I just watched your video, and I think it was great. I think they would be crazy not to pick you! I really hope you get picked to be on Season 15 because I will definitely be watching it. It is such a motivational show. Good luck!!!! :)

I'm 5'6" and my goal weight is 140-145. I am currently 225 so I have a long ways to go! but I'm trying to stay motivated and disciplined!!!! so I can get the body I want.

I'm 22 years old and am a full time college student. I currently weight 220 and need to lose about 75lbs to be at my goal weight of 145. In my freshman year of highschool I weighed about 210 and got down to 160 with lots of exercise and counting calories, however, over the years I have managed to gain all that weight back…

hmmmm??? I'm starting to think I may have scared people off with this post rather than getting more supportive friends to really help me out and check in on me everyday!!!!??? where's everyone at?

I work night shifts too and it's horrible. I know how hard it is to resist raiding the snack machines when you are so hungry. I just started back on mfp and hope I can stick to this. I definitey am not doing as good as I could be and I know that. I always packs something unhealthy like pasta, crackers, pudding etc. and…

I was on depo for 5 months and in that short time I gained 25lbs from it. I know it had to be the shot because I was very active during this time, I am a zumba instructor so I was teaching twice a week plus dancing and exercising throughout the week when I didn't have class and was eating pretty well. I would not recommend…

I am getting married 8/11/12 only TWO months away! Its been a rough past few years and even though I knew my wedding was coming quickly I've had little motivation until now :( My goal is to lose 50lbs but I'm starting so late now that I probably won't even get close to that by my wedding date. I do want to lose as much as…

CW: 186 GW: 145 ht: 5'6" Age:21 full time college student, no children yet.

I'm just starting today, but I will definitely keep you posted on results. I just can't see spending that much especially since I am a college student with a minimum wage job.

So all of my goals were met yesterday except doing more homework lol=p but I even managed to do the new Jillian Michaels extreme shed and shred when I got home too=] My goals for today are: 1. drink as much if not more water than I did yesterday 2. take my puppy eli on a long walk when I get home from work...if not too…

Yes, actually I do log my exercises before I do them because then I hold myself to getting it done! I also like being able to see how many calories I really have for the day after exercise is already added...gives me more wiggle room I guess you could say. I thought I was one of the only ones, glad I'm not.

I am glad I went on my profile page and looked at recent forums! I don't know how I forgot I joined this group. I feel bad for not logging my goals since the 4th but starting again today. So, my goals for tomorrow, Jan. 11th are : 1. finish all of my chapter 1 work for my art history class. 2. drink more water! 3. look up…

Hi, my name is Brittany and I am a full time college student working on my degree in human services/counseling psychology:) I am 21 and planning my wedding for this august. I have made it my new year's resolution to finally make this year my year! to finally get this extra weight off. My wedding is in 7 months (august 11,…

I am sorry I haven't replyed to anything recently but I just now got a chance to weigh myself today because my scale has been broken...unfortunately I am still at 185 though I have been working my butt off but apparently not hard enough:( hopefully I will see some changes soon!

I have tried slimfast and I can say that it will help if you actually include a regular exercise routine with it...and like someone else said it is a meal replacer so you shouldn't eat it with meals because that defeats the whole purpose. I have never done the 3-2-1 plan they recommend but instead just replace one of my…

You are definitely not the only one with this problem. I am 5'6" and my goal is 140, people usually look at me too and think I have gone insane and say I don't need to lose anymore. I currently weight about 180 and people tell me that I don't look 180. However, when I look in the mirror I know what I see and I know what I…

I am in :) my starting weight is 185. My goal weight for christmas is 145!

current weight 182, pounds lost since last week-3lbs:) and no I haven't been tracking inches lost but that is a good idea. Sorry I didn't check in last week but I had exams for school and work so I hardly had time for much else but I really want to be in this group like I said:) good luck to all of us! :D

FINALLY:) a challenge with my ultimate goal! Since I started trying to get off all this weight in December this has been my goal. I am going to Virginia Beach with my family and one of my best friends and I would love to be able to wear a bikini by then. Though I don't really have a bikini body...I am very curvy and have a…

Wow, that's absolutely amazing! you look great :) you are definitely an inspiration to get my butt up and moving and to stay dedicated to my goals. Thank you for posting!:happy:

Sherry you can do it! it's still really hard for me to even get motivated sometimes. The weather hopefully will help though, I know when its nice outside like today I always go walking 4 miles at nana's house and I get Kayla to walk with me. I like the idea about challenges being posted to your profile page...that might be…

I drink pure silk unsweetened almond milk! at just 35 calories a cup it's great to add to your diet. It is a bit thicker than regular milk but it doesn't taste bad at all, I like it. I use it mostly for my cereal though, I usually don't drink it by itself. I have also mixed it with fat free orange sherbet and light nonfat…

These look and sound amazing I will def. try them out. I have never tried nutella but I am thinking I would like it alot better than peanut butter, because it isn't made with peanuts and has chocolate flavor I guess.

I am here for motivation and support! you can definitely do this:) Just keep focused on your goal and your inspirations for wanting to reach it!

Thank you everyone! it makes sense now. I am going to try to start doing 6 meals tomorrow...hope I do well.

I am gettin married next August! :) I am still trying to lose about 40 more lbs. I am here to support and motivate you, you can do it!

I'm in:) My current weight is 185.

I agree with the others who have replied to your post. MFP is very motivating and there are so many people on here to support you and keep you going:) As far as "not picking up the cookie", I've had my few slips but let me tell you once you log it and you see all those wasted calories it will make you feel bad and put you…

Wow, I never knew that...I always thought that you could spot reduce fat, it's good to know that if I keep losing it though that they will eventually go away. I am a very impatient person, but I still have 40lbs to go to reach my goal weight so hopefully I'll start seeing them get smaller soon. I will have to try the…

I have been doing Jillian Micheals 30 Day Shred Video for about 3 weeks now and I just started level 3 about 2 days ago! It's definitely challenging but if you keep yourself motivated and just tell yourself "it's only 20 minutes" you will definitely start seeing results if you stick with it everyday. From doing this video…
