  • Hi all. I'm Kathy and I'm back to try again. Last month was my first time and I lost out because of no exercise one day. Now that I've hit my first plateau (the same weight for 7 days! Ugh.) I really need the accountability. Thanks for inviting me back!
  • Bump for future reference.
  • Bump just puts this thread into "My Topics" so it will be easier for you to find again.
  • Bump to show my disabled husband he CAN lose the excess weight he's put on. He's just starting to think that maybe he should try MFP too, so I hope this motivates him to try it. Thank you for your great story and amazing progress!
  • I started with just counting calories at first. Any exercise I got was by walking at work or shoveling snow.

Keep reading the message boards and…
  • I go between evenings and nights. When I do work nights it is usually a double shift, from 4pm to 8am. On those days I start my next day at 4am because I need nourishment to get through the rest of the shift! I don't have much, but it helps me to keep going. You should try different ways of counting your calories and find…

I also like white cake mix with diet cherry 7-up too, especially with pineapple chunks added in. I may just have to try the mug cake though. I don't like to have a whole cake lying around saying EAT ME!
