Hello. My name is Tina. I have been using MFP for over 2 years now. I come and I go. My goal is eventually to be under 145 lbs. I'm 47 5'4". Currently battling to get and stay under 160. Keeping on track weekends and holidays are a huge battle for me so looking forward to the support. Good luck everyone!!

I can relate. I have gained about the same from a knee injury. So hard to get motivated! Add me if you like :)

Your hard work and dedication is paying off! Congratulations!

Here is an interesting site with a formula for counting juicing calories. :smile: http://www.all-about-juicing.com/calories-in-juicing-recipes.html

Check out Myphytos.com. Hundreds of juicing recipes with nutritional values and calories and a calculator to create your own! Great site.

I'm new to Juicing. After much debate bought the Hurom 100. So easy to use and clean. Very quiet and comes with a 10 year warranty. Loving it!

Incredible start! Great job!

Are you new to MFP? I agree it can be a bit time consuming at first but shouldn't take you more than 10 min tops!! I would suggest you take the time to build your "meals" list and "my foods" list as this will save much time in the long run. Also when you log foods you have the option to choose " right , wrong or "I don't…

I have tried several brands. My favorite it Natures Own unsweetened. Only 30 calories per cup. I use it in everything and drink it daily. I do not like any of the flavored or sweetened varieties or the tetra packs that do not require refrigeration Only the pure real stuff for me!. It is a bit of an acquired taste. When I…

I am almost 5'4". with a large frame. My goal is not to be skinny.My original goal was 150. I am now 9 pounds from that goal and thinking I could be under 140 and not be too thin. Darn!!!

I have Bodymedia Link as well and am very impressed. I have an iphone 5 and have no trouble with it linking. So handy to be able to check your progress anytime during the day to see where your at for calories, steps and exercise. When I set up my profile and goals and follow the recommendations I have lost the exact weight…

Don't be discouraged. I can relate. I am also 5'4" . I am 47 years old. Weigh 159 with body fat % at 29.4. I have my calorie goal set at 1340 but I use the Bodymedia armband so it can fluctuate. I exercise 6 days a week including a bit of running, lots of walking and throw in some core and strength training such as Jillian…

I've' had 2 nights of 8 :hours since Nov 2012.. Nightly average is 6:10 min.

I buy a cantaloupe, honeydew, pineapple and a bunch of grapes. Prepare the works in chunks. Store in containers in the fridge. It makes 8-10 servings. A great snack to grab and go or when you get the munchies at home. mmm delicious:)

If your icon does not stay showing. Unplug your Bodymedia and plug it back in. The pop up will reappear and show the info. Click on 'show hidden icons' at the lower right of your pc and there you should be able to change the settings so Bodymedia will show up when you hover over the icon. Hope this helps!

Day 2 - I got this!! This is a great challenge. No excuses - You can do this anywhere!!

Hello! I am 46. Happily married for 26 years with 2 boys age 22 and 24. I live in the BC interior and love to camp, garden and hang out with my family. Hoping to lose 20 pounds before my son's wedding in July. My long term goal is to be under 140 which I haven't been since my 20's. I have been a MFP member off and on for…

Congratulations!! That's great!

I agree with trying to move your armband a bit. I wear mine about halfway between my armpit and my elbow always facing in. When I set my BMF to 6000 steps It is consistently within 30 steps of what my treadmill and Nike fit on my Ipod record. How long have you had your BMF? It takes a good week to get used to your body and…

I have used mine consistently since Jan 1st. I have lost 4.5 pounds.. I try for a 750 calorie deficit but most often am closer to 500-600.Love it!!! I have the Link so able to check easily on my phone throughout the day keep myself on track..

I am now having similar problems. Never have a problem syncing with Bluetooth but when I plug into the computer I notice I am not getting everything updated. Especially the sleep. I sync to the computer first thing every morning and after dinner. Always recorded everything within minutes until I switch PC's. My new one has…

Thanks for the input everyone! It has been helpful. I have adjusted the mets sliders gradually and seems to be working much better now!!

I drink Earths Own unsweetened almond milk. Only 40 calories per cup.When I first made the switch I would add about 1/3 cup of skim milk . Now I drink it straight and use it in place of milk in most recipes.. Mmmm good!

I find that if i unplug my Bodymedia from the computer and then plug it back in it often snycs right away!

I found the same with the Elliptical.. BMF was recording about 1/3 of the steps and fewer calories . As suggested by someone on the BMF Facebook page I tried putting the band on my calf.. Although this is not recommended my calorie count and calorie burn was almost identical to what my Elliptical was telling me. This post…

Mine is on its way!! Can't wait! Yes we need to liven up this group :) You have done amazing. Almost 40 pounds. Good for you. I am hoping to lose at least 25. I don't want to be the fat one in my son's wedding photos this summer!!!

Try doing push ups on the stairs. Feet on the floor and hands on the 4th or 5th stair. Work on them here until you can do 10 then move your hands down a stair. Before you know it you will be doing them on the floor!!
