Outstanding, congrats!!:smile:

I go thru this quite often(wish I didn't), but I do...you'll get to the place where you'll tell yourself to just get the hell up and do it and the rush get after your workout will make you feel soooo much better but sometimes IT happens again..we can't control that darned TOM and the crap that comes with it so just be…

Yay, on time and the gain is finally starting to come off...154.0!!! Woohoooo!!!:bigsmile:

Oops, not late, but early - :ohwell: I'll weigh in again tomorrow and hopefully it will be better!:huh:

Late again, but been fluctuating like CRAZY!!! 155.4:grumble:

I'm so glad to see you back and I'm proud of you for making this decision.:happy: I just want you to know that we all(or maybe just me, lol):grumble: go thru times of getting off track(life happens), but as long as we are willing to stick to it or at least 'start over', you can be successful.:wink: I have learned that…

You're looking great and doing an excellent job! You definitely have the right mindset - one day at a time because slow and steady really does win the race...congrats on your awesome progress and keep up the great work, YOU GO GIRL!!!:flowerforyou:

I am definitely in July's challenge because last month really sucked for me,:sad: btw my ending weight for June is 156.0 - UGHHH!!!! Anyway I'm in and hopefully things will go a lot better than last time so here goes!:tongue: Goal wgt for Aug. 1st - 150.0 July 1st - (starting wgt) July 8th: July 15th: July 22nd: July 29th:…

Sorry I'm late, PC went kurplunk on me::explode: and I'm up again this week at 155.0:sad: ...hopefully everything will keep working this week including me!! :huh: Let's rock it out guys!!!:tongue:

I am the exact same way...started out not eating enough at all and now I'm just ravenous all the time except for those special occasions when I don't have an appetite:noway: , but for the most part I'm HONGRY too, lol...I have tried eating all of the healthy stuff that everyone says is supposed to fill you up but I only…

Up this week...153.2, better luck next week!!:cry:

Okay, one thing that we all have to do during this journey is to be honest and you have done that so CONGRATS!!! Now, for me it's plain and simple...YOU WORK YOUR *kitten* OFF ALL THE TIME, and I really don't think that you can reverse ALL OF THE HARD WORK THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY DONE with one day of enjoying some pizza…

Wonderful post! Every word is true and thanks - talk about motivation! You did it dude!!!:flowerforyou:

Seems we are in the same boat although for different reasons...I'm not on any meds so I'm not sure if yours are the culprit in this situation. For the past cpl weeks, I've had good losses at weigh in and then suddenly, I'm up 7lbs - WTF??? :noway: I have enjoyed my usual 'eat what you want to' weekend and actually stayed…

Congrats on the 100lbs...I agree with the others on the fat percentage scale...it helps and I also agree about doing something different with the calories because your body may well used to the 'usual', so the cleansing thing you were talking about sounds good and zig-zagging may help also...I've had a slight gain and…

I think that it all depends on how you're gonna feel afterwards...if you go and enjoy yourself and maybe have a slight gain after and end up beating yourself up, getting discouraged and wanting to quit, go to subway,:angry: BUT if you take this opportunity to enjoy hubby and the events that you're going to and want to…

So sorry about how you felt! If it makes you feel any better, I'M THE SAME WAY!!! Although I'm a homeschooling mom, I have avoided going to any of those functions (although I do go to the zoo, restaurants and other places), because I feel out of place in public, not JUST because of my weight, but because I seriously don't…

Hi...I guess different tactics work for different ppl because in order for me to lose my scheduled 1lb per week, I HAVE to 'net' 1200-1390 calories...I think that is was some time near the end of last month that I upped my calorie goal to 1806(got it from caloriesperhour.com), but I make sure that I burn enough calories to…

Congrats on all of your accomplishments - they are many and they are awesome...you should be very proud of yourself and you have come to the right place to reach your goals. My mini-goal is to get down to 140 and I'm almost there, but it seems to be getting a little more difficult for me. I don't figure skate(I think that…

You totally freaking worked it girl...congrats! Your next level plan sounds wonderful and thanks for posting because I haven't gotten to my goal weight yet but I was wondering what I should do once I do get there and you have given me the answer. KUDOS to you on your awesome success, you look fabulous!!!:flowerforyou:…

Awesome!!!!:flowerforyou: Like the others said, how did you work that belly...I've lost 17lbs and mine is still way out there!:sad:

Boy am I glad I found THIS thread, lol! I have the exact same issues and if a beeraholic can do this, so can you! There will be some trial and error on this journey and things may not happen as quickly as you think they should but the main thing is that IT DOES HAPPEN and you CAN do this successfully without having to…

That's what I do! Once a week, I'll allow myself to eat some takeout. My husband eats takeout often, but he's in pretty good shape and not overweight I guess because he's so active. If he does gain a cpl of lbs, all he has to do is a few crunches, lifts, and mow the lawn or something and his lbs melt off...I guess I'm a…

When I first started on MFP, the first 2 weeks, I lost about 8lbs by following a specific meal plan and no exercise. Week 3, I started doing like 5min of exercise(had to make myself get started because I HATED exercise) and later worked my way up to doing regular workouts...by week 4-5, I hit a plateau that lasted about…

You have definitely come to the right place... we are similar in that in a specific situation(like pregnancy or right afterwards) I was able to get the weight off, but was never able to KEEP it off until I came here...even though things don't always go as I wish or as quickly as I may want them to, IT DOES HAPPEN! I have…

Yes...what oyvonnee said!! You have BEEN doing this, you can STILL do this, and you can CONTINUE to do this no matter what changes may come, it's all a part of the journey and you have already done an awesome job thus far, so maybe it's time for a little bout with trial and error so you can find the right groove...in the…

I think that you really have everything in perspective now by not rushing yourself...your goals are right on the money and you can actually ENJOY the journey this time! Welcome back and good luck...feel free to add me if you like, you can do this and yes you can keep it up - you quit smoking for goodness sake, WOW!!! If…

Vodka with crystal light or great value lemonade drink mix...around 55-70 cals a pop.:drinker:

Weigh in for June 8 is 152.8, yaaaaaay! Hope the number keep going DOWN this time...good luck challengers!!!:noway:

Hiya!!:bigsmile:
