I went for a consultation at The Diet Center here in my hometown and was so astonished at the results. Body Fat %= 37% Water Weight= 95lbs BMI= results severly obese Should I go on. This seems like a real jolt to my self esteem. I have lost 8 lbs since joining in June. They actually wanted me to pay $600 to join and $59…

There is some resemblence there but you look like a different person. Way to go! That was motivation for me. Keep it up. :bigsmile:

I just found the board. I am here and I am a striving Christian. I love the Lord.

Ok, here's one for you. I got a phone call just Monday of this week from a 205 area code. I was hesitant to answer but since my son is in Afghanistan, I picked the call up. There was this guy on the other end who said his name is Michael and he got my number from my FB page. Ok I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer but…

I totally understand, but that does not make it right. I have been jealous for months now of a woman I do not know. I went to FB and saw that she married my ex husband. I was livid. That is the motivation for me joining this site. I will not say that either of us are jealous, we are merely disappointed. You for your…

I just got my copy and I could not get past the warm up. I am so out of shape. I am willing though. Lets stay connected and see where this takes us. Good luck. I will be on it at 5:00am tomorrow. Warm up and then 1st circuit.

I am right there with you. One week I lose weight and the next I gain. Last week was horrible for me. I actually gained 7 lbs. I crave sweets like air. I have tried everything. I am now looking into having some type of surgery performed to help me. My back hurts all the time and I keep a headache. I am currently taking…

Jumping jacks. They really get the old ticker excited!

You look absolutely amazing. Your post just gave me a little nudge to continue. Thanks.:flowerforyou:

Yesterday was aweful for me as for eating and being kind to my boyfriend. He is a slob most of the time and yesterday it got all over me. He ate from the time he got over until he left. Well, that made me mad and I ate too. I did not eat a lot of different food, but I made a meal of Ben and Jerry Greek Frozen yogurt which…

I dream of going shopping and not having to go to the PLUS sizes. Macy's has so many cute clothes but they are not in a size 18/20. Also, my sister has three closets of designer clothes that she says I can have whatever I want if I get to her size (14).

We both are doing something wrong. I am at the point of giving up. I try to eat the allotted amount of calories that MFP calculated but I am so used to eating 2000 calories until I feel hungry all of the time and I keep a headache. I have just recently started to get more physically active but I can only do five minutes of…

Definitely! Keep up the work. You are on a roll. :flowerforyou:

I wish I could be of some help to you. I am a sweet-aholic. I bought a coconut creme cake from the neighborhood bakery. In one day I had eaten the entire thing. I was planning to use it as motivation. That did not work. i got on the scales this morning and wanted to take a bottle of diet pills. I have gained 3 pounds. I…

I stated that I was only looking to lose 67 or 70 lbs but at the rate I am going it is now 100+. I weighed this morning and I have gained instead of lost. I am so hurt and desperate. I am a 43 yr old grandmother who desperately wants to get her body back. Any suggestions on how I can beat this over-eating monster?

You look great! I have all the same life changes that you mentioned. I am not sure how to add you as a friend so will you please add me so that I will have someone to write when I feel like giving up. Your post is motivation. Thanks

Hello, I am new here also. However, I do have one friend. She is the one who got me into this. I, too, am depending on each of you to help me along the way. Likewise, if there is anything I can do to encourage you, I will. My director said to me one day to stop looking at how much food I am doing without and focus on…

I just recently joined MFP, but I have been weighing in every 4 days. I was advised not to do it daily because it can get a bit discouraging. I am battling this thing head on. I slip some days but I get right back on course and try harder the next day.

What are these Levels you are talking about? I need help?

You look amazing. Do you have any tips or suggestions?
