I’m getting cardio online workouts done in the morning and brisk walking a few miles in the afternoon. I don’t live in a neighborhood per se but my driveway is long enough and a loop that I use it as a track. The point would be to get movement/exercise in however you can. If you are strictly quarantined then online…

Same. 😕

I’m starting over too after a run with cancer and a string of excuses...... feel free to add me 😉.

Welcome from NE of Tulsa!

Hi Donna! I am recovering from kidney cancer surgery so I understand pain! I need to lose weight for my health since my weight caused complications in my surgery. I'm not motivated per se but I am more determined than ever!

40 yo Renal Cell Carcinoma survivor here. Looking to add friends to help with motivation. Feel free to add me!

Count me in! Coming back after a long medical break (cancer).

Anyone can add me. :)

I am jumping back on the wagon! My health requires it and I deserve it!! Would love to have all the supportive friends I can get and would love to encourage you along the way! We can do this ;)

I completely understand! I started at 309, my highest and yo-yo dieted to about 279. Then I got serious and lost to 201. Then I started getting unwanted attention from men which Made me extremely uncomfortable and here I sit at 259 desperately trying to find me again. I never put myself first but not because my husband and…

Yeah, that pregnancy weight is a booger! I had back to back pregnancy that really packed some weight on :-/. I had twins and when they were 10 months old got pregnancy again. I lost most of it, injured myself, regained most of it...and now I am back to losing it again! Darn roller coaster....

I used the walking at home DVDs because I have 3 young children with me during any exercise. I lost 60+ pounds. When I started incorporating high impact stuff and strength training I injured myself. I went through physical therapy but lost my mojo and gained 50 pounds back :-(. I am now back to using my walking DVDs and…

Log it under food intake as -300 calories per day for a child fully on breast milk....

That is quite an amazing transformation! Hopefully you can see it in the photos yourself. I can see that you do have defined muscle tone and look healthy! Thank you for sharing the pics. ~Sandi

You can do it! Wishing you the best on your journey!!!!!

Well, I was losing and exercising pretty consistently until about 6 weeks ago when I was put on medical restriction. Unable to exercise and doing physical therapy, I still watched my calories. However, without exercise, I have only lost 1/2 pound in the last 30 days. I definitely lose better and make better food choices…

Awesome...Thanks!!

Welcome!! You listed some great reasons to get in control of your health! Congrats on your baby girl and I wish you the best on your journey! Feel free to add me as a friend if you would like the support..... ~Sandi

Agreed! That is why MFP has been so instrumental in my success thus far! Feel free to add me...I am all about the support!! ~Sandi

Sorry for the length of this post in advance but I copied it from 'my home'. This is what I posted on my main page this morning... So, I read something the other day that was profound. I didn't know it was going to be a profound statement when I read it, but as a couple of days passed it just 'clicked' that you know...that…

WW never really worked for me either.... MFP is a much better tool because you get to see the whole picture of your food choices! Welcome and know that you can do this!! ~Sandi

That's amazing!! Job well done!!

Please tell your husband Thank you for his service..and you as the wife who also serves...Thank you!!!

While I admittedly know nothing about the challenges and joys of raising a special needs child, I am a mother of a teen and 3 toddlers. So, I can understand the exhaustion.... Stress eating is all about replacing. I am also a stress eater and have recently started chewing gum when I feel the urge to stress eat. Really…

Claremore here....

Not near you...not military....In Oklahoma ....but just wanted to say Thank you so much for your service to our country!!!

Congrats!! That is awesome!!!

Oh yes...PCOS sucks! but, there are ways to eat against the syndrome... Sent you a friend request.... Btw, giving in to the carb crave only strengthens the carb crave....once you refuse to indulge, after a week or two your cravings start to reduce and you get your power back. You can do this!!!!

That sounds like some pretty good motivation! Never actually thought to try something like that, but you know...just picturing something that relates personal lit a fire in me!! Awesome!!! I LOVE MP!!!

That is one amazing transformation!!! I would say you are achieved....and just think of what your son gained!!!!
