Back again
Here I am again. This is not my first rodeo folks. 3 years ago I did great, I lost over 75lbs, then work and stress happened, and I crept right back to where I had started. Some things I learned the first time around: 1. consistency is key 2. One bad day does not destroy everything, just start over again tomorrow. 3.…

My progress still a ways to go
I have been on MFP for over a year now. I have lost over 60lbs, it's been hard and I have wanted to give up plenty of times. I have been meaning to post a progress pic for a long time now but just never could bring myself to do so because I still hate having my picture taken, but what the hell! Here it is.

Success without the scale moving much
SO the last 6 months or so I haven't seen the scale move much at all and was beginning to think it would never move more than a half pound at a time again. But I noticed something last night while browsing through some pics, (which I am still not brave enough to post on here) that the picture I took when I started insanity…

Active kids
I know for myself I make sure my kids are doing some physical activities every day. On days I jog I take them with me and they either run with me or ride their scooters (that's 3 miles and 7 miles on saturdays). I also let them box, it keeps the arguing to a minimum plus they have a great time doing it. I don't let them…

Beachbody Slimming Formula
Anyone here tried it? I want some input? I have been using it for two weeks now to try to kick this stupid plateau that is too stubborn to be budged by any other method I have tried. The first week I got some nasty headaches but totally had energy, I think the headaches were due to not enough hydration though. This is my…

Fat girl complex
Okay so I am by no means a skinny girl yet, but I have heard some people make comments about losing a lot of weight and still having the "fat girl/guy complex" you know what I mean. Sitting on a chair carefully just to make sure it can hold your weight, eventhough you no longer need to worry about that. Asking your…

NSV . . . Just took me awhile to realize it
So I have been on a plateau since January so I really hadn't noticed much, but the other day I was at Knott's Berry Farm with my kids. Quick note I have hated amusement parks for years because to be honest I felt like I was too big for ALL of the rides. So back to my story, I realized that I could comfortably fit into…

Anyone tried Oxy Elite Pro
I am not a fan of diet pills at all, but was given a free 10 day supply of Oxy Elite Pro when I bought some viatmins at GNC the other day and just wondering if anyone around MFP land has tried this.

Looking Younger????
My husband made a comment to me the other day, he said "since losing weight you look younger and taller" LOL I thought he was the only one that thought this way but in the last week I have noticed a trend, which is quite flattering since I am turning 30 on Friday. Everytime I have gone to buy cigarettes in the past week I…

How long did it take you to get where you are now?
I started with 93lbs to lose, I now have 65lbs to lose and feel great but keep getting really frustrated when two and three weeks go by with nothing lost. I have been at this 5 months now and am fully dedicated (okay except one or two cheats). I would just like to know from some of you how long it took you to reach your…

Exercise Calories
Just curious as to where everyone else is at. How much of your exercise calories do you usually eat on a normal day? I try really hard but always seem to never get anywhere close, usually between 400 -600 under my calorie goal.
