Feel free to add me! I try to comment on my friends' activities at least two times a week.
-
I'm getting some of those comments, too, but try to take it as a compliment, since these people have seen me lose 30 pounds already and how I look SO different.... They've still got the "old me" in their heads. Oh, and also, they don't see me without my clothes on! ;o)
-
On Facebook (or similar sites) when people write "LOL" all the time and haven't even said anything funny, or when they write things like "can't believe all this crap that's happening" and put no details!

I'm 5'9", medium build. Started at 192, am currentlu 161, aiming for final goal of 145.
-
As long as I can control myself, I DO try to eat some "naughty" foods that I like a few times a week. Otherwise, I've found that if I completely deny myself, I eventually lose control and end up being 3000 calories over on a day from binge eating. Good luck!
-
Looking forward to seeing others' answers to this post! I snack on almonds or popcorn. Bananas also keep me full.
-
No, no, no! I'm 5'9" medium build, and my goal is 145, so 140 for you at two inches taller sounds WAY off. Don't let your friend discourage you!!! Instead, continue working towards your goal, and when you get there, YOU should decide if you've "made it" or if you need to go further. Congratulate yourself on how far you've…

Did you eat at least 1200 calories today? If so, you'd be ok not eating them back, as long as you don't do it often. From what I've read, you only go into starvation mode if you're under 1200 calories for quite a while.
-
Maybe give it a bit longer, and have your friends/MFP friends hold you accountable. I say you can do both WW and MFP- why not? Good luck to you!

Lost 3 pounds last week! Going to post early today, because my last 4 Sundays, I've been WAY over on calories..... Maybe reminding myself I'll need to post here will help me keep calories in mind while I'm eating today..... Have a great day, everyone!
-
I did change it to lower-case before I posted..... Must be my camera resolution or something.
-
Congratulations! Keep up the good work!

Saturday- 16 under, but I passed up dessert, so I'm proud of myself!
-
Hmmmmm, anybody know how to make these pictures smaller????
-
I would think so- the more encouragement, the better! ;o)
-
384 over today- did really well until tonight, when we had a trivia fundraiser and my mom won a silent auction cake from my favorite baker. Passed up cake yesterday, so my inner frosting fiend must've escaped! Will do better tomorrow. From a previous post question- I've got my goals set to lose 1.5 pounds a week, so MFP…

Thursday 282 left! Good job, ladies!
-
You can start with a multivitamin- that's a pretty safe start. I also take Viactiv (tastes like chocolate) to help me reach my daily calcium goal. I've heard that fish oil is also recommended, but doesn't make me feel that great...
-
Feel free to add me! I have about 20 pounds left to my goal weight, and am getting fit and healthy to hopefully have a baby in a year or two...
-
I would normally donate them to Goodwill, but am currently saving them because a friend of mine said that whenever I get pregnant, I should have some "larger" clothes to wear after the baby's born that aren't just maternity clothes. So, that's the only reason I'm keeping them- for future post-baby body (whenever that…
-
On Saturdays and Sundays, I make myself exercise as soon as I get up (or right after church on Sundays), and that way, I feel like I have a good start to the day. Usually, when I exercise in the morning, I don't want to waste all those calories I just burned on naughty food. Have been having some tough Sundays lately, but…
-
Since I use a variety of dance/kickbox/etc. workout DVDs, I just log them all under "Aerobics, general," then figure if I burned more calories than the site puts down for me, it's a bonus!
-
Hey ladies! I was just wondering what each person's weekly weight-loss goals are..... I'm aiming for 1.5 pounds a week, and have been losing 2 most weeks. Just thought our "under calorie goal" might be put in perspective if we know some people are aiming for 1/2 pound a week and are REALLY under their calorie goals most…
-
I recently saw a post on here about "Zig Zagging Calories" that had some suggestions- do a search for that one- it had a daily calorie suggestion. Good luck!
-
Wednesday- 426 under (just about the same amount I burned exercising). Going to a baby shower tomorrow, and I LOVE cake- must be strong!
-
Whenever you do get to your goal weight, maybe take it slow, like 100-300 extra calories a day, then after a few weeks, be sure to change your goal on MFP to reflect that you don't want to lose any weight each week- it should give you a guideline of how many calories to eat. Good luck, and congratulations!
-
Tuesday- 63 under. Today was a no exercise day, so I think that's pretty good!
-
I think you're ok, as long as you don't have that many left for a lot of days....
-
I did one, and surprisingly wasn't hungry at all for the 3 days. But, 2 days after I went off, I got really really sick from eating food again, so just be careful!
