I'm a working student mom getting back on track and would love more friends!

Yesterday: 1. Stick with my pre-logged food. :) 2. Get through my water cup (24 oz) 3 times. :) 3. Go for a walk around the neighborhood with the kiddo when we get home. :/ My son didn't nap at daycare and fell asleep on the way home so we didn't get to go. Today: 1. Stick with my pre-logged food. 2. Get through my water…

Hello everyone. I hope you don't mind me jumping in. I love the idea of Just for Today and would like to give it a try. I'm starting small and will work my way up to more. Today: 1. Stick with my pre-logged food. 2. Get through my water cup (24 oz) 3 times. 3. Go for a walk around the neighborhood with the kiddo when we…

I'll take a crack at it. You eat healthy meals and some junk and do a dance exercise, but you aren't losing weight. So now you're afraid that you'll gain no matter what you eat. Instead, you don't eat enough and are putting your body in starvation mode so you aren't losing anything either. Yes?

A mile is a mile either way so good for you no matter what your tracker says!

Congrats! I had my son in October and gained a ton on top of what I already needed to lose so I'm right there with you. I'm always looking for other new moms to be friends with!

Good morning! What's everyone got on tap for this week? I'm enjoying some turkey sausage and strawberries this morning and trying to decide what I'm going to eat for the rest of this week. Also hoping to meet my step goal every day.

Hello, ladies! My name is Brittany. I'm 24 years old and due with my first on October 3. We're having a boy, Michael, and are currently 23w4d. Everything so far has been great. He's perfectly healthy, and we've had a pretty (happily) boring pregnancy. I went to the doctor yesterday, and they mentioned my weight gain. I've…

I just got a Flex last week and like it so far. I'd love to have more friends on there. https://www.fitbit.com/user/33QCVV

Anyone can add me. I'm recently back after 6 months of not tracking and love having MFP friends!

I think you have the right mindset. I've been on a few cruises and have never gained more than a pound or two from any of them because even though there's food all over the place, I'm moving so much. Keep in mind that just because food is there doesn't mean you absolutely have to eat it. Eat when you're hungry, pass when…

I know I can do it by the wedding. The key is doing it in time to order dresses. We're looking at styles next week so it's time to buckle down!

I'm probably heading home soon, but I'm pretty bored here as well. I just came back to MFP after a 6 month hiatus. I lost about 15 pounds at the start of the year and have gained 8 of that back so I'm starting back in. I'd like to lose another 15-18 more. I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding in September, and every other girl in…

I'm back after a 6 month hiatus and always love seeing friends on my feed.

I just came back after a 6 month hiatus and am so ready to jump back on the train and get rid of this extra weight!

I'll jump on board. I definitely need a kick start to get my butt back in gear.

I started out doing really well this year. I lost 14 pounds in 2 months and felt great. Then, I got lazy and started eating more in the evenings. I weighed the exact same for 3 weeks and lost all motivation. This morning, I stepped on the scale to a slight gain, and I knew I wasn't doing what I could to reach my goals. I…

I'm 23 and spend a good chunk of my day on here, especially during the week. Anyone is welcome to add me!

We're going to a wedding tonight which will take us 2 1/2 hours to get to so I get to leave work early! We're spending the weekend in the city so I have no idea what we'll end up doing, but it will probably involve a gun range and some pretty good food.

You are awesome!

I'm game for challenges. I do monthly workout challenges with a group of my friends that at least get me active. I've been logging everything for 2 1/2 months so I'm good on that. I've been working on drinking enough water because I can easily go all day on a cup or two tops if I don't make a conscious effort to track it.

The fact that you came on here and shared your story, your true thoughts and feelings, is so brave and something you should be proud of. I've recently realized that this journey has to be a selfish one. I think the first step is to start telling yourself how awesome you are and how you're absolutely worth it. You'll start…

I'll be friends with anyone. I'm not in college anymore, but I'm 23 so I'm close in age.

My husband and I met at a college orientation. Find some organizations that interest you so you know anyone you meet at least has a shared interest that can be a great starting point.

We don't have any pictures to share yet, but we started at the beginning of the year. He wants to lose 45 pounds total, and I want to lose 25. So far, we have lost 36 of our 70 total so we just hit halfway. I had tried MFP in the past and didn't stick with it. It's so much easier when we're both eating healthier. I'm…

I got married last June, but I'm hoping to lose weight by my first anniversary this year. :) I have friends getting married next June, and I'm just waiting on one of my best friends to get engaged and will probably be in her wedding so I want to get looking fabulous and stay that way. I also love weddings and can offer my…

I try to log what I think I'll have for dinner at the beginning of the day so I can plan the rest of my day around that. I overestimate to give myself room but know I can still have that much if I want it. For everything else, I plug it in before I eat it. Seeing how much it's going to cost out of my calorie budget helps…

Yeah! I accept requests from everybody here!

I would love to be able to wear all the adorable sundresses I have again. Right now, they're all still a bit too tight for me to feel comfortable wearing them in public.
