Nanasorchild52: My goal for my husband to carry me over the threshold is what is keeping me going (besides feeling good about myself right now). I lost another pound ... yippppppppppie.

Gardengail: Thanks for the shout out. Now I want some frozen yogurt; going to try yours out with a little bit of this and a lot of that ... LOL

Emmajackson 13: Your amazing also. Don't forget men somehow lose faster than women. Congrats ... you are doing an awesome job!

Congratulations! Very inspiring ...now to get my husband on board with MFP. I know it would do him good. I am following my calorie plan to the best I know how and am showing results. I believe in time he will realize it will help him also. Even though we cook together and make healthier choices; he tends to eat a little…

Congratulations ... very inspirational for me.

Well, it's Sunday - weigh in day. Yeah ... I lost another pound. I thought I was not going to make it. It was not a good week for me but somehow I pulled it off. I believe the exercising is helping me tremendously here. I plan to keep it up. Thanks for your posts and motivation.

Congratulations MA_B in reaching under 200 lbs. That is one of my goals I set up to lose by end of this year .. looking for 199 lbs. I am taking it slow and easy. My prize when I reach this first goal is for my husband to carry me through the door of our house. I will be 20 lbs under when he met me for the first time. This…

I would like to join. SW 245.4 CW 244.6 GW 239.0 UWT 180.0 I start lifting weights this week and will continue to do so at least 2X a week; ride my stationery bike 3X a week and walk as much as I can during the rest of the week. Good luck to all!

Yesterday was not a good day for me. I went on an eating binge. It was like I couldn't stop eating and ate everything I could get my hands on .. even chips and ice cream. At the end of the day when I was exhausted eating, I had to sit down and speak with my husband who is a big supporter of mine in my quest to lose weight…

WOW ... congratulations binterla. Keep up the good job .. hoping to follow in your footsteps.

So, how is everyone doing. So far so good. I have been making better eating choices as the days pass on. I have been losing at a rate of 1 pound a week and I do not feel as I have been counting calories. I don't miss anything (like french fries and ice cream especially) as much as I used to. I am looking forward to wearing…

Hola davpr86 .. I thought I was a lone wolf on this this message board. Like you I have tried many diets throughout my adult life with no success. I just kept putting on the weight; even after having children. Somehow after seeing my third grandson born in January, a light lit up in me to pursue my quest in losing weight.…

@ron2e .... I have had my share of jumping ship and wrecking my days with empty calories. I am learning to take one step at a time and trying to make good choices everyday. When I do have a binge, I try to get back on that wagon as soon as I can, otherwise it starts spiraling under control. You had one day of binging ...…

Thanks ron2e for your kind words and support.

I am going to try that yogurt with maple syrup and cinnamon ... sound delicious. Yesterday was a good day for me also. I am really excited using MP and continuing to lose one pound at a time. All the posts are inspiring me to continue on my quest. Thank you all.

Mmmmmm ... bump

Hello ... back again. Your suggestions have been great regarding my knees and I know it is the weight. Hopefully in a couple of weeks I will be looking into swimming classes. I just started walking leisurely and using my stationery bike for 10 minutes a day. I do have a bicycle and as soon as the weather gets nicer, I will…

Congratulations ... hoping to follow in your footsteps.

Hello, my name is Maria and I have about 70 lbs to lose. I started my quest about about 3 weeks ago. It's been a slow but steady process. I read some of your posts and feel that I am in the right place to find support in reaching my goal. If I can give someone else motivation along the way, it will make me happy. I always…

Hello and welcome to mfp. I too was disappointed in myself too; especially how I let myself go. Well, that changed almost weeks ago and I am on my way to be a healthier me. I have cut back on calories, adding more fruits and vegetables at every meal. My husband has also joined me in hopes to control his diabeties or even…

Hello, my name is Maria and I am looking for a group of supportive friends on this site that can motivate me in my quest to a healthier lifestyle. I am 63 years old and my knees are not the same as before so I need exercises that would not put a strain on my knees; but help them get flexible and stronger. Any suggestions?…

Week one down ... onward towards my second week. Good luck to all. Happy St. Paddy's day.

Well, I feel like I am on my way and hopefully, this time, to complete my mission to a healthier lifestyle. Wishing you the same. I also have to lose over 70 pounds and I know we can do it. Not licking that cupcake would have taken me more than determination, so I know you have it in you. Good luck.

I know you can do it; you have come so far ... keep it going. It is very inspirational to me to see others meet their goals. I am hoping to be one of them soon.

Hola, yo nacie en Puerto Rico y encontres este grupo. Me encantarias a vez y cuando entra en este grupo para ayudarnos mutuamente. Yo vivo en Alemania pero Puerto Rico siempre sera mi corazon. Tengo 63 anos y deseo bajar 80 libras. Hello, I am new here - joined a couple of days ago and looking forward to start my journey…
