What a difference 40lbs makes!! Pictures :)
Hello my MFP's! I thought I would share my progress with you. I started this journey in 2010 and it's been hard, up, down, stressful, and gratifying. When I find myself discouraged (like today) I like to reflect back to my old pictures when I was at my heaviest. I just have to remember 40lbs is no easy task and if I did it…

Chin exercises??? Is that a thing?
Hello my MFP's! I was wondering if there is an exercise that could help with that pesky double chin we all battle with. I was not blessed with a beautiful jaw line but I'm willing to work to get one! If at all possible. I've seen some gimmicky things to do but I'm not sure what would really work. Please share the wealth of…

How Steph got her groove back!
Hello my beautiful MFP's. I'm sorry I've been gone for so long, my life has been turned up side down as of late. I left my boyfriend of 5 years 3 months ago. I'm a very strong willed person and when I make up my mind about something then thats it. We had lived together for 4 of the 5 years, I thought we would get married…

So far I'm down 47lbs and so excited! I weighed myself this morning and I am finally past the 200 mark! 199.2!! I almost cried I was so excited... I immediately ran out of the bathroom and danced around the house, screaming, and jumping on the bed. I really wanted to share this with all of you also. I still have 34lbs to…

Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
Well technically yesterday was the first day of MFP, but I'm down 2.8 pounds already! I was using WW before and lost 50 pounds on the old program. Then they changed the points system to points plus and I haven't been able to lose since. I actually started back to school part time while working full time and gained back 10…

Lost in a sea of Google searches... help!
I've been doing C25K and just finished my 1st week on Saturday. Woot! :tongue: While running I had to run a short part in a grassy area, I did not see a dip in the ground. I stepped into it and almost rolled my ankle but I caught myself and kept running. My ankle felt a little different while running but I thought nothing…

Sugar: good or bad?
I'm eating green grapes as a snack, but I put them in my food diary and it says there is a lot of sugar in them. Should I worry about this? Or is it a good sugar? I'm confused...

Buffets turn me on...
A winner came in today to pick up tickets (I work at a radio station). He started hitting on me and his finishing move was to give me his business card with a free buffet to the golden corral that he runs. He told me to come visit him and get a free meal... LOL!!! Buffets really get me going... LOL

Recovering Chocolate Addicts Unite!
I feel as though I have an addiction to chocolate and ice cream. I consider myself to be a recovering addict and I know I can't have a bite of chocolate or ice cream because I'll crave it like a crazy person. I cannot keep "emergency" chocolate in the house... I'll seek it out even when it's not an "emergency". I also…

Where to start? I'm lost.
I don't really exercise, but I want to! I'm not sure when to find the time... When I do exercise I get all sweaty and gross so I can't do anything afterwords but take a shower. Also, I don't know where to start... should I just run? Should I lift weights? Should I do classes? I'd love to be able to run and one day maybe…
