I gained a lot of weight going on medications.Although I recognizedthis, I didn't do much to offset it. Honestly I thought it meant I had to be this weight...but it does not! I joined mfp awhile back but was never really consistent nor did I lose weight. Now I'm determinef to get this weight off of me---especially after…

Ok...I'm SO goal oriented. Seriously, I have made lists and lists since age 11!! My 2014 goals: *lose 42 lbs to bring me to 140at 5'5" *exercise regularly...at least 5 days per week *be able to do 10real pushups in a row *fit into a size 6/8 *publish my book *pay off some school debt *do meaningful work and volunteer work…

great goals!! I do not think those goals are unrealustic. 1) get an audio cd for language and listenon way to work 2) try mindfulness exercise I have a book called the success principles..it's really cool. well good luck

I'm on day 5!! (I skipped two days though so I will tack those on at the end) Let me know what you think of it!

Wow.thats what I want!! I love the pics!!

My dr is actually very good...just didn't seem to get what to take me onand off. I wanted to take Wellbutrin but I have a history of seizures, boo. He even tried me on topamax to stop binge eating but it didn't work. I'm hopingto get off meds this year.. in the meantime do I throw out all mycute clothes I MIGHT fit in?!

Thanks for all the responses! I am on : cymbalta clozapine ritalin abilify prozac clonazepam and birth control..yaz whew. Seems like a lot I know...I was quite ill. I was anorexic starting those meds recovered fine but have gone from 90to182lbs...my high weight, now considered obese. I dont mind the number as much as the…

Amazing! I will post before and afters when im done the jillian micheals 30day shred...though I worry it won't do much

Aaaaand from my above post you would think I'm already drunk..haha Just useless phone typing!

LOL. I have the tendency to want crunchy stuff after drinking too..no hubby to carch me though! I am plannin on smirnoff ice lught..80 cals each...but takes me a long ti mm e to feel it! Haha

I think I have IBS, so I started taking Acidophilous (NO idea how to spell that).. it is really helpful for normal bowel movements and bloating. Try it! Also, remember, if you are eliminating a group of food do it one at a time to truly understand what is disagreeing with you. I think it takes a couple weeks for something…

Oh yay this is encouraging! I want to feel better too! lol As for the occasional diet soda, okay might do so!

11/03: 20 minute walk, 10 minute strength training 11/04: 30 minute walk, 30 minute Jillian Michaels Body Shred Total so far: 2.5 hours

Ohhh boy. Here is my story: I am 5'5" Anorexic and very sick 5lbs higher than my LW of 90lbs. I do not wish that upon anyone!!! Recovered 135ish (IDEAL!) Creeping up at Uni around 160ish My worst pic ever- creeping towards 190 I bet but didn't weigh then Me recently between 178-181 Can't wait to lose this the healthy way!!!

Ugh I wish sometimes that I could not count weekends but...well, I gotta see the truth and how it affects all my efforts!

WEIGHT TO GO PEOPLE, I mean, WAY TO GO PEOPLE! You are all doing so fantastic, I wish I hadn't fallen off the wagon mid challenge.. So my goal is now only to lose 10lbs by Christmas. Boo hoo. But I do hope I make it! Weigh in tomorrow :)

Oh Sounds like a good challenge :) This had better keep me accountable! 11/01- 1hr of Zumba Wii

Hey there! I am in a slump too and just you commenting on my ten logged days in a row really made me feel accountable and like people CARE! Very nice. Location: Whitby, Ontario, Canada age: 27 Current Weight- 180.8 Height: 5'5" mini goal- lose 5lbs in November so to 175 Big goal- lose 20lbs by Valentines Day so to 155 Big…

Yay, a fitness party thread :D Good luck with tomorrow everyone! I got my gym bag packed, my lunch made, my alarm set- now it is time for SLEEP> and yes I realize it's 8pm. lol.

I am SO far behind!!! I will never get to my goal in 10 weeks. BUT I'm gonna try harder now! Starting tomorrow, I am using my portion control plate and going to the gym most days. Even though my doctor basically told me I might not lose any weight because the med I am on alters my metabolism. Real fricken great! NSV Some…

You are all doing really awesome! Way to go! I have been too scared to look at the scale :( I have been a total slob all week, just eating whatever I feel like! (AKA 7 cookies?!) I hope to really kick it into gear now and get back on track TODAY even if I did eat 7 cookies! You guys really motivate me!

I am going to be MIA I think- on vacation woohoo!

178.6 lost 3.4 lbs NSV: no French fries :) Weigh in again Friday and hope to be at 177.6!

I'm not abandoning MFP- but I won't weigh in til Monday. Long story but the gist- I am at home sick :( Boo hoo, Keep up the great work everyone!

WOW! The calories you ingest when drinking. Drinking itself is bad calorie-wise..add in a potluck appetizer= :ohwell: :drinker:

I was so disappointed yesterday when I saw the scale and I avoided MFP- silly, right. SW 180.8 CW: 182 NSV: Someone asked if I lost weight 22lbs to go by Christmas.

Uggh so here it is. My current self!

My go-to meal is: veggie chickN strips fried in olive oil on top of a ceasar salad! Even if I eat all the chickN strips it is 250 for them. Then you can make your salad as lite as you want. I'm so lazy. LOL.

1400-1500 calories is GREAT! Especially if you are exercising too! Where do you work? BOO on the weekends! (At least mine are through the week! lol)

You would THINK it would be when I stepped on the scale and saw my highest weight....but instead I said F trying and went and ate poutine. lol. The last straw has been a series of seeing photos that look horrendous, bigger pant size etc.
