Hi there, Great dedication to run for 90 minutes. Are you training for anything? I run half marathons but do not keep the long runs up like you are all the time. I found that to run more than 90 minutes when training it was about nutrition an hour or 1.5 hours before my run. So I would have a smoothie with some protien in…

Try a Zemba class, its fun, social and usually not in the morning! I find a mix of exercise and finding things like zumba or skiing that I actually enjoy doing help a lot. Also an hour zumba is 500 calories!! That is 500 more you can eat!

Cruel people are losers. Don't give them any power. You can feel sorry for them for their misguided bullying behavior but given it was a drive by you cannot influence them. What you do have control over is your response. You have grace, you are doing great things for yourself and you have this community and your own…

Yes you can maintain and not count, but be careful with portion size and choice. Just because you are not counting does not mean the food has zero calories. And as everyone said weigh yourself regularly.

Thanks for keeping the great discussions going, we have a great leader! I do not have a cheat day for food as I have no willpower to stop eating something sweet. I have allowed really small portion of wine (4 oz) on Friday night. And I am taking Fridays off from exercise. I am just beat by the end of the week and I want to…

Will send you a friend request. I suggest you join the 90 day challenge. We have a great leader, lots of energy and just a nice size group. I am only up 12 pounds this time but I am yo-ying from my big weight loss in 2007!

Stay with it coolchik, fluctuations are normal and are annoying as hell. If you graph it you will be on a down hill slide. Keeping up motivation when the scale does not move is hard so vent away on here! We are here to support you, you will lose and I bet next weigh in you are down!

I love my legs but I love them a lot more when I am at my ideal weight! I sturdy trunks right now! Was never blessed with "girls"!

Read all your posts and they are very inspiring reasons to get on the journey. Like many of you I have fought the battle of the bulge all my life. My last major weight loss was in 2007 when I dropped 30 pounds (sounds like not much but I am only 5'2" and that is a lot of weight on my frame!). I was so happy at that weight,…

Hi all, For me the thing that I am not going to have is white wine!! I love that stuff and its so fattening. Do not care for soda but a nice glass of wine......I cannot resist and I can drink two glasses easily and that will cost me about 400 calories. I gave up all candy years ago and will stay off that because like some…

Good for Cool chick getting us going!! My weight on Jan 5, 2014: 128 pounds (I am 5'2") My goal weight is 118 pounds I was 130 pounds on Jan 1st but I started the year out re-joing mfp and doing the right things. This is my third yoyo since I lost 30 pounds in 2007. I was down to 120 in May 2013 and then gained as I had…

Starting over again too. I am up 12 pounds so have not gotten right up to where I had been in 2007 but I keep yo yoing. I need to re-learn the right habits and stick with it. Too much wine, too much snacking, too little exercise. Easy to get off track, I had an injury which is what started the upward climb. Add away, need…
-
I would love to join. I am back after gaining back 12 pounds that must come off as quickly as possible. None of my clothes fit and I refuse to buy new ones. My wardrobe will be terrible until I get this weight off!! I have never had success losing quickly so not sure I would make 14 but maybe 10!
-
Ok how is it going ladies? I am joining the 90 day challenge to get some motivation. Need to get at least 12 pounds off by end of March. Some of you have surpassed that already. Awesome!
-
:smile: Happy to join your lead, great idea! 90 day challenge sounds perfect. My goal is 10 pounds in that time or better.

HI Jane, Glad to be on your buddy team. I am back too with a Jan 1st start. I was down to goal weight in the spring of 2013 but broke my wrist and then my ribs. The lack of exercise really did me in. Gained close to 10 pounds I need to get off again. Goal is to have it off by spring again this year and keep it off! I need…

Hi there, Similar story here, 56 and had lost 20 pounds in 2007. Creeping up and at 7 pounds over now, I am trying this and hope it will help me keep motivated. The new weight watchers diet does not work for me, the old one did.
