Hey Acacia!!! Same thing happened here. I was down 46 lbs and now im down only 25. :( But thanks to John below and his very encouraging message Ive been back on track since last week. WE CAN DO THIS!!! Welcome back !!! Hang in there!!!

Katie that is hilarious!!! What is it about 336? We need to stop letting our minds get the better of us i guess. my goal for the month of June is to be down to 326. I need to get out of these 330s!!! Thanks for the support dear!

339

As everyone else has said..STRETCH! Also, I find rolling a can of food, I use green beans, under your foot back and forth helps after exercise. You could use a tennis ball too. :)

SW: 346 CW: 345 I haven't ate Mcdonalds in 90 days. Why I choose to eat it the day before the first weigh-in? Oh well, new week, new goals..moving forward. Have a great (mcdonalds free) week everybody! :)

Hi everyone, I love a good competition!!!! Starting weight 346.

Yuummmmmmmm! That sounds delicious!

Hey Nicole, try Sparkrecipes.com They have a lot of great ideas for healthy desserts , foods, etc. If you find a way to make strawberry shortcake in a healthy way, let me know, its one of my favs! Ive had it on angelfood cake instead of short cake with fatfree whip cream and it was just as delicious! Good luck dear! :)

I love this post! I just accomplished my first NSV last week. I fit into a pair of jeans that I had bought last year that were way to small for me, and they are even getting a little roomy! yay! My next NSV is to be able to use my WII Fit that my hubby bought for me last year and I weighed too much for it! I have about 20…

Thanks for posting this Katie. i hear ya on #25. Ive been on a plateau for 2 weeks, i'm gonna up my exercise by 10 mintues more this week and hopefully that will help! That was #72 I think.

Melissa, I'm in wisconsin too, so is Katie. We all wish that bigger was better LOL! And more healthier, but alas, it is not so. My friends and I go camping every summer around the Long lake area close to the iceage trail. It is so beautiful and last summer I said I wanted to hike it also. (What the heck was I…

Silverpen, I like where your going with this... I like the whole walking thing and group challenges idea! Maybe for march we can see who wants to contribute and see about burning a couple thousand calories each during the month and shoot for a goal. Hmmmm, I'll think about it and post something next week before the end of…

Can I get an amen to everyone's comments here!!! hahahha I think its great that everyone on MFP wants to be healthier, but I love the fact that I can talk within this group about having to lose a lot of weight, not just trying to lose 15 lbs so I can fit into my bikini this summer! I too had the amusement park experience…

Totally agree Evette!!!! Confidence is sexy, my husband said thats what attracted him to me when he met me. We all have a little extra to work with so we gotta work what we got! :laugh:

My biggest fear is regression. Pandorian hit it on the spot when he said, oh i did good , now its time for a bag of dorritos. I'll lose weight and then say, oh I'll take this weekend off cuz I'm doing so good. WRONG! Weekends are always tough for me.

Thanks Acacia! I have the list posted on the wall above my scale. It seems to help. I'll look at it when I really want a naughty snack and then that usually helps me curb my appetite into something a little more healthy. hey, whatever works right? :happy:

Hello everybody! My name is Rachel and I too have been overweight my whole life and have decided that this is my year to make positive changes. I have been married for almost 3 years and desperately want to have children before "the clock" starts ticking. In january I started at 381. Currently Im at 359. It hasn't been…
