-
Yeah I found the thread!!!! Isnt there a way to link the thread on the past thread with "continued here"? I've seen it on other ones but dont know how it's done. I start this Monday at 173. Water was not great over the weekend. I think I got in 5 yesterday total.

ARG!!!!! Ok, so this happens to me often, I make a small success like I did last week of loosing 2 pounds then I blow it all in one day! 1700 calories in one day OVER where I was supposed to be yesterday! Today is a new day....two down :drinker: :drinker: and more to go. Hey mxburke, will we be getting a new challenge for…

You may have just answered your own question!!! For me it has to be fun, challenging and usually involve others. I have been struggling with the motivation myself for over a year now. 3 weeks ago I joined a running clinic. I have NEVER been able to run. It has been the best class ever!!! I have also taken belly dancing,…

Lunch White Corn, 2 Tortillas, 1/2 tomato, 1/2 avacado, 1 tbl parmesan cheese, 2 oz turkey breast and 1 tbl hot sauce Snack cup of lowfat cottage cheese and 10 strawberries My total calories for today so…

No truer words spoken!!!

That's a HUGE milestone! What are you talking about?! So you didn't hit the 100 but you came close. Its kind like playing darts. You have to have a target to aim at and even it you don’t always get the bullseye you do get close. You must feel so much better having lost 70lbs. I know when I have lost weight in the past that…
-
Wow that is awesome!!!! Good for you! Have you always walked to work or is this a new thing for you? I have a friend that lives close enough to work that he can take his bike. I wish I had that option. Keep it up you're doing great. And yeah, the food thing. I find that when I logged EVERYTHING that sometimes I have not…

I only got in 6 total for Thursday :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: I'll check in at the end of today with my total. Did did however get out a 40 minute run this morning!!!! Today is starting off so much better than yesterday did!
-
I would only recommend this site to someone who is interested in being healthy. I have mentioned this to a few friends but like me, they were already frustrated with their weight and had unsuccessfully attempted doing the gym thing or fad diets. However, if they are plump and happy that way? Then I would probably would…
-
Dont beat yourself up, we all do it. Today is a new day, go do something good for yourself like take a walk or hit the gym. Trust me you will feel so much better after!
-
Lost a few and gained a few but ended the week on a happy note at 173. That was enough to motivate me to get my butt out the door and do a 40 minute run before work today!!! YAY ME!
-
Yes I did and after 6mons canceled my membership. The place was clean! Had tons of equipment and free weights in addition to many classes. However, every time I went there was a sea of people! When I work out, I do not want to wait for a machine, or weights or bump into anyone. I want to go, get my workout out of the way…

WELCOME NEWBIES!!!! That feels funny to say since I've only been on this site for a couple of weeks now myself. However, I LOVE MFP. It is set up well and everyone I have met seems to have a good grasp of how to do it and the desire to do it. What is so cool to me is that once I joined this site I find that I have so many…

Nope, all you have to do is click on the Home tab, then Settings, then click on Change Signiture. Copy and paste the ticker formula there and save then yell BINGO! Ok so you dont have to yell bingo for it to work, but it makes it more fun if you do. :laugh: :laugh: Then, every time you post you're current stats will…

ok...i'm done for the day :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

I'm glad you're feeling better Kelynn. My mother is diebetic and it can be tough trying to find the right balance. Ok guys I am just not doing well at this water thing. I'm in for 5 today so far and it's 430p my time so I still have time before bed to get a few more in. :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

Ya know, I used to drink the protein shakes but then I read recently in a blind study milk had the same benefits as protein shakes in weight loss and muscle gain. Whey protein is from milk right? If I were a competative body builder I might do more research on it but, milk tastes better to me and is way cheaper. I think…
-
Dont forget avacados! Love them!
-
hummus and raw veggies is one of my favorites, freash fruit, carrots. Something else that will cure a craving with me especially during colder weather is to make a cup of chicken bouillon with hot water and drink it like a tea. May sound weird but, it's low calories and it satisfies a salt craving.
-
I agree, you have the best combo and 5-6 days a week is my goal as well. But don’t forget to eat your exorcize calories also! You need to fuel the fire in order to get it going and keep it going.
-
OMGosh...all this talk of blueberries made me have a craving for them. So, now I have them with my morning oatmeal. I have 1/4 cup slow cook oats, 1/2 1% milk, 1/2 blueberries and abt 5 strawberries. Cook it all together in the microwave....YUM!!! It's so aromatic my co-workers commented on how yummy it smelled. Very…

I just started Sept 11th SW 177 CW 171 GW 145

You know what's weird? I was over my calories yesterday by like 300 and most days I am over by about 100 or so but, I've lost more weight this week!!! I started the week at 175 and I'm at 171 as of this morning. I am eating my exorcise calories and trying to get in a run 4 days in addition to some feeble attempts at…
-
I include wine within my caloric intake. As long as I am within my limits I see no issue with it. I partake in a few glasses a week and I am still loosing weight. The only issue might be having a slice of cake to go with it. :laugh: :drinker: :drinker: Two down for me today but it's still early!
-
I believe that once a week probably is best for most but I have to agree with these two ladies. I have a tendancy to go into denial if I dont watch the scale closely.
-
BTW - I was over my calorie allowance by 325. :sad: I was hopeful to get in a run this evening but I'm kinda working two jobs at the moment and ran out of time today. I'll be up at 5am tomorrow morning though to head out for a quick run before I begin my day.

Okie doke guys I got to 9 total today - I'll do better tomorrow! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

I slowed down somewhere today, i'm up to 6 :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: ...just filled my my water bottle for another round.
