Planet Fitness Yay or Nay?
A new Planet Fitness is opening in my area next week. They are offering $1 to join $10/month. I loathe gyms, I've had some bad experiences at them so what type of gym is it & is the personnel trained or is it just a pick up joint for all the members?

NSVs... I need to start believing in myself
So I'm close to 30lbs lost & I still (STILL!?!) don't believe it, I don't see it. I haven't taken pictures or measurements cause I don't like pictures of me & I was embarrassed by how big I was so I didn't want to put a number to it. BUT I've had two NSV recently that are my slap in the face to get me to start believing in…

First NSV
My youngest son likes to rub my belly while we are reading stories & cuddling before nap. Today before nap he told me he can no longer sing the jello song (watch it wiggle it, see it jiggle) because my belly doesn't jiggle like it use to & it was getting flat like his. :happy: :laugh:

looking for more friends
I've been on MFP for about 4 months & I'm looking for more friends. I'm looking to lose about 75lbs but have set up my ticker to follow smaller goals. I'm trying to not see this as a diet but a life style change.......and this has been difficult the past month. Somehow my view changed from what I can have to what I can't…

How to get motiviated

Why is too much fiber a negative
So MFP has my recommended fiber at 20g...which by everything I've heard/read is TOO low. I try to get 25-30g a day. In my totals on MFP that's seen as a negative & it's in red....took me a few days to realize I was over my limit & not under MFP limit of 20g Ya know, the big negative sign in front of it had me thinking it…

Just joined & not sure where to start
So I just joined & I'm not even sure where to begin. I'm turning 41 next month. I'm at my heaviest (unless you count 4 yrs ago when I was pregnant & weighed 8 more lbs than I do now). I weigh 242 lbs ....which makes no sense. I have gained 8lbs in the last 3 months & I've been eating a salad for one of my meals 5 or 6 days…
