I feel like a bottomless pit today. I am logging everything so that I can see how bad it really is. I try and limit myself to this once a week, usually on a Friday or Saturday because I weigh in on Fridays, but for some reason I am having a hard time resisting temptation today. I know it will be okay. I refuse to let it…

I am 5' 4". My ultimate goal is to be 126, but I would be insanely happy with 140. As long as I can fit in a size 8 I will be happy no matter what the weight.

Feel free to add me. As of today I have lost 11 pounds and I am on my way down!

No you are not overreacting. You are being a protective brother and for good reason. Good luck with it all. Just be careful that you don't do something that will get you into trouble.

This is perfect. Love it!

Bump

I am a 4:30 person. I love that I have actually gotten used to it, I am not forcing myself out of bed..I am excited about it. I do workout at night also, but if I don't have the time or don't want to for whatever reason, I know that I got it out of the way in the morning and I feel great about it!

My husband said I should use diet pills to slim down quick to get where I want to be and then just maintain.....ummm...WTH? I know he means well and just wants me to be happy, but c'mon!

I am an emotional eater. Tired, sad, happy, bored, you name it. I have found that since I have been really trying to stick to the calorie allotment on MFP it is getting easier day by day. Feel free to add me!

For me, eating carbs just leads to eating more carbs, depending on what it is. I could go to town on a bag of chips, but if I eat a bagel or something and eat it as a meal, then I am usually okay. It is the mindless munching where I struggle. I know they say that it affects your blood sugar and that is what leads you to…

I am 36 years onld, 5' 4" 177 pounds looking to get down to 130. Anyone can feel free to add me!

I would eat an entire can of black olives in one sitting, and I absolutely LOVE green olives in certain food dishes and my bloody marys!

I wasn't eating mine back because I didn't have a heart rate monitor that I could trust to tell me how much I burned. Now that I have one I log the calories I burned and don't always eat the calories back, but use it as a buffer. MFP should only tell you that you are not eating enough when you are below the 1200 calorie…

I only looked at a couple days of your diary, but in my opinion you are not eating enough and you should also add more fruits and veggies to your diet. I am struggling with a plateau myself right now and I know it's frustrating, but if you are doing the exercise and eating right it will eventually come off. You didn't gain…

48 pounds by September 21st for a friend's wedding.

Always by Carol Rose, for book club!

Tight stretchy pants that cover your knees, if you will be crawling, this saved me...and shoes that you can tie super tight and can't pull off. I did the dirty girl mud run last year and have it scheduled this year too!

Yes. The instructions said to disconnect it from the band when you are done and to not even store them close to one another.

I haven't had any trouble so far. I get mine pretty wet before hand and yes, it beeps alot when I am not in the zone so I turn off the sounds when I am doing certain exercises as it gets annoying. I tuck it under my bra because I think it would be too low if I kept it underneath it.

So far I am signed up for the Air Climb, which is stairs, lots of 'em (47 stories) and the Dirty Girl Mud Run. We usually do the Susan G Komen brast cancer 5K and I really want to do the Color run this year. I am just trying to build my stamina right now going on the treadmill for the same time, but faster speed. I need to…

I always exercise in the morning and right after I drink some milk. Then about an hour later I have my actual breakfast. I am looking into a blender though so that I can make protein shakes.

Mine come and go. I used to have them very often, but I blame it on my subconscious. I can always link my dreams to something in my life, so if something happens to me, or if I have an experience and I don't want to dream about it, I purposely think about it and say to myself, I don't want to dream about that. I don't know…

Bump! Thanks for the great, EASY, recipe!

I am newish...for the second time around. I think we could all use a little encouragement! Add me if you like!

I just keep telling myself that no one is going to do it for me. You gotta think about your health and know that what you are doing is going to help. Good luck to you!

That it really is up to me to make this change. The pals I have on here are encouraging, but they are not physically here to push me. I have to do that myself, and I am so proud when I just get it done!

Wow! That was really hard. I had to go slow and really concentrate on it. Weird!

I feel like all of my weight is in my hips, booty and thighs. I know you can't spot reduce, but my plan is to do lots of walking and squats!

I have started over and over again too. I am so sick of it! Feel free to add me, maybe we can help each other!

I would like to be consistent with my workouts and get my sweet eating under control. I would also like to lose 15 pounds.
