Congratulations! I've seen many of your posts and you are a great encourager! Thanks!

I'm with you! It's all in the mind and we have to stop thinking about food all of the time! I've been working on this... really trying to be mindful and s l o w in my eating. When I reach to grab something I need to evaluate the reason why. It's getting there, but it is a slow process.

Hi! I'm reading the book (again)! Presently in Chapter 3. My motivational song is Brandon Heath's "No Turning Back"!

You can do this! Sometimes I think I do myself in... get so close and then I figure that I deserve it and... well, you probably know the story! Point is, we do deserve it... we deserve to eat to live and not live to eat! We do deserve to move and be healthy! We do deserve to be happy! Empower yourself! (I'm talking to…

I'm in... A little late joining this, but I have been faithfully logging my stats into MFP since 2/1/15. I've successfully used MFP to lose the weight before, but mess up when I get to my goal by thinking I can eat anything. Have come to realize that as much as I'd want, watching and being accountable to making…

Tami, I love your grandma's quote! It sounds like she was an awesome person and very wise. So sorry to hear that she passed.

I totally agree with everyone about the cold weather. Just when it started getting warm enough to go walking or snow shoeing, it dove back into the single digits! Although I go to the gym or swim almost everyday, there's nothing better than getting outside!

Jharwell58 – Congratulations! If you picture is any indication, I love biking too! Smoochy65 – Way to go! Sometimes it just takes time, but if you are eating well, logging, and moving, you’re good! Butbygrace206 – Saw your comment about sending recipes… when you look at the “reply” box the 9th icon from the left that looks…

Wow! Congratulations! You are an inspiration!

Thanks, Katla49!

Hang in there! See what your levels are.

How does this become "a group"? Anyone know? If so, let's do it! :smile:

Cherrys – Welcome! I love this group of women! Lots of inspiration and encouragement. I too am looking forward to losing the 20 extra pounds that I have put on in the last few years. Hang in there, you can do it! Mo2go – I am hypothyroid and during the last three years have gained about 20 pounds… don’t mean to get you…

And have fun! Keep it light! This is hard, so we might as well have some good times doing things other than eating! :D Thanks all for helping me on this journey and for all the encouragement!

This morning I read the part about "I'll start again on Monday" ... or for me "tomorrow". Lysa said “God, I want a biscuit this morning. Instead, I’m eating poached eggs. I’m thankful for these eggs, but I’ll be honest in saying my cravings for other things are hard to resist. But instead of wallowing in what I can’t have,…

Barbiecat - love it! :)

Good morning! I haven't posted since last week, but I've been keeping up with you! Just want to say that you are all an inspiration for me to keep with it. Had a great day yesterday sledding with a friend... Yes, sledding. At first when she suggested it I thought she was crazy! We did it and I haven't had that much fun…

I'm reading the book too. I'm new to the message boards, so I'm not sure how a "group" works or if this is one!?! The book is amazing (it's not the first time I've read it) and I really NEED to make this journey one with God and one for Him.

Okay (gulp!). I'm in. This is a first for me, doing a weight challenge, that is!

Patting, I know how you feel! It's hard, but you need to refocus your mind on something else. These cravings usually hit me when I am sitting watching mindless TV and it helps me to do something -- anything! Hang in there!

Good morning! If you are having trouble getting up for a 30 minute workout, have you thought about trying to get a good 15 minute one in right away in the morning and squeezing either a workout or extra movement of some kind (walk, jump rope, whatever) in between "life as it happens"? You need to do what works with your…

I love working out in the morning! But I do have to get up early; usually between 4 am - 4:10 am depending on what I'm doing. My workouts vary, but I do work out 6 days each week. On most days I'm in the office by 7-7:30 am, and most nights I'm in bed and sleeping soundly by 8:30 pm! If I have energy left over, I'll do…

Okay, you just have to laugh at that one! My ad is flowers! :smile:

Good morning! I Have almost the same goals, am 55 and want to lose about 20 pounds at 3-4 pounds per month, but I think it is going to come off closer to 2-3 pounds per month! I love reading all of the encouragement here!
