So glad you are here! I have found that I have NO success doing this by myself. The encouragement that I see everyone give each other is amazing. We can do this! Jane

YOU ARE AMAZING! Thank you for sharing this!

So glad to see some of you all are in the same boat or have already had some great success! Thanks!!

I wrote "or dads" because I know some dads gain some sympathy weight ;)

Yes! I want to get in shape before I am forty :) I'm 37 and trying to get pregnant. Would like to actually lose some weight before I do! Glad you are here! Please feel free to add me as a friend! Good luck to you!

Please feel free to add me too! Jane

Glad you are here! Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like extra support! ~Jane

Thank you for writing this! I feel like I am starting to go backwards and it is nice to hear I am not alone. WE can do this! It seems to work so much better for me when I am accountable to others. Thanks again! Jane

You can do it!!!

Glad you are here and you can do it!

You all are so great! The end :)

1/4 of a mile is awesome! I, too, am planning on having kids and want to be as healthy as possibly. Good luck on your journey! Jane

It is worth it! And you will continue to lose. It just isn't necessarily on our time schedule :) At least that is what I keep telling myself! Glad you are here :)

Glad you are! I have found this website and the people to be a wonderful uplifting part of my day! You're gonna do great! Jane

You can do it! I have done Weight Watchers as well and definitely lost weight. However there is something about the support on here that is extra amazing! Glad you are here :) Jane

Congratulations!! Great job :)

That is so great! I had 1/2 a regular coke for the first time in almost a month last week and it was just okay. And I love Coke! I haven't gotten to no diet sodas yet but it's maybe just 5 a week at this point. I miss Mountain Due too. But rather eat 140 calories is something else to actually fill me up :)

Can't believe I will be 37 next month! Loving MFP :)

I love it as well! MFP has made such a difference with all the amazing support people give. I feel like I am accountable to so many people. :) Definitely give it a try! Jane

I have just loved using MFP. Weight Watchers is a great program too but there is something about the support from all these people all over the country and world that is extra special. Glad you're here! Jane

Hey there! The support on here is amazing! I've done Weight Watchers in the past and had success, but I have just love this site with all the support. Glad you are here :) Jane

Congratulations!!! :flowerforyou:

I have heard both... Since I am fairly new, I am trying to hit the original calorie goal without exercise calories included. If you're hungry then eat... but if it's just because the pizza or cake looks good then maybe wait til you're hungry :) And believe me I love pizza and cake! Don't know if this helps or even makes…

I am so sorry for your broken heart! But what an amazing accomplishment you have made with your health and body! The broken heart will mend... I promise. Allow yourself to feel sad. Keep posting on here and we will keep you motivated! Jane

Yes, it IS the doing it! I have loved using MFP so far. The support is amazing! Glad you're here :) Jane

Swimming is great! Good luck on your journey of having a baby :) I too am trying to lose some weight before I get pregnant again :) We can do this! Jane

Thanks fo sharing this! I can't have any type of peanut butter in my house :( I'll eat it all no matter if it natural or not!

Hi there! Glad you are here. Happy to encourage you as I need a lot of encouragement as well! Jane

You can do it! Jane

Hi Paul! Glad you are back :) Jane
