  • SW: 200 GW: 189 Super Excited! Maybe this group will provide me with some much needed motivation!
  • For me personally, planning makes it so much easier! I get to plan ahead and see what can fit into my calories and macros, and it's kind of fun actually. It helps me stay on track, and be aware of what I'm eating. It's also great to plan ahead if you want a treat at the end of the day, it helps to avoid temptations…
  • I'm 5'6, currently 195, my starting weight was 226. My goal is 150, though. Sounds like we're in a similar boat! Feel free to add me, we can encourage each other :]
  • I LOVE Skinnytaste! I recently made the loaded baked potato soup and baked ziti, they were both delicious and you could not tell they were low calorie! Her recipes are great if you aren't a big fan of veggies, because she finds ways to sneak them in, and you still feel like you're "cheating"! Love it!
  • I'm 21 hoping to lose about 50-60 pounds, I've already lost 30. Anyone feel free to add me!
  • You have almost the same starting weight as me! I hope when I lose the weight I look as great as you do! You look fantastic! Very inspiring :]
  • Okay, that makes me feel better! I just hate seeing those red numbers :P I won't worry about it then, just focus on not eating too much sugar, which is my major downfall. Thank you!
  • Zumba is wonderful! If you can find a class near you that has zumba/zumba toning, it's zumba combined with 3-pound weights. I hate "working out" too, but I look forward to going to zumba every day. It's a combination of latin dance, hip-hop, and belly dancing. You can start out with the video game on the wii, which is not…
  • You can add me! It sounds like we're in the same boat, I just started two days ago because I have been having difficulties staying on track, and my weight loss has plateaued. I've lost 25 pounds but have been losing and gaining the same 3 pounds the past few weeks. Hopefully MFP will help me!
  • I am the same way! I get so tired of water, so I use Crystal Light a lot. Although, it's true that it has aspartame which can effect different people in different ways. I discovered Crystal Light Pure made with Truvia and cane sugar which is much better than aspartame, although if you drink a lot of it, the amount of sugar…
  • I use Biotera styling gel, i think it's just a generic version of biolage hair gel. I run it through my hair after I shower and let it air dry. It works really great, and it doesn't have that crunchy feel to it!
  • I don't know if anyone has said this, but Bolthouse Farms yogurt dressings are amazing! The ranch dressing only has 45 calories and 3 grams of fat in 2 tablespoons, and it's delicious! Tastes like the real thing :]
  • 1). My sweet tooth is bigger than my head. If there are cookies, cupcakes, ice cream, ANYTHING with large amounts of sugar lying around, there IS no resisting, so I am now having to learn how to limit myself. 2). Growing up, I was never told no. If I wanted Mcdonald's, I got it. If i wanted soda, fries, etc, I got it. I…
