OMG!!!

Stealing this one for sure!!!

Ummmm, these all sound AMAZING!!!

Thank you! I am really trying to learn this time around to be more successful so I can understand and not just give up like in the past.

I am glad I asked, I have been eating under my calories to give wiggle room in case my logging is off and never eating exercise calories but I have been getting major headaches I think from not eating?

I guess I see people dropping 3-5 a week and assumed I was doing something wrong. 5 didn't seem like a lot and it goes back up depending on the day

I do! I am always looking for support and positive vibes! I need it for sure!

So glad I stumbled on this thread! Great tips for me as I struggle with this as well and just getting into the swings of things into my second week.

I want to thank all of you so much for commenting and contributing answers! This has been a huge help for me, I tend to give up quickly, over obsess, fixate on the wrong things and when I don't see results immediate I give up...Having comments from people who have been there, what works for them, ect is helpful for me to…

So is calories for the week different then calories for the day?

Same her, I used my MFP about 2 yrs ago with great success, had knee surgery and gained everything back and then some!!! I am on day 7 and just trying to take it one day at a time..be accountable and build a strong network of people around me on here that I can turn to and be honest with when I am having a rough day.…

It's all about the support!!! feel free to add me :)

And thank you, I think I was so focused on the steps, I forgot about paying attention to the calories overall I am burning!

I do currently have it on my non dominant arm but I do wear it pretty lose as I feel like I read somewhere you were supposed to. I defiantly will tighten it up today and see how it goes! Thanks!

Ok, I have a Charge HR, I really want to give this a go but I know I have not taken 2500 steps right now at 2:15 in the afternoon :( At least not today. I will take your suggestion and give it a few weeks. Thanks :)

Struggling to make it a way of life and not a "job"! So glad I am not the only one! Always looking for support and friends with the same struggles :)

Mine was all alone in my bathroom last week when I looked down at the scale that had been ignored for months and months and months. I stepped on it and almost keeled over from crying so hard :( I could not believe I had allowed myself to get to the heaviest I had ever been...I was literally immobile from the shock of it. I…

You got this!!!! Keep going!!!!

GOOD FOR YOU!!!!! Way to go....

To NOT eat any of the donuts a co worker brought in...:(

Washington State

I would love to be added by anyone in this thread, I also like to live in a world of denial about my TRUE size in clothes. Monday I had a bit of a breakthrough...Breakdown? And I am hoping with support and some accountability from others and myself...I avoided this site for awhile after having some success years ago on…

Feel free to add me :)

THAT is an amazing job!! Good for you and vibrates on your weight loss. Can I ask how you worked on getting yourself into that head space? I know it's an emotional thing, I just don't know how to change my thoughts about food, ect?

Awesome job! I also could eat Doritos mindlessly

Not sure I can give up BACON!!! LOL, that would be huge for me though :-)

I have about 100 pounds to lose and had knee surgery in December of last year...I have gained back 20 pounds of the weight I HAD lost from lack of exercise since surgery :(. Feeling VERY discouraged, not really sure how to get motivated again. I would appreciate any words of encouragement or advice to get back on the…

Thanks! This is a great article... If you're not losing weight, then you're not eating at a deficit. You're underestimating your intake &/or overestimating your burn. Log everything you eat accurately & honestly. Find reliable database entries. (There's a lot of incorrect data in there.) Weigh your food. Eat back half your…

The crazy thing is, I am really counting every single calorie and logging EVERYTHING! Even the equal packets I am using for my tea. MY husband thinks I am eating to few calories but I am right on with me calorie intake on MFP.
