  • Not sure if the attachment worked but wanted to give some motivation to those that do not feel they are accomplishing much. The caption is "Still mad you only lost one pound"? then a hand holding one pound of fat. It's really eye opening when you think about it. One pound doesn't seem like much but that's just not true.…
  • For those that don't like water, here are a couple of things that might make it more appealing. I put fresh lemons in my water and squeeze the juice in first. Sometimes I add cucumber and fresh mint as well. It just gives the water more flavor without adding unnecessary calories and it tastes very good. You might try this…
  • In 6 weeks, I have lost 24 pounds. This is major for me as I am sticking with it this time. Usually after about 4 weeks on a weight loss program I tend to go back to my old habits. But I vowed this time would be different and I will do this. We all can we just need to set our minds that we will succeed. Great job…

Trying not to compare myself to people on MFP or in real life but it's hard. I've never stuck to something this long. I'm proud of that…

  • Saiosyn - I have really been watching my portion sizes. Portion control is so important. I also only drink water. I like water so this was not really a big step for me. No more sweet tea or soft drinks. I put fresh lemon juice in my water too. I stopped eating most sweets also. I occasionally will have a small piece of…
  • In four weeks I have lost 20 pounds. Down from 256 to 236. Our next Biggest Loser weigh-in at work is this Friday 2/24/17 and I am expecting another 1-2 pound loss this week.
  • I went to Oklahoma to the Casino with my sisters this past week-end and I did not have anything to drink except for water. I ate healthy and my portions were under control. I was able to fit into a pair of jeans I have not been able to wear in a long time. Made me feel good.
  • One thing I do that has helped me with portion control when eating out is to ask for a to go box when they bring my meal. I place half of everything in the box and I am not tempted to overeat. Portions in restaurants are so out of control so doing this one simple step saves lots of calories and I take the left overs for…
  • My name is Rhonda and I have been overweight most of my adult life. As most, my weight has been like a roller coaster ride with the ups and downs. I am 57 years old and have made a decision that I am so tired of being so tired all of the time and need to lose this weight so I feel better and can be more active with my…
  • When you get off track, just get right back on as soon as you can.
  • Yes it does. "If you care enough for the Result, you will almost always attain it".
  • Inspiration for today: It takes 4 weeks for you to notice your body changing, it takes 8 weeks for your friends and family to notice, and 12 weeks for the rest of the world.... KEEP GOING!
  • Hello nmcknny, Thank you for the inspiration. I just sent you a friend request.
  • I am new to this group. I recently started using MFP again and hope to have more success this time. I am 57 years old and still have about 50 pounds that I need to lose.
