It is not in your head. I have been going to the gym for a little over a week now and staying within my calorie count but eating what I want and I am down 13 pounds. I can really see it in my stomach and my figure is becoming defined as it used to be. I think the mere fact that we are probably exercising have a lot to do…

Great Job! I am at the beginning stages and looking to lose the same amount as you. I just started at the gym and tracking my calories and so far I am down 13 pounds from two weeks ago so I am excited. I know it is a long journey but we all can do this. I know it is more mental then anything.

Simply amazing!

Let me just say it is huge decision. At the time I had my lap-band done it was a big hype about it and how it works and my doctor didn't do any real consulting as far as the the choices he just basically let me decide. At the time it was the safest, least invasive, totally reversible option. Well now it is causing a lot…

I had it done June 2007 and I must admit that I have nothing good to say about it. I am preparing to have it removed either the end of the year or the beginning of next year. I just hope that you have done your research and really be ready for the commitment and possible side effects that may come. You can do a lot of…

It is such a tragedy when people are doing something for a good cause and somebody just have to go and take the good out of it and cause harm to others. I am praying for the families and friends of those affected by this tragedy.

I am not sure how much weight you are trying to lose but it is all a work in progress. I am surprised at my ability lately to pass up foods that I never would have done like free pizza at the bank today and a slice of pound cake in my refrigerator last night even though I was craving sugar so bad. I have a long way to go…

I agree in the morning fresh out of bed after urinating. Make sure to do it once a week to every two weeks. That way you should see some progress. I too am obsessed with the scale so I leave it alone.

From my understanding strength training will help minimize it but if you have a lot of weight to lose I doubt if you will get away with not having any. Drink plenty of water, and make sure to take care of your skin especially moisturizing and sun block. I think I am going to buy a firming lotion just to help it out a…

Somewhere along the line the person that is now fit and in great shape was unfit and not so good shape when they were with their partner and obviously it wasn't a problem for the partner when they were out of shape so I think it is kind of messed up to give the unfit partner an ultimatum like do something about yourself or…

Hello everyone - I had the lap-band surgery done June 2007 and I have never been happy with it. I only lost 20 pounds after the surgery from the band and after that I started having really bad acid reflux which was a result from the band. I am hoping to have it taken out the beginning of next year. I joined MFP to…

Hi everyone - I am in the same boat as most of you and have over 100 pounds I am trying to lose. I love my fitness pal because I do not have to stop eating the foods I love but adding them in the journal helps me stay on track and not over do it. I just started last week and introducing some exercising into the better…

I just want to say congratulations and I hope to be where you are in one years time. Today is the first day of gaining self control of my eating and exercising habits and I want to say thanks for the inspiration.
