I have been trying to lose weight for years. I was successful with weight watchers but it gets so time consuming trying to calculate all of my points and figuring out what I can and can't eat to meet my goal for the day, etc. Now I am having a very difficult time finding what works for me w/out trying extreme diet…

This is good advice. Thank you! :)

And you have been successful with your weight loss, I see. I have always been told I either eat too much or I don't eat enough. That is why I am most concerned in the summer as I find sometimes all I can do is consume liquids as opposed to actually eating.

My beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Krystyna..... you of all people KNOW BETTER than to listen to ridiculous nonsense such as this!! I know you have your sensitive side as we all do, but you are one of the toughest girls I know. You simply now know that this girl is someone you can NOT count on to make you feel safe.... she…

My name is Tammy Current weight is 195 lbs. GW is 140 I have already started, but if you want someone to exercise with you, I would be glad to do it with you. I work out Monday thru Saturday (2 weeks so far) .... and depending on the exercise, I either go 30 or 60 minutes. Please go to my page and add me as a buddy and we…

Hi Jessica.....I think you look fine the way you are. You definitely DON'T need to lose any weight. If you feel "jiggly" .... do some focus work on those areas.... do lots of core work and get a six pack.... :) Otherwise, you look great. I wouldn't change a thing. Taryn, you look great too. I don't want the criticism cause…

As mentioned above, you are probably losing inches before lbs. I feel discouraged sometimes, too as I have been doing really well (for the most part) myself and am not seeing a difference on the scale. What keeps me going is that I am seeing a bit more curve to my waist AND I can feel the muscles under the belly fat…

Welcome, welcome, welcome!!! Good luck on your goals!! This is a great place for that! Not only to keep track of your eating habits and exercise...but to meet wonderful, very supportive people!! Don't be shy! We are all here for the same reason!! We want to get healthy and can't do it alone!!! Feel free to add me if you…

I know the feeling. I did weight watchers 2 years ago w/out exercise and dropped a really decent amount of weight!! Everyone noticed the drop in size!! Unfortunately I lost track of myself and got back into old habits bringing me back here once again. This time I am counting my calories and working out from 30-60 min/day…

welcome, welcome, welcome!!! you are more than welcome to add me if you like.... the more the support, the better!! so much helpful advice!! you will do great!! Good Luck To You!!!

is this a complete butt kicking exercise??? i am going to work on insanity, but scared... probably start it next week......still unsure...

Hi! Welcome! Good job with the 7 pounds so far! If you need a buddy..feel free to add me anytime. I have only been back on track for 3 weeks. I haven't lost but 3 lbs and I have been working out and counting calories daily!! I have a mini goal of 185 right now with a complete goal of at the very least 155. I weight I have…

8 years ago, I went on this "diet" I guess you could say, to win a bet. I quit drinking dark sodas (I loved my pepsi!). I lost a ton of weight it seemed just by cutting out dark soda!! Then 2 years ago, when I had to start watching weight, again....(starting to see a pattern here..lmbo) I quit drinking alcohol and dropped…

That is awesome!!! You should post before and after!! Congrats on your success!!! How much did you lose?

Hey there! Welcome to MFP!! Sorry. I don't know about trails in Tacoma, but am here if you need anything. Feel free to add me, also! Good luck to you!!

My advice to you would be take today off....it is sunday....AND....go have it looked at. Look at it this way. It is probably just badly bruised, but better safe than sorry!! Good luck!

Ha ha.. I agree with you on that. The donuts MUST GO!!! I find the drawing ad a good one. Makes me want to click it and find out how to lose that belly fat....HOWEVER.... :) since I have seen it before and clicked on... I will agree the ad is bad because it is a ploy to get you to buy stuff.....

What a bummer!!! SS that happened to you!! :( Also bummed about this post because I just recently realized how much I love black beans and thought you were posting some new, amazing, healthy burger..... Ah well...... enjoy the rest of your vacation!! Stick with fruits and veggies.. You shouldn't go wrong there!! :)

One thing that I like to do is add lemon to my water with stevia or splenda. It's a homemade refreshing lemonade that is yummy, gives you your water and BOOSTS YOUR METABOLISM!!! :) Good luck!!

FABULOUS SUGGESTION!!!! I have PB here, but am trying to become more fond of Almond Butter. Maybe I will get some more of that and try it out! Thank you!

Well, to sort of touch on each of your suggestions..... My target right now is 1200. I got this target last year so I don't remember how I came to it. It was here somewhere, I think. Anyways. I can't say for sure that I am hitting the 1200 daily because when I add in the exercise it throws everything completely off balance…

I started Hip Hop Abs last week with Shaun T. I really like it. It claims that you will lose so much in the first 6 days, and I found that to NOT be true....HOWEVER... I have lost inches. It is a lot of fun to do.

Don't feel bad. I went way over (probably) on calories this weekend, too. However... I have NOT met my calorie goal ONCE this week, so am hoping that I didn't do too much damage. Don't be so hard on yourself. We cannot be great everyday! :) Just get back at it!!

Thanks for posting this website. I could use all the help anyone has to offer!!! :)

I, too, use the Kraft Olive Oil Mayo. I like it. I used to be really picky when it came to mayo, so for me to use it....it has to be good!!! :)

Welcome to MFP!!! I have only been here for one month and this site has helped me tremendously!!! You keep track of all your food and exercise....and when you are feeling down and out you can post and everyone here is really supportive and full of great ideas!!! Good luck on your weight loss ventures!!! If you need…

Very Very good points! I am working out now as I was not then, so true....I wasn't gaining muscle. I am doing cardio but not weight training. I actually just heard something today that with cardio, your metabolism slows down almost immediately after your done, but weight training, you burn the fat for a much longer period…

This is really really good advice!! Thanks. When I first started this, I thought that 1200 was the most I was allowed to have and really (not trying) would only do about 900 thinking I was doing myself a really good deed. I found that I should be EATING the full 1200 calories. I don't really try to eat what I have burned…
