Every day when I complete my entries for the day, it tells me "If every day were like today........ 140 (+/-) pounds in 5 weeks" It's been sooooooo many weeks I can't count. Once I got to 144, but it must have been a freak occurence. WAter or whatever... one day I weigh 148, the next could be 146...then 149...then 148....…

Nevermind the below question......I made it viewable to my friends only on here.... (Yes....how do I make my diary "public" ?? If I do, is it public to everyone?)

I'm discouraged too. After trying with just diet to lose weight for 2 years (hit head on brick wall repeatedly), I started working out daily. I've been doing this now for almost 6 weeks...I've only skipped about 5 days of working out. I've stayed in a calorie deficit or at equal (according to MyFitnessPal)...drinking lots…

this isn't posting in the right place grrrrrr whatever

Yes..exactly...we sometimes refer to the black ones as Groenendael here. But in Europe, the 4 varieties of Belgian are considered one single breed and are interbred. In the States, our Kennel Club considers the Belgians 4 distinct/different breeds. We have Laekenois (short, wiry, curled hair with coloring like a German…

I'm back again..(on MFP)... I've posted in this thread earlier (yikes - like last year!) Live on 6 wooded acres in central Virginia with hubby of 10 years (married to my wasband for 18 years), my two sons (21 and 17), three dogs, two cats and a fish. My husband and I like to shoot action pistol competitions - although my…

Hi Sharon, Welcome! This group is very friendly, chatty and supportive. :flowerforyou:
-
I've had night sweats with PMS for years...since my 30's... but still getting my period. I have had hypothyroidism for several years now and it just got worse so the levothyroxine dose was increased (coincidentally just today!). My hair (on my head) is thinning... I would LOVE to try false eyelashes... Any recommendations…
-
Welcome! I'm doing well here...slow start to the weight loss, but I really find this site helpful because it provides very visual parameters for me. The database of foods is GIGANTIC so I don't have to look up things and do math to record what I eat. I have tried different things for the last 2 years trying to lose any…

***applause*** Good for you!!! Keep after it :flowerforyou:
-
Heaven forbid the doc would cause me to lose weight, right??!! LOL
-
I am hypothyroid and, even with the meds, it brings me up to what is considered "low normal". I wonder why doc doesn't kick up my dosage just a tad more so I could get in the mid-normal range... As an update to general progress: I have cut back to 2 Diet Cokes per day and so, drinking much more water. Scale was under 144…
-
Well I have cut back to 2 Diet Cokes/day. I've been drinking water with a Celestial Seasonings Raspberry Zinger teabag in it. Please tell me there is nothing bad in the raspberry tea - the ingredients don't list anything bad that I can see. I gag on water plain and the Mio drops still have aspartame in them. I will try to…
-
Oh... yeah... and that little ruler at the bottom of my posts is ...well.... so encouraging right now ! LOL (grrrrr)

Thanks ya'all.. MFP has me at 1200 cals/day. I am 5'2" and weighed 146.6 when I started this 4 weeks ago. Today I weighed 149.8 !!! I have a pretty severe Diet Coke habit....drink between 4 - 6 cans a day. I drink 4 glasses of water a day. I don't like meat or eggs, so I don't eat a lot of either. Don't take in a lot of…
-
Me too. up 2ish pounds. Maybe it's PMS. I am 4 weeks in. :mad: I mean 4 weeks in with MFP... not doing Insanity....just walking 5 days/week for at least 40 minutes. Pretty discouraged.
-
I once did similar exercise/diet for 9 weeks...nothing happened on the scale... I didn't notice any change in my body either. And I was young then (in my 20's). Weight lifting coach told me that I was doing anaerobic exercise and that would not help. Needed to keep heart rate lower...don't work harder...work less and work…

I'm Claibourne ... from Richmond Virginia. (I'm a woman...sometimes my name makes people think I'm a man and my photo certainly doesn't provide many clues!)
-
When I was young, I was so busy being outside with my horse & dog... I ate a LOT but never gained weight. My family gave us lots of not-so-great stuff (although dinner was always balanced/healthy) - bread, mayo, bologna, peanut butter, cereal, ice cream, cookies... When I was young, my body and joints didn't hurt all the…
-
Thanks Ponyskates that does make me feel better.

My scale is crappy. So I entered my "real" weight a day after I joined. My "real" weight was 2 lbs MORE than originally entered. The weight graph just shows I've gained 2 pounds...doesn't start over... even though I thought I was changing the original weight. But it's okay...for me... I'll just work with it.
-
Me too !! Over 50 and need to lose about 20 lbs... just started this MFP...
