I just finished a two day cleanse. Day one is always rough for me, I would not even think of exercising! For some reason, I always feel great on day two! I jogged 2 miles. I just made sure I was super hydrated before and after the run. The best thing to do is listen to your body and never push yourself on a cleanse day…

You look amazing! Not only is the weight loss noticeable, but you look like you have been working out. Great job!

Cortelli you are so right! I use plain seltzer and fresh fruit instead.

Alcohol whether it be beer, wine, or gin, has been a major obstacle in my weight loss. I would love to say that I'll just cut it out completely, that just isn't honest. I have gotten to the point where I am balancing a healthy diet, meeting most of my nutritional goals, and allowing a few drinks while staying within my…

Coconut water drinks are low in calories ( 40-50 Kcal per 8oz) and can contain 450-600mg of potassium. They make a great base for smoothies. We recommend it as a non food option for our chemotherapy patients who are potassium deficient.

Well not since 2008….cheesesteaks w/ extra cheese, mozzarella sticks, wings. Ugh that stuff would kill me now!

Weigh- in this morning= 213.2 lbs! I'm down 1.8 lbs. :glasses:

Thanks for compiling the list Spillano! Reported weigh-ins will help to keep me focused. :smile:

Don't give up Lacostar! We have a long way to go but this challenge will motivate ! I had a good day but need to curb my snacks ( wine)…… good luck!

Haha! I'll put up with your love of the Leafs…….maybe. :noway:

:sad: fellow hockey fan doesn't rank, eh?

That's awesome! Congratulations. I need to remember these types of NSV's when I hit a plateau. Thanks for reminding me it's not just what the number on the scale says, it's those small victories I have accomplished that will keep me going!

I need this!! I have been stalled since Easter. I would love to lose 10-15lbs during this challenge. SW= 236 CW=215 GW=200 I look forward to this challenge! Good luck everyone. :smile:

Hi! My nutritionist calls me a flexitarian. I try to eat vegan at least 1-2 days per week but still include some fish and dairy into my diet. I struggle with this but hope to one day be completely animal-free. Please add me, I could use the inspiration!

I'm soon-to-be 42 and new to MFP. My highest weight was 286 and I lost 60 lbs doing WW. I have since outgrown WW, gained back 20 lbs before joining MFP. Now I'm back on track and looking for others who share the same interests and goals.

Congratulations! You look amazing...and happy! I am 13 lbs away from the same milestone and cannot wait. It has been about 7 years since I have been under 200, my highest was 286. Hope to see you in" onderland" soon. Keep up the great work.

I have found that you can freshen up the taste of green smoothies by adding fresh spinach, cucumber, lettuce, fresh parsley and/or fresh lemon. Any of these ingredients help to freshen up the taste, and decrease bitterness, without adding carbs!

I agree that WW pushes processed, packaged foods. I came to MFP because I can incorporate almost any food into my daily diary, barcode or not. I don't eat out as much as I used to but when I do it is really great to find nutritional information here.

Congratulations! It is such a great feeling to fit into the next size down! I have a few pairs of jeans that are "mocking" me, lol. I cannot wait to be able to get into them! Great job!

Awesome! Keep it up, you look great. : )

Oh how I wish I were a cheap date! Unfortunately I can handle my booze. So now I try to limit myself to weekends only and plan accordingly. One bottle of wine is approximately 750Kcal, so I eat lots of salad on the weekends!
