Ormond Beach, Florida (next door neighbor to Daytona Beach)! We have the big race coming next week!!!

Larabar has a chocolate chip cookie dough and it is nautral sugar and delicious!

I know what you mean. I have been here for about 48 days and I have never been this loyal to any weight loss plan. I love the friends and the support and just when I need it the motivation!!! Best wishes to you on this journey!

Well for starters you are in the right place. When you get the time click on some the photos of the people in the community! It is so amazing and I can tell you that MFP has saved some lives.

Hi Jeremy and best wishes! This is a great website. I am so blessed to have found it!!! I hope that you enjoy the great support and inspiration that you will find here!! Happy journey!

hi and welcome! Gosh I am the worst person to give receipes, I am not a great cook not even for snacks. I do wish you the best and hope that you like it here as well as I do!!!! Best wishes on your new journey!

Just watch and enjoy. I like to have a "free" meal once in a while. I do not do it more than once a week but it makes my body and my mind very happy! I hope that you have a great time!

HI! Two things really work well for me, one is put down your fork in between my bites and two drink plenty of water with my meal. I have the problem of after about a week or two, even if I am losing weight, that I want to just go off and eat something that "I really want" Well, if I do that I am done. I am and all or none…

Way to go!!! what an inpiration for us!!! You deserve every bit of that smile!!!! Best wishes!!

Hi! I go over my sugar every single day for 44 days. I will tell you that it is 75% less than what my body was getting on a everyday basis, so I figure that even though I am going over 30 or 40 sugars I am still doing a great job. The sugar that I eat now is from fruit and veggie so I see this as a + and not a bad thing!…

Hi Pete and welcome! You will love it here! This is a great place if you are serious about weight loss. All of the support and inspiration that one could need! Best wishes on your new journey!

Hi and welcome! This is a GREAT place to be. I wasnot a great cook either and my son had most likely the meals that you had. But let me tell you that he is one of the best and healtiest cooks around. I just did not like to cook because I was ALWAYS on a diet. I thought and still fight with the thought that food is bad for…

ANYTHING that sounds to good to be true.....is! It will not take a degree to understand that! Monitor what goes in and what comes out! (calorie counting I mean) I am walking proof that all of the "guick" fixes are just that "guick". That is that they only last while your starve or deprive yourself! It is time to stop all…

Best of luck and you are in the right place for what you need!

Welcome! This is a great place to be! I have been here for 43 days and I love it here. I was one of those that would get started and then just stop! Losing weight, clothes getting a little more lose and I would just stop! Here you get the support, motvation and all of the inpsiration that you will ever need. Total…

have The Firm DVD set. They are all great workouts! How much you burn is dependent on a lot of different things, age, weight, intensity, etc. The best way to find out what you're burning is to use a heart rate monitor that shows calories burned.…

Feel better soon!

I understand. I share the site with anyone who might benefit and seems interested. But I am a little "quirky" about who I add as "friends." My "rules" are on my profile -- most read 'em before they ask, but not all. I'm here to help other folks -- not to use this site as another Facebook. And thankfully, there are a lot of…

Hi! I have a broken metor that does not tell me when I have had enough. When I would eat one candy bar my brain would beg for another and another and I am sure you can see where this is going. There seems to be something about sugar and flour that puts my brain in a numb mode and the stop light does not work. I mean that I…

Welcome to MFP

I am going to Sports authority today to look for one. I googled and found that new balance makes one for right bout 40.00 and it does just about everything! Good luck!

If that is what it says, may be you should speak to a doctor about it! Best wishes!

THAT sounds like to much to me, but where did you get that total?

Hi and welcome! Start slow. That program is really tough and it could get you discouraged! Best wishes!

AMAZING ! So very happy for you. Thank you for the motivation and inspiration!!! Best wishes to you on the rest of your journey!

WOW! You are amazing! Great job and congrats on the new you!!!!
