Yes please!! Need the accountability amongst friends!

Yeah, when it gets cold up here in DFW I can feel it for sure! I did my first real major test last night in a 2 mile walk around my neighborhood.. Never really ran beforehand, but I decided to give it a test as I was going back up the driveway to get into the house.. Felt good, and for a 2 mile walk no noticable swelling…

Hello, I'm James, restarting my journey to lose over 100 pounds, just trying to get myself back on the horse.. I took my first steps today, literally a 10 minute walk while on my lunch break. I'm wanting to lose as much as I can before my wedding this summer, while still healing from a severely broken ankle from Last…

I'm in the same boat, broke my ankle severely on the 4th of July, never felt strong enough to test the ankle on a treadmill, I did some in pt but let's be honest, walking at 1.5 mph on the treadmill isn't exactly testing... id love support as I continue to recover... the worst thing is the swelling that continues and will…

I need more friends to help keep me on track, I'm starting over wanting to lose weight to get healthier for the love of my life, and to be healthier period! Help keep me motivated and I will help you too!

Thanks Y'all!

blame google, I was searching before going to work and found the post, I figured it would be closed, so sue me for not knowing.. Gosh!

I personally think it depends on the particular gym. if it has the equipment you need then you'll be great! The one I go to is okay, but the good news is there's another one literally not more than 10 minutes down the road that I might try

I actually said that to the trainer last night, Then he comes back with well what could you afford.. Honestly I can't afford the training packages PERIOD, I mean your paying over $1 a minute for the trainers... just 1 session costs the same amount as 3 MONTHS in membership dues! Thank GOD he didn't force me into buying…

would LOVE Friends!!! Please add, I need the support and strength from fellow MFP'ers to keep me going at times!

Thank goodness I saw this when I did this morning.. I started with a trainer at 24 last night as an intro deal and not more than 5 minutes after nearly passing out because his workout was that intense and pushed me to my limit (a good workout yes, just intense) he goes and shows me the other options.. I was like Look I've…

Howdy! I just moved to far NE Benbrook a couple of months ago... I love it here :) hoping to meet more people from the metroplex!

Bump

a thought provoking 7.. seriously you look very deep in thought in your pic, looks nice though

Thanks for the friendly motherly advice.. not sure exactly how I can get more calories without sabotaging myself though, that seems to be my problem. Not sure what to do really.. I know what part of my problem was, I was under a lot of stress with classes and such and ate a few too many pizzas and chinese dinners, when you…

Started back in January, but I've got more like 150 to lose... oh and i'm 26, going on 27 at the end of May... would be pleased to add and help motivate! :)

Youtube has some REALLY intense gym free (and equipment free) workouts that really kick your *kitten*. Also walking, LOTS of walking! besides it'll be summer, should have fun and relax and enjoy outside, also try to control the kitchen as much as you can, even if you have to sneak out to the grocery store yourself and get…

26, feel free to add! Trying to make the rest of my 20's as awesome as it can be

close, but a bit over.. I'll be 27 at the end of next month

Thoughtful! Course I knew that already Lydia :)

yeah gotta be honest, especially as of late I'd avoid the Landing... ESPECIALLY after dark (2 murders in 2 weekends... yeah thanks but no thanks) Pappys is WELL worth the wait you'll have for it, Second on Crown Candy (go for the BLT, it's LOADDDDEDDDDD in Bacon). Depending on where your staying (downtown, West county,…

yep gotta wash it down with an ice cold bud or a great local brew called Schafly. With the weekend wx forecast not sure the wineries out in St Charles county would be a good idea (I swear it's like mother nature wants to hang on to winter or something this year) but there's a lot of good food options around STL

oh one more thing, toasted ravoli.... it's the St Louis treat!

for Italian you GOTTA go to the hill, if you want BBQ you need to go to Pappys but get there early as food sells out quickly. and in terms of pizza, just order an IMO's, st louis style thin crust with provel cheese... oh it's yummy

I log in daily, in fact I'm normally on here more often than I am facebook... i LOVE to motivate others, as well as get the motivation from people as well... Feel free to add me everyone!

request sent... also anybody else can add me as well :)

some of them have, some of them have gained a lot of it back actually... I wish they would give us more of the nutrition advice that they give the contestants, Yeah they exercise for hours at the ranch, but are highly supervised with doctors and other trainers as well, if you ask me a lot of the weight loss is water, but…

I need to lose 150. but already lost 35 with losing 10 before I started on MFP :D add me, I need the help and the support
