I hear you...I just turned 51 this month and have slowly put weight on every year for the last 3 years. This is week 2 for me on my weight loss journey and return back to a healthy active life. I’m feeling motivated and know that this is just the beginning of the new and improved me! Let’s encourage each other along the…

I’m from Canada but spent 6 months in Lake Forest/Laguna Beach at the end of 2016. I would go back in a heart beat. Loved loved, loved California!

Breakfast: Steel cut oats w/tsp brown sugar and 1%milk and coffee Lunch: Turkey patty and Kale salad Dinner: Turkey meatloaf, steamed cauliflower and steamed Brussel sprouts with a tsp of Parmesan cheese Snack: 2 peanut butter energy bites after walking

Turning 51 today, this is my second week on MFP. Kids are grown and now it’s time for ME. Time to start making healthier food choices and being active. I have committed to walking 10K steps per day and I am here to loose weight and motivate others.

Hello from Canada, I am always looking for new friends for motivation and support. Feel free to add me!

Add me, I am 5'4 and started out at 190lbs now at 173lbs and feeling much better.

Amazing! Keep up the great work.

Feel free to add me, I have 16 lbs more to loose

Thanks for the advice writergirl

Thanks ladies, I will give these both a try!

You want brutal honesty.....Stop being so selfish and think about your children. If you don't want to get healthy and live a long happy life for yourself than at least do it for your kids. They deserve a Mother! Get rid of the junk food in your house and start making healthier choices NOW, before its too late. Best of Luck!

Add me too! Most of my friends haven't logged in for months

That's fantastic gagueen127, I am in a weight loss challenge at work. Every Monday we all weigh in and then I send out the % of weight loss so far for each person along with some sort of little fact, recipe etc... It's surprising how many people still don't know about MFP, I love it! Keep up the great work!

Thanks for posting this Jennifer076, I am in a weight loss challenge at work right now and was doing great dropping 3 lbs every week. However the last 3 weeks I have plateaued and with only 2 weeks left and about 8 lbs to go I need to change something. I'm going to do some research and look into this. Best of Luck on your…

I was using the Green Coffee Bean for about a month, I think it helped. I am now using a different product, GNC Women's Ultra Mega® Energy and Metabolism. It's too early to comment really, but I do find I have more energy than I did before.

Thanks everyone for your input I really appreciate your advice and support.

You can add me too! I am on here every day!

Yuck! No diet pop for me, I can't stand the taste of the artificial sweetener. Water is my fav.

Welcome to MFP! Make sure you log every single thing you put in your mouth, you will be amazed how quickly those calories add up. Best of Luck!

Your diary looks good, 2 things...... Don't foget to log your water intake and also if I can make one recommendation instead of partially skim milk you might want to try almond milk or soy milk. They have alot less calories. Best of Luck!

Well MFP is definitely a great place to start if you want to lose weight. I would recommend you start my logging EVERYTHING you eat each day. You will quickly see how fast those calories add up. Make sure you drink plenty of water, for me this is the most difficult but the key to losing weight. As far as exercising if you…
