That's awesome! Great victory....thanks for sharing!

You look great and so much younger! Congratulations and thanks for sharing....very inspiring!

I go over on protein every day - if you are exercising, your body needs it for recovery. I think MFP estimates it low so I don't worry. On the calories, just know that MFP already deducts for the deficit you need to loose weight, so if you told it you want to loose a pound a week, it already subtracted 500 calories a day.…

I am glad to hear that cardio or a different exercise is ok as a rest day when you are working towards weight loss as your goal. Thanks for asking the question I had all along!

I often wonder the same thing so looking forward to seeing more advice here. I made myself stay away from the gym today because I have an intense boot camp Sat/Sun but ended up walking with my neighbor for an hour at a brisk pace. Not sure if that counts but it was the closest thing I could get to a rest day. I guess my…

Friend request sent! Thanks for sharing your story. I am 38 and have been on MFP since March. It has really helped me to have motivational friends too!

I've noticed that as well - great work! I am enjoying the lower utility bills myself!

Awesome story - thanks for sharing! Very motivational!

Feel free to add me - I find the support helps me stay motivated and accountable!

Feel free to add me as I know support from MFP friends is really motivational! I was in Ireland in September/October 2009 and fell in love with the people, landscape and music. I am soooooo jealous you get to live there :-D

Welcome back to MFP. I started in March and have been having luck with it so I know you can too! Feel free to add me as I know the support I get from MFP friends is priceless. Here's to next summer at the beach....we got this!!!

HIIT for sure with burpees. For the question on the burpee: the burpee is a full body exercise used in strength training and as aerobic exercise. It is performed in four steps: Begin in a standing position. Drop into a squat position with your hands on the ground. (count 1) Extend your feet back in one quick motion to…

I second the lemons and mint leaves - I drink this everyday to get my water in

Best of luck - very inspiring! I too am sick and tired of being tired! MFP is the place to get it done!

You came to the right place! You can add me if you like. Best of luck!!!

Way to go! You should be so proud of yourself. Thanks for the inspiration!

Thanks for sharing! Such a great story!

Great job!!!

Great job! Thanks for the inspiration! Keep up the good work!

Greek yogurt is my newest along with green smoothies. Will have to try these frozen grapes.

Zig zagging calorie intact keeps the body guessing. Drink lots of water to counter the sodium and map out your meals for tomorrow. Keep up the great work!

I sent a request. Have had an under active thyroid for about a year. Doctor says my meds counteract that but it is still hard to loose weight even thought I lift 4-5 times a week. We can do this, will just take time and determination!

I'll send you a request. I am looking to add friends too. Looking forward to being successful at this!

I'm almost 5'3" and 180. Just joined a week ago and so far love it! It's very helpful to see what's going in my body and what gets used when I exercise kind of like a bank account! The rest just gets stored. Feel free to add me. We can do this!

Recently joined to watch my calorie intake.

Just started a boot camp that uses HIIT. It works!
