  • I have found that if I make something I don't particularly like for dinner, I tend to snack at night. I have a 5 day streak to carry over from February so I hope to keep going and adding to it. ME - 5 LNS - 0
  • Count me in. SW - 315 CW - 263 GW - June 1st - 240
  • Bad day yesterday. I tend to snack at night if I don't have a meal I really like. Starting new today and I will make it.
  • This is something I need. Not only night snacking, I am trying to go without between-meal snacking. I have about 50 pounds I would like to lose yet so need help on this. I have 50 pounds over the last 2-3 years but continue to work on it. I will give this a try.
  • I'm with you. I have been with this off and on for several years. I have also tried WW but with all of their changes, I'm giving that up and sticking to MFP. I have bad knees and can't do much exercise so losing weight isn't easy for me. I would like to lose at least 25 pounds by the end of April and am looking at knee…
  • Happy 4th of July Eve. What are everyone's plans for the weekend. We just stay home and don't do much. I have bought steak and twice baked potatos and that will be our dinner. Have a question for all. How often do you weigh? I am a daily weigher and find it helps me realize if I am eating too much.
  • My problem is serving size. I have to quit after one helping. The good thing is that as I get older, I tend to eat less. That should help me lose weight.
  • Hi all. I am getting serious on the weight loss journey. I have followed MFP for quite a while at the same time as I was doing WW. I am going to be more persistent with MFP as I think it might help me more than WW. I have arthritic knees and will need surgery sometime in the not-to-distant future so any encouragement I can…
  • I am not new to MFP but I haven't used it for some time. I want this year to be the year I really work at losing weight and vow to checkin everyday and be honest about it. I have lost 50 pounds over the past 3 years but that is not the final amount I want to see. I just have to make up my mind to do it and my DH is 100%…
  • I weigh myself every day to see how I'm doing. At times I get depressed because it is hard to believe a person can lose or gain 2 pounds or more in a day. I only write it down once a week on Thursday. I was doing it on Monday but I found it better to wait a couple of days after a weekend.
  • I also was down at my weigh-in today. 1.5 pounds. Yippee. On the road to making my goal. Cool day here. Currenty 45 degrees and should get to maybe 55, if we are lucky.
  • I think we all "fall off the wagon" at times. I am trying real hard to track but I find dinner the hardest. We don't eat basic meals as I do a lot of cooking and figuring points myself, which isn't easy. I also don't do much exercising because of arthritic knees. I do go to the fitness center and walk in the pool 30…
  • I know what you are going through. I don't remember being so cold when I was heavier. I have lost about 45 pounds and it had to be 85 or 90 before I would even think about wearing shorts and tank tops. I think a person's metabolism changes with a weight loss.
  • Good afternoon. I haven't posted for a couple of days because I am on vacation. We are in the north woods of Wisconsin. Very scenic and very quiet. We have seen many, many ducks, loons, deer and chipmonks. I have been having a few stomach problems but my DH says it is anxiety. We have the whole family here, three…
  • Friday fitness? Now this is a good subject. I would say what I am doing for fitness is just losing weight. I need, or might need, knee replacement and if I can lose weight and become a more fit person, I might not need it. I also try to get to the fitness center twice a week and walk in the pool for 30-45 minutes. I won't…
  • Hello. My name is Jackie and when I started my weight loss journey, I needed to lose over 100 pounds. So far I have lost 55 pounds and would like to lose another 75. I am following weight watchers online in addition to this caloric program. I compare the two daily and try to see how I am doing. My biggest problem is…
