lol-- I thought the same thing to myself when I calculated my BMI--my goal weight of 150 still considers me to be overweight though :0( good luck!! keep up the good work

I have a treadmill and that was my main source of exercise, also do a few aerobic videos . My main goal was to burn 200 calories, so at 1st it took me longer , now I bumped up my speed and burn the 200 calories in less time .. I walk at 4.0 at a small incline. When I first started treadmill, I was only able to walk at 3,…

I am a chocoholic too. I cant help it. I have NO control with that. I have a dairy allergy so I TRY only to eat dark chocolate, but I dont care, I will eat any kind of chocolate. I try to limit it and track it. I dont smoke anymore and drink occasionally so I guess this is my only vice...and I have done the same with…

whatever decision you make good luck - just try your best to maintain a healthy diet while you cannot exercise. and if you do put on a few pounds, dont beat yourself up. u will get back on track

I have the same thing, large fibroid, havent done surgery yet. I was going to have it done last year but then changed my mind. Wanted to lose weight first. So far I dropped 33 lbs by using MFP and prior an additional 30 slowly on my own. Since the weight loss the fibroid hasnt really bothered me that much, so I am not sure…

2 teenagers, work and hubby. I should have been exercising, but instead I was making myself crazy making sure house was clean, bed was made, cabinets & closets organized..etc...last August is when I had my breaking point and started MFP, prior to that I lost about 30lbs very slowly on my own, also adding in a dairy allergy…

I just did level 1 of Jiilian's 30 day shred..yep, she kicked my *kitten*, but that was good, I needed that

no processed foods , since I started MFP I weigh all my food , and that taught me how much I was really over eating. I work out at home. I have 3 and 5 lb weights as well as resistance bands, I have not been using them that often =( The weight loss seems slow, I have 33lbs to go until I get to my goal. Thanks for the…

congrats --u look great ..LOVE your hair color.

Giant schanuzer/lab(65lbs) and a rat terrier(11lbs)

Thanks for the advice. I never tried the coconut yogurt, I did not like the almond or soy either...There is 1 latose free yogurt but it only has 3 flavors. I have been using the coconut creamer for my coffee. I didnt think to make the other stuff with the coconut milk... TX!!

Good Luck Tracy!!! Friend me for support. I have high BP as well, I was at 240 at my heaviest. My goal is to be healthy and off the BP meds for good...This is the best site for you, and 1-2 lbs a week is the healthy way to lose...

wow sounds exactly like me, same here , weighed 240 last year, got myself down to 212 then started MFP..love it. Never told my husband how much I weigh either , esp since he weighs less than me ( not for long though!!) I am down 7lbs, but still have a way to go.

you should feel proud of yourself, not embarrassed !!! Hold your head up high and enjoy the compliments . Some people might just be jealous of you that you had the willpower and dedication to do it! I had someone tell me WOW you lost A LOT of weight meanwhile I only lost 6lbs since I started MFP plus 14 prior after I gave…
