If it makes you feel any better I have been walking 10 miles a day for 2 weeks and have only lost 6 lbs. How often are you working out? I thought I read something about the first 20 min of a workout you only burn carbs and sugar after 20 minutes you start to burn fat. If your only walking and burning 100-200 calories I…

My dog forces me. If I'm not up by 6:30am she jumps on my bed and licks my face until I get up. I in turn thank her with a 6-8 mile walk. I used to get super bored walking that long and that far but I use it as work time and social time. I usually call my mom and gram and check in with them, I speak text a list of things…

We are expecting snow tomorrow so I am going to have a forced day off. Today I did an 8 mile hike with the pup. She's dead tired now so I think I'll do the next 4 on my own at another forest preserve.

Don't sit home all day get up and out of there....take a walk.... Go for a run. Change up your day and your meals if its turning you off so much that your wanting to quit before you even begin. I tried the Groundhog Day routine and it seems like I get bored and end up quitting so this time I'm changing it all up.…

Made Chia Chili for the first time and LOVE it. Basic chili recipe and then added a half cup of white chia seeds to it. Best chili ever so glad I made a bunch of this its going to be so easy to nuke and fill up on:)

Hi Amy- today is actually the 3rd day of the rest if my life ....lol I did a restart 3 days ago and so far so good:) Feel free to add me I'm OCD about logging and plan to start being active more since its summer break and my daughter has decided to elect herself as my fitness coach this summer.

I know this is going to sound really childish for a 35 year old woman to say but..... I'm so glad I didn't eat my feelings when my brother hurt my feelings today. Seems like my emotional eating is the number 1 cause for gaining 30lbs in the last year alone and today on day 3 of starting over I managed to just handle being…

I have a twisted success story for you. I was 195 8 years ago. Kicked my bit into gear 7.5 years ago and got down to an unbelievable 135 in 6 months. Managed to maintain the weight for about 2-3 years then I had hmmmm I guess we could call it a pizza slip day.....lol that pizza slip day continued for 3 years and here I am…

Yeah it takes work but it's totally worth it isn't it? Jules

Having friends on here is great when you have good weeks and bad. I went through a few rough days and MFP friends were totally there for me cheering me back on the ball. It also helps on lazy days kind of makes you get up and go when you see all of your friends burning so many calories :) feel free to add me if you like

I quit 2 years 1 month 4 days and 6 1/2 hours ago....lol All of my friends are smokers which made it 20 times more difficult but I did it. If the girl who chimney smoked for 19 years can quit anyone can..... if you would like to add me as a friend to keep on the straight and narrow feel free. 1st and foremost you need to…
