I did want to say thank you for posting this. I am afraid to show anything less than good results. I am not happy you are in this boat too, and I sincerely hope we both snap back to healthy ways!

I am having a very hard time... I keep going over, and over and over..... I really didn't want "the holidays" to be an excuse. Now I am in some overeating rut. I keep thinking about all the good food I should eat, then order taco bell washed down with pepsi. I'm not sure what I did to stop the roll I was on, or how to get…

Thank you all! I think I will get one! :) to the OP, sorry for the hijack :)

Can I slightly hijack and ask.... I would love to get one of the Polar FT4s too.... I have a 7" wrist though, for those that own one, would you mind measuring the watch band?:flowerforyou: I always have issues with watches or bracelets.

What a cool NSV! Living life instead of watching it :), I need to make a list of fun things to do!

Oh my goodness I use an iPad! I have got to look into that, thank you! I lovedeadlift - I am thinking you are right, it is my form causing issues.

I will contact my doctor. It's funny you mention the triceps one because that is the one where I feel like I have the least control over what I am doing...

I found this article http://www.livestrong.com/article/380004-sore-elbow-from-lifting-weights/ I am thinking I may take a break until the pain is gone then try again... I will have to work on my form maybe. Thank you for your help!

I guess that would have helped sorry... I do not know the technical names so bear with me... I hope I make sense... Bicep curl Triceps (by bending slightly and having my arms stretch out straight then bend back, I think kickbacks?) Arms straight at sides then going up to shoulder level (lateral raise) Arms straight at…

Welcome!! :flowerforyou: MFP is such a great tool!

Great job!!

You guys are all doing great! I guess you can stay :wink: haha!

It's awesome you have overcome your injuries!! Yay for walking! Yay for being a fighter and most of all YAY for not giving up! :)

I will just say, I agree too! This site is changing my life!! Good luck on your journey :)

I bought chocolate protien bars, and sometimes have one or two hershey kisses. I found this site with "healthy" desserts, so far I have made two with great success! http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/

I made my goal weight a little higher than the recommended amount because really I was not ready to face the full amount I needed to lose. So once I hit my "goal" on here, I will still have about 30 pounds that I'd need to lose. I am not really sure that what I did makes complete sense, but that'swhat I did :tongue: I…

Breakfast is a problem for me too. I tend to just grab a fruit and sometimes a boiled egg. When I have time I like 2egg whites on a toasted bagel, unfortunately I still love american cheese ;)! Sometimes I forget and just crack the whole egg in the pan, just as good just more fat and calories with the yoke. I have read…

Thanks for your replies! I am going to lose the weight no question there and I agree it is worth it even if I get a huge amount of sagging skin. I shouldn't worry about it. Mamabosha what you said about trading one insecurity for another really struck a cord with me, thank you for giving something to think about! Savage…

I get a little annoyed, I will admit it! I would love to be 180 right now. I keep telling myself that their struggle is just as hard. I have heard the last little bit of weight can be stubborn though. I try to be positive and upbeat with a pinch of unicorns and rainbows :P but yeah posts that say "I need to lose 20 pounds…

Hi! I am new here, 15 days in! I hope it is ok I join this group. I set my goal weight 20 pounds higher so I didn't ave to be faced with the big 200 number to lose :frown: But, it is 200 I have to lose! BW:324 CW:317.8 GW:150.... Really 130 but we will see.
