So glad this was asked, Ive always wanted to go kayaking but nervous at same time. This is answering some of my question since Im a big gal too. I know I want a "open cockpit" as stated above but never thought about the length of kayak being a factor...any other advise?? Will be looking into this more soon since its time…

Ugh! First day logging for this and my pedometer app didnt work. I walked 30 mins equaling 1.6 miles...dont know the # of steps took :( I only know the miles b/c I walked same route all last summer and fall.

Are you with beachbody? Etc? If so count me out, if not with any product then count me in.

i had a MFP "friend" that wanted to start a facebook challenge. I thought great idea-so much easier to follow! I was smart enough not to actually join afer learning she was with beachbody. She un-friended me after I wouldnt join. Some "friend" she was!! Got a girl now may be same problem, she wants to do a facebook…

@Heybales and somenights: thanks for clarifying. I KNOW I'm not going to literally starve ( love food too much to ever let that happen lol) but I haven't been moving on scales so wasn't sure what to do b/c I'm pretty sure it's my calories. I have def cheated but compared to what I was eating I feel like I should still be…

Yes, but if its way below her TDEE couldnt it stall her? As in put her body in starvation and slow the loss? Im asking for my own benefit as well. Really need to know your TDEE I guess to answer for her better.

@findingamy: thanks for the advise, I hope to get up to more miles walking like you. Right now I'm walking 1.6 miles a day. It's all I have time for, I do it on my breaks at work. I'm trying to figure out a way to add more. I think right now I'm going to concentrate on logging better, Esp on weekends. I do good during week…

@davert123: scooby workshop shows I can eat 1900 calories and lose but that freaked me out and I set MFP to 1500. I'm questioning my accuracy for food, I have a feeling I'm underestimating portions but figured even if I was over 1500 I was still prob under the 1900 and would be okay....appparently I'm wrong. I started…

May I ask what your height is? Also did you just count calories? What was your daily calorie goal(s)? If you exercised, what did you do? I ask because I'm 237 now (was 267)and I can't seem to get scale moving lately. Your second before pic looks a lot like me so I'm hoping I can be you in a year! Lol

Thanks for posting! I bought several bags of frz fruit and got a smoothy recipe book and hated the book, everything had too many ingredients. So I got online and found some easier recipes but Im glad you said vanilla yogurt b/c some recipes Ive seen say "original" yogurt and I had no clue what that meant since I dont eat…

This is the first long thread that Ive read all the way through! LOVED reading ALL of it! I have no interesting facts about me so I must go get a life now.....but no dead bodies and no bows to the face!

Good timing for me to see this post. I lost 10# then an addtl 30# last year but hit a major plateu and at the same time my dad got sick and passed away so I did the same-gave up. Gained back 15#!! So now Ive started again. Im doing really good so far, its only been a couple weeks but I think the first couple are the…

I'm starting over too! I lost 40 and have gained 15-18 back! I'm so getting back on track and I need friends who log in on the news feed to help with motivation! Please please add me if you plan to communicate at least once a week :)
-
I agree this site is too quiet!!!! I was walking in Charleston too on my breaks but stopped over winter and need to start backl. I only get a half hour lunch so I take my 15 min breaks and go twice a day. About a mile each break. So need to get motivated tho, I dont like going alone and the people I work with was doing it…
-
Just sent you a friend request :) Im 41 and have been on here for over a year but not so much recently. Trying to get back on track now (once again)
-
I don't get the friends thing-can someone explain? Ive been on here a year but Im quiet lol Do you randomly private message each other for motivation or do you see each others public posts once your friends and then comment publicly? Im not good in real life small talk either-could you have guessed that?? lol
-
Do you get breaks? At my job I get two 15 min breaks a day and a 1/2 hour lunch, I didnt use to take my breaks but then decided if my coworkers can use it to smoke, talk on phone etc then I can use mine too! I use the breaks to be active, walk around block, clean house or even a short exercise video. For lunch I would use…

During the work week I eat 1 boiled egg, 1 piece of bacon and 1 wheat toast w 1tbsp butter and a diet coke.

Like some of the others I HAVE to have the…
