    in what's your starting, current, and goal weight? Comment by dclouden September 2012
  • I have only lost 62 pounds...but I have gone from a 26/28 to 18/20 in clothes! I am more confident. I now allow myself to experience things like roller coasters without fear of embarrasment. I enjoy exercise and the feeling it gives me. The necklace I wore for my wedding now has 2 inches of space instead of being a choker.…

  • I've had my bodybugg for over a year now, and I love it. It works really well when you use it. My biggest difficulty with it is that the food diary doesn't have as many foods listed as MFP does, so inputting what you eat can be time consuming. For the most part, I use it just to track my activity and then I put that…

  • Ok, I didn't make it to Zumba Class today, BUT I get in some exercise...on the Wii, I started with Just Dance 2, moved on to Zumba, and then EA Active 2. I'm worn out but I feel accomplished.
    in Day 5! What's everyone up to today... Comment by dclouden January 2012
  • In case you were wondering, I did manage to get my exercise in yesterday. I played Just Dance 2 with my kids. I had some fun, and got a workout in....it was fun. And then...I passed out. My work schedule is killing me...its hard to get up at 5:30 to go to work every day when you've been working nights for a while. Hoping I…

  • Wait, why didnt anyone tell me this before. I should be completing my diary at like 8AM every day. :)
    in My first post... Comment by dclouden October 2011
  • I'm in the same boat, and I can only recommend staying committed to the site daily for a long time. I know for me, I have to watch and be faithful to the eating, and the exercise for a long time before I can even attempt to try it on my own.
    in I'm back and fatter than ever! Comment by dclouden October 2011
  • A lot of adults around here say please, thank you, yes sir, no ma'am, BUT we live in a military town. However, among our youth, it is much less common, unfortunately.
    in Is saying thank you lost among people? Comment by dclouden October 2011
  • Take your own advice...don't be sorry, be better. You can't change the past, and all you can do is move forward. Make your next meal a healthy one. If you want to eat/drink something extra, add some exercise. Forgive yourself and move forward. This journey is taken one step, one meal, one day at a time.
    in I overate and I'm disappointed...please help! Comment by dclouden September 2011
  • I love Peach Mango too. I've tried all flavors except Sweet Tea, and they are all ok. My least favorite is probably Fruit Punch.

  • I started my journey at 317 lbs. I signed up for MFP at 290 on March 11th, but I was just browsing. When I began actively using MFP I was about 292. This was nearly a month ago (March 21st) and to-date, I've lost 5 pounds. It's been slow going for me, but every day it gets a little better. I feel much better than I did 30…

  • I prefer to work out on an empty stomach. When I eat shortly before, it makes me ill. However, I just recently had a nutritionist tell me that you should eat something within 30 minutes of waking up. So I've been trying to make sure that I at least have some carbs for energy, either a banana, or a mini bagel with peanut…
