Hello and welcome!! I have been a member here since the end of April and I have DEFINITELY found that keeping track of what I eat has helped me a lot. I never counted calories until I found this site, and now I do it religiously, whether I have an off day or not. I hope you will find that it helps you as much as it has…

Everyone has already given you the same great ideas that I use as well. Depends on the vegetable, but I like to roast a lot of them in a little olive oil seasoned with a tiny bit of salt and pepper. I also like to add some garlic sometimes, and for the vegetables that I'm not a fan of, I cook them in a skillet with little…

I have done soup diets several times in the past. Sure, you'll lose weight but the weight comes right back as soon as you stop. Not the healthiest way to lose weight.

I only work 40 hours a week but when I had to start working overnights, this was a huge difference for me and very hard to adjust. My job is not as physically draining as it is mentally so at the end of the day I am exhusted....I feel like I worked a lot more hours than I actually did so I know the feeling of being tired.…

Don't let this news stop you. You've lost FIFTY POUNDS by YOURSELF. That's AMAZING and you should be SO PROUD! Keep up the great work that you've been doing and before you know it the next fifty pounds will be gone too. You dont need surgery. You need motivation and strength and self-control and it sounds like you have all…

My mother in law has me hooked on a "no-tuna tuna salad" that she makes. It's basically just a bunch of cut up veggies and she uses the ring noodles and adds salad dressing...just enough to make it moist. She puts in cut up carrots, radishes, celery, pickles, and cucumber. I dont normally like carrots and radishes but…

Everything clear here in MN too.

I love new friends. Feel free to add me :)

Giving this a shot....Hmmmm Hope it works. :))

Walk, push ups, sit ups/crunches, exercise videos on cable tv or on youtube, turn the radio or your ipod on and dance, take stairs, you can do anything that will keep you MOVING! :)

No matter how bad we might mess up, we have to tell ourselves that tomorrow is a new day! Off days are okay sometimes. Dont let yourself get discouraged so easily. :)

I'm looking for new friends too. PICK ME PICK ME!!!!! :)

MFP has SO MANY great tools available. And the motivation that can be found on this website is amazing. I joined in April and I love it. Besides of 2 weeks of being on vacation, I have counted every calorie and every minute of exercise, even if I have an off day. I've never counted calories until I joined MFP, but it has…

WOW is all I can say. You look like a brand new person. Good for you for working so hard to reach your goals! :) You look GREAT!

You can find a LOT of motivation by using MFP. I just joined in April and I can't get enough of it! I think the most important thing for you would be to find something you ENJOY doing that will count as exercise. Try something you haven't tried before because you might be surprised how much you will enjoy it. That makes it…

Howie, You look great! You should be VERY proud of yourself for your weight loss accomplishments thus far. You are going to inspire a lot of people because your this post. Thank you for that. :)

Why so serious?

7 pounds is a GREAT start. Keep it up. I LOVE the dress! It looked beautiful then and it looks beautiful now. :)

I found out about it from two of my co-workers. It's been nice to see their progress and its helped to keep me motivated. I've become completely addicted to using my food and exercise diaries. MFP has been a major eye-opener for me in just 3 short weeks and it's been a great tool for me and my weight loss journey! :)
