HEYYYY ME TOO! :) I was not serious until late October, then stopped early December & now I'm back to being serious! GO US! Foggetabout the past! :) New goals, starting now!! Welcome back.

Wooooowww!!! That is great!! You lost like 20 lbs a month!! What were you doing??? Congrats!! You look great.

Welcome Welcome!! :) I know you can do it. A little about me: I was 200 at 2 months older than 16 (Christmas) then joined a gym and WW online and got all the way down to 152 by 16 and 1/2 or 17. Got into a really serious relationship at 18 and gained weight, alllll the way to 235. Then realized that was a terrible…

You are very handsome! :) Congratulations!

WOW! 20 Pounds? That is incredible!! Maybe I'll lose 20 in February!!! =) What have you been doing?

Don't know if anyone else said this...but calories are calories is the way I look at it, but I'm not a nutritionist or anything like that.

Its doable! The 1st time I did it I had to stop about 15 minutes in, but the next time I did great. But I will say it is kinda hard on the joints! Let me know if you decide to do it. :)

If you have an android or apple phone, download the app! Track everything!!! Take one thing at a time. Something I have just learned myself: Don't focus on the # (weight) focus on being healthy (staying under cals) and exercising and the weight will come off. :) Add me as a friend if you like!!

I agree! Sometimes its really hard for me to do it thought. I do something similar with my bank account. When I spend too much money I avoid looking online. LOL Good JOB! :)

I COMPLETELY AGREE!!!! I really want that cup cake.

OOOps! I meant to post how I am going to take pictures of before and at 15 & 30 days to see if I can see any changes!! I hope I can!

You have lost a LOOOOOOT in your sides...! Looking good. Its weird because you are a little taller than me, but you have a MUCH smaller frame than me. Makes me wonder what I will look like. Just wanted to let you know that you looked great at 165 too! Congrats :)

N/m I remembered you said you are 5'3''

GIRL you ARE an inspiration!! Congratulations! :) I love how you explained your back and forth, up and down. You look AWESOME! Congrats on the 1/2 marathon. If you don't mind me asking, how tall are you?

Girlll..I am totally with you. I weigh 252!! And I am trying to get to 175 (first big goal!) Then from there I will try to lose more!!! Add me as a friend.

I don't really ever get in the mood. :( I don't ever feel like it. I don't feel good about how I look either. :( im not sure what's wrong.

I guess my question is at what point do you give up??? Can it get better? Does anyone have experience with this?

I'm glad to let you in if it will help!! :) If you want to add me as a friend feel free. Or you can also follow my blog! http://www.thisistarran.blogspot.com/

Hello!!! Welcome all of you! My name is Tarran. I've been doing MFP for 6 months now. I had added it to my phone then quit using it then discovered the web page and fell in love. I lost 14 lbs in a month and a half (Oct/Nov) then stopped and gained about 4 back...I am back at it now!!! :) I love mfp!! I was a huge weight…

To: Everyone! Thanks for replying. To: Heather: Thank you so much for your response. You hit me RIGHT in the place I needed to be hit. You reminded me of something I learned when I was 11. IT TAKES A MOMENT...ONE TINY MOMENT... to start a habit, and one tiny moment to stop one. If someone "cant" change its because they…

I'm being gipped! LOL I get 1570 and I'm 248! LOL

Hello! Well I've had this happen before and its so frustrating! I'm not sure how often you weigh yourself, but if it is everyday you might try spacing it out. Also, most likely your body has become accustomed to the amount of calories that you are eating/exercising. I would advise changing up your exercise routine & or…

Girl, Let me tell you!! When I wake up I always weigh like 4 lbs less than I did the night before. This morning I weighed 5 lbs less than I did last night. I'm sure you didn't gain weight, its just because you have eaten. :)

Mine too! I don't understand it and when I ask why he didn't do anything he will say "well I vacuumed!" or some activity that takes less than 20 minutes. Haha and I can't help myself (I am young) to point out that vacuuming only takes 4 minutes and he was home for 9 hours. LOL. But its good to know, we are all with the…

Okay so I should net at or over 1200 calories? Should that be my goal?? I was originally not eating any and I was losing weight. Then I started eating them ALL back...and so I stopped eating them at all because I stopped losing weight.

I'm really scared to eat more... For how long did you eat more? What started the plateau was i was eating all of my exercise calories because I thought I was supposed to. As soon as I started doing that I stopped losing weight, within two days i realized it and lost. That activia yogurt is that good for you? Geez, I had…

I know I can do it, but I am doing everything you mentioned annnnd my body is NOT doing it.

Awesome WEIGH IN!! :)

You are awwwwesome!! What are you doing to have such great success! I can't wait until I can get to ONEderland. I'll be a very happy camper. :)

Girl you and me...both. I usually count my weight from Monday morning, because for some reason Sunday monring nothing is right. WE WILL BEAT THIS 11!!!!!
