  • Hey y'all, I have been on MFP for a while and have had successes and defeats....Life as we all know it. I am 45 years old, a mother of two teenage girls (a big inspiration for me to set an example of what a HEALTHY lifestyle should be like) and happily married for 18 years. My husband has the metabolism of a gerbil and…

  • My hometown in Brookville, PA! :smile: I know that Punxsy groundhog well! I lived in Fredericksburg, VA for a few years. From there, we moved to Eugene, OR for a few years. Then back to the east coast to Chapel Hill, NC for about seven years. From there, we headed back to the D.C. area for 7 years. And now we are in…

  • P. Terry's has one of the best Veggie Burgers that I have had (and I have tried them in numerous locations). It doesn't taste like they just took a frozen patty out of a box... it really tastes like a real burger. And the restaurant is cute, too. Very casual and fun. :smile:
    in Austin area: Where do you find healthy options for eating ou Comment by tlwinky February 2012
  • Funny thing. Just moved to Austin six months ago. Love my neighborhood (great walking trails) and as I was out walking yesterday, I thought "I should see if anyone on MFP is from my neighborhood". I haven't met a lot of people yet since I FINALLY just finished unpacking last week and I realize that I miss having friends to…

  • I used to watch the show because, for some reason, Tuesday was always a really hard day for me to get through with my workout / eating plan. Tuesday's show would always show me other people who were worse off than me that were truly giving it 100% and trying to get healthy and that REALLY motivated me to suck it up and get…

  • I have only been at this for a month and have only lost four pounds, but I have noticed a HUGE difference in the way my clothes are fitting. I am down 2+ pant sizes and it has only been four weeks! I can hardly wait to see what the next month brings! I am also sleeping so much better and exercise is not such a chore…
    in When did you start noticing a differece? Comment by tlwinky January 2012
  • I have found this same thing to be true. I lost 2 pounds the first week, only 1 the second week, 1 the third week and NOTHING this past week! BUT I put on a shirt yesterday (one that I have not been able to wear for 2 years because it made me feel like a sausage and it was SOOO uncomfortable!) just hoping I could button it…

  • You can add me. It is easier to do this with a group than alone, so the more friends the better! Good luck!

  • when you can no longer use the excuse that your clothes drier is shrinking your denim, because your sweat pants are super tight on you too! Perhaps my clothes drier is malfunctioning and shrinking ALL my clothes??? Could that be it???
