Hi Erin I just read your post, and in doing so feel it's helped me through my slump to date. Feeling a bit low. One of my MFP friends says it sounds like I"m at a plateau and feel she gave me some great advice. I'm really hoping it works for me. I've been on MFP for 6 months now and have lost 20 lbs. I started this journey…

Sizzling!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great Job!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank You!! You just remotivated me! You look fabulous and happier!!

Ohhhhhhhhhh You look wonderful and happy!! Congratulations you are such an inspiration to me!!! xoxoxo

I hear ya. I've tried losing weight in the past and have succeeded to a point, then found friends and family were trying to sabotage my weight loss, ( like I wasn't doing that myself lol) it's so hard to do. Now that I'm doing it again, I am only open to discussion here and with my doctor. Everyone else is OFF LIMITS on…

Wow that is a GREAT thought! You just hit the nail on the head for me!!!!! Knocked the sense right into this here old girl! What you said is EXACTLY what I had done!!!!!!!!!! :sad:

Wow I am really proud of you. Just reading this gives me incentive to keep with this! Thank You so much for being here today for me.:flowerforyou: Valerie

I will feel victory when somebody will finally look at me and say.... Are you losing weight? After 12 lbs, no one has noticed yet. It's a drop in the bucket for me too. sigh

I have lost 12 lbs of face and boobs. Wth? LOL

Hi, I understand where you are coming from. I use the BMR method, FINALLY!!...after being so afraid to up my caloric count. Here is my story in brief. Wad doing the 12000 perday, felt fine, exercised but after 30 did not lose even one pound. My doctor told I was starving myself but of course WHAT DOES SHE KNOW? so I…

That is bad advice!

I can tell you why. 1200 calories is not enough for you. I had the same problem. My doctor KEPT telling me I had to do 1500 at least or my body would never lose weight. I didn't believe her because my "wrong" thinking was telling me that fewer calories should make me lose faster. THAT IS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally decided…

I am new to this a couple of days ago. Really I think I can handle following this easy set up but would be nice to have some friends msg me so it doesn't feel like a journey I take alone. I need to lost AT LEAST 50lbs. ugh!
