So the people slowing down right about now.... That's me. And I CREATED this challenge. Oof. I gotta keep up the motivation like I did in the beginning. I'm still logging everything but not proud of my choices and weight loss has totally stalled out.

To the people that just joined... welcome!!!

Nope, welcome aboard!

Nope, never too late

I use the recipe tool. I create a recipe and enter each ingredient and quantity. Its not perfect but it helps

A few days late... Weekly weigh in: SW:211 SW beginning of this challenge: 204.4 10/7: 206.7 10/14: 203.6 10/21: 202.4 10/28: 201.6 11/4: 201.5 Damn you Halloween candy, you taunt me so! GW on 2/1: 184.4

Anyone else's Fitbit not syncing steps? MFP shows 699 steps but my Fitbit says over 8,000.

Me too! Freaked me out

This is what we are trying avoid , my wonderful MFP people. Ha!

My "Like" is for your weight loss of 105lbs, awesome! Not liking the lost of your father or surgery. Just to be clear. :-) Welcome aboard!!

Some things I've thought about since being a regular tracker and being accountable: Everything I eat is there, right in front of my face. Am I proud of my choices? Sometimes, some meals, yes. Is eating 400+ calories in Halloween candy daily a wise choice? Probably not lol. Did I track every single Kit Kat? Damn right I…

Weight loss is not linear, I have to repeat this to myself constantly. Especially as a women, hormones, water weight, etc. Seeing the scale bounce up is discouraging but it's not an accurate number. No single weight is... imagine a zig zag line that trends downward. You probably just caught an "up zig".

When I was new to the community, I didn't realize the woo was a negative thing. I thought of it like woah! Or woohoo!. The emogi face does look a bit bewildered though. Maybe they don't know it's negative?

Those of you starting late, doesn't necessarily mean 20 lbs. If you're a month late, maybe just shoot for 5 lbs a month? Obviously, totally up to you and how much you want to lose, need to lose. I guess what's most important, to me, is staying accountable, having a manageable goal... especially through the holidays. I'm…

The ones I've seen, which inspired me to do this, you just comment whenever you want, weigh in weekly. You don't exactly get added. You just favorite the thread and participate as desired.

I want ice cream, my non existent leftover calories won't allow for it. Must. Stay. Strong.

Awesome to see so much progress from all you peeps! For all the newly joined friends, welcome! For anyone asking if they join? Of course!! The more the merrier :-)

Sw: 211 Day1: 204.4 W1: 206.7 W2: 203.6

Considering I spent the entire day at playoffs in a pool hall...i succeeded in meeting my caloric goals. Technically i went over by ONE calorie lol. But instead of ordering fried crap...i smuggled in beef jerky, almonds and protein bars. Looking forward to weigh in tomorrow.

You're welcome join at any time! Exercise is not required, whatever works for you! This is simply an end weight goal, helping to get us through the holidays and stay accountable, motivated, and support each other.

most are doing Sunday but whatever works for you. Welcome!

I'm going with Sunday (I started this thread, but only because I stole someone else's idea lol). But if you'd like to weigh in on Monday... by all means, do yo thang! Whatever works for you!

I'm loving all the motivation and new people joining! Mentally and emotionally I've been a mess this week. My diet hasn't been pristine but I've been tracking and staying within my limits.. eating back some of my exercise calories but not all. Small victories. And the scale is heading in the right direction!

I use the app on my phone but click on the star at the top right. It'll favorite it.

I had one! It beeped and light up. But it fell and broke and it was $45! Perhaps ill see if they have cheaper ones now

Sugar free dark chocolate Hershey minis, I put them in the freezer. Sugar free, fat free chocolate pudding. I'm also a sweets/ chocolate lover

Oh those potatoes !@! I love potatoes I try to not eat them at all during the week[/quote] I only cooked them because I had potatoes in my fridge growing eyes. Time to go. Hubby is type 1 diabetic, we never eat potatoes.
