Ok have a fitbit also. At first I was going crazy with it. So what I do now is sync the fitbit with mfp and I type the number into mfp under excercise. After a while you will almost know about what you burned. For instance i take spin class 3 times a week. MFP gave me a real lot of calories before I got the fitbit. So if…

Ok I had two C sections and i still have a little pouch but you can look fairly normal if you put in the effort. I am now 60 and I had my first c section at 31 and second one at 33. I worked my butt off to get back down to 125 after my first child. It took 8 months. And now almost 30 years later i am back to 130. During…

Wow listening to some of your goals are pretty amazing. I am 5' 1" and I did hit my goal of 135 in Oct this year. But I wanted 130 which I bottom but hard to stay there. My doc is a peanut so I don't know what she would say to me. She is like 4' 11" and dislike 95 soaking wet.

I can relate to all of you. I am currently going through the same thing. We just experienced hurricane Sandy and I have been out of work for a week. Thank God we had no structural damage but there are no gas stations with i gas so we have to walk everywhere. I have been very stressed out and very anxious. I have been…

I have been on them 12 years and it doesn't matter to me. Feel great.

I love mine but everyone has their opinion. I didn't know they are coming out with a new one. You have. to decide yourself. I use the. Fitbit and mfp together. If calories seem way over I take the lower one of the two. I have a very active lifestyle so I have a good idea of what calories I burn. So for me I don't eat over…

Personally I didn't care for it. If you like S&M which I do not. It has nothing to do with my age. I just don't find people who like to get the crap beat out of them and having sex. Fifty thousand times a day because some body says I have to and be restrained also. I would wig and the freak out. Give me regular dirty…

Get yourself a food scale I got a great one in walmart for like 22.00. It is great it is digital and very helpful.

Well gymnastics because i have always loved it. It is strength and grace. If it was winter olympics i would have said ice skating. I was very good when I was a kid, I had a private lessons and i was once very graceful. Don't know what happened to that LOL. Then I thought I was a smart *kitten* 16 year old and thought I was…

Hey your not the only short one. I am shorter and a lot older. But to me when it comes to weight age doesn't matter. I am 5'1" and now I weigh 131. I was 145. When I was your age I was 120 but after two c-sections and getting older that didn't last long. Right now my goal is 130. So I have lost 13.2 on this site. Very…

I would have said pizza and beer. But waiting on test results and I may not be able to have either on a gluten free diet. I hear they have gluten free beer but is probably expensive. I know they have gluten free pizza crust. But I cant have dairy.

Hi sarbwah: I have just started the whole foods thing myself. for the past few weeks. I don't know a lot about it because i was almost forced into due to intestinal issues. But I do feel better and I am currently waiting for results on possible celiacs disease. I want to learn more about it and get myself a gluten free…

I agree with whoever said salads ordered in restaurant. Also the dressings especially the creamy ones. And a lot of processed foods have so much sodium.

1. Almonds 2. Protein shake 3. Protein. Food 4. Fruit 5. Yogurt

That doesn't sound cool with me. The reason I said that is my husband had a female friend, who was supposedly just a friend and he had asked me if he could help her move because she is has no husband and he feels sorry for her. And a bunch more and dumbass me like him go thinking he was doing a nice thing and eventually he…

Love these quotes

I have been on WW on and off since I was 19 that was a long time ago. I did very well till they changed to fruits are free. And it is a pshyological thing with WW. Those point numbers seemed too low. With my fitness pal when I see the number of calories even though they aren't that high just the site of 1500 calories…

Congrats you look amazing

We ate all we wanted on the cruise and we went on two of them. But I always had tons of salad and I drank light beers. But I am extremely active I used the gym facilities even on vacation. We never took elevators and we walked all the flights of stairs to wherever we went. I lost three pounds on first cruise and stayed the…

Hi I log mine as I eat it. If I plan on eating a few meals that I know about I type them in and adjust the rest of my days food so I don't go over. If I have a party I cant guess I just keep my fingers crossed that day and put in a bunch of calories in quick calories. Then drink tons of water.

Hi I think there are a few reasons for the obesity issue. First off the children nowadays hardly take gym classes in school. The reason I say this I work in the high school in my district and I see what the kids do every day or do not do. First off they go out to the school track and they are not dressed in gym clothes so…

You should only weigh yourself once or twice a week. I myself weigh in once a week. Every Sunday. everyone on here has their own schedule. It is working good for me and it keeps me on my toes for the weekend. I have lost 11 lbs so far. I didn't have much to lose. I would like to do like 4 more. You have to really want it.…

Hi it hasn't happened to me but it has happened to me for the past few years. I did not know I was supposed to eat most of the excercise calories back. I thought if you ate you would still gain. Go figure. Well I have been on here since March and have lost the 10 pounds I wanted to. I still would like to lose more. So try…

I have the same fear of closed in spaces as well. It is awful. Once I had to get an MRI of my head and halfway through I told them to let me out. And they tried to talk me through and I said turn this machine off I am so done.

Welcome it is a pleasure to meet you. It is a good app. All people on here are nice and pretty supportive. Good luck to you and you will do great. I have lost 8 pounds so far. Been on 85 days in a row. You can friend me if you like. ANNE

I agree a lot of people don't do it and it is annoying. But it is true you don't see people wiping weights.

Writeher I just replied to your post in the wrong place now it is below this post.

Good for you. Therapy is good as a matter of fact I just came from there today. But sometimes I feel like why Does the crap have to happen to me? I went through a lot of meds before finding effexor. I find exercising is a big help. Nice talking to you.
