Hello to you too! I'm also a WW refugee. It worked for me when I could find a leader and a group that was a good fit for me, but it was expensive and I hated all the waiting in line. This is working well for me so far, and I hope it does for you too.

Zoloft is very bad for weight gain; avoid it like the plague! I'm on Celexa now, and it doesn't seem to cause such problems. A friend told me Efflexor made her lose weight, which sounds like a good thing, but it also killed her libido, which is not. Be sure you discuss any changes in your meds or dosage with your doctor.…

I like the Adidas MiCoach Zone. It has a chest strap and a wristband with lights that show different colors to show you what zone you're working in. Very simple and easy to use. It's been discontinued, but it can still be found. I got mine on amazon.com.

2 hour bike ride, 24 miles @ 12.4 mph; about 1500 calories. 3706 calories burned over the week. Ready for next week's challenge.
-
No exercise today, but I did finish the day below my goal for calories. I'm planning on a bike ride for Sunday, and I'll get a chance to try out a new heart rate monitor I just got.
-
Breaktrhough! I'm past my 1800 calories burned for the week! 2247 calories as of today, and I may be able to manage some exercise during the weekend as well. AND... I am finally seeing some progress while standing on the scale. I was 202 lbs. when I started coming back to MFP in earnest, and I'm down to 199. As I mentioned…

No gym today, but I will take a spin class tomorrow. I should break 1800 by then, and maybe get past it the rest of the week. I had a big salad for lunch, and I doubt I'll be hungry again anytime soon. Kind of an "off" day in all regards, but tomorrow should be better.
-
I made it to the gym! 40-minute spin class (the class is 45 minutes, but I was late) and a killer 15-minute abs workout after that. 818 calories burned, according to MFP! No progress on the scale yet, but that'll come soon.
-
Brilliant! Congrats!

[/quote] No sweat <slapping knee, cracking myself up>. Groan! God will get you for that, Dee!

Made it to spin class, where I did some major sweating. MFP thinks I burned 718 calories, and who am I to argue? There's an old-fashioned scale in the men's locker room, the kind with large and small blocks you move and adjust to make the needle balance to show your weight. Usually I set the big block at 150 lbs and move…

I did not manage to "move it" yesterday (Mon., 5/2/11) but I did finish the day with 162 calories unused. Today I will make it to the gym and take spin class.
-
Thank goodness I'm too old for this!

Good morning, and happy May! Let's get this party started! I'm Steve, and I seem to have returned to MFP at exactly the right moment. I expect to make some serious progress this month. I am motivated, and now that I'm in this challenge, I am accountable to 19 other people besides myself, and there is no way i am going to…

2 hour bike ride today. MFP credits me with 1459 calories for that! I am NOT going to have all of that for dinner!
-
Thanks for letting me, and 5 other latecomers join this group. I appreciate your extending yourself to include us. I'm pumped, and ready to do soe serious work here. Steve
-
Sounds good to me. Is there still room? If so, count me in! Steve
-
I THINK I understand what that means: your weight stays the same, but you make progress in inches, clothing size, etc. Thanks for enlightening me, and congrats again.
-
Congrats on your progress. I feel a little out-of-the-loop; what does NSV stand for?
-
Raven Your meals look good, and I don't see a problem. If you have enough energy to run 5K on what you have for breakfast, leave it alone.
-
This site won't let you say *****? WTF!
-
That wasn't *****y at all! Just very realistic. Good for you! I hope to emulate your success, and I promise not to ask what your secret is. Steve
-
WOW! What a transformation! You are an inspiration, and you have every reason to be very proud of your accomplishment. Thanks for sharing. -- Steve

An article in the NY Times business section - Thursdays they have lots of tech-oriented things - had an article about online weight aids, and they mentioned MFP. I checked it out and joined. Very smart decision!

Hi, Joy. Welcome to MFP. I'm new here myself, 3rd day, but already I've found a lot of help and support here, and I'm sure you will too. Wishing you all the best. -- Steve
-
Is there a way to block the person who's harassing you? If there's not, you should report this person to MFP. Good for you for speaking up, and I wish you every success.
-
Welcome! I'm also new today. I'm finding the record-keeping much easier here than any of the other sites I've tried. I wish you all the best reaching your goals. -- Steve
-
Welcome to MFP, Tammy. I'm also new today. It's been very positive so far, and I'm sure you will get all the support you need here. Good luck! -- Steve
-
You've come to the right place. I also joined today, and it's been a very positive experience so far. I wish you all the same, and more.
-
VERY impressive progress! Congrats, and keep it up! -- Steve
