I think sometimes you have to just let people go and make their own mistakes. Just listen to their dreams and love them the way they are in the place they are right now and say "if you ever want to talk about weight loss" I'm here. Sometimes my family and friends aren't in an emotional place where they can hear what I want…

I'm not a doctor but you said you ate a school lunch and you had Chinese food. You are retaining water. It doesn't take much water to show a big gain on the scale. It will go away soon. Also, consider using the exercise calorie counter to record housework.

Awwwww, congratulations on the new baby. What I like about MFP is that it is easy to use and it is free. Nothing has worked for me for the last 15 years but this is working. I can stick to the plan and it is easy to use.

Welcome Jules - I love mfp. It works.

You should see your doctor. I get those symptoms when my allergies get bad and when I get ear infections.

You were beautiful before but now you look healthy and beautiful. Keep up the good work. You showed me that this program works.

This looks amazing.

Tums?

I fix it and cook a bunch of vegetables and throw it all together with some parmesan cheese; yummy. It make for a 300 calorie dinner.

Hi Gennene - I haven't been here long but I have lost 1 pound.

Everything looks yummy. I think you should just order whatever looks good to you BUT only eat half a portion. Ask for a box and take the rest home for later in the week. The other option I might consider is to order a couple of appetizers and ask that they be brought with the dinners.

I guess I'm more of the permission wiegher. And I don't want to be that way. I'm tempted to weigh myself constantly as if I need the validation to prove my work is paying off. Thing is...scales can't give that validation. Only I can provide that for myself.

Welcome - this is the easiest way to count calories that there is and the whole website is set up for motivation. The people are the best too. I hope you like it here.

I felt that way too! But there is something about this site that is so encouraging. It's easy to use and the people are all so nice and supportive. Welcome. Feel free to friend me.

I guess it would depend on if you were looking for aerobics or core strengthening. I personally love the New York City Ballet workout. It's great for core strength and flexibility - not aerobic - at least I haven't found the aerobic part.
