  • Hi and welcome. I am new as well. I have been off and on on MFP for a few months. I found my best weeks were the weeks I kept my status updated and encouraged my friends on here. Its easy to log in and track your own progress, but vieiwing other people's food diaeries (and getting dinner inspiriation) is helpful and its…
  • I LOVE her blog. Sometimes there are so many things I don't know what to chose. I have made her MacNCheese- I found it to be a bit, dry. Obvisously because you are limiting the creamyness and some of the cheese. But my fiance LOVED it. It made a Huge batch- we ate it for lunch and leftover for 3 daysa and I gave some to a…
  • hi! I'm a cheese adict. It's so bad. In life before my fitness pal- as I call it BMFP- I could easily eat a half a block of brie. In fact, I have on many occasions. I like the laughing cow wedges to use as a spread on sandwichs- but they are really "fake" super processed cheese. Instead I tend to treat myself to a really…
  • My moment was when I went with a friend to try on a wedding dress. She kept urging me to try it on and I searched the rack and noticed they didn't have my size. Like as in, the dress didn't come in "my size". I also noticed that day, I didn't know what "my size" ACTUALLY was. I have not bought pants in an actual size in 2…

  • I hear ya on the "having fun once in a while" I have cut out all booze during the week- espcially wine with dinner. When I do drink here is my go to cocktail (I stole it from my old roomie that was a nutritionist) Club Soda- Flavored Vodka and one teeny tiny splash of cran juice. Or stick to white wine. I agree with the…
  • Keep your head up. All that working out you are probably building muscle and retaining water. I wouldn't get on the scale again until next week. Weigh yourself once a week- weight fluctuates so much. Feel free to add me as a friend if you need some encouragement!
  • Ill have to second edamame. And String cheese. YUM
  • Wow you have been an inspiration to me. I would love to lose 80 lbs in the amoutn of time that you did it. But I know it is going to take hard work and dedication. There is one thing, that you said that I think will stick with me my entire life. "Every choice you make in how you move your body and what you feed your body…
  • Omg awesome inspiration! You look great- -and 15 years younger!!
  • Scarlett Johansen and Christina Hendricks
  • Way to go! You look awesome. I am around your same starting weight- and feel I hold my weight the same way you do in my arms and face (as in your photo)... SO its inspiring to me to see your pics at 200.
  • Welcome to MFP. I'm new here too, but I find that its simple resources are really invalueable. The support helps. If I eat bad, or dont want to work out- everyone is on here to tell you to keep pushing through it. FEel free to friend me, its great for the support!
  • I know the feeling! I havent stepped on a scale in so long!! ahh its scary. You are taking the first step in the right direction :) Feel free to friend me, I love to give (and get) inspiration :)
