bump!

can't wait to try these

I have the Fitbit flex and absolutely love it!!! I've worn a pedometer on my waistband before and had waaay higher readings with it than with my flex so I think it takes into account some of the arm movements. It asks you when you're setting it up wether you're going to wear it on your dominant or non-dominant hand. Either…

gotta try this!!!

I'm 5'1" and my goal is between 125-130. I have wide hips though :)

BUMP! I would also like to hear from the peeps who have trackers :)

Hold on.....while I do agree with what everyone else said about eating at a calorie deficit, exercising etc., I HAVE noticed that when I wear tighter clothes around my midsection it does seem to remind me to suck it in/engage my core while i'm doing cardio/weights. Maybe thats what you're feeling??

I'm right there with you....I tend to gain any added pounds around my butt and thighs. The only thing i've found that seems to help at all is lots of leg exercises with heavy weights (squats, lunges, etc). It sucks but it's the only thing that works for me :)

bump!

My stats are close to OP and stephe1987!! Name: Liz Age:26 Height 5'2" Start weight:148 (May 6th, 2014 Goal weight: 128 by September 6th

I actually want to know the answer to this too. Anyone?

I really like this :) it was very inspiring. thanks

Actually, that makes a lot of sense. I know this website works! I lost 12lbs doing MFP before but I was in college and doing it with all my roommates. Now i'm married and my husband couldn't gain weight if he tried :)

Well……we went to my husband's company christmas dinner and even though I had 800 calories left i'm sure i went over. I didn't even bother to put them in. Open bar and filet dinner (It was so worth it though) So i'll show myself to the door. See you in January! Good luck everyone :)

can't wait to try! bump

My healthy choice will be to not eat all the carbs in sight when i get off my 12 hour shift today! (its what I do, but not any more!!!) :smile:

Hello everyone! I'm Liz. I'm 25 years old and my job as an RN is what i've been using as an excuse not to lose weight. I've been using MFP on and off since college. I'd like to lose 10lbs before my inlaws come to visit in mid January. I'm 5'1'' and 148lbs I'm so excited about this group because I always do better with…

Yum!

omg. We are the same age, height, and weight. That is nuts!! I would love to have someone to check in with. Let me know if you're interested :)

hey!! i would LOVE to hear what kind of results you have. please keep us updated.

Plain cheerios with a sliced banana on top :)

cookies....all kinds :(

I know for me i was getting the worst headaches in the evening and couldn't figure out why. It was my blood sugar crashing!! I've just started doing low carb but my headaches are gone and i am not having nearly as many cravings as i was. It also makes me eat more veggies :)

I'm doing a low carb diet but today i was dying for something with carbs and chocolate :) I made a 100 cal bag of kettle corn and sprinkled cocoa powder and cinnamon on it. DELICIOUS!!!!!

Actually, you're already at the low end of the BMI scale and 115 would put you in the underweight category :( I would just focus on healthy eating :) good luck

Tried it. it did seem to supress my appetite but i didn't see any serious weight loss

yes!! someone please enlighten us!
