I was just logging on for the same reason. I lost 80 pounds 10 years ago and am slowly creeping back up. I have gained 25 pounds I just need gone. I feel like it has been the same old thing lately. Gain a few, lose a few. Need a support group for extra motivation!!!

I personally always have a fluctuation of water weight, being a woman is no fun! If you are sticking to your calories you will not gain. I have a Fitbit and have it synced with MFP. I find it helps me keep a great balance going. The more active I am the more calories I can allow myself for that day. So if I am going out to…

It is all about how your body processes sugar and since carbs breakdown into sugar you have to watch. My body does not do well with breaking down sugar in the mornings so I don't have carbs for breakfast. Learn your body and then create an eating plan around it.

Portion control, and monthly cravings!! I am learning about trigger foods and it is helping.

Finally, support for us......way to go, I love this. I am also 5' 10" and have a size 12 shoe. I truly think I can say I am "big boned"..lol It is tough to near your goal weight and be in a size 12 instead of a size 4 and have 175 be a goal weight when for so many a goal weight is 130. It took me a long time to realize…

I am the queen of injuries. I lost 80 pounds and have had several foot injuries and knee injuries. the most important thing to remember is that you will not injured forever. Time heals. I love to workout hard so if I mess up with eating it all balances out. Staying at a healthy weight is a lifetime committment, when I am…

Wow it is amazing how many of these things go on in multiple gyms. I thought the pube drying was unique to my gym, obviously not! And the guy from the 1970's , yup he is in my gym too. I dont have a particular locker room story but I agree that people are WAYYYY to comfortable in them, seriously folks, just change and move…

Cycling is awesome. I recently had an injury and could no longer run. I resisted the bike for a long time but now it is my best friend. You can definately get a GREAT workout on a bike, and I agree that the elliptical is also great on the joints. They are the only 2 pieces of cardio equipment I use.

I had severe plantar fasciitis, I ignored it until I was hobbling around on crutches. I went to the doctor and first thing is take anti inflammatory meds like aleve and tape the foot up for a few days and rest. Once it is not quite as painful you have to start stretching it out. Pleanty of stretching exercises online you…
