all these horror stories - good that you all are talking about it. A lot of people would jump in not knowing what they're getting into. :(

I am big on apple cider vinegar too. I don't even take the organic one. BUt it's helped me with my acid reflux and sinus allergies. I just moved here in the States and being in the allergy capital of the Ohio Valley is not helping. Finally my sister's friend - a doctor - told me to try out apple cider vinegar. I take a…

I agree with Hailey. Mine seems to swing within 1.5 lbs off every week too! It doesn't matter so long as we're losing. :) I'm still happy with the results!

you are not alone! wish you all the luck in the world!!! We can do this together! :)

I'm afraid your heart will suffer if you don't nourish your body enough, Don't be scared. You are working out the food anyway, so just take it easy, okay?

Rice Krispie Treats!

is there a 24-hour gym close to where you live or work? for some, that has really helped a lot. Or try healthy habits like, taking stairs, instead of the elevator. Walking and stretching every 15 minutes, walking for about 30mins. Don't pressure yourself right away, because that may lead to disappointments. Good luck!

sounds yummy!

HI! I have been on here for four weeks now and been on a yo-yo for about 2-4 pounds lost so far. No matter what happens, I promise to keep trying and hopefully lose some more in the coming days. Let's all hang in there and congrats on the 6 pounds you blasted off!!! :)

Hey all!!! YIKES for me last weigh-in. I gained 2 lbs!!! LOL I am not really worried because I don't feel any worse. I, in fact, can see a tiny hint of collarbone - so I may have just gained some musle mass due to the exercises. I would be honest, I was a little disappointed, but, I am not going to let that stop me. What…

Wow, melanie! You rock!

*hugs to you* I know the feeling and it's normal. Just keep your face here on MFP ok? We will be here for you to cheer you on! The weight loss stories on Discovery Health always has a positive effect on me. Whatever happens, hang in there and just keep going, ok?

I like dance hiphop when I work out and I do use my mp3 - considering the lyrics - and having kids around. :) I can't give it up though. It's my "getting started" playlist so I will stick with it. I got most of the BEP and PCD albums, and the Dirty Dancing 2 Soundtrack.

I lost 3 pounds my first week, then 1 pound the 2nd week... This is my third week and truly - I gained 2pounds. YUCK! But it's true, it may be the water weight just shedding. I talked to my friend who's a fitness instructor and she told me not to panic. The first 4 weeks usually puts your body in a confused mood so…

And by the way - I wish I could join you all in your running too. But my knees feel like they're going to give in. So until I get a little more comfortable with my weight, I am not going to risk it. It runs in my family - chronic knee dislocation - and I have had 3 already. Good thing is I recover and am able to walk after…

I'm back too!!! Juts finished my stretching and calisthenics and boy I am worn out! I just skipped a day - yesterday - as I have reached my goal of working out 3-4x a week. It's amazing how skipping one day can do to your energy level. It's like rebuilding it all over again. I am pooped! What I had today so far: Bfast:…

Trish: No not at all! I like it when I hear people say "Happy Sabbath". Going to church is one thing I treasure in all my week. My faith is very important to me and I even pray for my weight loss everyday. I think God is teaching me to persevere as it has been a huge effort lately. You know how it is when age just catches…

Welcome!!! Just on to my third week and I am loving this site! Enjoy and don't hesitate to ask or vent - that's what we're all here for!

Hello everyone! I am glad to be back on here. It's been too cold for me to even attempt to go out... BRRRRRRR... Trish: I am an Adventist. My hubby is Baptist and since I moved here from my country, we have decided to go to the church where his family goes to. It's been an amazing adventure so frar. People there are so…

Hey, you're not alone! I have been through countless yoyos in weight loss. These days, I feel sluggish and it may be several reasons why - the cold winter, the pill, and bad eating habits. I read a blog advise that in order to keep energy up especially in the winter time, one must have soup at least once a day. Don't…

Awesome!!! CONGRATS AND WELCOME TO MFP!!!

Has anyone of you used Metabothin? My brother is a fitness instructor and he swears by it. What is Advocare? And how much does it cost?b

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Currently brewing Celestial Raspberry Green Tea. Will eat it later with my hard-boiled egg and 1 pc of wild berry muffin. Plan for the day: clean the floors - I have wooden floors in the living room which gives me some form of workout when I polish it. NICE!!! clean the bethroom - love a…

Thank you for all your replies. I am still on the trial and error stage. I just moved here in the States and the supplements that I had back in my country are mostly not here. I mostly have mild anemia so yeah Betty I know what you mean. I currently take the following daily: iron - 650mg cod liver oil super B complex green…

Success for this week: Blew off one pound - better than nothing. This winter weather is not helping and I am going through another bout of mood swings as I just started with my new pack of BCP. Hubby is not a happy camper. I want to be spoiled but he is busy - working at home - HAH!!! I am still trying to motivate myself…

I am a SAHM too and loving it! Just a little bit challenged with weight loss but I am sure trying to get back to shape!

I am a size 8-10 and believe it or not, if I just have to rely on the BMI - I am very much obese! I am 5'2" and I am about 50 pounds way over my ideal weight. What can I do, even when I was a size 2, I was still even on the ceiling of my ideal weight if basing it on my height. It is crazy. Even my OB was shocked when she…

I would suggest calling the doc first. I went thru that when I had IUD and turned out it was an allergic reaction. Some of my friends experience that and it's because of the pill. So many speculations, so the best way would be to check with your doctor.
