I am also back on MFP with a similar story. I also live in NorCal (East Bay) and looking forward to getting it right this time. Nice to meet you!

how do you get a phone notification?

Thanks for sharing. What your saying makes so much sense.

YES...deja vu is right. Yes I have been here before. Its all good though..better here than not here, right. Trying to keep it off this time...I must say, at least thanks to the good information and friends that I have made here, I have no doubt that I can be successfull at losing, because I have done it before. I want to…

This works for me. It is so much easier to stay on point and in control when I track my weekly goals IN ADDITION to my daily ones. Good Luck!!

I know the feeling. We have pizza day once a month. And usually it falls on a day that I wasnt prepared with a lunch and I am super hungry. Im not gonna lie, I have only been able to pass one time. All the other times I just eat a slice of the veggie pizza (luckily its in the MFP database), and call it a day. I try not to…

You look great and very happy as well! The glasses are super cute also! I started at around the same weight and I cant wait to see what I will look like at 170! It seems like its sooo far away for me, seeing your success is very inspirational! Keep up the great work!

What a wonderful feeling! CONGRATS!!! And I'm loving sexy Kermit!!

Not the recipe for disaster, the chocolate cake in a mug one...

I am so trying this recipe....

Thanks for the quick replies! So I entered my TDEE-20% into my MFP goals, and set my macros accordingly. Now I know NOT to eat back my exercise calories.THANKS GUYS!!

Wow, from Super Morbidly Obese to Super Inspirational Triathlete! Thanks for the encouraging post! You look fantastic!

I know u have heard this a million times, but im Sure you will never get tired of it...congratulations!!! And thanks for the motivation. One day i will be able to share my story and inspire like so many others I have met here..

I know exactly what u mean I am experiencing the same thing and its so discouraging. I was doing well also, losing weight, starting to enjoy exercise and learning so much. Then somehow I took a break for a weekend getaway and couldnt get back on track when the weekend ended. I am getting my *kitten* back on point now and…

Thanks for that valuable info. I keep planning on getting either a fit bit or HRM, but then life happens and so far I still dont have either. I am going to download these apps and see how they work for me.

This thread was a big help. Been considering getting a FitBit and now I am pretty sure that I will be ordering one this friday (payday$$). Just been doing a bit of research making sure that it was the right choice for me. At this point in my journey, its seems like I can't go wrong with it! Now I can't wait to get it. It…

You Look fantastic! Your height and starting weight are similar to mine. You are losing soooo much faster than I am! Well everyone is different i guess! Keep up the great work, imagine how much you will lose if you start exercising! Congrats!

You look fantastic! I know what you mean by still feeling the same fatness. I have lost a few pounds, but I have not yet taken any before after shots. It may sound stupid, but the reason is because I don't want to be dissapointed at the the results. I have always hated taking pictures as it is, so it's hard to look at them…

I totally agree with you about being BLESSED to have found MFP. It has done wonders in motivating me and I have met some super positive people that are very encouraging. I want to say congratulations on all of your success. You remind people that it really is possible to lose alot of weight and become fit! I have had a not…

You look great! And yes, younger too! I love the pic in the colorful dress! You should be very proud of yourself and good for you for posting these pics that inspire us all, "whippersnappers" on up! Congratulations! :flowerforyou:

Okay! Tacos are one of my faves too, and so easy to make and keep healthy. I get the fresh corn tortillas (sometimes still warm!) and I warm them in a pan with no oil. This really brings out the real flavor of the corn. I use ground turkey, ground chicken, or chicken breast, and you really only need to use a little meat…

Great results! I have never done measurements like that, you make me want to do the same and see what happens! Welcome to MFP, it has helped me in so many ways! Good luck on your journey!

Good for you! Congratulations! Can't wait to get there...keep up all that dedication and hard work!

This will be my first challenge since joining MFP. It is just what I am needing to give me an extra boost! SW as of 08/05: Goal for Aug: Self-Challenge: Workout for 1 hr, 5 days a week Self-Challenge2: Eat all of my calories! :tongue: LET'S DO THIS! :flowerforyou:

I just started working a graveyard shift, and according to the posts I have read it sounds like this type of schedule is hindering weight loss efforts. But if you just totally reverse your schedule, whats the big deal? Is there anyone who is working graves that is not having a problem losing weight? I plan on just sleeping…

Came across this old thread, and my first thought was one of a drug dealing, gang affiliated "hoodstar". I was wondering, "they have time to go to the gym?" And then I read the previous thread referring to the paid employee that is planted by the gym to attract male members...this is actually a known term and practice?…

A car tire and ALMOST the amount of pizza an average person eats in a year!

Sounds like you have the right attitude. My prayers and thoughts are definitely with you, You really make me think about how even though we are on MFP trying to plan and set goals and such, but you never know when life will throw you a curve ball. Life is so unpredictable, but God never puts more on our plate than we can…

You are an inspiration, and your success keeps me pushin. You need to be DROPPIN IT LIKE ITS HOT!! (lol...for real though, you did that!
