Hi and welcome to MFP! I think the hardest thing about it all is counting the calories. I don't have much time throughout the day to log in everything I eat. I've got 4 kids and the two youngest are still at home. Anyway, what I started doing is planning out exactly what I'm going to eat, log it when I log my exercise in…

My favorite workout videos are the Leslie Sansone walking workouts. They go from 1 mile on up. You can intensify or not. You can do them online too. Good luck and congratulations! =)

Weight watchers has some small packs of different chocolate treats, if you can keep yourself to a serving size, they are around 100-150 cals. Or the South Beach Diet snack packs, they have some good ones. I am just a week after you are and I didn't do so well this time. Habits take time to become a habit, so keep working…

Welcome to MFP! I have about 70 lbs to lose, most of that is baby weight. I have 4 kids, 9, 6, 2, and 4 mo. This site has really helped me to get on track. I'm nowhere near perfect at it, but I do feel better. Feel free to add me!

I started out tracking my food, then stopped cuz it felt like I was on the computer all the time. I stopped, thinking I could just track the exercises and moderate my eating. Didn't work for me. I don't always track, but I'm getting more into the habit. It helps me to keep on track when I actually log in my food. Good luck!

Welcome! I've got a lot to lose too, and the support here is wonderful. Feel free to add me. =)

I'm doing the Leslie Sansone 4 mile walk slim dvd today.

Hi all. I'm back on MFP after a rough pregnancy. I have 4 kids (3 boys and my newborn is a girl!), I have 70 lbs to lose. My favorite work out has always been the Leslie Sansone videos. I lost 19 lbs after my oldest was born, just doing the walking vids, not changing how I ate. So now I've been pretty consistent about…

Hi and welcome! Feel free to add me. I have 70 lbs to shed. I'm working on portion control and Leslie Sansone workouts. Today is the start of week 2. =)

Congrats, I think attitude is half the battle! =)

i know i haven't been on here in quite a while, was trying something different that didn't work like i thought, so back here and getting motivated again.

Don't give up! Keep in mind why you wanted to lose the weight in the first place. I know it's hard. I find myself slipping a lot too. But I look at my 3 energetic kids, my sisters and mom, and just get back in the game again. I sent you a request. =)

Welcome! I joined this winter and have found this site and everyone on it a great encouragement. Feel free to add me. =)

I agree with what everyone else said...listen to your trainer. It's important to just get moving. Try not to be discouraged by idiots. We on mfp will encourage you all the way! Great job on the weight loss. =)

I meant to add: feel free to add me! =)

Welcome! This site has helped me to be more consistent with my exercising. I've got 3 boys, 7, 4, and 8 months old. Good luck! =)

I love her videos! I usually log it under walking, 4 mph. I do the regular 2 mile walk mostly, and add some of the other ones in for variety.

Hi and welcome! I have about the same to lose, maybe a few more. This site has been such a help, and there is so much support. Add me if you'd like. =)

Not sure how to respond to this, except that you need friends to support your decisions and be there for you no matter what. I've sent you a friend request. This site has helped me so much, and the support here is awesome. I wish you all the best in your journey!

I eat a lot of low-fat dairy, usually light n fit yogurt or cottage cheese. But I've also added the Special K protein water mixes. Only 30 cals. 5 g of protein. Nuts are good too.
