Only if you hungry! Or update your settings changing the lifestyle from sedintary to the next level and see if mfp ups your cals.

Well said! I agree that the exercise aspect shouldn't be a priority at this point. My Doctor told me all he wanted me to do was walk. So why don't you just start by walking around your house (inside). If you like to watch tv, then every commericial get up and walk down the hallway and back. As you lose weight you'll find…

I started back using the site seriously since early May, thank you!

My weight loss has been steady but slow. Then one day I was going over my profile again and reentered my info and at 1200 cal, my average exercise goals and the fact that I have a sedintary job it told me I would lose on averge of .6 pounds per week. That certainly explained the slow weeks! So because I won't be changing…

Yes, yes, yes! I've lost 50 pounds by staying within my calorie limits and walking every day! I walk fast enough to get a good sweat but I'm not jogging it's definetly a walk :)

Stop weighing yourself daily! So many things can make your weight move up and down and it can really be a disappointment when you know you are following plan to see the scale go up a pound. Pick a weigh in day and stick to it! Once a week!! Try swapping out some of the sweet carbs for protein. This will help with weight…

Try some non fat dairy like yogurt to up your calories and not add to the fat line! Some healthy cereal with nonfat milk will also get you some more calories without the fat.

Tomorrow is a new day! Work on choosing more healthy proteins so you are reaching that goal. Don't let the scale be the judge all. Have you taken measurements? Nothing is more satisifying than loosing an inch even when the scale hasn't budged!! Don't give up, keep trying and see what works for you!

It's so hard not to get discouraged, but stick to it and you will see results! I have personally found that eating protein rich foods that are lower in fat has helped my weight loss efforts. One tip to share with you that may help due to your inability to cook a lot of your meals is to replace the 300 calories sweets with…

Hello from New York! I just start to and and welcome the online friendship. Keep up the good work.

When you get to the end of making your ticker, it gives you the option to copy and paste a long list of web addresses (it gives you two choices and the first one is for the message board) you need to copy and paste it into the area on your profile(I think) Hope this helped. If I didn't tell them the correct spot to copy…

Aldi's has a fit and active brand that has a lot of healthy choices in the snack section. You can find popcorn, flavored mini rice cakes, yogurt, but my favorite is the fit and active fudge bar found in the freezer section. It only has 100 calories and 5 grams of fiber and really satisfies if you love chocolate like me!

Hi Everyone, My name is Maria and I just found this website a few days ago. I love it. I belong to a TOPS (Take of Pounds Sensibly) group in my home town. It gives me a weekly weigh-in and a support group, but I needed something more to help me at home. I am very excited, I think this is it! I lost over 80 pounds in 2006…
