Hi Jeebah, my name is Lisa. Welcome to MFP:flowerforyou:

Wishing you the best of luck!!!

i'm with ya on starting December 26th. Christmas does not come round every day!!:happy:

my walmart store has a great selection for about $10 each. yoga/pilates, taebo, dance, the biggest loser, leslie sansone walk at home, and 10 minute solutions ( these are great because they are broken down into 10 min segments in case you need a quickie).

welcome. you have made a great decision.

i'm in. this past week has been horrible. (even though i did lose 2 lbs, afraid to get on the scales again.) the first 2 days i was under my calories, every day since i have gone over. i cant find that happy medium. hopefully it is just due to the holidays. :grumble:

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!

i too let myself slide back over the summer. i would get off work at 330 and come straight home to exercise but then my son would want me to come out and play. so i did not get all the cardio i needed. and bar b qs were usually brats and hotdogs or we had lunch meat sandwichs cause it was too hot for anything. so i stopped…

thanks to everyone for the advice!!

taletreader. i stopped tracking my meals for most of the summer. found it difficult to work, exercise, be a mom, take care of the house, etc and make daily entries. so when i started cutting things to make time, keeping a food journal and making daily entries was the first to go. i recently decided that i need MFP and i am…

sorry to hear about your problem! i will keep my fingers crossed and pray that it is nothing serious!:flowerforyou:

COZZY--- thank you for the wonderful words of encouragement. the phrase' you did not gain it overnight, so you wont lose it over night' is one of my favorites!!!

DANOH----THank You

BABYBLUE----o i definately know that fear. but after reading some of the articles that are printed, my thoughts have changed on that.

BIONICDIVER----thank you. I love this sight as well. i have suggested to the people i work with. dont think any of them have signed up yet. that is there loss.

DEB---- right now i am reading Body for Life. i believe this helped me to get on the right track.

simply healthy, if you are working out at home, walmart has a great selection of workouts for around $10 each- the biggest loser videos, tae bo, walking with leslie sansome, 10 minute solutions ( different exercises broken down into 10 min segments, these are great if you only have 10 mins they have a warm up and cool down…

Willimh...LOL...we have somegreat responses. hope they help us. Thanks to everyone for the info.

i bought several different types of videos from walmart....walking with Leslie sansone, tae bo, biggest loser, the firm, 10 minute solution. these all run about $10.00 each.

Thanks for the info catcrazy. That makes me feel so much better. In winter time I have problem getting down 16 oz of water, let alone adding more. I have drank cappuchino and tea for many years, i recently discovered the flavored creamers so dropped the cappuchinos, which has reduced my calorie intake quite a bit in that…

Yes i do carefully measure my honey. and creamer. i like the flavored teas best as i can drink those strait with no additions.

Thanks, Daryls. This is a very good point i was not aware of. I have replaced coffee with creamer for the cappuchinos i used to drink and normally have 1-2 cups a day. Tea on the other hand is a favorite, especially the flavored green teas. But it is so hard to find my absolute favorite which is raspberry in the decaff. so…
