Thanks everyone for the encouragement! I feel amazing for the most part. Have to retrain the way I see myself. For the most part I think I am doing ok in that area.

what made you quit walking 8 to 10 miles? I know that this time around I cant give up on exercise. I think that is why we are both doing this again. I know I also cant go back to bad eating either. Good luck to you and I know you can do this again too!

I am 5'4" and have gone from 192 to 144 so when I started I was in a 16 jeans and 3X tops and 18/20 dresses US. I am now in size 6 jeans, medium tops bordering on small and size 12 dresses. :)

COLDS: Those suffering from common or severe colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey with 1/4 spoon cinnamon powder daily for three days. This process will cure most chronic cough, cold, and, clear the sinuses, and it's delicious too!

correction I just weighed in and lost another pounds so 46 since January. :)

45 pounds. I started fitness pal in February and have lost 40 pounds since then.

Ok I have a question for you then? Is it more impossible for the person who has lost weight eating 1200 calories than the person who lost weight eating 2000 calories to keep it off? If so why? Just an honest question because I really do want to maintain the weight I have lost. This isn't really a diet for me in my mind but…

I agree with you about girls eating low or way under 1200 calories..it scares me too! Maybe nobody has taught them about starvation mode. I think that people can give their opinion and advice absolutely but belittling a person shows to me how small the person belittling really is and doesn't really help anyone.

ha ha apparently I cant type today MFP not CMFP

*eating 1200

It is a little hard to misconstrue " I am going to bash my head in" because someone is talking again about eat 1200 calories.....I just think that if people don't like it or are sick of it shouldn't maybe say anything. Some people are new to CMFP and don't know countless other people may have asked the same questions. I…

You are right! Some people really do try to help out of concern but why do others say mean things to people who are really trying with the knowledge that they have. I am not talking about myself, I just read things from time to time and feel bad for people who think it is ok to say things to people in belittling ways. That…

Yep reading another post where someone wants to bash their head in because someone said that they are eating 1200 calories a day. Really people?? If that is all it takes to make one want to bash their head in.... their life seems like it might be a little boring and shallow.

I have lost 43 pounds so far. (I lost 5 before joining fitness pal). I eat 1200 a day plus at least 1/2 of the calories back on days I exercise. I take 2 days a week off of exercise and only eat 1200 on those days. I am not hungry. I am 4 pounds away from my goal and this has all happened in the last 7 months.

bump! thanks!

I will be 46 next month. I have recently lost 40 pounds and would be happy to encourage you! Send me a friend request.

What I have lost 40 pounds and went from a 16 to a 4/6. How can that be?

Welcome! Friend me if you would like! :smile:

I was 364 under what I could have ate with all my exercise. I ate Carne Asada Street taco's that were delicious and a fruit frittata and bacon for breakfast. Had a serving of 1/2 the fat Dreyer's Salted Caramel Pretzel ice cream and a Macaroon from Trader Joe's to celebrate the 4th. I was stuffed and completely satisfied.…

Years ago before I really liked things clean and tidy all the time I would watch T.V. and would get up during the commercials and clean like a crazy person. If you do this during every commercial segment you can get a lot done and you don't have to miss your show or shows. I would set a timer for the internet or other…

I do it all the time. It helps me to have a plan and stick with it!

I went on a diet with a friend some years back and she fell off the band wagon and I kept going. I lost 50 pounds. She worked for Baskin Robbins Ice Cream and she bought me the big 5 gallon tub that they scoop out of, of my favorite kind of ice cream. I didn't eat one bite of it. I let my husband and kids and friends all…
