I’m a high school math teacher and struggle with finding time to exercise during the week. Add to that the routine of having a new baby and making time for her as well. Any support and/or suggestions and greatly appreciated.

Count me in too! I am down 10, but still would like to lose 100. Feel free to add me.

I have similar goals. Highest: 252 Current: 245 Goal of 180 and then re-evaluate once I get there. Sending you a friend request. Anyone can feel free to add me, I'm always looking for more motivational friends. :)

I am definitely interested in the support group! I'm 30 years old, 5'4, and currently weighing in at 247 lbs. I the past I have used MFP for about a month and do well, but then life happens and I go back to my old ways. My mom has been having health problems and it is eye opening to me that I need to make some major…

Congratulations on the upcoming wedding! I am getting married next April and working toward losing weight as well. I am currently 246 and started at 252 about a month and a half ago. I am not sure exactly what my goal is, but I am hoping to at least be under 200. Anyone can feel free to add me.

I would love to be part of this 100 day challenge, I feel it will be just the motivation I need to jeep me on track. I can do the Facebook group as well.

Hey all, I'm Jess! I am back at this and am going to be consistent this time. Overall I have 80 - 100 pounds to lose, right now I just feel sluggish and I know that needs to change. I wish all of you luck in your own journey! Feel free to add me if you are looking to get and give support :)

Hey! I would love to join this group, and could definitely use all the support I can get on this journey. Age 27 CW 231 GW 150

I am in the same boat as both of you. I started my weight loss journey again back in October and did great for a month, but then Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays came and I took a month long break. I am very frustrated with myself for doing that, but I only have myself to blame. Please feel free to add me as a friend, I…

You can all feel free to add me, I am re-starting as of today as well. Good luck to you all!

Hey All! I am 26 and currently weigh 225, my highest weight ever was 230. I started using MFP last spring and saw results with it, however life events happened and I stopped making it a priority. I know this sounds cliche, but it really is my resolution for the year to get healthy and lose weight. Feel free to add me as I…

Feel free to add me, I can always use the motivation, and will dish it out as much as possible as well :)

Feel fee to add me, I am always looking for additional supportive friends. I tend to do well for awhile, then get frustrated, so hopefully with some support this time I will stick to it :)

My go to meal so far this year has been tuna sandwiches on a thinbun with a small Caesar salad. Otherwise if I have some leftover chicken or fish from the night before I will toss that in my bag along with some frozen veggies or something. Or if im really in a pinch i have a couple lean cuisines for just that reason. I try…

I have never been a runner either, but I started doing couch to 5k, and it's a great program to ease your body into running with a combo of walking/running intervals.

Bump for all the great ideas :)

Feel free to add me, I am always looking for more friends to help support and receive help from. :) I am 26, and at a current weight of 228, and trying to loose 70 to 80 pounds.

I want a twin too :) Age: 26 Height: 5'4" SW: 230 CW: 228 GW: 140 - 150, depends how I look and feel at that point.

Bump :) Can't wait to try some of these amazing recipes.

I'm 5'4 and currently weigh 226. I am trying to get down to 140 to 150. Feel free to add me as a friend if you are interested.

I dislocated my kneecap frequently in high school, and finally had surgery my senior year. The reason mine was dislocating was because my inner quad muscle was much weaker than my outer quad muscle. The doctor sent me to physical therapy to build up my quad muscles in general. Building up that muscle helped me quite a bit,…

Thanks to both of you for your input on it being a slow process. Do you have any suggestions for how many calories I should be consuming compared to what my BMR is? I'm not sure if I am consuming too many, too few, or if it's about right.

So you eat all of your BMR calories.. Should I be eating the 1760 then?

I weigh myself when I go to the gym every other day, which might be too often and making me impatient...

I have this exact same problem because of marching band as well as being slightly flat footed. I bought some running shoes that are supposed to help with the flat footed-ness. I am also trying to concentrate to land on the right place of my foot but it is very hard to do. Any suggestions on this would be greatly…

I haven't been going by MFP's calories burned, but I have been going by what the machine at the gym is telling me. I was just wondering if anyone knows how accurate those are compared to MFP or a HRM. Thanks!

Mine is open as well, and I am looking for a few people who can give me constructive criticism on my diary. Thanks in advance!
