I learned that not everything revolves around the scale- there are also measurements :) I cook at home a lot more I am finally starting to enjoy working out - which is great because when I first met with my nutritionist I told him I was never going to exercise (seriously) I look back and can't understand how I could say…

I agree 100% with everyone on here who said don't do it :D

My best marriage advice is don't do it! Also never again if you have been married and divorced.

Hi I have already lost 30 pounds before MFP, I am down another 4.5 since being here. I still have about 100 to go. Feel free to add

Wow! this sounds amazing I was just looking for some awesome breakfast recipes. Thank you for sharing!

Hi I use dumbbells also and I get my workouts off of Spark people. http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/exercises-printable.asp Hope this helps. I do my strength training at home because I don't like to it in front of other people.

Hi, I am sorry this happened to you. When I go to the gym I just kind of pretend everyone else is invisible because I am there to change my life not worry about what people think about me. Plus those girls should care that your there because it shows your trying to achieve your goal also. Just ignore them I know its hard…

Apparently not enough. Only 11. I am a very picky eater I don't like eggs or fish. Any suggestions?

Hi Send me a message I can give you some ideas. I have to watch my sodium also.

I have 93 lbs I need to lose. I absolutely measure out my food with measuring cups and those things. Sometimes I just feel like a failure because in the 3 years I have been battling my weight I feel like I should already be at my goal!

You totally missed my point. I want to eat till I am not hungry anymore because I am not trying to starve myself!! Your goal in eating shouldn't be to feel full in the first place. Eat until you are no longer hungry and then STOP even if you have food left over

Thank you so much for the ideas everyone.

Thank you so much for sharing I am trying to lose over 100#. your pictures are such an inspiration to me! you look incredible!

Hi I'm over 200 but prefer not to give out my actual weight. My goal is 199 for right now, long term goal 140#

Eating that much fruit in a day is not good because of all the natural sugars- I mean sugar is sugar not matter where it comes from. I personally would never do that diet and it does sound ridiculous!

5'6" looking to hit 140# 93ish to lose. I am all about having friends but I would like to keep it kind of small in order to keep it personal. Also want friends who are between 1400-1600 calories.

Thank you so much! I will check out those websites.

PJ- I do work out more then once a week I just happen to only take class on one day. I do water stuff, walking the track for a mile and using a NU Step machine for my knees.

Hi, I love swimming I have chronic pain and it is so nice to be able to do things in the water that I can't do on land. At my gym I met with someone who does pool orientation with me every couple of weeks until I feel like I have enough fun exercises. When we meet she also makes sure my form is correct.

Hello, I have chronic pain and so when I started out I would stretch a little then walk around a track. If you do join a gym try to find one with a pool because that will be easier on your joints. I understand not wanting to join a gym but I did it because I was like I don't care what anyone thinks I am here to get healthy…

I am a breakfast lover!! Try eating 1-2 packets of any kind of oatmeal it is so filling. Otherwise I usually have 2 strawberry waffles -190 cals, spray butter has no cals, low calorie sugar free syrup-10-20 cals and yogurt. Fresh fruit is also a good option. Hope this helps :)

Thank you so much. I have a hard time trying to make it to the gym because of it. But I do faithfully go to the gym on Thursday nights for my piloxing class. 400 calories in 45 minutes for my ht and wt. The rest of the week I just seem to feel so exhausted. :(

Hi everyone, When I was skinny people would say wow your all skin and bones and I was 140# I was not skin and bones. Now that I have gained way too much weight people say to me how much do you want to lose and I tell them- then they say OMG! from where? Its like I'm sorry would you like to see me naked so I can show you??…

Hi, I don't avoid anything. Everything in moderation. However for some people should avoid foods if you can't eat just 1 serving. I have a friend who loves the fiber one products but will not eat any because he can't have just one. I love the fiber plus granola bars chocolately peanut butter before I work out.

Hi, The rudest thing anyone has ever said to me is when am I due? or how many weeks along am I? unbelievable just because I am not a size 2 automatically means I'm pregnant? Plus when I was married my in-laws would constantly tell me to eat more, they would always try and put more food on my plate. Or when we would go out…

Horndave: This is amazing thanks for sharing :)

Hi, For me its about being completely honest with myself even if I go out to eat and go over my calories. I might get mad but then I realize tomorrow is a new day and a new chance to start over. Plus I also my mfp records to my nutritionist. If you have a bad day just remember you can start over at the next meal or the…
