Returning to MPF after years away
I have been away so long, most of the friends I had on here are gone! I need help staying motivated. I have a bad habit of getting complacent after losing about 20 pounds. Help me :-)

Food dreams
Anyone else having food dreams? I had a weird one last night about being in a restaurant and ordering a turkey sandwich.

Pot Luck Dinner Control
I have been doing very well thus far since I joined MFP (15 days!). Tonight is the 1st time I am going to a dinner that I do not have control of what is served.

Jillian Michaels workout
Do you recommend the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred workout for someone who is not in very good physical shape yet? Or is it too hard? Someone posted that it is a good 20 minute workout.
