I just turned 50 in July lost 16 pounds than started on mfp in june, I have lost 16 more pds since starting here in June, Went from a size 12 in pants to a 4/6 and 1x in tops now in m/l. Still have another 26 pds to go, love the support and all the wonderful information, I exercise 5 days a week and am really getting into…

Both of them are beautiful ! I think the black one !

Thanks that's what I was thinking but not sure, thanks again

Way to go...Keep it up you can do this...small steps at a time !!

Dinner..chicken breast (grilled) mashed sweet potatos and a cucumber with mushroom cold salad with light ranch dressing..it was yummy and filling

thanks figured it out

how do i get the pictures up ?

I usually have calories left expecially when I've had a good workout day, I don't eat all my calories back, when I go to bed hungry I wake up with a flatter stomach and I love that sight, too bad it only lasts for a short amount of time in the morning, Oh well one of these days I'm hoping it will stay flat lol

Same thing happens to me, I just tough thru it and it goes away

I log mine in as circuit training

Just turn 50 also add me if you want

Thanks everyone, I do drink a lot of water just forget to log it in, and I need that 1 or 2 cans of diet caffine free diet coke (lol) per day hopefully I can get to the point to let go of it... I'm on a water pill everyday for my heart so I'm confused about the sodium..I wil not give up it is just a slow learning process

5'2 150 pds and 1200 or a little less per day

I'm a smoker but thought I would work on losing the weight first and than try to quit, it would be way to hard to eat good and not smoke at the same time... One thing at a time for me....

Turning 50 July 8th Las Vegas here I come.....:flowerforyou:

My doctor suggested caffeine free diet coke......

Turkey burgers are yummy on the grill also fish with lots of fresh squeezed lemon, also try a tomato basil wrap with your chicken

Hi I'm in Dixon, looking for someone to play tennis or walk with

Thanks all, I had lost 16 pds before starting with MFP, and yes the first pds came off alot quicker, it is just really neat to see calories in and out with this program sure makes me get up and moving. got laid off from my job 1 yr ago and haven't been able to find work. This is keeping me from really getting depressed.

I don't think you will feel deprived, you will start to find other healthy food that you will love. I used to love hamburgers ,now one of my new favorite food is turkey burgers on the grill, I have not cheated and I have found a lot of foods that I really love now, much different foods than I use to eat

Thanks, that's a great idea :smooched:

Skinny Cow ice cream is the best low in calories, give it a try !!

yes it will be for a week over 4th of July. Celebrating my 50th birthday, I'm just hoping I won't go over my calories and gain the weight I just lost. I guess I'll just have to feel really confident that I know what to eat so I'll won't go over my calorie count. I will write everything down and log in when I returned and…
