This challenge has definitely proven to me that weekends are my downfall and I tend to slack off getting 2 pts a day if lucky. After seeing that I plan to turn that around so if that's the only thing I gain from this challenge then it was a definitely success for me! :happy:

The 5 (6) P's... Propper Planning Prevents (Piss) Poor Performance! Definitely goes with everything in life.

OMG I highly recommend Vitatops the Deep Chocolate kind www.vitalicious.com They are only 100 calories with 9 grams of fiber and as nutritious or more than an apple. It is like a hot muffin top with melted chocolate chips in it awesome when heated up for 30 seconds! nom nom nom

Its hard to say each person is built differently. I currently weigh 165 and wear a size 10, and I'm 5'3. I was perfectly content at 145 wearing a size 8, I have a large bone structure and anything smaller than that would make me look like I'm sick.

Are we checking in daily or on Sundays? I'm a little confused :huh:

Well put, unfortunately I am one of those I keep remembering how I was only 2 lbs from goal a few years ago. I also ran 3x a week and loved working out. Many surgeries later and 20 lbs heavier I have to drag myself to the gym. I was told that I have to stop looking at the past at where I was and look to the future and…

Totally forgot to check in on Sunday, had an awful week been sick since Wed. But feeling much better and actually brought my gym bag today to at least go for a little walk. Here are my pts. TOTAL - 18 11/26 - 4 pts 11/27 - 3 pts 11/28 - 2 pts 11/29 - 2 pts 11/30 - 2 pts 12/1 - 2 pts 12/2 - 3 pts My goal for today is to get…

I did get my 4 pts in yesterday too! But today might not be as good. My head feels like it's going to explode with my sinuses and I am seriously dragging. :frown:

OK, so I just created a little spreadsheet to keep track of my targets and my daily points earned. Hoping that if I stare at it enough (daily) I will make sure I get my points in! I'm excited, I already earned the max 4 pts for today. Woo Hoo! :happy:

OMG, that happened to me too! I took a formal photo of my husband and I on a cruise and once I saw it printed I realized how much I gained back! In my eyes, I looked like Jabba the Hut!

Yes, I do. I've lost 30 lbs so far but was down 50lbs, then re-gained :grumble: , which makes it even harder when I see myself in the mirror. There was a time I was seeing that thinner me and felt happy with myself and what I accomplished. Now I see the heavier me and all I see are the disappointments with what I had let…

Wow, that's what I had to hear. In fact heard that same thing this morning from a friend. It's hard learning to put yourself first when you never could before.

I'm right there with ya! I thought about doing WW again but I just can't seem to grasp the new points plus and it really doesn't motivate me. Hoping between this and my Fitbit I will be good to go!

I just upgraded from the 4 and I love it. It is a lot thinner and lighter. Even with my Otter box it is lighter than my friend's android. I like that it's longer and a lot faster. I've had no issues with it. It's been fun getting used to Siri. So let's see: Camera's much better,it's faster, lighter, slim and longer. I also…

I've never tried one either, don't care too. I'm more of a chocoholic. LOL

Feel free to add me :happy:

WOW... I have friends who weigh 120 lbs and who are tall and guess what...they have cellulite. The most effective way to treat cellulite is the right diet. The main hormone behind cellulite formation is insulin. It is the hormone which actually stores fat into your body and even stops your body from burning it. The good…

Ummmm yeah...that would be me. LMAO Either this or facebook. I am soooo bored...work comes and goes and right now...it's all MFP.

Do you all feel you get a good overall strength training from the EASA 2? I get bored so easily and thought with the weekly challenge program that it has it would at least switch some things up for me.

I have also tried many, many "diets" over the years. So let's see.... WWs - Did awesome on their "core" program but gained back about 15 lbs and can't seem to lose it on the new one....too complicated for me when it comes to figuring out all the new points. Atkins - Tried it many years ago...lost only 10 lbs then went on…

So nice to know I'm not alone with this!

Wow...this is hysterical. It's so comforting to know I'm not the only one obsessed with MFP!

How about you have your phone with you on the elliptical and when you get off the first thing you do is go onto MFP and log in your workout! LOL That is definitely me!

My hairdresser actually asked me if I was running? She seems to think it keeps up my metabolism and that helps the hair growth. I also started taking Biotin after that and have noticed a HUGE difference in not only my length but NEW hair growth! I'm so excited about it.

I had two different grandparents who loved to spoil me with food. One would take me every Friday after school for a large mint chocolate chip hot fudge sundae, of course loaded with hot fudge, whip cream and a cherry. The other would constantly make me cookies and never let me leave the table until I finished all the food…

Brownies, Brownies and more Brownies! Oh and French Fries....I can't stop either one!

Absolutely amazing! I am also 39 and at 160 pounds. Want to reach my goal for my 40th birthday. What plan were you following for your strength routine? If any???

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: That was hysterical!!!

OMG these are so funny... When I eat an english muffin with PB it has to have a slice of salami on it. YUM Oh and my grilled cheese sandwiches have to have bacon and sauteed onion on them. mmmmmm....now I'm craving a grilled cheese & tomato soup.

I have been toying with the same thought. I was a former WW member on the old "CORE" program and lost most of my weight on that. Then the new Points + system came and I gained. UGH, it was so confusing. Ok, now light bread is considered a simply filling food. It was getting too complicated. But now they're rolling out the…
