I'm back after almost a year =(
Hey everyone, just thought I would post to make it 'official'...I'm back after almost a year since I last logged on. After losing 30 lbs using MFP I thought I could handle weight loss on my own...wronggg!! I gained 10 lbs back and I can feel myself slipping back into old habits and the weight coming back full speed. Summer…

I met my short term goal!!
So when I first started this two months ago..I promised myself I would stick with it, and as long as I was able to lose at least 5 lbs per month, I would be happy. Well, two months later and I am down 16 lbs!!! :noway: This has only motivated me to keep going towards my total weight loss goal :drinker: Thanks all of you…

To anyone who ever sleeps in...
For some reason today I woke up only about 20 minutes ago, it's 12:11 PM here, and I have had nothing to eat/drink yet!! How on earth do I catch up on all of my calories without stuffing myself silly :noway: I have normally already had breakfast, a small snack (fiber one bar), and I'd be making lunch right now :frown:

I just have to tell someone! =D
So this whole thing started for me a month ago, and I weighed in once a week. Two weeks ago I had lost 4 lbs! But I decided for the holidays I would not weigh in as much because knowing me, I would either gain or maintain, so there was no point. Well today (two weeks later) I gave in, and had to weigh myself... I was…

Indoor Bike Exercise Trainer?
Has anyone used one of these? What's a good brand? And does anyone know where I can get one at a reasonable price? I am thinking of purchasing one because the weather is getting super cold here, almost unbearable :grumble: and I can't afford to go to a nice warm gym right now, so it seems like a nice solution! I would love…

BMR??
So I heard recently that you are supposed to eat as many calories per day as your BMR? I just want to know if this is true for all people?? Your estimated BMR is: 1,725 calories/day* I don't think I could eat that much per day!! Right now I am at 1200 / day and I eat my exercise calories...but I don't think I could bring…

Very upsetting =(
Yesterday was my first weigh in, I did awesome all week, I went from fast food all the time and soda every day, to eating healthy, and within my calorie limits, and working out at least 30 minutes a day...and I lost 2 lbs!! Then just now I got curious (I know I should have stayed away from the scale) But I gained the 2 lbs…

Calorie Question
So I find myself trying to hoard my calories so that I have enough during the day in case I get really hungry. But then at the end of the night, I have like 600-700 calories that I haven't eaten yet! I was just wondering how many calories you all eat per meal? I am trying to get used to counting everything, and getting a…

Kicking soda out?
I used to be a huge soda (coke) drinker (like 4 days ago before I joined :laugh: ) But I have decided to cut it completely out of my diet. I would normally drink about 3 or 4 sodas per day! Will that make a big difference in my weight loss/ health? I am doing really good, and haven't had any cravings for soda yet, water…

Enough motivation for me!
:smile: So I weighed in for the first time, since I started 1 week ago.... and I lost 2 lbs!! :noway: I didn't think this would work when I first joined, and I figured I would do something wrong. But I guess I'm doing something right!! This was the motivation I needed to continue counting my calories, and exercising! Hope…
