Good job!!:flowerforyou:

I am so sorry you've had such a hard time. I don't have great words of wisdom like some of this people, but know that I am here if you ever need to vent. I find that coming on here takes up my time that I would normally want to sit and much. It keeps me busy and entertained and I realized I don't need food to do that for…

I do not like it for different reasons> You need to not be on a diet as much as changing how and what you eat. Atkins is really really hard to follow forever, and most people gain it all back. (Both my inlaws did). From what I've read it's not that healthy to eat that much meat all the time. I also don't think carbs are…

Yeah, a lot of doctors and hospitals use digital... So I really don't know.

Down 3 pounds, 17 to go! I might have to raise my goal a little bit if I keep losing so much so fast! I am just starting off and need to lose a lot so I think the first month will be fast and then it'll slooooow down.

I think this sounds amazing!!! I have lost 15 pounds and have 109 to go for my goal of 136. :) My real problem is that I have been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) for over 10 years now, and have come to realize that I will never be happy. I am learning how to be the highest functioning adult that I can be,…

Ok, so I do not want to "cheat" in that I don't want to ever go over my calorie limit (i'm sure they'll be times, but I just don't want to). But I've been thinking. What if I want pizza? Like if I went to pizza hut and only ate the salad and 2 slices of pizza (520 calories) and had water, and placed that into my food diary…

Thank you! My biggest problem is I see on the front page "If every day were like today you'd weight *** in 5 weeks" And when it's like a pound lower I'm like "oh, I don't need that snack!" But really, I have the calories so I should eat *something* just so I don't deprive myself. Thanks :)

I wouldn't even let myself eat one of the 100 calorie pack teddy grahams things, and I had enough "extra" calories for it. I am being too strict and I am afraid that's what'll kill me in the end :ohwell: However, my goal is to lose another 111 pounds on top of the 13 I have already lost, if you wanna be my friend add me :)…

So, I am always over my sugar I am allowed (well, not always, but nearly every day!) and looking at it it's because of fruit!!! Bananas, apples, watermelons and what not. Now I know that fruit sugar is different and all... but, what do you suggest? Say it's ok because it's "healthy sugar" or eat less fruit (even though I…

Count me in!!! Re-joined (oops) MFP weight: 260 Current weight: 248.4 (yes, I need to know the .whatever, LOL) Labor Day goal: 228 Pounds per week to lose: 2.2 Final weight goal: 136

Some rums are clear and have low cals too :wink: I *always* log my food in a day ahead, and haven't (yet) ventured from that list. Sometimes I might eat extra fruit or nuts just as a snack so I make sure I have about 200 cals under my daily limit for that wiggle room. Half the time I have a certain meal planned out all…

So, tonight my dad took me out to dinner. Now I LOOOOOVE Ruby Tuesdays and usually when I would go I would eat 4 Ruby mini burgers AND cheese fries (with bacon and sour cream), this alone is about 1,900 calories or so. So I read the menu ahead of time and checked the calories and info. I found what was one of the…

Righteous Brothers> "Unchained Melody"

It's on my list! Haha. I have it as 3 levels, depending on what kind we have that day.... lol.

Wow! You don't eat while working? That's the only time I eat really. Haha. I work 10 hour shifts. So I eat "dinner" at 7pm before work, then I eat again at 1am and get home by 7. Generally I don't eat any other time. However, since starting this diet this week it'll change (I've been off this week).

Well, you don't fit in with the myth because you work before/during this late night eating. Most people think that if you eat a snack at like 9pm and go to bed at 10pm you'll gain weight. It's because you're sleeping and not "doing anything". For us, (As I work midnights too) the myth would be if you eat at 6am before…

Pizza. MMM. And Cheese sticks. I LOVE mozzarella.

I know, I know, I should eat more, but the past 2 days I've eaten around 900 calories (along with 45 minutes of brisk walking each day) so I am really allowed 1700 or something (my set is 1270). Anyway, I know it's not good, but does this put me in "starvation mode"? I have a hard time not eating too much protein/carbs, so…

THANK YOU!!!!! My goal is 105 lbs. I started Less than a week ago Weight: 245 Height: 5'3" Currently as of this morning Weight: 236 I would like to weigh 140 by May 12th 2009. (My husbands and my 2 year anniversary). It'll probably be more like 160, but whatever!! :smile: 96 Pounds to go!!!!!!

I need to lose 80 lbs to no longer be considered obese, but would like to lose a total of 100 so I can be "Normal" haha. Am I the only one working on major weight loss? I just started, but, I feel like I can actually do it this time. In the 7 years I dated my husband (married 7 months ago) I gained 80 pounds! I wish I had…
