Welcome to MFP! I also found this website through the application and I love it! I don't have internet at home so if I can't track my calories at work I can just pick up my phone. No more excuses!

Wow, that is quite a difference! You look so happy now!

Wow, what a motivator. The ending of your post almost had me in tears!

Wow, such a big difference! You look stunning!

What I would do is write it down. What was said, why does it hurt, etc. Give yourself some time to cool off and request to meet up with the gossiping friend. Calmly talk about what was said that got around (don't name names, it makes defenses go up). Address your concern with her that you two are long time friends and you…

Admissions Support for a college. Run the front desk, calls, enrollments, student files, reporting, liaison between other campuses, etc.

3 degrees (was -4 when I left for work). Snowing, about 6 inches on the ground. :)

Merlot wine or vanilla vodka in diet soda. Yummm!

I've NEVER worn a two piece or bikini. But that's going to change this summer! I am committed to finally getting to wear one. So motivated in fact that yesterday I bought a two piece. This summer I'm DONE with one pieces. I don't care how many crunches and days at the gym it takes!

Fantastic job! I see a tremendous difference everywhere on your body! It almost looks like you've lost more!

I personally weigh myself every Saturday morning, and I put my new number regardless if it's negative or positive (hopefully not in the plus!). It keeps me in track, and it updates so all my friends on here will see it. If it's in the plus, I know I have a good support system that will get my butt back in gear!

She will be missed but it's understandable. I hope she does more with her other show, "Losing It." That show is also very inspirational.

I haven't seen much flirting yet but I find that so adorable! Two people committing themselves to better health and finding each other. Sounds like a great start!

Wow, that's a big difference! Congrats!

Hey it's harder than it sounds. Kudos to your 6th day of clean eating!

Welcome to MFP! About ordering out, I'm in the same spot. Fast food is so convenient and with roommates it's just sometimes convenient because when I get home I can't always guarantee there WILL be food. But there are quite a lot of healthy options. Denny's and IHOP now have calorie counts right on the menu! And for your…

That is amazing. I can really see your muscle definition and you look so much more confident!

Thanks for posting this because it put a big smile on my face and made me that much more motivated. You're doing a wonderful job on your journey and tears of happiness belong on MFP!

Wow! Your belly is gone! That is such a hard place to lose weight at. Wonderful job!

What helps with my cravings is to get different flavored teas. Usually something with a caramel flavor will help the sweet tooth and it's 0 calories, and helps with water intake.

Way to go! 7 pounds gone, more to go!

Totally agree with above. We all have our moments and "fall off the wagon". It's really about picking yourself, starting a new day, and recommitting to your health. This is life, we are allowed some fun and some mistakes. :)

Welcome to the forums and to MFP. This place is wonderful and really works. Good luck on your journey!

I work out evenings Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Wednesday I focus most on weights. Thursday I mix weights and treadmill running. Friday's I do HIIT training with treadmill/elliptical/cycling Saturday I do HIIT as well, and go wild since it's a day I do not work and have the next day off. I weight in Saturday…

The loss of pets can be really hard. I dread the day one of mine go. But great job finding a good emotional release. Sometimes it's just so easy to sit on the couch and drown out sorrows with comfort, but then you feel even worse later! Boxing sounds so much fun as well, thanks for the inspiration!

Hmm. What I would suggest is perhaps researching it on the internet and then when logging your exercise, manually entering it. It's what I've done in the past with exercises not found on the exercise list. :)

And with every lesson in walking, there will be times where you stumble. But you'll keep getting up and soon be running! :) Welcome to MFP!

I weigh myself once a week, Saturday mornings to be precise. I do that because my friends like to party and it keeps me in control because I know when I wake up Saturday I have to face the scale, and want to wake up excited. However I also look at myself in the mirror after weighing in and check to see if I have any…

Does anybody know where I can watch the first episode online in closed captioning? I checked Hulu and didn't see anything yet but really interested in trying out this show!

Wow, that was a great and necessary read. I have to admit I even got a bit discouraged in working out and eating mostly clean and only losing .8 of a point. But she's right in that blog. Obsessing over a scale isn't going to necessarily show you all the changes in your body. Great read.
