  • Did you get any response for this? I did the Dirty Girl run today and did not know how to log it either
  • You look fabulous!!!
  • Totally inspiring! YOu look fabulous
  • I'm 50 and I had my one and only at 36
  • Thanks for the advice. I think I might try the 30DS alternating with walking (and possibly the Sansone) workouts that I googled. I absolutely love to swim but don't have pool access often and the few gyms here with a pool are too far away or too much money right now. In the summer, I do much better. I have a crazy schedule…
  • Wow!! My starting weight (3 weeks ago) is like yours was. I hope I can do as well!!! What size are you wearing now....you look great!
  • I weigh once per week (Monday's) and plan to measure once per month. The first 50 lbs (still to go) will probably keep me keen on my actual weight but after that, the size pants I purchase will matter more because at that point - I think from the comments I have seen that more people will have fluctuating weight due to…
  • I'm new too and quite lazy but I am in love with MFP. First - I log....it is addicting. I love it. It has opened my eyes to what I have been eating. I also read diarys all the time - to get ideas on meals, snacks, etc. because I did not know HOW to eat healthy. I still slip up or give in (chocolate) or make a bad choice…
  • I smoked from age 15 to age 42 and have now been quit 8 years. I went cold turkey. I used a support group similar to MFP called quitnet. It told me how much life I had added each day quit and how my lungs had changed. The 1st month - I air smoked. I just used the motions and took very deep slow breaths - inhale, exhale…
  • I tried WW in the past and failed. WW is a good program especially if you attend meetings with a group of friends (that competitive reason is what was attractive to me) but as friends drop out and life gets in the way, the meetings became more of a chore and that was the end for me. I looked into trying the on-line method…
  • You look fantastic! Good job
  • Mine is not really "homemade" because I use a seasoning packet but this is it: I ground 90% lean beef and drain. I add 1 package tex-mex chili seasonings from McCormick, 1 can dark red kidney beans in juice, 1 can bush's best chil beans medium, 1 can diced tomatoes - fire roasted, 1/4 cup chopped onion and 1 tsp garlic.…
  • Water to me is great after exercise or when Im really hot and thirsty - but other than that, it is very hard for me to drink water so I have bought the 5oz dixie cups and I now drink one or two every hour. Maybe its mental but it seems easier.
  • You can go to "Find Members" and put in an age range, pounds to lose range and even a location range - This will give you some people to invite. Just always remember - This is the net and people can make up entire persona's including pictures, gender, age, everything. I doubt MFP gets as much fraud as FB - but just be…
  • :happy: When I was in my 20's - I went from a size 8 to a 2 and was drinking way too much (no not alcholic daily but weekend girls nights) but I think I lost because we were at dance clubs and spent hours on the dance floor. Next week, I have a big party to attend and it will be my first since I started MFP (and I am now…
  • I am also new and have a lot of weight to lose and MFP set me at 1200. It is day 3 and I have not made it yet but have been very close. I figured that was a win because I was probably easily consuming 2000/2500+ daily and this diary tool is truly an eye opener for me. Someone in this topic recommended the Scooby calculator…
  • I'm new too and have been surfing the forums and food diaries to learn some good tips, etc. and one thing is that you should not weigh too often - once a week or every two weeks because it does take a little while to see a difference. Another thing is that you may gain "muscle" but during that time, you will probably lose…
  • I love dogs too - We have a pom (10yrs) and a Jack Russell (8mo) and I usually let them run in the fenced backyard but I am going to try including walking them to help get some exercise.
  • I just started but I am also hungry all the time and when I think about changes - my stomach growls - no kidding! I need some friends and motiviation so will be happy to add you
  • That is what the calculator recommended for me but I see myself actually doing about 1500 day. Today was my day one.
