I weigh in every morning after I use the restroom. It helps me stay focused & on track. It does fluctuate throughout the day. But the morning # is what I use. I just don't want it to get out of control then I have to lose those same 5lbs. over & over.

That is WONDERFUL!!! Thanks for sharing.

Thank yo for sharing!!! Great inspiration.

I'm down!!! But, I'm hoping I can LOSE some weight. After doing Tae Bo & watching my food intake & I'm ontop of the water. & not losing not ONE pound is driving me CRAZY!!! I'm trying NOT to get discouraged here...LOL

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Good for you! You look GREAT!

A few suggetions: scrambled eggs & spinach High protein shake Oatmeal w/ diced apples

CONGRATULATIONS!!! You look GREAT!!!

definately a good read...Thanks for sharing your story. Your not alone by any means. Just keep up the GOOD work! you can do it.

I LOVE Tae Bo...I just started it again this week. 10 years ago I LOST 75 lbs. doing Tae Bo every morning & I was soooo TONED as well as losing the weight. It was unbelievable!

I asked the same question this morning & was told by many you can choose to eat some back but NEVER go UNDER 1200 calories a day. Your body will start to burn MUSCLE instead of FAT.

I LOVE it!!! Good for you. Yes the little things that make us happy...LOL!!! Keep up the GOOD work.

Welcome! welcome! welcome! I wanted to join weight watchers but couldn't really fit it into my budget & a friend of mine told me about this site who also used to be on weight watchers & found this site ALOT more helpful. I can tell you it has been soooo HELPFUL for me. I LOVE the motivation, encouragement & tips you get…

you DESERVE the credit for your HARD work YOU are putting into your weightloss journey. I think slimfast is a great idea for a on the go breakfast when you don't have time to prepare food. Don't worry what others think or say. Do it for YOU!!! Keep up the GOOD work.

I'm PROUD of you! Thank you for sharing, you have definately inspired me. I want to feel just like you. I KNOW I can do it too & I will. I have lost 11 lbs. so far. I have PLENTY of it to go but I'm on my way. CONGRATULATIONS on your accomplishment. :happy:

I get on every morning before I get in shower. It HELPS me stay focused & know what I got to do for the day.

I'm not for sure but I think because your not eating all your calories your body is going into starvation mode. Try eating more as crazy as that sounds. Your body needs fuel.

I'm definately IN!! I NEED the motivation & encouragement as much as I'd like to give it. My current weight is 206. have to do my inches soon. My goal is to lose 5lbs. a month so by New Year's that should be 25lbs. down. My ultimate goal is to get to 130 or 135. LET'S GET STARTED!!!:happy:

I guess I'm just waiting for them to notice. I think they will start watching me like a hawk & when I eat ONE thing that they think isn't so great I will hear things about me trying to lose weight. This is a journey I decided to take on my own well with MFP family only...LOL!!! I have lost 12 lbs. so far & it's NOT…

LOL!! yes... (8) 1 cup a aday to equal 64 oz. so if you have more much better. That is just the suggested amount we should atleast be having daily.

I BELIEVE you can do it!!! Yes, it's gonna be HARDER this time around & NO it's NOT going to be easy. I am way past the weight I was when I gave birth. 2 mos. ago I was at my HIGHEST weight ever. I'm 4' 11" & weighed 219 lbs. When I went to the Dr. after being SHOCKED & DEPRESSED I figured the ONLY person to take control…

YES!!!! I AGREE! Trador Joes is the BOMB!!! : )

I think that is GREAT! I believe as long as you pay attention to portions & serving sizes. You said your not eating fast food or processed food so that is GREAT!!! I have been paying close attention to those things. I don't stay hungry & I just try to make sure I add FRUIT 3 times a day & VEGGIES with EVERY meal & lots of…

WELCOME!!!! what I have found of MFP is LOTS of motivation, encouragement & it helps me stay on the right track. I have lost 11 lbs. a little at a time but it's coming off. LOL!! Just keep logging on & I hope you will find as much help as I have on here. The ladies are wonderful. I have a MFP who will get in my butt right…

I completely UNDERSTAND!!! The most IMPORTANT part is to keep at it. You are NOT the only one who feels this way. I too have gotten to the point where I can't believe I allowed myself to get this far. I have problems with my joints & knees as well so exercising can be a challenge for me also. I am losing SLOWLY & it does…

Welcome to MFP. I LOVE it here. As long as I log in & keep track daily. I feel that is progress. I started my weighloss journey 2 mos. ago. I am not always on GOOD days. LOL! but thanks to the motivation, encouragement & support I recieve on here I keep going. I think you will love it here as well & recieve all the support…

mmmmm Thanks for sharing. I am going to try these cookies.

Apples tend to take care of my sweet tooth & keep you full for a while. Another thing I do when I want (ice cream) I get a cup of frozen cherries or blueberries & mix w/ 2 tblsp. of vanilla low fat yogurt. The fozen fruit freezes the yogurt after a min. or so & it has the icecream feel to it. If I don't have that avail I…
