Snowshoeing
I love to snowshoe, :love: it was my favorite excursion last year. Today was the first time I was able to get to the mountain this winter, and it was just as great as I remembered. Of course it helped that the sun was out and the scenery was beautiful. I snowshoed for 2 1/2 hours and took 13, 241 steps and burned 1472…

I AM BACK !!!
Hey MFP'ers I am back. I haven't logged in my food or anything since about the end of March, went through a whole lot of depression as well as ANOTHER broken heart and really didn't care much anymore and now I AM BACK. I have gained about 15 pounds back during this time, which surprises me as I would have thought it would…

Some Guys Are Just Not Nice
So I've been single for a while, about 3 years. I've tried dating some, but not much. I have a confidence issue when it comes to men, but in general I am a very confident person. I have lost 60 pounds and thought after 3 years of being single that I am ready to see what's out there. My friends talked me into going on line…

Got Rid of Fat Clothes & Did Some Good
Last weekend about 8 of my girlfriends that have lost a bunch of weight got ALL our "fat" clothes together and had a sale to raise money for "Race for the Cure" to benefit breast cancer. 2 of the girlfriends are survivors and we had put together a team for the race coming up in a couple of weeks. We would have been happy…

Going to the gym tonight
OK...I've been going to the gym in the morning and lifting, then hiding in the cardio room in the evening. But I have changed my mind. I'm going to the gym tonight for the first time in 2 years and I'm going to lift in the weight area during the busy time. I've been avoiding the weight area in the evening because my…

Burned 1687 Calories
I went snow shoeing today for 3+ hours, we only took one 5 minute break, otherwise we just kept going. The loop was only about 8 miles, but it was tough...the snow was wet and heavy due to being late in the season, and the hills were tough. There were many soft spots where the snow was so soft that I sunk in about a foot…

First Bikini EVER
I just purchased my first bikini ever. I'm 48 years old and have never owned one. I decided that I'm going to wear this thing this summer. Now that I'm less than 10 pounds from my final goal I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. When I started this journey, I told my best friend that if I can get from size 18…

Clothes to Women's Shelter
I'm finally letting go of my large clothes. I'm bringing 15 bags of clothes that I've shrunk out of to the women's shelter today. I am letting them go as I will NEVER be back to that size again. The clothes range from size 10 to size 18. I am now a size 6. :smile:

Giving Thanks to ALL of You - I'm a Loser
I am very thankful for all my friends here. Thanks to all of you and your support I just bought size 8 jeans yesterday :smile: . I couldn't have ever done it without all of you :flowerforyou: . This time last year I was busting out of size 16 jeans, they were so tight I had to lay down to zip them up, but I was too…

Wrapped in Lettuce
I wrap everything that goes on a bun, between bread or in a torilla in lettuce. It's great and you don't miss the bread. I've even ordered a hamburger at a restaurant and asked them for a large piece of lettuce instead of the bun. Try it, you'll love it. It saves a lot of empty calories since most people eat white bread…

Very Sad Girl
Hey guys, I haven't been on the site this last week, haven't even logged my food or anything. I've just been very depressed and of course, eating my sorrows away (which didn't work). I thought that I should post this here because I know that you guys are such great and supportive people, and I also know that it would help.…

Newbie Here
Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I'm hoping that this site will help me with the last 15 or 20 pounds. Over the last year I've lost about 50 pounds and now I seem to be stuck. I just want to take these last few pounds off to make my goal. I've never been skinny before, and I'm now the smallest that I've ever…
