bumpity bump!!:happy:

bumpity bump. sounds good!

I've lost an average 2 year old and I am very happy about it!:smile:

drum roll .......Weigh-in ......254.6. (for a loss so far of 6.2 pounds since the beginning of this challenge).:smile: Yay! another great week on this really long journey. Wish I could fastforward so it goes more quickly but I guess that's not reality. :tongue:

bumpity bump! yum, all these are great ideas. As for the mini blizzard, I need to stay away cause I would be there all the time.:tongue:

Alot of times restaurants have a nutritional value on their site which tells you all the info. I find the key to success is to always plan ahead. I usually look up the restaurant, pick what I can afford in calories. If it's really high in calories, I exercise extra that day and eat low calorie foods for the rest of the…

I am looking for a new scale cause mine shows different weigh-in everytime I go on it. It's a digital and I changed the batteries but it still does the same. Was just wondering with which scale did you decide to go with? :smile: And is it working for you?

Welcome! My husband didn't need to lose much weight but because I am eating healthier and we don't have junk food in the house I have lost 22 pounds and he lost 10 pounds. I love having the support of my husband, it makes it alot easier and he motivates me ! As for your diet, everyone's body is different, what one diet…

Get healthy, no more being obese and overweight, no bordeline cholesterol, no borderline diabetes. Be able to keep up with my husband and son when we go places. Travel more, be comfortable in a plane seat. Look good and not mind if people take pictures of me. And the list goes on and on.....:smile:

Weigh-in at 258 this morning! Yay, I reached my second goal which was to lose 22 pounds so I am getting myself a HRM watch today. :happy: My goal this week is to drink more water, I am going to try and drink at least 10 glasses of water.

You can do this! Make sure you aren't consuming too much sodium, that can drastically change your weigh-in and drink lots of water. I didn't lose at all at the beginning of the week and I was getting discouraged but in the last 2 days I have lost another pound. Good luck and take it one day at a time !:smile:

bumpity bump! yum

Bumpity bump

LOVE the chart Maggie! I couldn't wait till my Friday's weigh-in to post because this morning I weighed in at 259. (for a loss of 1.8 pounds so far) I am finally saying goodbye to the 260's! *happy dance*.

I lost my automobile tire! I have a few more extra tires to lose especially around my waist! :-)

bumpity bump! Yum, can't wait to try it!

I have a fruit smoothie every morning, this one is my favorite one, it only has 165 calories. 3/4 cup fruit juice, 1/4 cup of low fat yogurt and 3/4 cup of frozen fruits. And put in all in a magic bullet. Yum!!

I have found success with just plain calorie counting but interested also in knowing what is calorie shifting?

Welcome! You will love it here, the people are really nice. I have a long weight loss journey ahead of me but I am going to do this and so can you! :-)

I found success with the valentine's challenge and I am going to find some more success with this April Fools challenge.:smile: CW : 260.8 GW for April 1 : 245 for a total of 15.8 pounds.

welcome! You will love it, I have been hear since jan. 3 and have lost 19.2 pounds so far! Just remember the hardest is the first 30 days, then it gets easier, so stick with it. You can do this and think about how good you will feel once you lose the weight!:happy:

You can look up on the internet for the restaurant nutrition menu, it tells you all the calories, most chain restaurants have them. As for healthy, you can almost find anything at different restaurants. soups, salads, fish, I am going to red lobster tonight for V-day, I am watching my calories all day and exercising, so I…

Weigh-in this morning : 260.8 for a total of 19.2 pounds lost since the beginning of this challenge.:bigsmile: Yay! I surpassed my goal and ready for the next challenge.:happy:

I totally agree, I just started in january and find the support and encouragement of people here great. Everyone is so nice and helpful. I love mfp, in fact, I used to be on facebook often now I am on Mfp much more. :smile: Good luck to you, you seem to be on the right track, the weight loss track! :happy:

Hi! welcome! I love MFP, it has really helped me. I don't have the app. on my phone but I am on this internet site everyday. I actually use it more than facebook now. I have met great people who are able to motivate me and I have found success. I have a long journey of weight loss but with the encouragement of others it's…

I love :heart: the idea of April Fools day, I prefer shorter goals of 6 weeks, I find I can stick with it and it motivates me more. As for people not signing in, I agree that after 2 weeks they should be taken off the list. I am sure it takes you alot of time to add all these people and they don't post again. And if you…

I am also an exercise hater. We have the sports champion game- I love the gladiator and the volley ball game. They are very addictive and that is why I was thinking about getting the zumba video game, I am hoping to get motivated to exercise.:smile:

They give you a belt so you can put the playstation motion remote in the belt to be able to track your mouvements.

Great job! My next goal is 20 pounds, then it will be the 30 pounds. I won't lose it as fast as you did but I will get there!:happy:
