I also have a fitbit but had it replaced a few times so then I lost my motivation. Haven't been able to link my new one to MFP correctly so that's another factor. I ate pizza and drank coke for dinner but then walked for about 30 mins. I work from home so I don't get much exercise in unless I walk during my lunch break or…

Female 5'4" 158 lbs I eat between 1400 and 1500 a day (higher if I workout or on Saturday cheat days) Try to hit the gym 3 or 4 times a week but it's been more like 2 lately due to overtime at work and arctic Chicago weather Goal weight loss is 13-18 lbs. I was trying to eat only 1200 cals a day but I wasn't losing and…

GREAT JOB! I, too, am somewhat at a plateau..I've been fluctuating up to 5 lbs. since last year and now weigh what I did last January (I think). I'm worried I won't ever lose those last darn 10 lbs. from my pregnancy. It's hard to stay focused, especially since I'm losing weight at such a slow pace but maybe that's because…

I just finished a 3 month group challenge I started where I wanted to lose 1 lb a week but ended up losing only 3 lbs total. I was disappointed, but happy I didn't end up gaining, especially during the difficult holiday times. 2014 is a new year, new beginning. I think instead of recording weekly weigh ins, I want to give…

I have the same back problems and work from home full time. Ive tried planks but they cause me more back pain and I cant hold it for that long due to the pain. Could that be cuz of incorrect form? Been struggling with back pain for over 8 yrs and have found no good resolution. Tried physical therapy, chiropractors,…

I hear ya, I felt the same way so I opened up a Busy Mom's Can Still Lose it Group :) We have a goal to lose 15-20 lbs. by New Year's. One of our members already lost 23 lbs in 10 weeks! We have 5 more weeks to go so send me a message if u want me to add you. It's definitely tough juggling it all. I work from home full…

WOW, amazing weight loss..you should be sooo proud! It motivates me when I see ppl on MFP lose 50+ lbs and u lost over 200 lbs?! I am just struggling to lose 15 lbs. I guess when you put your mind to it and work hard, anything is possible :)

I'm 5"4 and finally made it out of the 160's after almost 6 months of fluctuating 2-4 lbs. I'm 159 and my goal weight is 145 (last time I was 145 was in 2008 before I got pregnant with my 2nd son). I used to be in the 120's before I had kids but I wasn't eating right or excercising right so I know that was too low for me…

Wow, u are very brave! I would like to try once a week before I go for once a month ;) Have to hit my 15-20 lbs weight loss goal by the end of the year so need to make sure i'm losing atleast a pound a week. Right now I check a couple times a week, if not every day. Want to be able to get to once a week soon, but good luck…

This is why I hate walking/running outside and prefer to do my cardio in the gym. I'm TERRIFIED of dogs, esp dog owners who don't like to keep their dogs on a leash or care if their dog chases others. A neighbor's dog was running to me while I was on a walk once. I yelled to her to please call her dog back and she got…

Back to the topic of fasting, I do believe it has its spiritual as well as nutritional benefits. We fast one month a year and it's called Ramadan. We don't eat or drink anything from sunrise to sunset (this year that was about 17 hours fast in the US). Also we increase good deeds, abstain from bad deeds and smoking, pray…

Hi, I started a group for busy mom's trying to lose weight and having a goal to lose 15-20 lbs by New Year's. Will send you an invite as I would like to get a group of 10-15 members so we can get the ball rolling :)

Looks like it filled up pretty quickly. I'm new to MFP, back after more than 6 months of not getting anywhere. Will try to start a new group so others can join as well

I'd like to be added as well. I'm a 31 yr old mom of 2 boys working full time from home and need to lose exactly 20 to be at my goal weight. Have yet to lose the baby weight from when my youngest was born 3 yrs ago. I definitely need motivation and would love to lose these darn 20 by new years!

I have 10-20 lbs to lose, mostly baby weight that I have been trying to lose for 3 yrs now :( I've tried boot camps, personal training, cardio. Nowadays, I just try to do 25-40 mins of cardio 3 times a week as I don't find more time to dedicate to working out with a full time job and 2 kids and a hubby. I will try to…

Hi, Don't feel bad, I'm in the same boat, except my baby is now 3 yrs old! :( I only gained 25 lbs. with my 2nd kid. I only had like 10 lbs. to lose so I wasn't too serious about it, but 3 yrs later, my weight has pretty much stayed the same. I'm at a standstill. I workout about 3 times a week, but I don't log my food in…

I try not to weigh daily. It definitely upsets my mood if I'm a pound or two more. I have worked with trainers and they also recommend not weighing daily but more like once a week to make sure you are on track to meet your goals. My sister on the other hand weighs herself usually daily and sometimes 2 or 3 times a day…
