amen that is an awesome victory!

i have been in calorie range for the past two days ..i had plenty of water today..and i excersised..i feel the slump may be over.

I gotcha.. i need the push too! :flowerforyou:

yes.. if you dont eat your burnt calories eventually you body will feel like its starving .. and you will stop losing.. i do consume most of my burnt off calories.. more then half.. enjoy it.. not often you are told to eat.. thats the joys of working out!

check out amazon .com.. last year i bought one for 39.99 free shipping.. and it works fine.. i love it!

WOW.. didnt expect all the quick responses.. yes.. I have thought about that... its really not all the older children.. its the younger 2 the now 5 and almost 2 year old.. the 5 year old.. is getting better.. its hard to tell the 2 year old.. "its mine" because he is already doing that with his toys..trying to teach him to…

I do cant break the bank.. so getting started can be fustrating because you dont want to throw away the food you have.. even with it possibly being not good for you.. So this new year.. I started with watching calories with the food I have .. then as I added the weekly things.. like whole wheat bread instead of white.. egg…

Hey!!!.. its ok.. yesturday was my first day.... i went over my calories.. but I am looking at it like this.. It could have been worse.. If i wasnt aware and keeping track... I know I still age less then I would have on a day I just didnt care.. I dont feel as heavy today.. not so bogged down with heavy food.... plus..…

welcom.. how about being a friend!

Thanks I will give it a shot!

Hey!... Please count me in... I need somthing like this!

Thank you all.. i just hope this is the time for me... i HOPE!

then i get to the point i feel like.. a blabbing idiot.. when i write here... how im an emotional eater.. and something is eating at me .. and im weak... i feel guilty about being that way... does this make sense.. i dont want to be the cry baby of myfitnesspal..

My husband and i are doing it!.. we had an excellent great first week... we lost 17 pounds between the both of us.. i know its mostly water weight.. but that has made a big difference.. we feel more energetic because we have cut back on our intake.. except water..lol.... and were not so bogged down with food... soo.. heres…

Thank you very much for your encouraging words of wisdom

thank you for the encouragement... i will keep you in mind..

im going to give it another shot:embarassed: i havent been on here in a long time.. and i have reallyyy truly just given up on losing weight.... life is always one big stress... and it will be like it for many years... and i need to learn to cope not eat... somedays it seems if i have to add one more thing...like a diary…

Thanks to all of you!!!.. wish me luck..and best to all of you!

ok. here I go again... im gonna pick up.. the stress doesnt seem as bad now.. i really felll hard... just didnt care.. wanted to sleep all the time.. and good lord...... smoke.. soo.. im feeling good.. there is still one more stressful situation i have to over come yet.. with limited time.. but im able to focus on that…

Through everything.. i havent gained.. ive maintained which is a blessing.. sooo.. hofully ill lose next week.. somedays i wish you all were here.. to talk me down.. like here in my house.. when i want to go to the fridge

Grant it!.. yesturday again was filled with bad news for our family .. but what else is new when were averaging 1 to 2 deaths a week since before christmas.. I guess thats part of being in a large family and close. Yesturday we were met at our door with a ringing phone. With information that My Husbands One Uncle was on…

im not a breakfast eater.. just started forcing myself to eat oatmeal... so this is a great insight for someone like me... forcing myself to eat. even if im not hungry.. to boost me..and stop the cravings which i have daily!... thanks for the post
