Hello I just turned 30 this past February, I have 3 kids and I work full time and go to school, look forward to meet other people my age on here, feel free to add me as a friend, I am about halfway to my goal

Frischs is my family favorite because of the kids and being affordable and I can always find something healthy for me, nothing fancy just affordable on a small budget and my family size, and I love my subway

Hi Im Brandy and I was born raised and still live in Dayton Ohio. I have 3 kids and two doggy kids and I am married. I work as a teacher assistant and am going to school full time to become a teacher. I have only struggled with weight since my 1st pregnancy and gained almost 100 lbs partly due to having hypothyroidism and…

Happy Birthday and Congrats, you've got a good start!

Ive lost 65 lbs since this past January, some months Ive lost close to 10 lbs some 5 or 6, and here lately its been 3 or 4 lbs a month, Im guessing because Im getting closer to goal, but I feel Ive lost in a nice even pace definitely not too fast. Im a little more than halfway to my goal, I still want to lose 45 more lbs…

Well If you dont have any Jillian Michaels she is a good place to start, she has several out including 30 Day Shred, Ripped in 30 just to name a couple and they sell for 10 or less at Walmart Target, Then I also like The Biggest Loser DVDs they also sell for about 10 and I like Lesley Sansone walking ones, last time I was…

Ill be having a WW meal as well....with a spinach salad topped with tomatoes and light ranch iI have class so these come in handy for those nights

I am proud to say I am soda-free(diet and regular) and loving my water, its the best thing ever!

Not in the same way I just got to my halfway point and someone was asking me about my weightloss and I was excited and made the comment that it was my halfway milestone and I till want to lose 50 more lbs and they said I would be too thin so I explained to them that the weight I want to be is right in the mid range for my…

I get up and do my workout to DVDs first thing before thinking about it I just get it out of the way, You remind me of myself when i was going to the gym i joined with people and they would go with me for awhile then quit and i didnt/couldnt go by myself (Idont drive)so that was my excuse well after awhile came to the…

ThanK you for your service and time and sacrifice so that we can have the privelige to be with our families, wish you safety and a blessed holiday too as the season comes closer and hope you get to call family at least

Well between Thanksgiving Thursday and Friday I will have 2-3 Thanksgiving dinners to go to (my husbands mother's side of the family does theirs Friday afternoon) and Ill have my familys and his dads side the day of one in early afternoon and one in the evening, so I plan to do my regular workouts in the morning and have…

I just went through a month of going back in fourth in a three pound range, and this week I finally started seeing new numbers:happy: Just be patient and keep trying new things like becca_21 said, this week I started a new exercise and thats what helped for me and I upped my calories maybe 50 but just try new things until…

I think that it shouldnt be a reward, just a once in awhile indulgence and kick it into high gear the next day with some hard exercise and of course lots of water. Eat light through the day and you can make it fit into your diary and still stay under your calorie goal, but even if you didnt and you want the ice cream the…

I think eating clean and fresh is the way to go most definitely!, However I believe that there are far worse things we can put into our bodies which is the reason many of us are on MFP, I have a busy schedule and I do eat WW Smart Ones and usually I heat up a bag of steamed veggies or a salad with a slice of whole wheat…

Just about Every morning I weigh after restrooming in underclothes, I only report on MFP once a week and only if its a loss, like someone else said I dont make a big deal about it usually if its up I know why and learn from it and how my body is

a couple of things: one a picture of me and I was so disgusted, next the number on the scale 242, I knew that if I creeped over 250 without a problem I would more than likely end up seeing 300,and the last thing was how I felt with my husband I was so ashamed and did not feel like his attractive wife

I agree go Water drink up! I guess people dont have to drink it but its so much better, I rarely drink anything else. I have a 32 oz bottle which I fill 3-4 times a day which is 12-16 cups a day

I take Vitamin B12 (promotes energy metabolism) in the morning as well as a multivitamin everyday for the most part it always keeps me energized throughout the day unless I really didnt get enough sleep. I notice a big difference in my energy when I forget my vitamins But taking the vitamin and some of the snacks that…

I liked the old WW better and people on the new one eat alot of the 0 foods on the new one like another person mentioned and it adds up, I have the new books and calculator at home but dont really use them, and the meetings arent worth the money when you have MFP for free and alot of friends on here is just as good to me,…

A personal Trainer would be nice too

Liking the chef idea to cook me healthy meals

Maybe one of these days minus 50 more lbs I have noticed Im getting more confident with wearing short skimpy shorts and a tank top to bed and thats after 62 lbs if Im that confident now Im well on my way to sleeping a little cooler:blushing:

My water!!, exercise DVDS, love my gym membership but due to schedules havent been able to go so my collection of DVDs have come in handy

Im also 5'4 my goal is 130, I have lost 62 lbs so far and have just made it into the 170s, the last 5 lbs I have lost has been sooo hard so I couldnt even imagine what you're going through and what I have to look forward to as I get closer to my goal. It took me 9 1/2 months to get to my halfway point and Im thinking it…

I have been getting up and getting it out of the way as soon as I can wake up because thats when it fits in my schedule best, I really dont have a preference though I guess just when I have the time I need to get it done and not think about it

Im in size 14's too and the greatest thing about them is that they are getting looser!! Looking forward to some 12s

I know the feeling only your 10 lbs ahead of me I came from 240 and trying to get into 170s and I seem to have stalled the last 3 weeks havent really gotten anywhere....We just got to stick with it and maybe try new things we will get there!!

Me too, it was my reality so I can relate My other guilty pleasure tv shows are Law & Order SVU and Biggest Loser
