I have lost weight on both, however I like counting calories better. Good luck on your new journey. I originally lost around 56 pounds, in a little over a year, about 8 1/2 years ago. But I haven't been counting lately, or on mfp. I am planning on getting back to counting and losing.

I can't complete the day every time I push to close out day it says dismiss, and go to main server. Last 2 days are not completed

Goodluck on getting your health better!

I took Xenical years ago, it was not helpful for me, plus expensive. I also had the nasty sharting.I didn't take it long. I took off 57 pounds on MFP, counting calories, and alittle walking in alittle over a year.

Height 5'5 Weight 199 Thigh 23.5" Calf 14.5" Not as bad as I thought for me at my weight.

I purposely started over, ending my streak, I really needed to start fresh, plus I was supporting a friend who lost her streak. I wasn't losing, so I decided yesterday was the day, to get serious again,stayed within my goal and got my steps in. I need to lose about 35 more pounds, before I decide my overall goal, which is…

Starting over again too. I have gained back about 23 pounds, of the 57 lost. I have just been maintaining the past few years, the weight I gained. Time to lose that and then some, I need to get back my willpower and strong motivation, last time everything just clicked.

If it is really effecting you and disappointing you ,try once every 2 weeks. I would make sure to keep my calories, in a depicit. A lot of people have that same problem with the scale, obsessing over it and the number.

Thank you Linder, for telling us, Marie was such a wonderful role model, she was always trying new things, different diets, new gadgets to cook and prepare with and with a positive attitude, plus staying young at heart. She was funny talking about rooting her football quarterback and team on. She will be missed. Janice

That's a good first weeks loss, keep doing what you been doing. Congratulations

I have 2067 days, hard to believe over 5 1/2 years. Originally down 57 pounds, but now up 20 pounds. Even though I am up, I feel logging has kept most of it off.

HI Marie, my sweet friend, that's nice that your about to move into your new place. I'm sure you'll have some activities there you can do and enjoy with your hubby. I hope you meet some nice people there. Goodluck on your new journey. Love Janice

Keep up the great job, my fitness pal is a great site to lose weight and free. I basically just read a lot on the community area, for information and tips. I lost 57 pounds.

HI Everyone, glad to hear all of you are doing well. Marie, you have really lost some weight, good for you. I haven't lost anymore, myself. I have been doing ok went to cancer doctor last month, and all is good. I have been babysitting my grandkids some, we went to my other grand babies 1st birthday party, a couple weeks…

I like general tso chicken ,an egg roll and fried rice, I normally eat half of it, because I get full. Not exactly sure of calories, but it's like 500 calories. Not a fan of steamed dumplings or lo mein, or water chestnuts.

Exercise less and try less water. Maybe it's water weight. Plus since you don't eat back any exercise calories, maybe not eating enough. Just putting a couple thoughts out there, change things up in some way.

Congratulations on your loss. I would think the eggs would be good all weekend if in cooler, even if it has melted, still cold. You can eat some easy fruits like bananas, grapes or apples, or some veggies like baby carrots, broccoli or cauliflower and dip them in some dressing or dip. Beef jerky is handy, maybe not as…

Good luck on your fresh start, I started being serious again last week. You will feel better just knowing you are a least trying and not just whining about it. Like I did.

One day at a time is the key, when I am staying within my calories, I feel so much better, when I am doing what it takes to lose. In 2014, I said this was the year for me, I lost 57 pounds, at my lowest. Then stayed around there for a couple of years.Then health issues and I slowly gained back twenty pounds. I continue to…

Marie, I 'm happy to hear you and Jerry are doing good, and that your daughter, Alice is taking care of you both. I hope the physical therapy is helping. Glad to hear from you. Janice

Thank you, Nancy.

Thank you, Connie.

Happy Valentines Day everyone. I went to the doctor yesterday and everything is still good. I hope everyone else is doing well. Janice

Marie, Sorry to hear you had that kind of trouble. When do you move into your assisted living? I think it will be great for you and your hubby, with care always available. Love, Janice

Hi, I was thinking Golden Sneakers, but Silver Sneakers might be right. My daughter and the baby are coming home today, both of them doing good. I went up again yesterday with my husband, he opened his eyes, they are real dark and with his dark hair, so cute. Most of the grandbabies have lighter hair. Gotta go. Janice

Here' s Christian, at our Christmas, he wasn't feeling well.

Hi, the baby arrived safely and my daughter is good to. He has all kinds of dark hair. Hard to believe I have 2 new grandbabies.They are adorable. Deacon weighed 7lbs 13 oz 19inches long. I am trying to send a picture, but so far I cant. Janice

Nancy, I am concerned too about Marie, I hope everything is okay. Maybe she just hasn't been online latey. Janice
