I"m 5"11 and have been on MFP since July 2011 (different account) and have lost 53 pounds - I LOVE it! It has taken 20 months and I lose quite slowly but I also still enjoy wine and the like. Taking it slowly has helped me acclimate to healthy eating and exercise in a sustainable way. Anyone please fee free to add me - my…

This is beyond awesome - practical, to the point - thank you so much for a real example. It is incredibly helpful to see one, even for those of us who stalk others' diaries for ideas.

I'm 5'11 and anyone can add me!!

I"m 5"11 - I hear you about the difference between tall folks and short - I have lost 52 pounds since July 2011 while using this site and I love it. I have 8 more to go to get to my first goal - the 185 I'm currently at, while sounding good to me, is horrific to some other folks :) Anyway, feel free to add me - that's an…

Best wishes to you all! Folks, feel free to friend me - some might accuse me of living in a land of butterflies and daffodils but it's a happy place to be :)

What a Fabulously Awesome Success!!! You look absolutely amazing!! PLEASE don't be ashamed - you have accomplished so much and should be proud of how wonderful your dedication and drive is - you, my friend, are a rock star.

I have both. I love the Polar HRM - it is one of the best tools I have used in weight loss. I am on my second one. I liked the Fitbit but it pretty much burned my arm off. No kidding. It's stated in the literature that some people can have a reaction to it, and I don't know if I am the only person in the world that had…

I'm 5"11 - started at 237 and now am 185.4. It has taken 18 months but I'm not in a hurry - no more yo-yo for this lady! My goal is 177 and then probably 170. I have had two different accounts on MFP since July 2011, but I LOVE this site. This, my Polar HRM, patience and making it about being healthy is what has worked for…

Many, many thanks Sara - I am going to implement this right away. I really appreciate the help!

Many thanks!

Thank you - I am down with doing NROLFW again - if that's jut the best course I just need to do it. Any other nuggets of wisdom on calorie consumption and the protein, fat carbs question would be great. Honestly, I'm probably just overthinking it. It seems like a bunch of stuff I have read just agrees on 1 gram of protein…

Well, I'm going to answer honestly though is embarrassing. 1, my scale weight jumped up 6 pounds. And it didn't go back down in the two weeks I completed. 2, even though I had been at least sporadically working out I was in a lot of pain after the first few times and just stopped. I'm past worrying about the scale though,…

Feel free to add me! MFP is a great place!

Thank you! You had sometime previously posted a link to a different article on this site that led me to finding a bit of a Q&A that enormously reduced my stress over my slow weight-loss (17 months to lose 50 pounds). I took the advice on the site and started a spreadsheet that showed me how I am on an incredibly…

An absolutely fabulous reply to the original post - great advice.
