Body fat probably would be better, I'm not sure. I'll check out the websites you guys gave me. Thanks. I just know that I don't think I look obese so I was hoping to find something that would be a better indicator.

I had the same problem not too long ago. I think mine lasted for about 3 weeks and then I lost like 4lbs in a week. I'm hoping to lose some more by next week. I've slowed down a bit again. However I have been taking it easy just for a break.

Me too. iIve been doing really good this week, consistently losing every day. It's so nice to finally see that ticker moving. My Halloween goal is in sight. Ticker updated too.

I'm on a roll this week. I've lost 3lbs this week. It's felt so good since I had been up for while and the scale wasn't budging. Now to keep it off over the weekend.

The scale is moving. I'm .2 lbs from being exactly 13 lbs total lost so my ticker says 13 which makes me so excited. But for the group I'm really close to having lost 5 lbs so far. I really hope that the weekend doesn't ruin it. I always do well before the weekend and then not so well Monday morning even when I'm trying to…

I finally went down a pound this morning but it's still a pound away from my lowest. I'm still catching up from the 2 lbs I put on recently. Not sure where it came from cuz that was over a week ago. But finally seeing it move makes me happy. I hope to lose 1-2 more pounds this week but as long as I get back where I was…

I'm hitting a slump lately both emotionally and physically. I've been having some health issues that I think are slowing me down. Nothing serious but affecting my weight loss. It's also making me get a little lazy and I've had to push myself through workouts. I'm still doing my best to stay with it though. I just really…

Well I know I'm losing weight but I'm also working out so it's not showing on the scale. But I'm looking thinner and my measurements are going down. Hubby noticed too. Apparently it's very noticeable to him cuz he points it out randomly when he looks at me for various things like my waist or neck or just overall. I'll take…

I have taken a few measurements. I've lost an inch in my thighs but my waist and hip measurements have gone up. Not sure if I measured wrong the first time or what. Although I do look smaller. I'm still stuck at the same weight. I hope it starts going down by next week.

The bikini bottoms look more bathing suit like but the shorts look more comfortable. I say go with which ever you feel best in.

Really? I'm surprised that doing a brand new workout wouldn't take more time getting use to even if I am in better shape than I thought. I am sweating like crazy when I'm finished so I know I'm getting a good workout. I just hope I see results from it.

No weight loss for me even though I've been working hard the last couple of days. I think I'm experiencing muscle swelling from the intense workout I'm doing so hopefully when that goes down the weight loss will show. However, my hubby mentioned quite a bit this morning that he's noticed a difference and I'm looking really…

NSV - I completed KenpoX at 100% intensity and feel great afterwards. My stamina must be getting better. Looking forward to the scale tomorrow. I hope my work shows.

This kind of stinks. Unintentionally I am way under my calories today just because what I put together for meals was on the light side. I didn't even plan it that way, it just happened. I also exercised today so I'm too far under. I need to plan better.

I feel the same way when I get on the scale. I'm not having to lean over to see the number over my belly. I still have a ways to go due to having 3 kids, including 2 c-sections. And I completely get the pulling the belly up to see thing, ha ha.

I'm a little up over the weekend so I have some work to do this week. I did work out on Sunday so hopefully that will get me started right this week. I'm going to add some strength training this week to see if I can boost my weight loss. It's suppose to burn more calories than just cardio.

Whoo Hoo! Down another pound today. I'm racing toward that goal. I'm so excited and proud of myself for doing so well and sticking with it. We have some great losses on here. Can't wait for Halloween!

Thanks! We can do it! Good Luck on your weigh in tomorrow.

I finally broke the 180 mark! I'm so excited. I'm now 179.6 and even though it's only .4 lbs lost I'm thrilled. It's been over a year since I was here.

I love the fresco steak soft tacos. 2 are only 300 cal. That makes hubby happy that we can still go there. Although he likes many fresco items too.

Well I'm about to break 180. It's impressive that using MFP I've been able to actually lose weight during "that time". I've lost 11lbs total since I started this plan. I can't wait to see the 170s. My workout has been derailed though cuz I'm having sciatica issues. Hopefully they'll subside soon.

Well I did my workout. I feel better now and have my motivation back. I was a bit down earlier over gaining a pound and trying to figure out how to eat all my calories.

When you make your ticker you can save the link and make a password. Then you can go back and update your ticker and copy it to your signature again.

Well I do know that your body needs fuel. When you eat healthy you'll tend to eat more of it cuz it will have less calories and good stuff than the bad food. Ex: 1cup of broccoli versus 1cup of french fries. Plus once you've gotten your metabolism up you need to feed it to keep it up. It's a burning fat machine and your…

Thanks for the replies. I don't usually have a hard time eating if I'm not really hungry but being on a diet makes me more conscious of extra eating. My problem is that I eat a decent breakfast and fairly light lunch so that I'm sure I can eat the dinner I make for the family. I've been making some well balanced meals and…

I went up a pound today. I'm not freaked out but I am concerned it's because I'm not eating enough. Through measuring my food I tend to end up not eating my goal even though I am eating decent sized meals. If I eat too late at night sometimes I'll gain instead of maintaining or losing so I can't just finish off my leftover…

I don't put in my gains so it doesn't affect my ticker. I just do my best to bring it back down and when I lose more I can tell how long it took me by looking at my progress chart. I know some people like to see that they've gained in order to lose but it makes me feel worse and I lose my motivation so I just stay focused…

I finished my workout! I just love saying that cuz it's been a year since I worked out this much. That and MFP are really working and I'm feeling motivated. I'm visiting family this weekend and want them to notice the 10 or so lbs. I've lost.

Honestly if I've been working out consistently and burned a ton of calories, I do dive into my exercise calories sometimes. I never use them up but on average I can burn 400 calories with Zumba so occasionally I use 50-100 calories of it for filling out a meal or having a snack/desert/coke in the evening. I try to pick…

Awesome job everyone!
