a nice compromise would be to have it out first thing in the morning and then put it away until the next day.

I can't believe this is almost over. I still have so far to go to goal :(

Way to go! Thanks for sharing your story. I was just thinking, wouldn't it be great to lose around 60 pounds after one year and here you did it! Congrats on being comfortable in your own skin.

I'll try it. I am currently 197. I tried it once before and it was very difficult. I am ready to try again.

I have a sugar addiction. The only way I curtail it is to not buy too many sugary sweets. When I go over my parents house I raid their candy dish and sweets cabinet which lets me know it is a good thing that I don't have them in the house. I know what you mean about the grocery store. I have to do "self talk" the entire…

Very inspirational. Thank you for sharing!

Congrats!! I hit that on Saturday and then the scale moved back up. Hopefully it will be back down this Saturday. Once you pass 200 you really don't want to go back. Keep it up!! Stay determined and before you know it you will be in the low 190s. We got this!

What great progress! You can already see a big change. Keep going you are doing an amazing job!

Good luck with hitting your summer goals. I finished challenge 17 pounds lighter than when I began which is awesome. I missed my goal by 3lbs, but I feel good about where I am now. Thanks everyone for the support

Last weigh in for this challenge is tomorrow. At the beginning it seemed like this challenge would last forever. Now we are the end. This was a great way for me to be help accountable, so thank you for setting it up. I just started a new challenge, and we are using the same spreadsheet because it really worked in holding…

Congratulations!! Your transformation is amazing and inspiring! Keep it up :)

Congratulations you look terrific!

It's great that you have experienced loss before because you know you can do it. I have only been on this weightloss journey for 2 months, so take my advice with a grain of salt. In 2 months, I have lost 19 pounds. I am not in onederland yet, so we some similarities, I want to lose 60 pounds as well. - I currently eat 1550…

Thank you for sharing! You look amazing. I appreciate that you also shared that it took five years. Your persistence is inspiring.

I did it! I have been working out for at least 30 minutes each day for 9 days straight and this week I loss 2.2!

You look marvelous! Kudos to you for sticking with it and continuing to push yourself!

That is helpful! I have not been motivated to exercise is over a year, but this week I have decided to make a change. Did 25 minutes of cardio yesterday (asthma kicked in) and 45 minutes of cardio today. My plan is to move for at least 30 minutes everyday for 100 days. Hopefully the scale will reflect my recent addition of…

Hello everyone, I am losing less than a pound a week. At this point I need to average 1.5 a week. For those that typically lose more than a pound when they weigh in, are you exercising? I think that is the next thing I need to add into my routine, ACTIVITY! It is hard to get motivated to move, but that may be what I need…

Well, I guess I need to google HIIT workouts then.

That is exactly what is was, the pressure of weighing in. I was actually going to do the opposite and start weighing myself more than once a week with hopes that would keep me on track, but your idea is more appealing because it sounds less stressful to me.

Thanks for the ideas and the possible reasons. It was emotional eating. In my mind, I know 8 pounds in two weeks is an accomplishment, but for some reason I just got bummed out at the scale and resorted to old habits. Thanks for offering your personal ups and downs with the scale. I also like the idea of getting a cup of…

All of your stories are inspirational. I love hearing that many of you were my size (size 18/20/2x) and are now able to fit into 6/8/10/12. I can't wait to get into size 12s and comfortably wear size L/XL shirts. My goal is to get back into dresses and tops at NY & Company. They sell tall pants so I love shopping there,…

I actually applaud you for catching it so quickly and for returning to your goal. Many times the downhill slide begins with one "treat" and it doesn't stop until all of the weight is gained back plus more. So kudos to you for coming back and getting back on track.

I joined WW this past weekend and started back up again with MFP. I prefer to log my food intake electronically and I have to pay to do that with WW so here I am at MFP. calculating my intake for free. I am hoping that paying for WW on a monthly basis will help me stay with it. In the past I would skip a meeting and then…

OK, I went through 12 pages and didn't find a twin yet. February 28th!!

You are definitely on fire! You look amazing! Congrats on all of your hard work. I started to day and was thinking maybe 30 pounds in 6 months was too ambitious, but you did 50 pounds in 6 months. Thank you for sharing your story. You are an inspiration to me and many more. Have a wonderful year!

Hi everyone, Instead of starting a new thread with the same topic, I am just going to reply to this one. I am new to MFP and I love it so far. Day 1 is almost over and I have calories to spare. My short term goal is to lose 30 pounds in 6 months. That's 5 pounds a month, does that sound manageable? I can use a lot of…
