I love doing IF and am starting to be successful at weight loss again for the first time in a couple of years! I feel so free from having to follow a strict eating plan, and because I know I can eat what I want (with in reason of course) I don't feel the need to over eat! I'm still keeping track of what I eat so that I can…

Steak supreso!

Walking is exercise! And for me, I get to go at my pace so I stay motivated. When I start I usually go slow, but as the endorphins kick in I find myself going faster. I love that it's at MY level! :)

I have found for myself that if I'm constantly trying to eat to few calories that I will burn out. Once I realized that 1200 was too low for me and went with a realistic amount I found I could do this long term. I'm back on track and I eat 1750 calories a day, plus I let my fit bit figure out how many exercise calories I…

I'm set at 1750 and I eat back my exercise calories whenever I want to. I set aside 800 calories for when I get off work (supper and a snack) and eat breakfast, lunch, and a snack at work.

There was a stupid thing on FB going around that said you should only drink warm drinks with food because otherwise the fat in food solidifies more. Totally untrue. That is probably where your friends are getting their advice from. My advice? Don't believe everything you see online.

Welcome! :)

Leftover spaghetti...

How long have you been trying?

This is such a sad, bleak post. How much is the surgery? Crossing everything that money comes your way so you can have it. I saw my sister in law's abdominal apron of skin and know the utter misery it caused her, and how thrilled she was to have it cut off. I have no loose skin yet ( I lost around 42 lb slowly) but I think…

Hi! I lost a lot of weight in 2010 but gained a lot of it back. I've been here before too, but am back to make a lasting change. I'll send you a request! (PS I'm a 40 yr old college student, mother of 2 teens and run a before and after school program for elementary kids-I understand eating on the go!! :))

Leftover spaghetti from last night! :)

I have PCOS and understand the frustration. Feel free to add me, but I am still just trying to figure out how to take weight off and KEEP it off. :)

I couldn't figure it out either and it's frustrating!

Feel free to add me. I have 95 to go!

I'd love to lose all 95 I have to goal, but realistically about 60 would be great!

Yay for you!! I can't wait to get back to Onederland!!!

Sauerkraut fried in a pan with butter, and a little more butter on it to serve. Weird but I love it!!

On Fridays I don't log. It's just for me, and it works for me. I do know that if I go super crazy with it that it will slow my weight loss, but if I don't have it I will go crazy and quit any way. It's a mental break more then a cheat day. I eat what I want to every day, and so it's not like I'm going to go crazy and eat…

I love that plan!! I eat pizza on Friday just about every week, it's my daughter and I's end of the week tradition. Go home, relax and watch TV and order from Pizza Hut! :)

yup!

^^ This is a push up challenge, but MFP has a really good squat challenge that I'm on day 3 of. Its' my profile pic right now to remind me to do it every day.

All I can say is WOW! You are so handsome! What an inspiration, thanks for sharing!

I love that when I am keeping track of calories and am eating the right amount for me I can schedule in treats. Today I'm having a bag of peanut m n m's at my daughter's BB game because I planned for them. :)

Zumba is fun but would be easier if I weighed 110 lbs...

I set my daily calories to higher and then I just count all exercise as 1 calorie. I don't like the mentality of "eating back" the calories.

Does your Chinese restaurant offer hibachi? Then at least you pick what goes into it completely. On the other hand I think an occasional treat, logged is ok. Just eat light the rest of the day or a couple of days.

w.o.w.!!!

I have at least 90-I would love to have more support as this is still a big amount to go for. I've lost in the past but need to re lose some again and get to my goal of 130. (I'm 5'3) :)
