Most of my clothes (workout included) have come from Walmart. I especially love the Rider comfort stretch waistband jeans they have. If I need something fancier, I go to Dress Barn.

I don't know if there's a group, but there's a thread of Garmin peeps here: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10170723/garmin-loneliness/p1

Odd, a couple of other people added me and everything's set public...

I have the vivofit (similar, but a step "down" as far as Garmin models go) and I love it. It's simple but does exactly what I need it to. I'll be interested in the responses as well because I've seriously considered upgrading to the vivosmart.

I have a vivofit. My username is leighbee1934. Feel free to add me! I'd love to connect with other Garmin users! :)

I used to get them all the time, usually on the placebo days of my bc pills. Now that I have an IUD, I'm told they will go away completely. There was no eating or exercise with mine. Dark, silent room. And lots of Excedrin. I hope you find something that works because they are the worst!

That's AWESOME!!! :smile:

Write 2015 on everything instead of 2014. :smile: ....and eat better and workout more and all that jazz. :wink:

I currently am not exercising other than the small amount of walking to class I do. I'm in my last semester of college and I *chose* not to exercise because that was just too much. For. ME. As far as weight loss, I have been losing, just eating at the deficit MFP gives me. I'm decently consistent with my logging and I'm…
-
Yup. Twice. Lost 50 of 70, gained 25 back. Lost that 25, gained 50 back. Now back to lose the 70. FOR THE LAST TIME. :) You can do it!
-
I try really hard to keep at a deficit and within reason make sure I don't feel deprived of the things I love. Like my Boyfriend's Mom's *homemade* apple pie. I still log everything, but allow myself to eat at maintenance. Probably happens on average, one day out of every two weeks. I plan on giving myself more maintenance…
-
I have to be able to see the number the same way I have to be able to see my bank account balance. I can get in denial quickly with "Certainly I didn't spend *that* much at Vera Bradley" and "Nooo, I only ate 1 candy bar". Self accountability for me, it absolutely necessary.
-
You look great! Congratulations! :)
-
You have inspired me! I'm going to set a goal to lost 27 pounds by my 27th birthday - which is next July. :D Should be well within doable, but between now and then I'll be finishing and graduating college (50 days ;) ), starting as a FT employee at my internship, and moving...again (groan). So I'm going to give myself…
-
-Yes, log every day. -Rarely, if I do, I remember by my next meal. -147 days -I keep logging because...chocolate. I have stopped logging in the past because I overeat and get depressed/disgusted with myself. This year, I went on vacation and overate but logged it all. And. Did. Not. Die. :) ;)

I'm using the Active Network, LLC (developer) Couch-to-5K app (starting week 2). I found 2 that connect to MFP in some way (https://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps/show/134 and https://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps/show/131) and I think I'm going to give one/both of those a try. I like the Active one, it gets the job done, but it…

My mom used to run track and she always told me to breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. I usually try to time each breath to last 2-3 strides. In In In, Out Out Out........ If you keep trying and you still don't like it, don't do it! All things are not for all people. Find something you enjoy and do…

Started with 71lbs to lose, I've lost 10, so I'm down to 61 left. Losing that will get me to ~162lbs which is the tippy top of the healthy BMI for my height. I'll stay put or lose some more depending on how I feel when I get there.
-
Absolutely not. They would have to pry my cat from my cold, dead hands.
-
^^ agree. I would not try to do 3 miles your first day, you risk getting hurt. As far as going forward, it helped me starting out to take it one thing at a time. I set my weight loss on here to be 1 lb/week (even though I have enough to lose to set it at 1.5 at least) and I just logged. Once I got a handle on that amount…
-
I start week 2 tomorrow! Feel free to add me :)
-
I also work at a desk job and 2 months ago when I started back here, I decided to get my eating under control first - start logging consistently and completely, and start developing a healthy relationship with food, then moving back to getting active again. I didn't really exercise, but I stayed within my calorie goal and…
-
Started going back to the gym. Hadn't been in 2 months when I said I was going to try working out at night instead of the morning. Morning just works better for me. WHOOP! :smiley:
-
Usually when I raise my veggie intake drastically, I get that problem too. I agree with @TeaBea on the Fiber One bars. OY. Good luck! :)
-
The first time I derailed was because I had shoulder surgery and felt sorry for myself because I couldn't exercise (avid runner). The second time was last summer. I got happy. Really happy. We went out to dinner all the time. I wish both times I had been more aware of the weight gain. Major denial.
-
The first time I lost 50 pounds, I went from a size 9 to a size 8. I couldn't believe it was a thing!
-
My boyfriend was on Medifast for a few months, and I tried it with him for a couple weeks. It. Was. AWEFUL. It only adds up to ~1000 calories for the day. I was sooo tired and hungry all the time. :grumble: That and the food is *okay* but for the price? SOOO not worth it. (~$300/month :noway: ) I am SO much happier just…
-
Yes. 68 days until graduation and a full night's sleep. (but who's counting?!?! :wink: )
-
Agree. I don't usually pay attention to who has been gone and for how long etc. I got enough crap to worry about in my own life. :flowerforyou:
-
I did the same thing at first. Between Jazzercise and not eating enough, for a couple days in a row, I had a net of 400-500. (Ate 1300 worked off 500-600). I had to start slowly to avoid binging. After dinner, I would wait a few minutes and get a bowl of cereal. Gradually, I was able to start eating a little more and…
