MFP has 1800 calories as my daily "goal"...that has to be incorrect. Same as my daily carb and sodium allowances. At 1800c/day, I will never get "there".

wow you look great. maybe I oughtta investigate p90x

1 excedrin pm or benadryl and celestial season's "sleepytime" tea. I work 12 hr night shifts and periodically have bouts of insomnia and this does the trick; plus I don't feel all crappy groggy when I wake up.

I totally feel your pain....my story goes just a bit deeper: In Sept 2009, my 37 year old husband had a heart attack. When he came home from the hospital, everyone in the house was supposed to change "ways" because Jason had to. I didn't mind...you're my husband, I will do this to help you. Not so easy convincing an 11 yr…

Pack a little lunch that you know is healthy for you and take it along on your errands today. Beat the urge....I know, it's hard--but you CAN do it.

Dear Mr. Man on the treadmill next to me this morning, 1. It was 1am when you got there...there was a whole room full of equipment for you to choose from, you didn't have to pick the machine next to me. 2. I know I have a big butt. OK a really big butt. It has been following me for 37 years. I don't need to hear you…

I work night shift 7p-7a...when I get home, I am pretty wiped. My workouts are inconsistent as far as time goes. Tonight I got off early and hit the gym around midnight....so I don't want to eat much at that time. I came home and had a banana and a pear. I drink LOTS of water all day. I refill my 32 ounce bottle 4-5 times…

I do straight cardio. Don't know "how" to lift. 60-90 mins on treadmill. Incline 11, speed 4.5mph. Good for about 1200 calories in 60mins.

pink is my favorite color. i wear socks pretty much all the time (even when yeah....you know) because I am always cold. 73 is the yr of my birth. HEY! GET BETTER

where y'all from? maybe if any of us happen to be close, we could work on this together? Northern IL here...

I'm in. Does it start today then? mmmm going to be tough with turkey day just around the corner. We can do this :)

Saturday night my husband and I went out...they were charging a cover at the door and neither of us had cash. I stayed with the doorman while he found the ATM machine. It was the first time in almost 20 yrs I was able to get into a size 16 (coming from a 24). When husband walked away I noticed a table full of 20something…

I only wish it were as easy to go back as it was to get here.

I am feeling good about this site. I was a little shocked today at my sodium intake. YIKES! Just a tool to become more aware I suppose. Good luck on your journey.
