I do the same thing as stellar. The phone app is great! Welcome!

I agree! The app is totally worth it too! Popular chain restaurants are on there. It's great, and saved me a couple of times from making a really, really bad decision. WELCOME!

Welcome! This site will help you stay motivated and help you with those choices you need to make. Just make sure to get the app on your phone. Alot of people consider this to be a change of life rather than a diet. I know that I need to change and stay changed. Just like I used to smoke and had to quit. Good luck with your…

I've only been here a couple of weeks. Looking for friends as well! I feel like I am always doing the motivating, I need some as well!

Bergen County, New Jersey!

Great job! You look awesome!

You are such an inspiration to us all! Thanks for sharing!

I am with you all the way! Had baby #2 last December and she is almost 9 months and realized now that I have a girl, I want to be a positive role model for her. My mom was obese and still is, she never played games with us, and was always too tired! I want to be that "fit" mom that I see with her two kids running around. I…

THANKS everyone! This really helped. Going out tomorrow.

NOPE! And never will! And if he cheats on me, he's gonna have another thing coming! And he knows it! LOL! We love each other too much!

I make peanut butter and jelly sandwich and eat half at my desk. I sometimes bring a thermos filled with about a cup of milk, keeps me going. I don't know what grade you teach, elementary school is rough, I am in a middle school and would eat while going to my next class down the hall. Protein bars are always good. Good…

Welcome! I've only been here about two weeks and it's been great. Lots of support and people in the same boat. I love food too! I never felt like I ate because I was sad or happy. I just like to eat, and I never feel full. Good luck with your weight loss journey!

Welcome to MFP! I've been here about 2 weeks now, and this is the best weight loss site ever and it's FREE!

You easily look 10 years younger. Great job.

You made the first great first step in joining this site. It's a great site. Feel free to friend me. I am trying to loose a total of 35+ lbs and it is all baby fat, from two kids. My little one is almost 9 months old. I was actually 15 lighter after birth but gained since. BOO! Good luck in your journey and hopefully I…

My vegan friend has done this several times. She gets a severe headache the second day then all is well. She also poops alot, 4-6 times a day. She usually looses between 10-15 lbs but gains between 5-8 lbs back within a couple of days. She does it 3-4 times a year. I wouldn't do it, but it works for my friend and it may…

Great post! I feel the same way, I usually bring my own dressing and get a salad. I know, how exciting. I sometime get things I want, just do an extra workout for a day or two, and drink alot of water! I am terrified to go back to work. I am a teacher and I am going back after Labor day. People just drop off food in the…

Great job. Thanks for sharing with us!

I tried quitting 5-6 times until I realized how gross I smelled, that i couldn't walk up a flight of stairs, AND I tried to run and felt like I was going to die. Then did it cold turkey. I really, really wanted to do it the last time because I finally realized what it was doing to my body. If your mind wants it you can do…

This place has been awesome for me so far. It has taken me awhile to figure out which foods I would like to eat instead of the fatty, high calorie foods I crave. Good luck and feel free to add me as well. I need some encouragement too.

Go to the exercise tool bar at the top, add a cardiovascular exercise, type in gardening.

There is a gardening and mowing selection that I have found. Hopefully that helps.

This is a great site. I do the same as you do. I will do it for a month then stop and get annoyed that I "have to" do it. That is exercise and log in my food. So, enough is enough and I swear this time I am sticking to it. Hope to see you around!

Slow and steady.....I eat salads for lunch and have and egg with bread for breakfast......3 small calorie snacks a day.....and what I consider a large dinner of 400 calories. You can do this! I had about 40 lbs. to lose also and I some how managed to go on vacation and lose a lb. Ken's lite dressing do not have alot of…

Def see a difference in your face and waist! Keep up the GREAT work you've been doing!

15 lbs is a great achievement! Keep it up, you will get to smaller and smaller sizes. Just don't give in! Women's clothes are weird too. You could be one size at one store and two sizes smaller at another. Good luck with your journey!

It's great that you joined. There is lots of help on here. I've only been part of this community for about two weeks though I joined in July. Good luck and hope to see you around.

For food intake, salad has become my best friend. Also for a crunch magic pop, I buy it at Shoprite, its these rice puffs that are 15 calories, super good. I also drink lots of water before I eat. Usually while cooking, I feel fuller sooner. Good luck and see you around.

You loom great! Keep it going, whatever you are doing.

I only started two weeks ago. Your right about how good this site is. I love the app as well. I went out for lunch at applebees and was able to find something ASAP. Well, welcome and hope to see you around.
