I too have been at MFP since June 2011...Yes I have lost some weight, which is fantastic but I struggle today almost as much as when I first started using MFP. One day will be fantastic, then the next a bust !... I have learned quite a lot about myself and my eating habits using this site... I refuse to quit !...I want…

When I first started MFP I was staying around 1200 calories a day, and lost a lot of weight , just as Keri mentioned....It worked great for a while..Then I stalled too. I upped my calories , as someone suggested I do...and started losing again...Imagine that eat more and still lose weight !!!..It was an odd concept to…

My moment came, one day ,when a friend I work with was talking about MFP, and using the app. I noticed she ate pretty much anything she wanted while on her lunch or breaks at work. I'm talking donuts, candy bars etc. Now, don't get me wrong...she didn't eat a box of donuts or anything and not all the time, yet she still…

Great blog....It seems that every thin or trying to be thin person thinks they know what is best for you and your life...You are doing great...Keep it up ! :)))....And as for hiking in the mountains by myself...forget it..I am such a chicken. :)

I'm 5'9" tall and at 195 lbs. I was wearing a 16-18. Most of the 18's were a little baggy. Tops were Xl or 18. I can't stand tight fitting clothing. My hubby tells me I wear my clothes too baggy. I am now at 176.5, and I am wearing a size 14 mostly. They are getting looser. I have a couple pairs of 12's. Yay !!! Tops are…

Hi Sabrina ! ...I'm here...I think we've all got lost somehow...Hope everything is going great with you ! :):smile:

Hi Deana! I'm going to drink all my water today...It seems like such a small step...but I still struggle. I am going to see this journey through to the end...baby steps and all ! :wink: P.S. You are doing great ! :flowerforyou:

Hi everyone ! I am glad to say I am back on track :wink: I had a few days of ...well let's say , not so good days. :sad: I lowered my calories a little to see if that would kick start some more weight loss. I was getting so discouraged I had to do something to get the numbers going down again. I'm glad to say today I…

I just wanted to let you know that I am still with you...still sick though. Everyone is doing great !

Good Tuesday evening everyone ! I am fighting a cold these days...haven't been sick in a long while. Seems like one thing after another lately. I am managing to stay under calories...most every day. Exercise...well lets just say it hasn't been happening. Other than a little here and there...not enough to log, so I don't .…

Just logged in for the day...Started feeling sick yesterday...throat, ears etc....uggggg !!! Hope this is a brief bug !

Enjoy your day Deana :) My day was a bust ...still not back in the swing of things...a little down still. Hoping for a better start to the new week tomorrow. Everyone is doing so good ! Keep it up......we can do it !!! :)))

Week one of our 100 Day Challenge was pretty good for me. If things hold on until morning I can post a pound loss for the week. :smile: The down side to my week was the passing of my sister-n-law. She fought a hard battle with cancer . She passed this morning at 2:30am. My husband is so lost without her. I will be on an…

I just go to log in for the evening to keep my diary days going. My diary was o.k. today. Water was o.k. Still no 8 but I try. Worked ,then went to hospice to visit my sister-n-law. She is losing her battle with cancer. She has been going downhill rather quickly. She has been fighting kidney cancer for just over 2 years (…

Good evening everyone. Hope you all had a great day ! Work was crazy today ! :noway: What is it that brings people ,by the groves, to the grocery store when they say it is going to snow????????? 2 inches is what they said this morning. After 19 years you would think I would be used to it, but it still blows my mind. LOL,…

Hi everyone. Today I did pretty good with my diary. I started out the morning with a piece of pie for breakfast. Just one of those cravings...turned out it wasn't anything special:noway: ...lol, no seconds. I did, however, manage to finish out the day under calories. :smile: My water has been an issue with me from day…

Hi everybody. I managed my diary great today. My exercise, on the other hand, didn't happen. I was simply exhausted when I got home from work tonight. Then it was dinner, etc. and now time for bed again. I didn't do well on my water today either. I never realized just how dehydrated I was 99% of the time until I started…

Hello everyone ! My name is Beth, I will turn the big 50 this year. :noway: I would love to be at a much healthier weight for that great milestone in my life. This 100 day challenge would put me, exactly ,one month shy of my 1 year anniversary with MFP. I have had a lot of success so far and I am looking forward to…
