You do have ups and downs but we all do. I am so glad you said screw it to the screw it attitude. You have a great attitude and with some good support you can definitely achieve all your goals. Feel free to add me. ANd no matter what never give up.

It really depends on you and your body. I work out in the morning before I eat. I cannot eat before going to the gym so in the evening I have a granola bar maybe an hour or so before working out.

WELCOME! I started years ago on the South Beach Diet. Still use it primarily these days but have expanded a bit. You will like this site alot of good people. Feel free to add me!

I came up with it with my Endocrinologist.

Sent you a request.

i think it all depends on your schedule and lifestyle. For me after 8 is really pushing it but that's because I go to bed around 10-10:30

Absolutely Keep up the good work.

See I came up with a knack of when i see that stuff I convert it in my head the calories. So instead of seeing CAKE I see 365 calories and 30 mins of hard elliptical work! That usually steers me right away.

I am an enormous picky eater for things I don't like. Now on top of it I am pickier (if that's possible) because I won't eat anything unhealthy unless I really really want it. (rarely) Anyway. I don't like chicken so I can't help there and unfortunately I feat tons of fish, but what about turkey meat, (turkey hamburgers,…

Welcome Kellie! feel free to add me!

I weigh myself every 3 months when I go to the doctor. Otherwise I can become wrapped up in the numbers. If you feel it is taking over put the scale away and do your thing. Make it a special thing once a week.

I tried it and completely didn't like it. I did feel it was like standing in line picking which one you thought wasn't crazy, was your type, was good looking, etc etc. I just really like the old fashioned way of meeting people. i gave up on it, the time I spent online I could have been here or at the gym!

Feel free for anyone to add me. I feel like I am the queen of this topic. I have gained and lost so many times over the course 10 years. I have lost up to 70 pounds and gained 45 back. The least was lost 30 gained 20 back. Part of it is discouragement, part of it is support, and part of it is stupidity! I have a huge…

I go 6 times a week around 6:00 each night. i stay for an hour. I also workout in the mornings at home for about a half hour. I normally go by myself on Sunday's is my lazy gym day I go with a friend who is older and has had hip replacement surgery to motivate her.

1973!

Eat some more things that are high in fiber they will keep you more full. Sometimes when I am hungry I have an apple to fill me up.

Congrats on your first day. Feel free to add me.

Obsessed and completely addicted to working out. I absolutely love going to the gym and working out at home. i work out 2 times a day and always want more. I am also 100% completely addicted to eat healthy,I love it wouldn't want to be any other way.

Ok that's so gross. If the guy is approachable then I would try to address it with him, but it sounds like the guy isn't approachable. If he isn't then I would bring it up with management.

KICK! I love the fluffy comment. Add me. You got this and the great thing I like about your attitude you want to be healthy! That is so important. You got this!

I weigh myself 4 times a year max and that's when I go to the endocrinologist. I don't let the scale try to drive me. Some people can do this and others need to weigh themselves daily. Don't be nervous go with the flow. If you put in your mind it didn't move then when it moves backwards you will be motivated. And if it…

My theory is this I don't post anything on the internet that I don't want the world to see or read.

Hi there, i have about 50 pounds i would like to loose scale wise, definitely feel free to add me. I believe we should all be here to motivate each other and I definitely have found some great people on MFP!!! And don't worry sometimes you fall off the wagon that's ok as long as you get right back up there. And Dee yummy…

I agree with all of the above. I would definitely ask someone at the gym to go over it with you. It's a great machine and can do alot for you but it's always better to have someone show you in person.

Watch you speed that you are going at and your breathing. Build it up so maybe 2 mins then walk 2 mins then see if you can do 3 mins and so forth.

Great job. I too lose very slow. I will drop and then it will slow down to a snails pace. I say as long as it keeps coming off my body keeps changing I continue. And even when it doesn't come off I will continue. :-)

Congrats!!!! Sometimes we crave things that we don't really want. Your body will thank you later!

Adding you now. Congrats on the loss!!!!

I happen to like Chimay which is a whooping 265 calories a serving. So when I want one I have one but it is very very sparingly. (I think the last time I treated myself was a few months ago) and then I make sure I work it off the next day.

I always do lots of research on line. So whatever body part or machine I want to learn about I research it. I also talk to friends and trainers at the gym I watch others for ideas. I basically do strength training every other day (at the gym) I choose either chest and triceps, back and biceps, or legs. I pick several…
