My issue is the winter. That's when I got the membership. With all the snow and ice, I didn't want to go outside and walk/run in that. I do have a staircase, so maybe run up and down them too? lol

I thought about getting some weights as well. I want to do more than just cardio. I've been looking up exercises to do at home as well for strength.

The weather is getting nice, maybe I'm go running. Thanks for the responses!

I went over yesterday (my cheat day) and tracked it. Today I feel like crap and I'm back on track today! I love the MFP app!

My husband loves junk food as well. Today we are having a birthday party for our 4 year old and we went out yesterday to get a cake and ice cream. I plan on having a SMALL piece of cake and I am making a banana "ice cream" for me. It's hard making healthy decisions for yourself when there is someone in the house who…

I play on Misha (Alliance) and Blade's Edge (Horde). :)

I hear ya. I only gained 15 lbs when I was pregnant. I was so sick I couldn't eat. After having her I went crazy and ate like a pig. However, I breastfed so I could eat bad food and got down to my pre-pregnancy weight quickly. Then she stopped breastfeeding and I kept eating junk........now I'm overweight. I am not going…

I think I am going to print them out and keep it with me and look at it. These motivate me a lot.

No, he just did it himself. He watched what he ate and worked out a little. He used to go to the gym a lot when he was younger.

I didn't think of it like that. Thank you.

Thank you all for your advice and input! I think I needed this support today. :)

My mom and I are going to go to the gym together so I have someone to do this with. I am very proud of my mom and she is my inspiration. My husband's ex-wife ended up cheating on him and leaving him when she lost weight. I know that's where his insecurities come from. I am trying to show him that when I feel beautiful…

I have invited him to the gym. He struggles with his weight and gets mad at himself. Last year he lost 75 lbs then stopped losing and got frustrated and stopped. I was supportive of him although I wasn't ready to get healthy myself. I hope he does go with me sometime. I would love to do this with him.

Yes! So true! I am in therapy to deal with a lot of my issues. It's not about the food. I have an OCD and one of my obsessive thoughts is I am afraid of being hungry so I over eat. I think if I eat a lot I won't starve. I am working hard to change tht thought process.

Thank you for the advice! I'll up my protien intake. Thank you!

Thank you all!

Thank you! Good luck to you too!

Thank you. I think once I get past the sugar addiction It'll be better. I am looking forward to the support!

Hi! I know how you feel. I'm back at it again. It's ok, we can do this!

Wow! I'll check that out!

Hahaha! That was my problem! I ate everything in sight and still didn't gain! I was sick for my entire pregnancy and couldn't eat a lot so I went overboard! lol

Good for you! When I breastfed my daughter I didn't eat well at all and when she stopped I gained a ton of weight! I'm now wishing I would have started eating well while I was breastfeeding. It sounds like you are on the right track!

Wow, it's good to know it helps others with IBS. I went to work today and instead of grabbing coffee (a big trigger food for me), I made a cup of hot tea. My first thought was I didn't have any stomach pains at all today. I've also had no dirreha! That is big for me! I did have some alfrado sauce tonight with my chicken. I…

I don't plan on quit playing WoW because I want to get into shape. WoW didn't make me this way.

When I fast from food I normally do it on Sunday and I spend the day in prayer and reading the Bible (as well as attending the church service). When I break it I try to eat light. I used to do 7 day fasts and I lead myself up to it and broke it gradually so my body got used to digesting food again. You should always…

Nope, I'm a dog trainer and an assistant manager for a fire restoration company Connie: student everyone looks like a student to me lol

I am not looking for a diet. If you go on a diet, sooner or later you go off it. Then what?? I am looking to be healthier, a lifestyle change. I need a lifestyle change more than I need a diet.

I fast for religious reasons, so I know what you are saying. Recently, I've been fasting from certain foods instead of food all together. Right now I am fasting from soda and pop. I'm only drinking water and green tea. I am still getting the craving so I am still able to deny my carnal self (religious reason for fasting),…

Oh, I sooooo wish that was my job! Yes, I love video games, but it's not where I work. :)
