Hi I'm 29, sw 240 gw 150, 5'4". I'm going to send a friend request ☺

I've been running as soon as I wake up. I change out of pajamas, drink a class of water and go. I don't eat anything beforehand. Usually when I get back I have a half or a whole protein bar (before showering) depending how hungry as I don't usually eat breakfast until I get to work about an hour later. I also make sure to…

My weight loss progress looks sort of similar to LadyPakal. My starting weight was 265. Month 1- lost 13.6 lbs Month 2- lost 6.4 lbs Month 3- lost 7.8 lbs Month 4- lost 8.4 lbs I try to aim for 10 pounds a month but as I get closer to 200 pounds that's going to be less and less likely. I'm also finally starting to accept…

I don't think that website is accurate. I put in my measurements and selected "medium" and it said I would burn 829, which is way high compared to what my Body Media says.

My bodymedia armband usually says I burn between 600 and 650 calories of an hour of high intensity Zumba but I'm also 232 pounds so it might be lower for someone weighing less.

So I started out today pretty down on myself. I've been doing MFP (and just being healthier in general) for 90 days now, which I should be really proud of but instead I was focusing on the fact that I wanted to be down 30 pounds at 90 days and I'm still about a pound away. Definitely the wrong mindset, I know. Anyway, I'm…

Tnsummer- Could you post the recipe on here? I'd definitely like to try it as well.

Stephanie, I definitely agree with the working out thing. I think that's another thing that makes this time around different for me. I've been doing Zumba 3-4 times a week and at least walking the other days. I also agree with what you're saying about your core. It's definitely taking me a while to build those stomach…

Hi everyone! This looks like a great group of people who are really involved in the program. I've been on MFP for almost 90 days and I've lost about 28 pounds so far. It's been surprisingly easy...I've tried numerous things before, including weight watchers, and have never been able to lose more than 15 pounds before going…

Just a few months ago a previous boss of mine died of a heart attack. She was 30. Yes, she was overweight and actually might have weighed a little less than me. I have a 9 month old daughter so I desperately want to be around for a long time to see her grow up. I also want to be a good role model for her so lives a long,…

Zumba is addicting! I'm sure the dvds are great but nothing compares to going to a class with a great instructor. It takes a few times to learn the moves but after that it's so much fun. I've been going 3 to 4 days a week for about 2 months now. I've lost 27 pounds so far just from using mfp and doing zumba!

I'm a little older (26) and a little heavier (251) but I'll be your twin if you'd like!
