Don't give up!! I struggled with the same thing for five weeks and am finally starting to catch up now. I lost 3 pounds last week alone and am heading for another 2 pound loss tomorrow (I hope!!). Just keep doing what you are doing....the scale will start moving downwards.

I really like edamame. I chose to snack on those instead of chips, fries, etc. Yum. :) Oh...and smoothies are good too.

I'm so going to try this!! Thanks!

It is definitely hard to get a cardio workout in when you have asthma problems. Hopefully you have it pretty much under control before starting ANY kind of workout program. You said you were interested in starting to run. I LOVE the Couch to 5K program!! It's a program that slowly builds up your running stamina and easy to…

Good luck!!! This place/community is great!

Thanks for posting this! I'm off to do some planks. ;)

Welcome to both of you! I've been on this site for two weeks and don't know what I would do without it. It becomes addicting and the people you will meet are awesome. Utilize all MFP has to offer and you will do great. :)

Just plan ahead, bring your snack and meals and make exercise appointments. You CAN do it!

Ohhh....please encourage her to get another doctor/opinion!!!

You know...that diet sounds a little extreme. I was pre-diabetic (and now diabetic because I didn't take charge) but my doctor told me to eat a healthy, balanced diet and to exercise on a regular basis. He suggested vitamin supplements specifically for diabetics (Alphabetic) and to do a sort of boot camp workout. Meaning,…

I joined this site about two weeks ago (I'm also in the obese category). The site tools and PEOPLE on here are THE best!! So much support and advice. :) Welcome and take the journey one step at a time. You are the only one in control and you can achieve anything you set out to do. GOOD LUCK!!

I missed this yesterday (darn term paper!)!!! But now I'm here and accounted for. ;) I will be meeting my exercise appointments that I set for myself. I have been slacking on the C25K (only two days of not showing up) but will step it up because I'm seeing CHANGES and want to keep that going. So glad to be a part of this!!…

I'm with you 100%. Here we go.... :)

Cheesecake is my weakness!! I'll have to try making these...looks easy enough and yummy. Thanks for sharing.

I'm fairly new on here too (today is my one week anniversary) and I LOVE this site. So many great people and excellent tools. Stick with it and you WILL lose the weight.

Splenda and Agave Nectar :wink:

I have the same issues....but I'm not stuffed at the end of the day. :) Since I have started to eat more healthy food (fiber, whole grains, balanced meals) I'm just more satisfied and don't feel like I need to eat anything else. This is extremely unusual for me! I used to eat well beyond my alloted calories before the food…

I just found this site as well and I love it!!! The app makes it really easy to use everywhere you go too. So glad I stumbled across it. :)

I just joined MFP as well and love it so far. Lot's of great tools on here! I love the community aspect too and am ready to get it going once and for all. See you around and GOOD LUCK with all of your goals. :)

Hi Christy, I just joined the site as well because I have to get with the program. I was just diagnosed with Type II diabetes and really need to get a move on for my health. I have to be pretty careful too with my weight loss program because my blood sugar could drop too low if I exercise without having the right foods in…
