I am doing fairly well, some days better than others. I only weigh when i go to the Dr. so I am not sure if i have had any weight loss, somedays i feel like i have and other days i feel like i am just maintaining. Still really really struggling with the exercise thing. I do it in my mind, well thats not working. I was…

wow what an inspiration, i have been doing this for years and haven't been successful, still have 88lbs to go... you look stunning!!!! I can do it, thanks for posting.

Keeping you and your family in my prayers.

ahhhh!! I went on a bit of a binge last night, I managed to eat healthier foods but still it was a binge type thing. I am an emotional eater and last night was not a good night and when i got home i ate, all the while telling myself it was destructive but doing it anyway. I ate 4 oz of breakfast steak, a pack of skinny cow…

I have a friend who did this, i think its nuts cause common sense says first not healthy, at all and second of course you will lose weight (for now) with such a calorie restriction with or without that expensive HCG! Realistically who is going to only eat 500-700 calories a day for the rest of their life? not me LOL!! so i…

1. I grew up in Illinois, moved away from the only place i have ever lived last year, moved to Nevada 2. i will be 50 years old this month 3.i first joined MFP in 2009, had success, fell off, gained the weight back, i am back on MFP 4. I recently set my weightloss ticker back to 0 for a fresh start, my weight this time is…

wow!!! what an inspiration thanks for sharing!!!

You sure are not alone here. It is really hard to do. I have been buying alot of lettuce and lo cal salad dressing and so happy fresh fruit season is here. I just get a back of chicken tenders, whatever fruit is on sale and a small veggie tray, a bag of talapia and find recipes that use these items. I also admit to buying…

oh yesssss!!!!! I turn 50 this month! I really want to lose a little more than 50 0r 60, maybe closer to 70-80. I am in though. Need all the support i can get and am here to support others as well!!!!! Have a great day

the name of this thread caught my eye cause i keep telling myself exactly that!!!!! I am going to join this for the month of April. A little history on me. I have been on and off MFP since 2009 and realize if I had stayed vigilant i would have long ago been at my goal and able to help others. However i made significant…

That is fantastic! congratulations

i don't cause i will only be hurting myself.

LOL OMG!!!! that was great, thanks for the laugh!! i love it

rice cakes!

i am only going to weigh when i go to the Dr. otherwise i get so depressed with little or no progress i just want to give up. I made a big decision today, i set my ticker back to 0, as i have not been doing anything in the way of continuing on this journey i started way back in 2009. I am considering this day 1 of a new…

Good day to everyone! Today is March 28, 2012 and I made a big decision. I have set my ticker back to 0. My binging at night has been off the chain. Last night i woke up at 4 am and ate burritios and not just one, it was a nightmare and the whole time i knew it was going to make me feel horrible this morning and it did. So…

i am logging on now cause it is late evening and here i am, starting to obsess on "one more piece of cheese sound good" One piece won't hurt, problem is it won't be one piece, if i start i will eat till it is gone or i am so full and sick and depressed i will go to sleep. So i am writing this, praying it will let me see in…

great idea, i am going to do this with you all, and i am only going to weigh first day and then at the "report" day. My Dr. recommended i stop weighing myself so much cause i get really discouraged when i only see a lb or two gone after what i feel is working really hard at this. I don't want to have to work at it all the…

Hello everyone! My name is Mary Beth and I am an addict. I have struggled with my weight and weightloss issues for a very long time. I do ok for a period of time and then i fall off the wagon. I have a real problem with binge eating in the evenings. I will sit and watch tv and just eat. To the point where i am sick from it…

Its not a bad thing at all. I adjusted rather well after my divorce. sometimes now i think hmm, could i stand to live with someone again. I kind of like doing what i want when i want, without worrying about having to get home for this or that. so i say its a good thing at least for now.

My name is Mary Beth, I live in Henderson, Nevada. I am going to be 50 next month. I am divorced, mother of one grown son and grandmother to a beautiful 2 year old "Princess" named Mia. I have fought this weight issue for years. In April of 2010, I found MFP. I lost 48 lbs using this site. Then I got off track and began to…

Kens steakhouse northern Italian lite dressing is really good. Hidden valley ranch lite is good also. Those are the only two i have found that i like. Don't try the fat free bleu cheese, it costs me over 5 bucks for a bottle and it was so bad i threw it away!

You did great!! I have had many 1st day screw ups not to mention the 1 week screw ups etc.., i just keep coming back to MFP and then i get back on track. I just now logged back on about 3 days ago.I am constantly "screwing up" but for today i am not giving up! You can do this, we all can with the help and support of others…

fantastic!!!!!

cleaning the house!!!! arrrgghhhhh :devil:

I definitely do, I have a full gym including pool, tennis courts etc... at my disposal 24 hours a day and can't seem to drag myself to make use of them. I am considering paying to go back to curves because when i was going there, i was motivated make some friends and had a great time exercising. Just wish there was one a…

Does 49 make into this category ? :drinker: :smile:

I have never tried the CLA personally, but I have tried just about everything else on the market. I came to the conclusion that the only thing that works is diet and exercise, for me anyway..... eat less, move more.

I can absolutely relate to all here!! My problem is binging at night, just before bed and its horrible. The next day i feel like i have a hangover. For me i am looking at the real possibility that i am filling a void just as i had done in the past with drugs. I made a decision (which I know a decision without action is no…
