This made my day
I am a member of a Facebook for plant based eating, and the others on the page know that I have lost a lot of weight. One of them who writes a blog contacted me and asked me to send her pics and my story so she could feature it on her blog, and it is on there today! It has made my day. I would have never, ever thought that…

Yoga for beginners?
I need some suggestions for a good yoga DVD for beginners. I have lost over 100 pounds doing cardio, and have now added in some strength. I have always wanted to do yoga, but honestly 100 pounds ago I was not near flexible enough to even try. So I need something simple...

Two NSVs, all in one day!
The first was this morning, when I went for a physical at my regular doctor. I have not been to him since I started losing weight, so he was shocked, to say the least. My blood pressure was fabulous (116/68), my resting heart rate was 62, and of course I was waaay lighter. He ordered a bunch of blood work, which I can't…

Over halfway there w/ PICS
I have hesitated to do this, because I was afraid that there was not really that much difference, but this morning I stepped on the scale and discovered I had finally hit the 100 pounds lost mark, so I decided it was time. I started my weight loss journey in March 2012 of this year at 338 pounds, and this morning I weighed…

Several NSV's today
Today I had to attend an all day risk management class at the local college. This resulted in a LOT of walking. Normally I would have been freaked out by the mere thought of walking that much, a lot of it is even uphill. Today I was excited because I could get in some extra walking. I was in a large group, and every time…

New clothes(to me), super excited!!!!

I have not had a lot of spare money, with three kids going back to school, and one older one that just gave me a couple weeks notice that she is getting married! So I heard that one of…

Need help, kind of stalled
I have lost a total of 80 pounds since March, mainly due to changing to a whole foods, plant based diet. In the last couple of months I have added a decent amount of exercise to the mix. But now my weight loss has all but stalled. I am not sure what I need to be doing differently. I had my setting set to sedentary, as I…

Iron needs?
I am eating a whole foods, plant based diet and have been since March 11th of this year. In that time, I have lost 71 pounds and feel fabulous. MFP shows my iron needs to be somewhere around 80 mg a day. I have done some online research and everything else I have seen indicates that for someone my age I should need around…

Hello!
I am new to My FItness Pal, discovered it a week ago thanks to the sherif at the agency where I work! I started my weight loss journey almost 4 months ago, on March 11th. At that time I weighed 338 pounds, and I was fed up. I was tired of being tired all the time. I watched a couple of food documentaries that changed the…
