  • Thank you for talking about this. I think your right. I'm going to limit what goes on fb, because of what you guys already know! Misery does LOVE company..and im not part of that crap anymore! Lets all do this!
  • I know how that is! I decided NOT to link mfp to fb because of people opinions! I get the same crap at work, I work in a kitchen at a school, and they laugh at me for not eating what they eat. I will have some fruit and veggies but I can't have what they have. So, I would do the same, don't let this get you down! You know…
  • Welcome! Feel free to add me if you'd llike, I'm on here everyday as my committment to losing 50 lbs and getting healthy!
  • Well, I am pretty blunt, so here goes! This site, as you know is wonderful, but you have to get off your lazy butt and do it! Make your schedule and stick to it. Stop beating yourself up and just do it. Everyday, do it. Eat with intention..and when you over come a temptation...tell yourself you are proud of YOU! No one can…
  • Its a great tool! I say, use it and be consistant. I need to take advantage of mine as well. Give yourself a couple of weeks, thats what I would suggest. Its really amazing how you use your own weight! Simple is great. Good luck!
  • Hi Tiffany! Welcome, and let me tell ya I've been on here since Sept, and its great! I am on everyday, so that I can track what I am eating and doing for movement!...I think if you are really serious, you will be on here everyday. Its also great to encourage your "friends" on here too. It helps them and you at the same…
  • Welcome!! This site really rocks! Its the best one I've seen :) Best wishes you to! Lets all be "losers!"
  • I'm also 5'9. But I am older than you. I would pace yourself! We all have lives, but I think the key is putting down some rules for yourself, like no eating after ______pm. You decide. And have some supportive friends, even hubby? Anyhow, just keep going, changing your habits, and taking it one day at a time. I know the…

  • You are doing good. I don't know about your water intake, but that's a good way also. Hang in there!
  • Okay, first....WTG!!! 5 Flipping MILES!!! Dang! That is awesome! I think you need to talk to the person who is leading this. Seriously, you are doing really well! And if she is an idiot and isn't nice, I would show her!!! And talk to your friends in the group too. This is your time, your money and its for you! I would…
  • If I were you I would start doing more physically, drink at least 8/ 8ozs of water and paying attention to what your eating. I have a higher protein diet because I am carb sensative..so I eat less carbs. I need to lose 50 lbs and I have decided that like you, this is my year! This site is fantastic! Add me as a friend if…
  • I loved Curves when I went to them. I love who they are, and the simple 30 min workout. I really enjoyed going there, but mine closed and I didn't go back after I had surgery. So, for me, I learned a lot and lost weight. I think YOU have to decide what works for you. 30 min is very simple and its a great workout too. I…
  • That was so cute! Love it! Welcome!
  • Its amazing what you CAN do if you just take the time to do it. Go to the store, and see what you like and what's in it. If you eat mostly whole foods you are good. An apple is very little cal! Just take one day at a time...you will do fine!
  • Welcome!! Get busy, get focused. You can do it! I will add you, and again welcome!
  • I would put on a pedometer to see how much you walk...and use that! Walking is working out!
  • OMG!!!!!! I'm sad for you! Im big in my butt...I've gotten "fat *kitten*" for years! Its crazy isn't it. If someone says that again, you should say something like, "I have a tumor" and see what they say! Geesh. I just don't think that people think!!!!! Seriously! I hope that you didn't let this sabotage you, because you…
  • I agree with the previous person. Try to make your intake of food for meals about 300 or 400, and try snacking on fruit, especially apples! I ate mine with carmel today. Water too is a big filler! I have this huge 32oz jug of water that I have with me, and I buy the sugar free ones. I also stay away from bread. I eat the…
