Thank you all for sharing. Can't believe the transformations! Sooooo motivated today, if only to look 10 yrs younger like you all:heart:

I'm definitely open to friends and support, I live in eastern Ontario. I've been a member for a while now but I sometimes take breaks from the site and would like to stay more engaged and active as that is what works!

You can try doing simple arm movements with weights and combined with lunges or squats. This is a great way to burn more calories by combining large and small muscle movements. One for abs as well is to combine reverse crunches with arm rolls using weights while lying on your back. You don't even have to go to the gym for…

Thanks all, am definitely going to look at these resources. Just realizing I belong in this group, no idea there was so much info out there about BED and emotional eating.

If you do a Google search for Microsoft Excel progress charts for women, the main site will come up and there are charts for metric as well as standard (lbs, inches) for download.

Bump. Thanks Miranda:smile:

I've been in since May as well. I've done the yoyo thing over the past few years. Last year lost 17 lb for my son's wedding and gained it back plus some. This time I want to do it slow and effect lasting change. For the last 4 weeks I've been maintaining and am starting to lose again. I'm more active and have more energy…

Thank you so much for posting!!! Can't wait to try some of these, replace my boring old salads.

Ketchup chips are the worst, now if you're talking salt and vinegar now there's a flavourful......

Crunchy salty snack foods of any kind, especially chips, they can't be in the house or I will eat them!!

Great suggestions, I struggle with nighttime snacking. For the most part it is a habit, not actual hunger because you continue even after feeling full. It takes 21 days to break a habit and myfitnesspal and all of you are helping me to break this one:drinker:

Way to go! Very impressive, especially dramatic change in hips before and after.

Twice I have gone over on cheat days and have had major setbacks undoing a whole week of exercise and healthy eating. It's not easy when you are craving or just really want something, but it's also about taking a step back, having that glass of water etc. And really consider what you may gain (pun intended) by having that…

I've been here since end of May and love this Site. People are so supportive. When I had a bad day and still logged it, MFP told me where I would be in 5 weeks if I ate like that everyday and it was about 15 lb heavier. Sure enough the next day I went up 5 lb and it took me another week to get back to where I started. That…

Enjoying my smoothie for breakfast, anyone have any thoughts on greens+? Been using it for a few weeks now, love the taste. Cool, dull morning here, my garden is loving all this rain, especially the greens which I hope to start picking this week. So awesome when you can walk out in the yard and bring in groceries! Still…

To Joy:. My old girl is a border collie mix, she is about 12, she was a rescue dog, so not entirely sure. Have a crazy cat named Oliver too. Solid black and very bad!!

Yesterday was bad for me too, my golf date canceled due to rain, my walking partner got called in to work, went to see Gatsby with DH, Red Lobster biscuits and all, logged every bite tho, it was a real eye opener for me as to what I will weigh if I keep up those behaviors. TODAY is a new day, off for my walk now. Cheers,…

:flowerforyou: Started walking this week, two mornings so far, and a. Date for Friday. My dog is loving it, I'm sure she missed our walks even tho she's slowing down just like me! LOL. I also got into one pair of my summer capris that I couldn't get buttoned last week, good news for me, I hate shopping for bigger sizes.…

June Goals: Lose 2 lb per week Exercise 4x per week Eat healthy and stick to my calories Garden, go to movies, golf, distress! Enjoy this great summer weather... Thanks for this from a newbie, appreciate the support.

You look fantastic, go girl!

Just starting my journey, you are a role model for all of us. Way to go.

Wow, you must have so much more energy after losing that weight, can't wait till I see some results. Thanks for the inspiration

Hi, just joined this week, great site, loving the motivation so far. I live south of Ottawa.
