I'm back! Postpartum weight loss...
I was really active on MFP from the end of 2011 to the summer of 2012. I lost 60lbs by eating really clean and being obsessed with working out. I went through a lot of life changed after that summer. I moved to another state with my boyfriend, his son became an active part of my life, started a new job and had to adjust to…

Need More Supporters
So I've been on MFP for over a year now. I lost about 65lbs and then kinda fell off the wagon when I moved from Virginia to New Hampshire in August. Last week I decided enough crappy food had made it's way into my body and it was time to get back on track. I returned to MFP and am tracking my food until I get on track…

sw: 279.....cw: 215....pics (hopefully!)
So, I'm about one pound shy of being 65lbs down. My motivation has gone up and down over the past 11 months. I could possibly be at my goal weight right now if I would have stuck to my diet and exercise the whole way through, but in the end it's probably better that I've learned to maintain. I'm really happy where I'm at…

Plateaued or am I missing something? HELP!!
I hear people say they get to a point where their weight loss slows down or they just stop losing weight for weeks.....well I never thought it would happen to me, especially after adding weights and working harder than I ever have. I probably sound stupid. I've done my research and I'm probably getting irritated over…

Supplements!
So, my bf is obsessed with GNC and their supplements. He takes their vitamins, protein packs and many other things. I've been thinking about trying the protein packs but I have no idea where to start. They have a women's section, but what will benefit me? Should I go for the protein you drink before, during or after a work…

From 250lbs+ to crazy about weights
Hey! I'm looking for women (or men) who can give me some insight into weight lifting. Initially a friend on MFP posted a link to an article on Nerd Fitness about Staci. She is what sparked my interest for weights initially. Here is the link:…

So far so good....40lbs with pics
So, I started this journey at the end of August 2011, weighing about 280lbs. Something snapped in me one day and I decided I needed to change. I'm 40lbs down, but it might as well be 100 because I feel amazing. I mean, that's the size of a small child! Anyway, I'm at a point where I'm VERY happy with the way I look and my…

Or people that LOVE it and tell…

Protein, Fat, Sat. Fat, Carbs
Ok, so you know how at the bottom of your food diary it displays how much Protein, Sat. Fat, and whatever else you select to track? Well, what happens when you are over in Protein and Fiber and under in fats and carbs? That's a good thing, right? Or should I want to eat my reccomended fat intake? I would think that was…

Taking control of my body!!
Hey everyone! I'm Alicia, 21 and from Virginia. I joined the gym a few months ago and started watching what I eat also.
