Thank y'all for the input! Yes, this is just 2 week just start to get my metabolism going. No kidney issues, take daily vitamins <3

FR sent! Welcome! :flowerforyou:

I'm a nursing student in my 2nd semester of clinical and I have met allot of special people who are sick that say: ENJOY life and take care of your BODY. As a teen I never listened to my elders, I had to figure it out on my own, make the mistakes to finally learn and understand that they were right. As an adult I don't…

Thanks for the input everyone. I haven't logged in a few days because there was no point. Today I feel a lot better and made the attempt to eat and log but my stomach ain't having it! Maybe in another day or 2 it'll be better!

I've heard that you gain 4-6lbs of water weight, even tho it's hard, wait until flow is gone and then weigh yourself unless you won't be discouraged with an unexpected number. I get discouraged so I stay off the scale a few days prior and weigh myself a few days after its gone.

Yes I am seeing now that MFP is a little inaccurate, which would explain my very slow sometimes non existent weight loss after logging everything haha I am getting a heart rate monitor this week! Thanks y'all!

Another great reason to get a food scale :happy:

Thanks everyone and y'all are absolutely right, I'm over thinking it way to much it's only been 2 weeks. I dont have a food scale yet but I do have measuring cups that I use frequently. The most important thing that I need to remember is that since eating better and working out I feel way better and have more energy, I'm…

So happy for this info, I really did need it today :smile:

Thank you everyone, all of these ideas are very helpful and I'll be sure to put them to use :happy:

Thank you jfauci, those are great ideas also. I can do this!

Thanks for the great advice! Yes, I will def. work on my time management and prepare my food days in advance. Also keeping a planner for cal. intake is a great idea!

Good luck! I'm getting ready to start back up nursing school after a month long break and that's when it'll be hard, lets stay connected and motivate each other!!! Best wishes. FR sent! :happy:

Welcome! I myself have a goal of -30lbs too!!!! FR sent, best wishes :happy:

Welcome! I hope you like MFP as much as I do, this is my first time on a site like this and I find it motivating and very helpful! Best wishes on your weight loss journey! :happy:

I have the same problem after dinner, I too log in a sweet and that helps me stay on track with my calorie intake, I also eat a hard candy to curve that sweet tooth (jolly ranchers are wonderful) good luck!

Welcome! Best wishes on your weight loss journey! feel free to add me as well :)

Thank you for the words of encouragement! Best of luck to the both of you!

Welcome! Wishing you a blessed journey. Feel free to add me as well!!

Thank you! Yes I'm very excited about it, its a big step for me :happy:

Hello! I too am new to this site but not new to the idea of loosing weight after numerous failed attempts all my years. I've been in a battle with my weight since I was 12, it wasn't until a few months ago that I realized its not about the looks of being over weight but more of the wanting to just be healthy. I have…

Hey Susie, I'm new here also! Congrats on your hard work thus far and I wish you even more success in 2014! Add me if you wish :)
