Mine isn't working either. I've been back 71 days and not working. I've lost 20 lbs. dammit! LOL!

:( I am so sorry. I just posted something loooong about this. I find that I will be consistent for 6 months or so but then after losing a good amount of weight I just cave. I hate it. It's just hard. I think we need to make it our priority it's just hard. :(

Thank you so much. I felt so stinking happy all day. 🎉🎉🎉

You got this!!! You are so close to reaching that goal.

Thank you ladies! I will log the active calories then. @Talan79 thanks for the advice. Seems so dang complicated...I'm getting to that old age where I need my kids to mess with my gadgets. LOL!!

Got an Apple watch for mothers day and just now starting back up on MFP and am having such a hard time figuring everything out and getting everything to work in unison. I think I'm just going to take it off my watch and add the calories myself. Now I'm just wondering if I should add all the active calories from my workout…

I had issues all day yesterday and today as well. Updated weight and added food and all that good stuff and nothing is there. Just errors.

I guess this isn't a pet peeve but it saddens me when very fit people stare down people who are there trying to become healthier versions of themselves. :'(

Thank you all for the suggestions! I see a few that I like and are in my price range as well and on top of that on sale!!! Those Bose headphones I’ve seen and they are nice but still a bit on the higher end and I’m on a budget.

I am interested too!!! I am a short one at 5’2 and I’m at my all time high of 227! I’d like to get down to 150 so I need to roughly lose about 80 lbs if not more. Will the group be on here or on Facebook?

Thank you all for your replies. I have a lot of weight to lose (about 70 lbs) and per some folks I should be doing a lot of cardio but I managed to lose 17 lbs in about 13 weeks at the beginning of the year with weightlifting and little cardio and clean eating but I wasn't tracking my calories intake at all. This time…

I think this makes sense because otherwise I'd be crazy starving specially when I would burn 700+ calories.

Thank you so much for your reply. I am going to see how it goes for the next couple of weeks. I won't purposely eat back my calories burned but I will do my best not to try to go over either. I have yet to figure out the TDEE but will be doing my research on that. Thanks so much!

Yes. I am using the MFP calorie calculator. Thank you.

I am an emotional eater so if I am feeling anxious for example I just start eating. What I try to do to not overeat so I have water around me at all times so I can chug here and there. I used to chew gum especially when I was cooking otherwise I'd just nibble on things while cooking and that's a big no-no for me. Now I…

Hi there! Add me. I am not that great about logging my food but hopefully having a diary looker will help?

-10 would be a dream come true! I am aiming for 150 but at the moment I am trying to get as close as possible to 160 by my bday....12/21! Currently at 174.6.

GREAT JOB monstro!!!! Losing weight sure does feel a so good even if we aren't where we want to be. Can you just imagine how much better we will feel when we reach our goals?!

Haha!!! I love this! I have lost 40 lbs and I too find myself discovering things. Like the bottom of my sternum. I don' think I ever knew it "existed". I actually got quite scared when I felt the bump so I went to the doctor and he laughed and said it was perfectly normal. LOL! it's weird to see the lining of my jaw, how…

Wowza!!! You are doing amazing! Thanks for sharing!

I have never paid attention to people's shoes at the gym but I will from now on. I am new to lifting as well so I will look into peoples suggetions. This might be the perfect time to get me my GREEN Converse that I've always wanted. LOL!!!

Congrats!!! You are on the right path! You have taken the first step to well-being. YOU ARE IN CONTROL! You can do this!

WOW!!! You lost all that in about 5 months?!!! You look AMAZING!!! What workouts did you do?

Oh CONGRATS!!!! Such a great accoplishment! Your hard work and dedication is paying off! I can't wait till I'm there with you. I am a handfull of pounds shy of being in wonderland. Keep up the greatness!

I had lost 60 and gained 50 back after I left MFP and feel back into my old ways. I am again on a quest to lose 60 again to get down to my ultimate goal weight! Lets do this ladies!!!! Feeling pumped!

Hi there. You have taken the first step in a long journey and that is wonderful. I would suggest you weigh 1x/week. I used to do it everyday and I would get discouraged so just this year I started weighing 1x/week. I am dying to jump on that scale but I'm waiting till next monday. :) Although you can do your walking just…

Yes, that I have currently started Jamie Eason's LiveFit. This morning all I did was 7 minutes on the elliptical before the weights and 7 minutes after the weights and that was it. Her plan does incorporate cardio around week 3 or 4 I can't remember which.

Thank you all for your responses. The trainer was so nice throughout the training up until she whipped out the contract and then she quickly changed her attitude with me. I will definitely incorporate cardio into my routine and on my days off going forward and I will also watch what I eat trying my best to stick to fresh…

Thank you all for the great responses. I started running about 2 years ago with the C25K and loved it. But after that I didn't do it any longer due to lack of discipline/laziness. I unfortunately put on weight and feel horrible so I have again started to lose weight and I once again have completed the C25K program so I…
