I'm in your same boat. I've lived on campus for the last 3 years, and as has been said before, planning ahead is really your only good option. I buy my groceries on the weekends and try to plan out my meals for the week. With breakfast and snacks planned out for sure, I can log the calories and have a good guess at what I…

I'm ready for this. 5.36 pounds - I got this! It'll be a nice motivator for summer :P

I really wish there was a "like" button for this... I'd like it a million times over! I wouldn't feel so bad thinking about how I have to shave my mustache before going out xD

Thank you so much for this! I'm all about a crunchwrap supreme, and to know I can make it healthier just made my day. Thank you!!!

I agree.. the numbers are awesome! Great job! Keep up the good work :)

I really wish they had a "like" button for comments! I would have liked this a million times over ^^

StumbleUpon. It's almost as bad as Pintrest. I can't go to bed until I get 5 more good stumbles.. oh but that wasn't a good one.. I've seen that one so it doesn't count... and suddenly it's 3 am lol.

I'm so excited for this season. It seems like there'll be a lot more teamwork and a lot less "competition". I would totally take Bob as a trainer.. though I would love some time with Dolvett :P Can you believe the girl that used to wrestle?! She broke her back AND finished the fight! Talk about determination!

Starting weight: 128.8. I'm so ready for this!

I'll join! It'll be wonderful to have others working towards the same goal to keep me motivated :D

Hard work and dedication. That's all there really is to it. You have to make up a plan for yourself and stick to it. Tracking is a great way to get started. It helps you see what you're REALLY eating (as opposed to what you THINK you're eating!). Start with tracking, get your food intake together, and then start adding in…

As has been said before, you've already taken a huge step. Making a commitment to change is a big deal! Just remember that every moment is a new opportunity to do well. Track everything you put in your mouth and all your exercise. It's really rewarding to see yourself doing well. If you make a poor decision, recognize it,…

Those little Mii's can be quite nervy! We're all here to help you with your goals. Good luck!

I'd love to join in! Is it too late for me to start?

I'd be happy to join! I'm a college student, so I won't be too crazy involved, but I will update daily and help my fellow challengers!

I think we all understand the urge to eat more during the cold weather. I, personally, like to think I'm preparing just in case I am forced to hibernate. It's hard to stick with something when the rest of world seems to want you to do otherwise. It's great that you realized your missteps and are working to correct them.…

I don't think it's about not being meant to be thin, I think it's more about being comfortable with your size. Sure, I may never be a size 0, mainly because my hip bones are too wide. That, and I like a little extra something to hold on to ;) I think the thought you need to be having is about getting healthy and where you…

Congratulations! You look fantastic!

I definitely agree about Heba and Vicky/Bradey. They almost made me want to stop watching. I enjoy BL when there is teamwork, motivation, and success. The fighting, backstabbing, and too much "playing the game" makes me want to find something else... I'm glad that season is over with and we've moved on! To me, you should…

Congrats on your weight loss! I understand the feeling when you are the only one watching yourself. I like the support this online community gives, but it would definitely be nice to have someone with me, in person, when I'm making decisions about eating right and exercising!

Hey! I know how you're feeling. I've had these last ~20 pounds to lose for about 4 years. I managed to lose about 10 of them last year by really watching what I ate. I made a weekly schedule (especially including snacks - they're my downfall) and made myself stick to it. By planning out my week in advance and writing down…

My guess would be because you're a vegan. The healthiest foods have the least calories, and you're on one healthy diet!

You are one amazing woman to be a morning person. Mornings are my nemesis, even though they seem to be the time I can get the most done (if I actually get up)!

Hello! Welcome to MFP. Good luck with your weight loss journey. I'm from Farragut, TN (currently at school up in Johnson City).

Oh my gosh! You look fantastic! It's one thing to see the "before" and "after"s on TV, but to see the results from a real person is incredible. It's so motivating to see that regular people can get such amazing results.

Thank you! Good luck to you, too.

What brings you all the way to Alaska? That's far from home (and a totally different world)!

I'm 5'2" and my goal weight is between 110-115. I felt my best around 105, but that was many years ago!

Hey guys! I'm new to MFP and would love to join your challenge. I'm in my 3rd year at East Tennessee State University and I'm a nursing major. I come from an Italian family (and my grandmother lives with us), so food is a pretty big deal to me. I'm not overweight, but I'm over the weight I feel comfortable at. I was about…
