Definitely move up! And congrats on not being sore or tired anymore :) I'm on day 3 and I'm still getting my butt kicked by level 1.

Quinoa! I read all of these recipes talking about how good it is for you and it is loaded with calories. Not worth it.

139.5......I actually don't know how that's possible since I've been slackin' at the gym, but I'll take my half pound down!

Really informative post. I felt like I had a pretty good understanding, but this made it even more clear. It's hard to fight against that assumption that less calories is better, no matter what, but your explanation is perfect. Thanks!

Weighing in at 140......considering I ate out all weekend, that's pretty good, but I need to get serious now!

Sounds like you had some success here before, and you will again! Welcome back and good luck!

Not sure about the cleanse, but the pills were a horrible experience for me, and did not help me lose any weight at all. I have a pretty strong stomach, and all those pills did was make me sick for a week, despite taking them with food every time. Money down the drain. I'm all for a good cleanse, but the Quicktrim product…

I'd love to try my first Challenge! I'm fairly new and have been wanting to join a challenge. Looks like folks are weighing in on Mondays, sounds good! SW: 141 GW for April 1: 134 Final GW: 120 I'm not sure if that's realistic, but seems like a good goal! Now, time to hit the gym...

Awesome job! You look great. Keep it up :)

I'm fairly new too, and I've found this site helps a lot (and the app, if your phone allows it). Just logging in and keeping track of what I eat has already made a difference for me. Good luck and welcome to MFP!

This looks YUM! Thanks for posting a good looking recipe.

Great Job! Keep it Up

I'm fairly new as well, and I am already seeing the benefits of just checking in every day and tracking what you eat. It totally holds you accountable for what you eat and the exercise you put in. Plus I've picked up some great tips from the community. Welcome!

You look fantastic! Keep up the good work and thanks for being an inspiration for the rest of us.

You look fantastic! Looks like more than 46 lbs lost, and you we're skinny very well :) Keep up the good work. You are a great inspiration to the rest of us who are aiming to keep the momentum. GREAT JOB!

I count that an Elliptical training,so I'm curious to know if that is in accurate as well. I typically switch between the elliptical with the moving arms and the one where I can adjust the height of the ramp. Great question!

I totally hear ya. For some reason I really lost the self discipline and gained the L-B's in 2010. Need to step it up this year. I'll take a few mean friends as well. Seems like this site is a good start

Not from Vegas, but I feel extra stress about my weight/appearance every time I hit the town out there! Can only imagine how hard it would be to live there. Good luck with the self discipline and weight loss. This site seems like a good place to start. I'm new as well, and so far I'm getting a lot out of it :)

I'm new as well, and so far the site has been SO helpful, just for the calorie counter and motivational community members alone. I don't have any kids, but can totally relate to being short (5'2") and having every single pound show up. My goal weight loss is 25 lbs, and while that might not seem like a lot to some, I…

@HeartsTurtle, moving around during commercial breaks is a good one and really helps, not only that, but my house is cleaner :) I also try to watch at least half of whatever show I'm watching sitting on my big yoga ball instead of the couch. I swear it helps!

This is exactly the kind of story we all need to see. Congratulations! You look amazing, and best of luck in your continued health and success.
