I am not a professional baker at all, and think you must have a TON of strength. Right before I started my MFP journey officially, I was cupcaking every week, and it gained some steam. Now I have several people messaging me every few days asking where the cupcakes are. I just CAN'T do it right now because unless I make my…

This really makes so much sense today.... Yesterday I was so off I didn't do my second workout and gave-in to a chocolate chip lava cake, went over my cals by about 300... I also was so tired yesterday I could barely keep my eyes open... This morning TOM arrived.... Thats IT TOM, I'm kicking yo *kitten* today!

Nervous about Monday, although I'm sure I'll be nervous every Monday ;) I've had a decent week up until Thursday when I over-extended my knee...I still completed my friday C25K workout (although it was a little slower than normal). Went over for the first time this week yesterday. I was so tired, and my cravings were BAD,…

Well I for one outweigh, I think all of the ladies on BL... I have 1530 cals per day, Sometimes I burn 500, sometimes over 1000, Sometimes I eat some back, sometimes I don't... I think I will keep that up until I hit a plateau then re-adjust... Also, I know its a show, but it IS these people's real life... I certanly don't…

I maintained my weight with my daughter, so when she was born I lost 20lbs. Just do as much light/moderate exercise as possible, and eat a healthy balanced diet... Just make sure you don't go below 1200cals, and make sure you get enough iron.

Up the exercise, and don't cut your calories under 1200!! Get lots of fiber, eat veggies when you can, and have a GOOD breakfast with protien to help curb cravings all day :)

Well, its probably better you didn't then.

Loving seeing everyone elses number :)

WEIGH IN!! 279.3 - lost 3.7lbs

I run a daycare in my home from 8am-5pm, and have a 6m old, and a 2y old. I get up at 6, and right now I have been just walking for 40 min every morning, but I think I'm going to switch it up and do some of my DVDs, WAY higher calorie burn. I am also doing c25k during "quiet or nap time". I have someone who works with me…

I also agree with the excersize. You're more likely to succeed if you don't go too extreme in calorie restriction. I have a turbo jam dvd that I do that burns 1000 calories, its pretty intense, but then I can still eat the foods I like and lose weight! It will also help tighten up skin as it loosens during weight-loss :)

I went over on Friday by 600 Cals. It was my huband and I's anniversary :) Yes I logged it. I want to be honest with myself so that I can have the best chance at succeeding. I won't call mine a cheat day, because that implies that I did something wrong, but I will call it a splurge day. Now I know how much I need to make…

Monday mornings, I'm doing the New year, New us challenge. I wasn't weighing too often before... I go in spurts of weighing every day, and not weighing at all... I was trying to do wednesdays, but I haven't actually made it a whole week yet.... This next week that will be my goal!

Excited for tomorrow morning!! I'm hoping it will day 281!! ** I just found all my old Turbo Jam DVDs, so yesterday I did the 48min one... MAN am I sore today :) burned 1000 cals doing it though... no pain, no gain right? :)

Fabulous! You look great!! Also, I love your lia sophia necklace, I have the same one ;)

ONLY on MFP, can you say "I'm so happy to hear you are overweight!!". I can't wait to be overweight too!!

Awesome Spreadsheet! Even just looking at it is motivating!! (I think I'll go work-out now) ;)

I'm in! Start weight : 283 Being 258 or lighter would be a great first step for me on MFP. I turn 30 next June, and I wanna feel good about it!

Previously I lost 90lbs and kept it off for 4 years, and time and exercise helped tighten it back up, but it did take a quite a while to "settle in".

Agree, I try to do the same. I like to plan treats ahead and balance my day accordingly. It helps me keep an eye on my portions and not feel deprived of anything.

I was (as the title said) looking for other people who may be doing the same thing.

Yeah, I don't need anyone judging me... Maybe its just where I live, but most women who I tell around here tend to sabotage, or question, or try to get you to do it their way, or whatever, so I'm just gonna do my thing, with my friend, and see how it turns out. My hubby will be supportive... but he hears about it (usually)…

He`ll notice eventually and I won`t always "hide" it. I just want to get going and serious first. Some may not agree, but when I have the strength to only eat half, or throw away something that I consider a weakness, I feel like it gives me more power. Like I have conquored something. The only meal we all eat together is…

I too, am also trying C25K. I completed w1d3 today, although not without challenges. My treadmill started going crazy 6 runs in, and I had to get off to fix it... but 5 min later when I got back on I ran 2min x 3 times, instead of 1min. Just gotta keep going! :)

No, not being a jerkface, lol. I was just caught a little off-guard with so many people saying that I need to tell him, or tell so many people... I was more hoping to see if anyone else out there was doing something similar.

I have tried... it's just not for me. I've ended up looking like an idiot too many times. I am accountable to myself. I have lost 90lbs in the past, and kept it off for 3 years. It's just something that I feel better keeping to myself I think. Like its my little secret... I am a super open person in general, so I think…

I bought myself a fancy new water bottle, I think it holds 900ml? I keep it with me and re-fill it throughout the day. I try for 3-4 or them :)

Thank you! P.S. I worked the Caramilk into my day and only ate half before throwing the rest out...

How am I sabbotaging? I have someone who sees me everyday, for more of the day than he does, who helps keep me on track.

I'm doing it in secret (ish) just because I feel like every other week, I`m saying I`m on a diet or something. THIS time I just want to show him. I think it would be very rewarding to have him just notice one day. I have a staff person who works with me 30-40 hours a week and we are doing it together, so I have someone who…
