feel free to add me as well.

Alcohol intake is the hardest thing for me. I love beer! Switching to wine helps a little but the quantity is a problem. Looking for solutions myself. Add me if you like - I wil share anything I find that works :-)

Any ideas on how to make that happen? I do the same thing! Been doing it for years! Except I loose it, gain it all back plus 5 or more :-( Depressing! Been back on track since Monday - woohoo.......3 whole days :-(

I would be happy to help. I am 51. Let me know how I can help :-)

Wow!!! You ladies sure do offer one another a lot of inspiration and support. Are you accepting any new members?

I hear ya about the wine! That is one of my downfalls as well. Feel free to add me if you need a friend to commisserate with :-)

Wow!!! Sounds like you may have just a few more than 10. I would definately be interested in this challenge. Takes the focus off the scale!! I do belong to a gym but have not been for months as I also have a knee injury. Damaged my knees playing soccer - now I can't do that anymore either - yikes!! Have just started…

Welcome back!! Sounds like you are making a great decision to come here for support and get back on track! Let us know how we can help! Darlene
