  • Good morning! Way to go on joining the gym! In addition to working out on my own, I really love taking classes, I.e., spin, TRX, Body Pump, & Boot Camp. For me, it keeps it varied and my muscles are never sore in the same spot!
  • Thankful for the guy who plowed my drive!
  • You are correct. There is a reason. I am suggesting that you try to look at all of the reasons why weight loss is not occurring.
  • Wow! So many encouraging comments! I'm someone who has always needed at least 7+ hours of sleep. Perhaps your body's metabolism has slowed down a bit to conserve energy. You could always try getting a few more z's and see if that helps. Stress has a way of getting to us too, so if you have a way of de-stressing, that might…
  • Barbie - Thanks for the specific instructions on how to find my favorites quickly! I get it now! You have all motivated me. In fact, I was wanting to eat some not-so-good things and came to the board to see what you all had to say! My goals for this month are: 1. Log everything! 2. Pray and be mindful about my food,…
  • Well. I have figured my way around this posting area and I found my way back! So thankful for all of the positive encouragement!
  • Such good advice offered! I think you can "overthink" the situation and become obsessed with it too. Eating real food, not processed / packaged food, and moving - whatever kind of movement you like, biking, dancing, walking, etc. is the key. You don't have to be a gym rat, but you can be! Do you see what I mean!? And,…
  • Thankful for a new day! Beautiful snow, warm house!

  • I've been looking at fitbits... do you have one that also tracks heart rate? Also, butbygrace206 - I keep getting lost too! :smiley:
  • Good morning! I'm new here, but after reading your posts about "forgetting" to log what you eat, I thought that someone had written about me! I have recommitted (again!) to posting everything. I know we can do is! Because I'm new at this posting stuff, it seems that my biggest problem is finding my way back to the specific…
  • I'd love to be part of this group. I'll be 56 soon. My goals is to lose 15 pounds. I work out in the morning 6 days a week, but also work full time sitting at a desk. My goal is to log "everything"! My biggest downfall is when I get home and am starving. I know I need to plan for this in order to stay on track. Have really…
  • I'd love to join you all. Three years ago, using MFP, I lost the weight. Then... you know the story, back to working on getting another 15 pounds off. I work out in the early morning and am looking for some support. I'm new to the board, so I'm not quite sure how to get back to this group or if this will even post.
  • I am a stress eater. Anybody have any ideas as to how to get food out of my mind when I'm in a bad mood or a bit depressed?
  • Congratulations! Usually when someone wants you to join in it's because they feel it will be more fun for them. It may be that they are jealous of your willpower (and way to go, you have lots!) and smart choices. Every time you are tempted like this take it as a compliment and think about how far you have come and how…
  • I cut out all caffefine last March (was a Pepsi-aholic) and experienced the headaches, etc. I ended up taking No Dose for a couple of days to get the caffefine and eliminate the headaches. In addition to the addiction to the caffefine, there's also the habit of drinking/tasting to break. I won't touch anything with…
