Hi there!! I live in Woodstock Ga Neighbor! I am 44 and just starting my journey. Let's kill this!

This thread is great inspiration for me to get out of my dinner rut. Thanks to all of you!

I want to play!!! I look forward to challenging myself!

I have recently stumbled on to the whole 30 and really want to give a go. The idea of taking away the processed and sugared foods sounds so great to me. My problem is that I do not know how to cook and live that way and it scares me a little to try. Hearing that you get you get used to not eating things like cheese gives…

As a reformed soda addict I do not let my child (3yrs old) drink soda. Chocolate milk is her treat. I know that as she gets older she will taste it and have it occasionally but as of right now I do not know what age that will be. I do however know it will be beyond the happy meals years. I think it is absurd that anyone…

Pull something from the carpet other than the reddish or purple colors. If you get a color that is in carpet it will pull those colors ( you will notice them more) and the purple will not look so intense. If you go for the redish purple colors than it will make the carpet stand out more. your choice.

There is no reason to feel silly, it was a great milestone for you, made you feel great about yourself and has you excited about exercising!! Great job getting to the gym in the first place.

I found that if I posted on MFP before I eat, I eat less. I am more aware of the numbers and what I am putting into my body. One of the reasons people gain the weight in the first place is because they eat without thinking. You have to focus on what you are eating. Snacking, watching if front of the tv, or while running…

You are fantastic!!! I love your determination

Thank you everyone for your comments. It feels great to get some support and great advice.

Thank you for your post. I had similar experience at a tattoo shop. I went in with my ex boy friend and they fought right in front of me for him. Neither wanted to do mine and I was only 200 lbs back then. I can't wait until I get back to that point

My husband keeps trying to get me to put myself out there and I am finally taking his advise. I will just have to overlook the crazy stares until I loose enough weight for them to stop happening. I love that you are talking to the burrito boy. I think small little flirtations with people are the ones that create the…

We are most afraid of things we no nothing about. Go to the doctor!!! Find your starting place. Then one day at a time force yourself to work out for 20 min. You will start to feel better and have more energy ( in as little as a week). As long as you stick with it the rest will follow. You will see results and push…

Great Job!! You have done fantastic.

It has happened to me. I was recently taken off caffeine all together because it was messing up my gallbladder. The doc told me it is a diuretic. I would stop drinking it before it does any more damage to you.

I am in

bump

I am in , I also need some accountability and some motivation

Me Too!!! Not only to be healthy and skinny but to say I DID IT!!!

Hi, I love this thread and would love to be a part of it!! I go on vacation in 23 days and need to loose about an inch to fit into a pair of jeans I want to take with me. Here I go....

Gilmore Girls, I still watch the reruns that come on everyday. I DVR them.

Great job!!!! As a side note, lifting weights as you are losing weigh helps to keep the flappy parts from becoming flappy. I won't totally get rid of it but it does help, and not for the reason the silly doc said. Keep up the good work!

I have been waiting for a challenge like this one, please add me.

HI Everyone, I weighed in this morning too so I will use this as my start weight for this challenge. cw: 323.6

Hi Everyone, I am coming back to MFP after losing focus and this time I am going to rock at it. Last time I was only looking at staying under my calories and not really working out. This time I plan on hitting calories in and out daily goals. I was watching Extreme Weighloss the other night and this girl who was so…

I am in!!! We can do this

Bump these are great!

It is so much easier to do my workouts in the am. It gets it out of the way and has me feeling great all day. No one wants to work after a long day.

Hi, My name is Heather and I am now back on MFP. In my head I thought about losing weight and calories everyday. Somewhere in the middle of the day I just stopped paying attention. Over the past couple of days I have noticed that I am getting bigger. My chin is hanging lower and my pants are getting tighter. Today I was…
