Hi Princess and welcome! You'll love it here! :flowerforyou:

Hi there. I too recently joined and I am already seeing and feeling quite a difference. I love this site and I have been finding it very helpful this far! Have fun on your cruise!

You are so right Debbie. I'm going to go into the party with a plan and if I can't stick to it then I'm going to move on. Such is life! :wink:

That's great Silver! Stormie - I think it's great that you decided to take charge of your life and live healthier and happier! I quit smoking back in March right before I had to have an emergency surgery. I never went back and now the smell of a cigarette is disgusting to me. I just got back from a 1/2 hour walk with a…

I'm doing Slim in 6 and I'm loving it. I'm on my 4th day and I'm down 6 pounds already (I'm sure that was water weight, but I'll accept ANY way that it comes off) I wish you the best. We have a support thread if you would like to join us. Here's the link…

Stormie - welcome and congrats on losing 8 pounds and being smoke free for 90 days! That's awesome! We're glad to have you here, jump right on in! :flowerforyou: Christine - good luck with cleaning the bathrooms. That's definitely not a fun task! :ohwell:

What have you been doing to get down to where you are? You're doing wonderful! Keep up the excellent work! :happy:

Yes, I am buying the pizza and both parties are at our house. We have 10+ kids coming from 1-3 (she's turning 6 and all the kids are 6 and under) and we're having family from 4-6. I still have a few days to decide what I'm going to do, but I do know one thing...I am going into it with a plan. We are getting a few sheet…

That's awesome Debbie and Kathy! I weighed myself this morning and I was 161.4 or something like that. I am SO happy! I have a recommendation to make. I weigh myself naked, first thing in the morning after I go pee and before I do anything else. It seems to give me the lowest number which makes me the happiest. Just a…

I have started a support thread to help keep each other motivated and encouraged. Here's the link if you are interested in joining... http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/63691-a-new-me-let-s-get-started

That's an awesome outlook. Don't even look back at what has or hasn't happened. Today's a new day and you can choose to start fresh! Best of wishes to you! :flowerforyou:

You should keep trying because you are doing this for YOU. Maybe you should have a talk with him and tell him that you would really appreciate his support! Keep your chin up and keep moving forward. You can do it! :flowerforyou: I have started a thread to get weightloss buddies that will help keep each other on track. Feel…

Megan - that's awesome only 2 more pounds and you'll get some pampering! :flowerforyou:

Hi and welcome to all the new members! Kathy - maybe you should try weighing yourself this morning since yesterday seemed a little off to you. Have you decided what to do about your calorie intake? I think I have gone semi-crazy, I got up this morning and added an additional workout. I am so extremely motivated and excited…

Have you tried Motion Sickness bands? You wear them on each wrist and there's a little ball that pushes on your pressure point on your wrist to help ease motion sickness but it works really well for morning sickness. It was a life save for me while I was pregnant! They were tacky, but I didn't take them off except to…

Hi Silver and Emily! I can't wait for everyone to get involved on the board and getting lots of conversation going! :happy:

That's great Daniel! Keep up the good work and the positive changes. :drinker:

Hi Blondie! I think that's awesome that you lost 12 pounds with restricted activity. I don't have any recommendations for back pain other then low back pain. I LIVE on my heating pad when my lower back is killing me (sometimes for days). Have you seen your doctor and checked into muscle relaxers? Where is your back hurt?

I would give it a few days and see what happens. If you recently started the 1,000 calories that could be why. I think that maybe you should check with your nutritionist and see why your calorie intake is so low. Everything I read says 1,200 is the absolute lowest for a woman (I know someone else said that too) Hang in…

I've had the same problem for years. I don't have a good answer for you though. It literally took me deciding that food is not worth looking in the mirror and feeling like crap everyday. I decided that I was ready to do something about it and take charge of my life. Food is done ruling me! For me, I thought tips that are…

Hi everyone! I'm so excited to "meet" all of you. :happy: I would like to give massive kuddos to both Bri and Christine! You both have done wonderful losing weight and I think it's great that you have decided not to give up and are keeping true to yourself. :drinker: So, I guess I'll tell you guys about my day. I don't…

Hi ladies, I've started a thread for us all to follow and support each other. I hope to see you all over on the new thread and get to know you better. Here's the link: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/63691-a-new-me-let-s-get-started?page=1#posts-780960

Name: Lisa A little bit about me: I am married to my best friend, Josh (just celebrated our 8th anniversary) and we are high school sweethearts. :heart: My daughter is turning 6 next week and going into the first grade. We have been trying to get pregnant with our second baby for years, and we’ve had some very difficult…

Do not give up! You are going to have your bad days and the days that you feel down. Take it one day at a time. Who cares if yesterday was a bad day....today is a whole new day with the opportunity for you to make all new choices. And by the way, there is a point to you doing this. You want to feel healthy, more confident…

Wow...what nerve. As an adult, she should know right from wrong. Plain and simply, you do NOT make a comment like that to someone, even if it is what you are thinking! I think you are a very strong woman for taking a stand and sending her on her way. I don't think I could have done that, but I honestly do not know because…

I am sticking to eating around 1,200 calories per day and not changing my intake based on my exercise. My doctor told me to burn off more than I eat, so I am trying that route to see how it goes. I am doing Beachbody's Slim in 6 DVD workout's and I love them. I would love to lose about 50 pounds, but I don't know if it's…
