I don't count calories. I use to whe I first started losing. But now I'm more aware of what I put into my body. If I'm eating healthy foods then I don't worry as much. I don't gorge or anything but I don't obsess over the number of calories I eat.

I had just gone through a really bad break up and I was feeling really unhappy about myself. So I decided I was gonna take the time to focus on myself. It kind of fueled my drive because I was in the mindset of 'oh you'll see what you're missing'. Along the way I gained so much confidence. Two years later: a healthier me…

Hellooo! Welcome to MFP. I've had the joy of being a part of this community for over a year now. You'll find some really great people to help motivate you along the way.

Congrats girl! Your hard work is paying off :)

When people tell me that I eat too much, when what I'm eating is healthy and I'm very active. Also those stupid wraps and "diets". I saw one the other day that some girl was eating 5 bites of every meal and drinking lots of ice water. *Insert biggest eye roll*.

This story made my heart smile :smiley:. You're such an inspiration! And you look amazing!

My goal is to do as many runs as I possibly can. Also to complete a marathon.

I have a huge sweet tooth, especially with white chocolate.

Mine is open from 8-2 and I will be there.

Welcome :)

This is my struggle too :( and they wasn't much to being with.

Count me in :) I'm gonna start my goal at 500 minutes per week Mon:115 minutes of strength training and running Tues:160 minutes of Zumba Wed:100 minutes of strength training and running So far 375/500

One of my favorite new meals: cottage cheese, cucumber. bell peppers, grape tomatoes, and a little bit of pepper. Delicious!

When I first started losing weight, I focused on cardio and then slowly I started to add strength training to my workouts. I then started to do an even amount of time for both. And now I love strength training. I do more of it than cardio.

Go you! That's so amazing. You should be very proud of all of your hardwork.

What I do with plain greek yogurt is add a little bit of protein powder, fruit, and oatmeal. I stick it in the fridge overnight, it's delicious.

Welcome back! Feel free to add me :)

Yesterday I had Thai food. It was so delicious. But I still feel sluggish from eating it.

Welcome! You can do it. My fitness pal has a great community!

SW:184 CW:141 GW: Ideally I'd like to be between 125-130. At the end of the day though, it's just a number. Go off of how you look&feel vs what the scale says. :)

This is great to read :) I love that you pushed yourself outside of your comfort zone. Go you! Keep up your hard work.

Amazing. You go girl!

Look at you girl. You're doing amazing!! Keep up your hard work.

When I started using MFP I was about 184. I'm now 141. When I first started working out I thought that cardio was more important in weight loss. Over the last 6 months I've been incorporating more strength training in my workouts. I do an even mix of both. Sometimes I start with cardio then I just alternate. I try and plan…

Girl you can do it! We got you :)

Hi there. Welcome :) feel free to add me.

I was never able to fit in the largest size of Victoria's Secret sweaters, I've always wanted one so I went in the other day hoping to be able to fit into atleast a large. The large was too big so I went for the medium and its a little loose :)

I'm obsessed with Zumba. My zumba teacher makes it clear that everyone needs to check their ego at the door. So no need to worry about what other people think. If you're afraid to try maybe some videos on youtube :)
