overweight and yoga?
Ive been doing zumba classes (which I love!) consistently for some months now. A fellow classmate convinced me to stick around for a hatha yoga class. Admittedly I was hesistant because I wasn't prepared (had no mat) and most of all I had never done it before. I decided to give it shot. I borrowed a new mat and there I…

weird things you do...
...To make sure you get your daily steps in. I'm obsessed with making sure I feel the vibration of my Fitbit go off once I hit my goal of at least 10K steps per day. At times it will be late at night and I'm short by 2K so I will either march in place or walk around the house until I reach the goal. Anyone else does things…

What milestones have you reached recently?
I'm very excited today and even more motivated to push on with my new lifestyle because I'm officially under 250 lbs (248.6 lbs to be exact)! Since my start on Sept 7th I've lost 31lbs so far. This is a big deal for me because I haven't seen this weight for 6+ years and it's self-validating that this can be done and I'm…

vitamin supplements?
Just wondering if anyone takes multi vitamins in conjuction with the normal healthy foods they consume? I do eat a decent variety of fruits and vegetables but based on my nutrient stats in MFP I'm not hitting the goals for each. Most likely I'm not eating enough in my diet. Seems very difficult do achieve this with food…

Never dieted before. Started new healthy lifestyle!
Hey MFP buddies! I've always thought about losing weight but never really made a good attempt. I've been using MFP since 9/7/15 and cold turkey changed my mindset to eat healthy (starting with small changes) and exercise ever since. Lost 13 lbs so far and have another 67 lbs to go before reaching my goal. With the weight…

on my way...13 lbs lost since 9/7/15. how did you start your journey?
I started my weight loss journey on 9/7/15. I have been overweight for most of my life but never attempted to diet. I ate what ever I wanted and large portions of it until I was overly stuffed - loved fried foods, heavy carbs (mashed potatoes, pasta, etc), fast food, and some sweets. I never like taking pictures because I…
