I started at 270 about 2 years ago and now I am 174. My loss has been slow and steady. No fancy tricks for me, I watch what I eat and I have to exercise. Prior to mfp, I tried all the different pills and products, but the weight always came back. If you commit to the process, you will find success.

I would love to have more support and I would like to be helpful and supportive to others. Anyone who feels the same, please add me!

Happy New Years! I would love to be a part of your support team! Please feel free to add me!

Welcome! Glad you are here! Feel free to add me!

Welcome back! Feel free to add me! Tammy

I weigh daily. I feel like it keeps me honest.

Good for you! I would love to be friends. Please add me!

Add me!

Count me in!

Pineapple angel food cake 1 box of angel food cake 1 can of crushed pineapples 1tsp of vanilla Combine all the above mentioned ingredients(do not add water as the box calls for). Bake according to the boxes directions or until the top is a golden brown. It is delish!

Way to go on the weight loss. Sorry to hear about the TIA. It definitely can be a challenge when your energy level is low. Start small, a little exercise is better that no exercise. Take care!

I'm up for it! :)

OMG! I knew exactly what you were talking about when I read your topic. My waddle went away with weight loss. However, I had to lose like 50lbs before it was visible to me (or should I say...not visible to me). I wish I had an easier solution. :) Good luck to you!

Check out the movie...Super Size Me.

I would try calorie cycling. When I plateau, it has worked in tricking my body back into weight loss mode. Good luck! http://www.answerfitness.com/316/zig-zag-dieting-fitness-nerd/

I was teaching at my first teaching position and was in a classroom with a small group of 1st graders when I got the call from my (ex)husband. I had to wait until the kids went back to their general education teacher in order for me to find out more and to watch it on television. When I did see the footage, I remember the…

Thanks for sharing your story! Awesome job!

Welcome! Feel free to add me to your friend list if you would like me to cheer you on!

I've seen her last 3 shows. It seems to me she just counts calories and fat grams.

Have you tried calorie cycling?

Welcome! I also love zumba. Feel free to add me if you would like.

Feel free to add me!

Welcome! Glad you are here!

I take Zumba class and I love it. The weight is coming off! Hope you enjoy it!

Welcome to MFP! I'll send a friend request. :) Tammy

Welcome! I was in the same boat. I did zumba but the weight wasn't coming off due to my diet. Since I've been logging my calories, I've been doing well. Best of luck to you!

Some of my faves: laughing cow cheese with carrots or pretzels, fiber one brownies, skinny cow ice cream bars, and Thomas' English muffins with low or no sugar jelly.

thanks for sharing!

I like Thomas' English muffins. They have 100 calories with a third of your daily fiber. Instead of putting butter on them, I use low or no sugar jelly. Also, I incorporate flax seed in to anything I can (ground meats), yogurt, and sauces. I like the fiber one products. Just be careful when or if you use the cereals, some…

Welcome!!! Glad you are here!
