Bye Bye 40 lbs... and Hello again!
Hello! I thought I would post my success story to perhaps motivate others but also to inspire myself at the same time. I lost a little over 40 lbs back in 2011-2012 using MFP. However, over the last few years, I have seen my weight climb back up. I am refocused and ready to lose the weight again! I am looking for others…

Sloppy Mommy to Fit Mommy - 40 lbs GONE - pics!
I lost 40 lbs with the help of MFP a while back (Sept. 2011 - May 2012). I was able to maintain that weight until October 2012. Then 9 lbs crept back on from October 2012 - December 2012. I thought I would post my success story to help motivate myself to get rid of those 9 lbs in the new year! Here are my stats: 37 years…

Post your protein shake recipe here!
I love having a protein shake in the morning. I was never a fan of drinking my calories (because I love to eat) but besides eggs, I was really struggling to get a good amount of protein in the morning. I am now a believer of shakes when it comes to breakfast! I love the convenience of drinking it on my drive to work and…

Going on vacation - what's your #1 tip?
So I have been losing weight consistently for the last 7 weeks and now we're going away for 1 week so I'm panicking! We'll be driving 10 hours to our destination, staying in a hotel (so no full kitchen to cook meals), shopping and watching my son's sports team in a tournament. Anyone have any tips????

Can low carb = queasy tummy?
So, I have had a queasy tummy on and off for the last 3-4 weeks or so. No, I'm not pregnant. I'm not doing a low carb diet per say but as high carb foods do tend to have more calories, I do find myself skipping on the bread, pasta and rice more times than not. Just wondering if anyone has ever experienced a slight nauseous…

Short 5 feet ladies... what is your goal weight?
I'm 5 feet 0 which, according to the BMI charts, means I should weigh between 102-128. I currently weigh 127 and I'm aiming to getting back to my pre-Christmas weight of 121 but that doesn't even put me in the middle of the range. I'm thinking of going for 110-115. What's your goal weight? SW 161.3 lbs CW 127 GW 121 UGW…

Thanks Goodness for fruit and veggies :)
Ok, so I have been eating healthy (regularly) for over a year now. Like many of you, alot of my cals come from fruit, veggies, lean meats, dairy, etc. Anyways, last week, I ran out of fruit and veggies for a day (fresh, canned and frozen). I saw it coming the days prior but figured the family could make it with no fruit…

What keeps you on the wagon?
I'm sure many of us have tried many times to lose weight. The science/math is pretty straight forward - eat less, move more and you will lose weight. The recipe is the easy part. The hard part is sticking to it! Sometimes we succeed and get to our goals and other times, we just give up or "fall off the wagon". So, to all…

LOST 40 lbs!
Hi everyone (again). I'm back. I have been away for months as I thought I was "cured". I lost 40 lbs through MFP from Sept. 2011-May 2012 and then pretty much maintained that weight for 5 months. Then in October 2012, I slowly began getting back into my bad habits and BAM, I'm up 10 lbs! So, I thought I should join MFP…
