Diets never worked for me. Since I did this lifestyle change, every day is new with the hope of reaching all my health and weight goals. Add me :)

Ok, first of all, I would never call you fat... you need to re-think that frienship :noway: Add me, I am always looking for new friends on this journey to become better us!

Add me...

If you look at seamstress sites for instructions, they giove you a tip: bend forward and where you bend is where you measure your waist. it will end up being between your ribs and your naval. Hips is at the widest part. Keep your thumb under the measuring tape so not to make it too taunt. I found this website useful...…

Try something called "tapping"... I think you can look for it online. It is something like pressure points... I teach it to my clients and use it myself.

Hi, I'm 5"7 too, started at 204 aprpox and bounce back and forth 197-196, cant loose a thing more. My inches are coming off but the scale mocks me :mad: I've gone up in calories and am starting to change my workout around but just can't seem to change the scale. Ive been doing this close to 3 months... Very frustrated as…

bump cuz I want to know :)

I think it sounds like a good plan... I just up-ed my cals to TDEE - 20% so Im in the same boat... Good luck!

Pure protein (I like the peanut butter...which is the nutritional value I have on hand) 16 grams of carbs 23 grams of protein 200 calories They have great shakes too, the vanilla has 110 cals, 23 g of protein, 5g of fiber, low on the carb side too (cant remember exact number). I eat them for breakfast almost every day. You…

S. Korea- fun! journal, journal and journal, also, do what nicolemarie said no fried or saucy foods ... and then remember to enjoy yourself :) Have fun!

Ok, wierd question... When you are working nights... how are your bowl movements the following? the schedule change could be throwing your digestive system off track. This compliments what someone esle asked about water intake... some thoughts for consideration...

Im in!!...user 105 :)

Inital test: 12 (girl push-up)... let's do this!

Add me... I wont yell but will seriously ask WTH you're not getting off your butt :grumble: LOL

I work with a lady that does 150 push-up every day...her arms are awesome. I can do 10 girl ones and have been working on increasing those...started at only being able to do 1- 15 days ago... I'll try out the challenge :bigsmile:

Feel free to add me :)

Just sent request :)

I do BMR +100+ exercise calories... For me, its an in-between eating 20% less than TDEE and eating what MFP recommends. The answer is not "right" or "wrong"... I have not been losing weight but rather inches with this... I am considerign uping my calories... Use the military calcualtor on this...…

I'm looking for that too... I found the Pure Protein brand and buy the pre-made ones because I mostly use them after workout and to supplement my protein intake; however, I am new to the protein powder stuff and am not sure I want to mix stuff up... The Pure Protein (I have the bars and shakes) haev 5 g fiber, 23 protein,…

My name is Katherine and I am diabetic (for over 10 years). I love MFP and have seen great success decreasing my medication levels by doing this program. Friend me if you would like. I monitor my carb intake and calorie intake.

The scale is the devil...haunts me daily... I got smart after a little bit and started taking measurements... Down over 2 inches but only 6.5 pounds... Great work!!

Awesome!!, Congrats :)

bump for later reference

I work in Women's Health... Depo is HORRIBLE!! I am so sorry this is happening. Like the other post said, it may take up to a year to balance hormones out. 95% of people on Depo gain weight! Use something like the Nexplanon or IUD if you want long term (no pills or rings). Drink plenty of fluids and keep doing the right…

35 year old mom to 2 boys (10 and 5)... trying to lose approx 30 pounds... Also looking to gain some non-scale victories like getting fit, being able to do 25 man-style push-ups in a row and jogging a 5k... I log in every day and love to give support and be supported...add me :)

Your TDEE is to maintain, eat less to lose. There is a group of people on MFP that do eat more-weigh less and follow TDEE - % rule rather than MFP recommendations. I think it is personal preference. I have custom settings on my goals for macronutrients and calories to be over my BMR, not under how MFP initially…

You look great, but the bottoms seem too big on your bottom... maybe some boy short type?
