Being sick
I've been sick with a bad case of bronchitis for a week. I did pretty good for the first few days but then being sick, I didn't want to try anymore because I really didn't want to eat. Two big problems I encountered were totally craving carbs because they are easy to eat and fast energy - not an ideal situation when on low…

Don't Give Up
I thought I'd share something that I realized yesterday. - I have lost 24 lbs in under 90 days. It was difficult at the beginning, making changes and not eating what everyone else did, but it didn't kill me. My best motors that, eventually the weight loss will lead to hip replacement and then I won't be in constant pain.…

It's working
I'm down another 2 pounds! I've lost 24 lbs. in 75 days, including making it through the holidays. I'm not done yet - the doctor wants me down another 26 pounds but to be honest, I'd like to be down even more- like 20 more than what he wants. I've been married for 30 years and it would be great to get back to (or better…

Reply on weekend struggles
I think it was someone in this group that asked how to stay on track over the weekend. I've had the same problem. What I've done is make my weigh in day Monday so I'm more motivated to stay focused. Also, I try to keep busy. Being bored leads me to mindless "cravings". Hope this helps.

Update
I promised to post my weekly weigh-in so here it is. As of this morning, I have been recording in MFP for 64 days. I currently weigh 251.5 and I'm down 18.5 lbs. I'm kinda embarrassed to be putting this out there as I never tell anyone what I weigh and at 5'6" it is too much. I'm scared I won't be able to lose enough to…

Loving seeing so many supportive people here.
I'm so happy to see so many people out there willing to help each other with our weight loss journeys. I've had a good couple of days and I shared my update earlier. I do want everyone to know that I've been loosing my weight without any exercise other than daily walking. I'm restricted because of a really bad hip. I feel…

Looking for some help
I am a 53 year old woman who needs a new hip. The doctor told me in October that I had to loose 40 or better yet 50 pounds before the surgery could be done to reduce the risks. Then he told me that I had to stop my 2 15 minute walks per day, use handicapped parking and a walking stick. Exercising was going to cause too…

Update
Hi Everyone Who Is Looking For A Weight Loss Buddy. I had to post some good news from me. I've been logging in for 60 days and Yesterday I was down all day with a migraine - barely ate or drank anything at all. After the miracle of pharmaceuticals, I was fine but dehydrated this morning. I weighed myself but really didn't…

These are great
I haven't explored the many aspects of MFP but I think the groups, forums and posts are wonderful. Thanks for sharing and keeping us motivated.
