I got a RAISE and PROMOTION! Being a part of MFP and this group has helped me gain my self-esteem back while losing :) Thanks for your support in this!

Etherlily glad to hear you are doing better this morning. great job on the housekeeping inspections! Pixy, I'm actually headed to my bosses office right now to ask for a raise, I'm scared to death. She sent my evaluation to me earlier this week and it's 'exceptional' so, I hope I can use that as leverage.

I didnt see the challenge until this morning. So, I went and looked at yesterday... not so good. made me think about these 2 Macros. I need to pay better attention to those.

Welcome to the group! I'm fairly new here to and have enjoyed reading and learning from some posts. It also helps me stay accountable :) That's what I need to lose my 100+. So we can all do this together.

HI, I'm Crystal, I'm fairly new to this group and have found that the people here are great supporters! Welcome~

This. Also, thank you for sharing. I have recently been diagnosed with PCOS and am struggling to find what works for me. I am getting my life back, and will not sit on the side lines!

As I read the posts and replies of encourgment, it's like I'm reading a conversation that I started! WOW! Etherlily, I struggle with sodium intake. There are days I think I'm doing ok and when I look at the food diary, it's showing something different. It's very frustrating. I'm seeing one doctor after another right now…

Thank you!

I woul like to be able to comfortable cross my legs. My goal is to do this by the end of summer!

Sunday, what a lovely Sunday. It is quiet it the McNett household. Part of me wants to relax with the family and the other part sees things to be done. Hmmm.... what shall I do? I now hear my son playing with the toddler vacuum, I may join him with the 'adult' vacuum and get some housework done. Mango, I hope the pup feels…

Dward, thank you. that was just what I needed to read. :happy:

This is my first time putting my weight out there were people see it. It's scary to me putting myself out here like this. But I see a great community of supporters and motivators. My Numbers: SW: 266 CW: 258.4 GW: 252 LTGW: 145 Weigh ins: 1/3/14= 260 1/10/14= 258.4 1/17/14= 1/24/14= 1/31/14=

I've started out jogging at about a 3.5 mph pace. I jog to songs, right now I'm up to about 4 songs without stopping. I started out with 1 song. Before I gained the wieght I was very active, but never liked running. Now, I thought I'd give it a try. I'm so excited that I can run, which motivates me to continue running.…

That has to be such a great feeling! Thanks for posting, I realy needed a 'pick me up' this morning.

I have more than 100#'s to lose. I've been working on it since I had my Twins over a year ago. I've sent friend requests and am looking for more people to help and be helped during this journey.

I just put the kids to bed, and am now enjoying some ME time on the computer. I'm gearing up this week for a fast paced work week. Happy Sunday!

I've been seeing a counselor who works with weight loss issues. in this we found the root causes and I am now working on overcoming those issues. It was and is difficult for me to bring back these issues and confront them. But, it's the best thing I've done so far. There are a couple of books I've read, "50 ways to self…

You look fantastic! Great job!

Thanks for the book suggestion.

I love these. I will add to my list of mantra's for when I'm feeling down.

HI! Glad to see you on MFP! I struggle everyday with PCOS and its side effects. I havent found what works for me yet, but I am in the process of learning. While I'm working the types of food work best for me I make sure I get to the gym at least 3-4 days a week. On the other days I remain active at home and in my…

added. I love new friends to help with accountability! It's a hard road, but with help it's possible

Timber - Love the intro

Seeing all these inspiring stories are great for motivation! I had twins in July 2012 and have the overhang. I also earned my "stripes" during this time, I was rounder than I was tall. It's slowly going away as I workout and eat healthy. Right now it is difficult to find clothes to fit, but I'm ok with that knowing I'm…

I can jog for 5 minutes without stopping and without feeling like I'm going to die!

I woulld love to join also. clmcnett1

These are great tips! I'm a 'new' runner also. I mostly do short spurt runs for warm up to my work out. But I want to start running 5k's
