Trying it!

I am 52 and have lost 12 pounds although I have been at a stand still for the last few weeks. Ugh. It isn't easy. I have changed a lot of bad habits, increased my exercise, and I am trying to be more successful with portion controls.. I am happy to support anyone who needs some cheering on! Feel free to add me.

"I weigh 114 and I can't get those last 4 pounds off...." Delete. Done.

I eat it in the morning with raspberries and blueberries. Sprinkle some granola in it . Delicious!

Beautiful! Thanks for inspiring others!

During the course of the afternoon, I popped 6 chocolate truffles in my mouth. Then I wondered how many calories were in each one, so I flipped the package over and was stunned to realize I ate 1200 calories just as a snack. I think it then hit me how much I snack, binge, and overeat. I joined MFP the next week and haven't…

Possibly because you are too thin already? Maybe you need to be reflective on why it is that you can't be content with your body?

GREAT JOB! Your bravery at posting this will inspire many others! Thanks for sharing!

Sweet Potato, grilled chicken, veggie salad. I have learned to eat a sweet potato with just salt and pepper! who would have thought....

Can I join this awesome group? I dropped 11 and now two weeks have zipped by without a change. :angry: Goals for March: 1. Log in everything.....even candy. I am sucking on one now and I haven't logged it. 2. Work on squats, lunges, stair stepper, and leg lifts 3-4x weeks. My thighs are ridiculous. 3. Give my exercises a…

Chips and salsa. I can't have just a couple. If I a buy a bag I eat the entire bag. If I order them in a restaurant, I eat them all. RIDICULOUS lack of control!

Thanks. I dropped 11 pounds and now I am at a stand still... I think for me I grab a few of this and that and don't log it. I don't drink enough water. It has been 50 days and I have gotten sloppy. I need to get back to discipline. I appreciate you sharing! Thanks!

You go girl! Great start!

Beautiful! Way to inspire the rest of us!

You look like a new person! Way to go!

Feel free to add me! I started in January.

Bundle up and shovel! Great workout!

I have a sweet tooth as well. I sometimes buy Nips (candy) and one piece is 60 calories. Also, a cup of tea will help with the cravings. I sometimes pop a couple raspberries and blueberries to help. My strongest sugar craving is right after I eat dinner. RIDICULOUS because I am not even hungry!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your story. You will inspire others!

Thanks Ladies! I love the suggestions!! I have two pairs of jeans that I saved for when I am thin again. You know how you just hope for that someday, even though the years click by and I was never losing but gaining.....With the first 10 I have not gone down a size but my regular clothes just feel better. I think the next…

Well done! Thanks for inspiring others with your story!

Thanks for the link for skinnytaste.com from the last gal. That looks amazing!!!!! I have found that if I make a large quantity of something healthy it can stretch a few meals. I think in the long run it is cheaper. I rarely buy packaged processed foods which are usually more pricey and not healthy. Good luck!
