Well, almost! 49 and fantastic! :bigsmile:

I love my height 5 11, and I love my heels! I will wear 3-4 inch heels, and think nothing of it!

I wear Beautiful...Este Lauder & Chanel No. 5

I am eating 1420 a day + work outs. Some days it is more like 1600 or even 1700. That is okay, tho. Whatever works!

I must agree! Eat what you love, in moderation...work hard at the gym, lift weights, drink WATER!

I joined mfp in Jan of 2011. It has been a year, and I have lost 51-53 pounds. I fell off the 'wagon' for a while, not logging, I mean. I managed to keep losing and have maintained the loss. I think I got 'too busy' to log and got tired of logging the same things over and over. It got so I learned to manage my calories in…

Gone! Outta here! Move on with the new year!

YES, yes I have! Flown across the country twice...and it was very, very nice! We are still close friends.:bigsmile:

My Grandmother used to say: "Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you are always right!" These are words to live by.

I am 5'11 and my target weight is 170.

STRONG

HI there~ 5'11, currently 203. Calorie intake is set at 1420. Lost a lot at first. Definitely harder now, but that is not unique to tall girls! I am making cardio more intense and doing more strength/weights. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

Kids at this age, especially boys, tend to 'date' in packs. Hang out, go to the movies. They don't really know what a 'date' is. The girls at this age, and apparently every other, tend to be light years ahead of the boys. They are the ones you have to watch, til high school, then the roles switch and the boys hormones…

Jeff, I can relate. Make it official. Move on. Many before me, and even you have said, not for her or for the former marriage, or even the current relationship, but for you. Cut ties, and find a relationship that fits the new you! Best to you, bud!:heart:

No doubt that MFP is addicting! Sounds like you are off to a great start! Good luck!

You cannot live on the amount of calories you are taking in! You must at least 1200 and probably 1400 a day. As other's have said, you need a balance between workouts and calorie intake. Good Luck!

Hello! I have a Polar FT7 HRM, which I love and have learned to value. Formerly, I relied on the burn from the machine...which was generally twice what my HRM calculates. I used to count 700 0r 800 cals burned for the elliptical (which I use nearly every day at the gym). Once I got my HRM and started relying on its read…

Hello, I am 48 and have lost 40 pounds...well up one this week...ha ha...but really I have about 29 more to go and MFP has been a terrific tool! It doesn't DO the WORK, but it is a great tool. Friend me to view pics of me. Tell your mom SHE CAN DO IT, but SHE HAS TO WANT TO.

How nice! Good work, Jeff! xxx

I agree with some of what most people have said....you can go strict and deny yourself the pleasure. However, I try to live up to the motto of everything in moderation. There should be compromise somewhere, BUT you need to log it, own it and enjoy it. Once it is over and done, remind yourself that you had it and deserved…

I am nearly 6 ft tall and wear heels! I am taller than my husband, and I love my height!

At my highest weight I was 280!!!

Wow! Like your attitude! Best of luck! Get to it! xx:drinker:

BUMP!

This ^ is why so many girls love you, Carl...Tell it brother...Amen.

RIGHT HERE, BABE! BEAR DOWN...

Mike, Thank you so much for your time and dedication to this amazing website! I have lost weight, gained friends, and family, as you say, and it is much more than a diet tool to me. Thank you too for stepping up and owning the recent rash of problems we have seen in the forums. It is great that you are working so hard and…

Hello~ I am 5 '11 and my goal is 170.:wink:

Hey you! I see you EVERYWHERE! Sorry you had such a harsh day! Hope that the love of all of your MFP Fam will make tomorrow better! xxoo

Shoot! sorry I missed them! but now, I have seen them and you look awesome! Great job! You can really see a huge difference!
