You can not control how others think and feel nor how they react. Just keep doing what you're doing for yourself. You can only voice your concerns for your sister starving herself but she is probably not ready to listen yet. Do not let anyone derail you just because you feel bad for them. If you feel comfortable talking to…

Sally, you are not alone. Many of us suffer from chronic pain or illness. What we have to do is work within our boundaries to improve ourselves. I too have an auto-immune disorder as well as chronic joint pain especially in my hips. I have a plate and many screws in my ankle as well but I have found a way. Eating healthy…

January came to an end and I am down a little over 10lbs. 7 1/2 of that since we started the challenge. Tomorrow is weigh in day for me but thought I would post my 1st month. Lets see what we can accomplish in February.

No matter what, as mentioned above, YOU know you did the work. If things wont sync when you are ready to post your daily food diary then just put a note in the notes section so you can always go back and see it

People do come and go including me. I have finally realized that even after I lose the weight if I stop coming here and posting and cheering that I will put it back on. So this time around, im going to stay here once I get the weight off. I will send you a friend request. Im here daily

You have done fantastic so far. Keep up the good work. I will send you a friend request. I am here everyday

Some fabulous losses. Keep it up everyone.

I think at times we all have felt that way. I too have put weight back on and im now back on it. As for exercise, it is different for everyone. What excites one bores another. I see all these people going to the gym and burning a lot of calories. I did the gym thing and thought to myself, this is got to be one of the most…

Nothing wrong with slow. As long as you are moving in the right direction. I have started over myself. Had done so well and then health issues got in the way and im back where I started. Attitude is everything so lets get this done

You are going to have to ask yourself... Why do I want this? Why is it so important? you are also going to have to have a nice self talk to tell yourself you are worth the effort. No journey is without bumps in the road but learning to deal with those bumps and how to go over them is what matters. We did not get out of…

First week was good. Down 2lbs. So im off and running. Just got my fitbit back up and running so im hoping to challenge myself to get more and more steps in each day. How is everyone else doing after a week?
-
You are not alone. One of the biggest hurdles I think that we have to over come is the thought that this is a diet and we will just lose the weight and then go back to "normal". In reality we have to accept that this is not a diet but a new way of life, a forever life. We can not lose and then go back to old habits. I just…

There are many reasons people binge unfortunately you will have to figure out why you did for yourself. Start by asking yourself questions like, what was going on that day? Were you stressed? Were you lonely? What was it you binged on and is it something you have been depriving yourself of? I find that I can not eliminate…

Hope everyone is doing good this week. Its been a good week for me so far. Keep up the good work
-
Question for the challenge.... Are we going to have a certain day to post our weights or does it matter?
-
Just for today 1/6 I will not munch after dinner (this is tough as I am a tired eater) I will workout twice I will log everything I eat
-
I have several Leslie Sansone Walk at home videos along with a kettle ball video and my AeroPilates machine. As mentioned, lots of free workout videos on youtube

Welcome to MFP. I too can use as man supportive people as I can find. I will send you a friend request
-
Does anyone know how to log a rebounder on MFP. I can not find it in the exercise category. Are you just logging it as cardio?
-
Oh I can fill those blanks in real well. I find having a support group really does help keep me focused as I have accountability to others. Feel free to add me on your friends list. That goes for anyone else as well
-
Just for today I will keep a positive attitude I will not nibble late night I will get my exercise in
-
I loved my fitbit until it broke. I am waiting on the new Charge HR to come out in stores. It really motivated me to get moving and to not sit still for to long. I did not use it for sleep as I already know I only sleep 4 or so hours a night and it bothers me to have something on my wrist when im sleeping. Which model did…

Welcome back. I too had a horrible 6 months. Put weight back on and now it is time to get with it. I know how to do it and what needs to be done, just have to get off my butt and quit making excuses for myself. Lets get it done
-
Im in as well. Have got to get this weight off. Im limited on the exercise due to hip joint pain but that will not stop me. Just have to find other ways to burn
-
Just for today I will get a full workout done on my AeroPilates Machine I will drink all my water I will log all of my bites, nibbles and snacks
-
Awesome job. You are a motivation to all of us. Will add you as a friend. I could use some good motivators in my life
