You brought tears to my eyes this morning. Thanks for lifting us up every day. I'm coming to the point that I look for your post every morning. Every person needs their own cheerleader! :O) Thanks!

I take a serving of cocoa almonds - 150 cal. 1 c. carrots & 1 T. peanut butter - 145 cal (I think) cottage cheese and fruit - 130-150 cal. banana & yogurt - 200 cal. hard boiled egg & serving of fat free lunch meat - 130-150 cal.

I agree with Katie. I weight myself once a week, because I get so depressed if it doesn't show me what I want to see. And we all know how much our weight fluxuates during the week. Ugh!!

I eat 5-6 times a day..every few hours. Small meals only...300-400 calories for meals and up to 200 for snacks. I'm never THAT hungry. I feel like I have more control because I'm not to the point of starving..ever. Love #9, by the way...been there! :O)

Welcome!! I know how you feel. I've lost and gained and lost and gained and ended up at my heaviest about 3 years ago. I've been playing around off and on since then, but am determined now. I've done the couch to 5K...you can do it!! Just repeat the weeks as often as you need to until you can do it. I asked my friend when…

I just looked back a couple days as well. Are you drinking water? You should have at least 8 - 8oz glasses per day if not more. I also noticed you don't eat much fruit? You might add a little more to your diet. You need the balance of fruits, veggies, protein and whole grains. How often do you work out? You'll need more…

You sent me a message..and I would love to join! I think I sent you a friend request on facebook...at least I hope it was you..LOL

Awwwwww thanks!!! Mwah!!

You are such a good dad!!! Hugs and smooches this morning to you!!!! Thanks for starting my day off right!!

I'm in! My starting weight is 248.2. I see that everyone is doing 10 lbs..but I just don't think that's feasible for me in 4 weeks. I'm going to say 6 lbs.

I did fib. way back when...it was only about 20 lbs off...I've never changed it..and they've never asked. I would love to get back down there though. That is the goal!!

You have me at hubba, hubba..everytime! LOL Hugs!!!

I used to be just like you. Now I don't mind it at all. I don't love it, but I don't mind it. When I go to the gym and work on the elliptical and the stationary bike, I take my kindle or a book and I read and listen to my ipod. It makes time fly. I've just accepted that it's something that I have to do. Good Luck!

I was doing WW as well. I've done it so many times and I'm not sure if it was just getting old or what, but I was going nowhere. So I saw that a friend had joined MFP and I thought I'd give it a try. LOVE IT!!! I've also done couch to 5K. I finished it and ran my first 5K and decided it wasn't for me. I'd rather go to the…

That's awesome!

Have a fabulous day Ed!! Hugs!

Hi there!! Welcome!! I'm right there with ya..I have about 80 lbs that I would like to lose. You're right on when you say it's very important to watch what you eat. Tracking is everything!!! I'm glad to hear that you want to try and lose without surgery. A few years ago my friend and I sat in on a informational meeting of…

When I don't feel like cooking...I head out to the places to get my favorite salads. Arbys, McDonalds & Wendy's. The family can eat what they want and I get the things that actually taste good to me.

I AM worthy! Thanks Ed...for the reminder!! Hugs!

I'd love to be your friend!!! Welcome back and feel free to add me. :O)

I'm sorry sweetie. I've been asked that before too. I was totally humuliated!! I cried too. But if it makes you feel better....I know that she was totally humuliated too! So I'm sure that the office manager was too. Don't worry about her. Keep your head up...this too shall pass. Hugs!

I drink about 8-12. I have to push myself to do it though. Sometimes I just have to stand there and chug. But I know that my weight loss will suffer if I don't. That's what keeps me motivated to do so. I've been on a plateau for weeks....wondering what the problem was...Water!!! Ya gotta have it!! :O)

Ed...you are just the bomb!!!! I love starting my day out to your posts!! I think after awhile, I just might start to believe it. Hugs!!

Cracking down on eating processed carbs...no more for me!! Also only counting "real" water as water and not coffee or tea.
