Way to go! Isn't it great how a little improvement can make us feel so much better about our self and then we want to keep on ogoing.This a.m. I tried on a pair of pants I bought last fall hoping that I'd fit them if I lost a little weight, well they fit now. I felt so good that I walked 5 miles instead of the usual 2.5.…

I kind of feel the same, I've lost 18 lbs (hopefully more that was 2 weeks ago when I last weighed myself) and no one has noticed. Then I remind myself that I'm not doing it for anyone else, just for me, and I'm feeling better, have more energy and I've gone down a pant size. I guess because I have so much to lose -around…

Plan your day to include healthy snacks, no need to go hungry and think about food constantly. Drink water first to see if you are thirsty or really hungry. I have snacks every day otherwise I'd just get too hungry by mealtime and over eat. Good luck.

WOW! You are amazing.

Lookin good, great job!

I'm really starting to hate the Slimband adds on here and I'm not even sure why.

Hi, I still have 100lbs to lose, so I'm in for the long haul too. I'm glad that you will discuss diuretics with your Dr. as they should only be used if clinicly indicated(for example hypertension or congestive heart disease). I think that once you start logging your food, eating healthier (esp lowering sodium),etc…

I work in a nursing home - I love the parents but sometimes the kids can drive me crazy!!!!!

The last 10 days my blood pressure has been lower, today 128/68, another day 119/68. A few times I've even felt a little woozy because it's never that low even with the medication I've been on for a few years. I check it daily at work so my Dr. can review on my next appointment. Because I've only lost 15 lbs so far I think…

Wow, you are one of my heroes!

No you aren't crazy or wrong. I would be very upset too. Maybe she was trying to help you but she sure wasn't listening to you. I would take this as a learning experience , but remember that every doctor doesn't always know the best info on nutrition and losing weight. It sounds like you are doing really well with your…

Nice work, I like cake decorating.

You can find more supportive friends here. We're all in it together. Don't think of it being your last good meal but the start of doing something good and positive for yourself.

RN/RPN, I work in a nursing home and love the people I care for.

I would often wake up on a diet and fail by that night too, I don't know how many times. This time seems to be diiferent. I found MFP while searching apps on my BlackBerry and thought I can do that. But. I didn't wait for the next day to start- I decided to start that minute just to input all the food I ate for the next…

Bump-wow!
