I have to say it is way more about what you are eating and how much than about exercise a lot of the time. The first year I tried to loose weight by going to fitness center daily and working out for over an hour most everyday and nothing changed in the weight department until I found my fitness pal and started logging and…

Well just thought I would check in with everyone. I have been maintaining really in a range of 126 and 125. I weigh everyday but have really slacked off on the calorie tracking (at least writing it down or recording). I did realize when I weighed this morning that a fast day occassionally maybe a good thing (yesterday I…

I also just ordered weight lifting for women. Looking forward to doing some toning. I found I have gotten kind of bored with cardio. At my gym I do the cross trainer, the elliptical (very similar to cross trainer) and treadmill. They only have a recumbant bike for bikes, which I really don't like. So I too am looking…

Yes there are days I don't log. Or even periods of time depending on. But like epoint I feel more in control at least weighing everyday and I know there are fluctuations but they don't bother me. I just want to make sure I'm not getting way off the grid. I didn't weigh myself for a long time before mfp and ended up 45…

Yep my gym too. I don't like it at all. Where I go it is very small place so I feel like I am running into people no matter what I am doing and there are a limited number of machines so you have to hope and pray there is one open or someone is almost done when you get there. Can't wait til March it will definitely be…

So far so good. I have been able to maintain (started end of September). I was hoping to maybe loose a couple more pounds and to be able to keep my high range at 125 but it seems I don't really have a range I am generally at 125 everyday occassionally it will go to 124 so I am happy with that. It is winter around here so…

Yes I like the one above me have limited options. But I get internet thru my phone line at about $30 a month and my dish tv basic (no dvr or extras I am cheapskate) for $60.

It is hard to guess without a face. So I will just throw a number out there 25??

I accomplished about 1/2 my goals: log all food did that but had a piece of chocolate after that I may go back and log today good food choices yes and no most good a couple not so good but stayed within my calorie alotment I did my income for taxes but didn't get mileage done I did not do my menu for the week Goals for…

I am 40 yrs old 5' 2" and started mfp about a year ago at 169lbs. Made it to 125lb in Sept. That was my initial goal but now my goal has changed to a range I have been staying in the 124-128 range but would like to stay in the 120-125 range but I am happy with where I am just want to tone some.

I actually have a water bottle that holds 28 oz so 3 glasses. One of the first things I do in the morning is fill my water bottle and finish the whole bottle before breakfast while getting ready for the day. I refill then and and try a finsh the second bottle by 12:00. I also drink water for meals. But it isn't too hard to…

I'm in for now (not always good with the daily stuff). I am 40 year old (happily married 21 years) mother of 21 year old, 19 year old, and 17 year old. I joined mfp last January and made it to my goal weight of 125lbs the end of Sept. Since then I have not been good about logging and feel like I have been making horrible…

I guess I am going to go out on a limb and say if you are making healthy choices and truely are not hungry and only eat 1000 calories some days it wont be a big deal maybe your metabolism just isn't what the 1200 calorie norm is. I personally can't get by without 1300 generally if I eat less I am crabby and hungry. I also…

Like the others said I also go with fajitas but I only eat the chicken and peppers and onions don't even use wraps personally and no sour cream I still do cheese though :wink:

No you are not wrong. I understand where you are coming from in a sense I have that problem with my husband but I have to live with him. He brings stuff in the house all the time and if I have a bite he makes comments about my "diet" I tell him not to bring it in and that is why I don't buy certain things and he just keeps…

It has been hard for me to keep counting my calories like I was. I find myself being lazy and having a bite of this and a bite of that and I am afraid if I don't watch it I will end up going back to my old ways of eating too much:noway: I have been maintaining since September 2011. Lately I have been in such a snacking…

I was suching for maintenance threads yesterday and stumbled upon this group. I have been in maintenence since the end of Sept 2011 so not real long. I try to stay in the range of 120-125. Generally I am at the higher end which hasn't been a real big deal for me because my goal was 125lbs. I am getting a little concerned…

For me personally I got crabby and was hungry all the time when my calories were at 1200 and I didn't change in my weight for a week at one time before that I went down in weight every week (amount varied). When it recalculated to 1200 I was ok for a week or two but then could tell I wasn't getting enough so I upped it a…

I think it is really about what works for you. I have been maintaining for about 2 months so not real long and I still check in regularly. I am one of those people that weighs myself everyday but I also do not get freaked out about a couple pounds either way. I know there will be fluctuation day to day and I am ok with…

can't wait to make thins:)

bump I may want to pass this on so I better bookmark it:)

I am at the goal weight I set in January for myself so I am ready for a challenge like this. Starting with lunges today.:smile: Thanks for the cool challenge:happy:

Yes I will still be recording most days. I know I will probably need to so I stay on track. I will be weighing myself regularly too so I know if I would start creeping up then I know I need to crack down more on choices if I have been slacking. I keep thinking I should just do it the thing is at maintenance I will probably…

When my daughter was on the high school dance team she was told for bouncing jumping dance moves and kicking they should get shoes made for volleyball. I am not sure how zumba compares to "dance".

Bump...I would also like to see some suggestions on how to prepare differrent kinds of fish.
