this is day 21 of 21 for me, and while its been a bumpy ride, i have to admit, i have had more stars on my chart than ever before, not only did i make it through a weekend this week, but i am feeling the results, inside and out the idea to include other things, other than simply weight related items to my necessary daily…

day 10/21 done and into day 11, forgot to check in on this thread but ive done well, while ive exceeded my calorie goals 3 days so far, owning up and keeping at it is huge for me, im so glad that im sticking with it and have some accountability, i know that time will make it easier to keep this as a lifestyle, instead of a…

day 8 done, another success today i get all 5 stars :), and i have calories to spare if i get absolutely starved before bed :)

join the club hun... unfortunately there is going to be a few pains along the way, this is my 100ish attempt at this, but im sticking with it and making small changes ....each time to make more progress, im back here again, but what i have noticed is that key things like adding more protein really makes a huge difference,…

ok had a rough night last night, realized i was very lonely after i binged on carbs.. seems thats my comfort food lolol today i managed to pull my **it together and get back on track, something that usually takes me weeks to accomplish, im proud that i am here again so soon and am likely to continue on track tomorrow, to…

hi there nathansgrl, while male, im always looking for people to share my journey with, hit me up if you like :) and way to go on your current success !

not sure if we are supposed to check in every day, but so far having added most people here to my friends list is making a huge difference, watching others progress, hearing their idea's and just knowing im not at this alone has been great for me, thanks so much to everyone ive met through this challenge 5/21 done and off…

ok ive got to get in on this, while i am late to this thread, i have made it to day 4 of my routine, hope im not to far ahead/behind it looks like you guys are on day four if this was started monday :) my routine im using a star chart --litterally have a calender with star stickers on my mirror :) here are the color codes…

i know your pain im now 7 years clean and sober, and have gained an extra 120 pounds from where i want to be, ive focused on the reality that i cant drink and use a 12 step program to keep me on the right path, but because my focus has been on staying off drugs and alcohol my waist has grown super big, now that im willing…

your in the right place, starting to track your eating habits can be one of the most useful tools to making progress as some one who knows a bit about eating disorders myself being a food addict, i know that all the information alone will not do it, there are many places and ways to go about getting a healthy grasp on a…

about 7 years ago i recovered from drugs and alcohol While in treatment i put on 32 pounds in my first 28 days, from there i excused my health and appearance as not a major priority compared to my recovery, in turn what i ended up doing was stuffing my feelings rather than actually learn how to cope with my feelings. Im…

hi julie. first off welcome second, im so proud of you, and wish i had your courage, your post is giving me the courage to come back to the forum again im back for the third time, but i refuse to give up, im 119 pounds from my goal and today was the first day i would love to share the ups and downs with some others and…

i certainly dont know a lot about loosing weight, thats why im here, but ill tell you what the personal trainer i have suggested tones and tones of cardio.. im not sure why you dont want to do cardio, but transferring the weight from fat to muscle happens in phases i understand, and that loosing fat happens first, so if…

i dont know what more i can add to the already awesome suggestions, but the one that i had to make, after getting just plain angry was the choice to actually DO SOMETHING i spent 3 years on the up and down rollocoster from diet to diet as well, then realized that the moment i stopped it all came back the only way i have…

ill send you a friend request now, im looking for as many go getters as i can get on my team too :)

ok so i found a bunch of my notes on my weight gains/loss' ive now edited my profile to show all the loss' since jan 1st, when i started at 325 i really neeed to remember where i started and claim all of my victories... slow or fast... thanks to mfp and everyone here for their help this week and i look forward to keeping a…

i try to keep it once a week this allows me a little breathing room as i know my largest loss's are early week and my few treats fall on the weekends, so monday is the day to anti up and see if i need to moderate those treats better :)\

congrats, and way to go for measuring rather than weighing, i know so many who thrive that way and im always excited to hear another person use this strategy with success joe

i just read this post and much of the extensive information posted in the link, it all sounds great and the author really seems to point out some facts that you dont often find discussed but just so others know, there are many different perspectives on this topic and to date this is the first ive read from any RD or…

i may have missed another members replies to this, but here is a some info based on the reading ive done. having more calories in the day will often help to increase a persons metabolism, especially when and if a steady income of calories persists throughout the rest of the day its a fact that a calorie is a calorie is a…
