If its a chain resturant I always get a few meals into my own data base for any future reference. If its not a chain, I too alway ask if they have the nutrition info. If they don't- I find something close to it and just add 100 cals so I know aproximately how many to say it is. Some days I'm just too anal about it so I…

Not gonna lie.. the first week of Dec was a disaster! I actually gained! This week I have been doing really REALLY good.. and guess what?? My scale isn't working!!!!! GRRRRR! I'm planning on going to the battery store on Monday (its the soonest I can get there) so I guess I'll just have to weigh in when it finally gets…

Heck yeah!! Awesome NSV BB! Last night I found out that I could *almost* cross my legs sitting down!! Can't tell you how long its been since I have been able to do that! Its a normal sitting position that most people take for granted, but after a certain weight, one can no longer do that. I look forward to the day when I…

I have the new Fitbit Force, and I gotta say, since I've had it (about 1 week) its seems to me that its not the most accurate with steps ( fine with me.. I use it for a estimate of calorie burn) as something else might be. I use it mostly for motivation to keep moving and to have higher and higher goals to meet each day. I…

Me too! I started at over 400 pounds and my goal is eventually to lose about 220 more pounds! Its a long journey, but I only go by 10 pound increments. So I only ever working on losing 10 pounds or less. Its just works better for me that way. I also try to do something special after every 10 pound loss. Gotta find what…

NOT a good week. I was sick and I didn't even try to count my calories. UGH..... Oh well. I'll do better this coming week! (SW 12/1) 350.3 (CW 12/8) 353.6Ooooooops!!! (GW 03/1) 310.3 I hope everyone else did better than me this first week in December!!!! Nix

3 Days was my goal for week one of December. I got sick this week, and so I only did 2 days of my walk video this first week of December. Well.. It could have been worse!! :)

Just for today: I will stick to my meal plan!!

My goal was to workout for at least 30 minutes for a least 4 times this week. I am actually getting ready to do my Leslie Sansone walk video right now and then some Pilates for a bit. Tuesdays are my rest days and this last Monday I missed my workout because some friends came over and I was too polite to tell them to…

Yup. I gave into my cravings yesterday. My biggest problem with finally giving in is that the next day after giving in I crave unhealthy foods even more!!! The day after is sooo hard. I'm having a constant fight in my head today trying to keep myself from going bananas in the kitchen again. I won't give in again, but I…

I use the blender Slimfast shakes for breakfast alot of times. 1 scoop an 8oz of Fat Free milk and a few ice cubes and bam! Breakfast! I'm not a breakfast kinda person, so if I didn't do this I would totally skip it! But then I would be SO hungry by lunch. I know its not a really healthy thing to do, but I figure its gotta…

Hi Amanda!! I log daily and comment as often as I can! I'm real with my friends and honest! LIke today, I ate WAAAAAAY over my daily calorie goal. Ooops! Ah well. I will have bad days, but I will mostly have good days. I started this journey at over 400 pounds so I will be on MFP for a long time! I really get alot of…

Nope!! Its very manly for a dude to love salads!! Nuf said!! :) :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

@Lizzy_Sunflower I'm siiiiiiiiiinging in the rain!

Totally this!!

Bump. I will so need this someday. Thanks so much!!

Oooo Oooo!! Add me, add me!!! I started at over 400 pounds an still have like 210 pounds to lose!!! I log daily and comment often. If I can't during the day, I ALWAYS catch up in the evenings on the newsfeed. I LOVE supporting people and finding support from them! I take everyday one day at a time, otherwise saying to…

Just for today: I will NOT let the stress of whats going on right now in my life to overwhelm me! (and I will not stress eat)

Ok... I did very badly in November. I had like 10 binge/ way overeating days. :sad: One positive thing tho... I discovered the Leslie Sansone Walk At Home videos on YouTube and have been doing a 2 mile (30 minutes) walk most days! SO.. November was a crap month for eating, but I got into a better workout routine! So I…

Yeah I'm really excited too because I am kinda all over the board with weigh ins and if I have a set date (like every Sunday no matter what) I will be more motivated to really stick to my calorie goal. Its too easy to say, "well.. I have so much to lose and so I'll be doing this the rest of my life, so a day or two of…

SW 12/1 - 350.3 GW 03/1 - 310.3

This is great! I just started the Leslie Sansone Walk Off The Pounds 2 mile 30 minute walk this week (Tuesday) and I have done it everyday since. So 3 days so far! My weekly plan is to do it at least 4 times a week.

Would love to join! Is this gonna be a new group we can join?? That would be great! :)

My goals for the next 90 days: SW-404 CW-351 *Lose 30-40 pounds. *Do some form of exercise cardio/strenght training for at LEAST 4 days a week. *To remember to stand if I'm sitting, to shuffle if I'm standing, to park farther away and walk, run up and down the stairs just because. (^^^^so basically to just get more…

I just kept doing what I knew was right. Logging all foods and staying at calorie goal. I started to do more exercise and eventually it dropped. As long as you are not cheating, you will be fine. Sometimes you just have to wait it out. Keep your chin up and keep doing what you know you are suppose to do!!

You look amazing!! :drinker: You can totally tell a big difference! I started at a much higher weight than you I'm sure (over 400 pounds) so my 50 doesn't really show up much yet. Thanks so much for posting this!! I'm so proud of you!!! :) Nix:flowerforyou:

I sometimes feel like throwing in the towel, but I log in and see the great things my friends are doing and I want to be a part of that too! So I give it another day. I keep telling myself "just for today" and "you can do anything for one day!" and that seems to help me. I also have been able to work up from only being…

Hi Tiarra! Glad to hear you are taking steps to get healthier! The biggest thing I can recommend is to keep scouring the forums to find people who have similar goals and weight loss goals. I was on here for months before I got involved in the social aspect of MFP. I have never done better since I found some people who are…

Just for today: I will do some form of exercise even tho its snowy and cold and all I wanna do is hide under the covers! :sad:

I too have tried everything out there. Weight loss pills from Doctors, Bee Pollen (which some of my friends SWEAR works. Didn't do diddly for me) WW, starvation, eating everything not nailed down hoping for a miracle! EVERYTHING!!! I found MFP thru a friend (who incidently hasen't logged in for about 3 months) and loved…
