Hey all - feel free to add me. Love a good ole chat!

Hiiii welcome to MFP. If you like you can add me as a friend and we can help to support each other to reach our goals. Im about 22lb away from reaching my goal and I have lost 11lbs so far. Im 5"10. Best of luck on your journey! You are definitely in a good place here!

I have been feeling a bit like you these past two weeks. I started a very stressful new job and it threw me right off track. It might be a good idea to write down why you started this in the first place and it may help you get back on track. Ten lbs in a month is amazing and it should be celebrated - Im a big fan of…

Thank you for all the brill info. I like the sound of the meatloaf. Although I have never made on myself yet...I asked my German husband if he knows what meatloaf is... So his answer was it is either a singer or a type of meat cake that you bake in the oven! Love it!

I live in Germany - I don't think we have Jenny-O here at all, which is a shame really as it seems there are so many products from that range all low in fat and you dont even have to think about it! It seems to me that it is harder in Germany to do a food shop and come home with a lot of products that will make it easy for…

Thank you - I love the Bob Harper meatball recipe. I love Bob, seriously like. My plan is to make these meatballs for dinner tomorrow evening. Hmmm now I just have to think about what I will serve with them...the possibilities are endless! I also love that I can use turkey mince as an alternative to beef or port mince in…

Hey Im pretty new too. Feel free to add me. Im logging all my food and exercise daily. I find it is so helpful and I really feel accountable. Everyone on here seems so helpful and supportive. You can do it!

Thanks for all the info guys. I used to think I was pretty "in-the-know" about many things nutrition relation related but it seems I still have lots to learn. Thats good too as Im sure Id get very bored if I knew it all already. I am concentrating on a good healthy diet consisting mostly of lean white meat, fish, plenty of…

Others have mentioned stress here. That is definitely the reason for me too. Its hard to think straight when you are totally stressed out and its much more difficult to make wise food choices and there may be no time to plan food in advance. This time around I am working at a better approach. Im trying to incorporate…

Oh great - after I posted my message I started to think that maybe there was good sugar and bad like there is good and bad fat. It seems to me that you are saying there is good sugar. Im not diabetic or have any problems with sugar at all so Im not trying to manage it. This is great news. I was worried when I kept seeing…

I was going to suggest walking as it is free and can be done almost anywhere, but then I read that you are also taking care of your little sister who doesn't like to walk. How old is she? Maybe you could turn it in to a game for her and get her to want to go out for a walk with you or add in some sort of incentive for her.…

Hey there Im also looking for some more friends here to help me stay on track! Im recently married 32 and struggling with the same 30lbs like forever! So here I am and this is the first time I have done MFP and so far Im very happy with it. We dont have kids yet its one of the reasons Im here to lose weight before we start…

Well done on taking your first step. That is the most important thing - that you realised you want to do something about the weight. I only joined last week but already everyone is being so supportive and friendly and helpful. Please feel free to add me. I am finding the fact that I must log in all my food and exercise…

I wonder if the points counting was not that healthy after all. I think especially for foodies - I was stocking up on fruit and veg all day and it was, as you know, no points. I think it is just too hard for me to follow. I hope thought, that I am not just making another excuse. I will give this my very best shot though. I…
