In the last year or so I lost a significant amount of weight, but have done reeeeally badly over the last 6 months, and am determined to get back on track and finally reach my goal :) Just looking for some friends to help share the journey with.

Funny...
Funny how body image works. 6 months ago I finally weighed 150 lbs! Today, at 160.2 lbs, I feel disgusting. Fat, bloated, gross. I started looking through some pictures, of my initial weight loss journey, and found the pictures from February when I finally reached the 160 lbs mark. I look so happy, so confident. My body…

Losing motivation, looking for advice
Hi everyone! I began trying to lose weight seriously in October, and since..using a healthy diet and exercise, I am down around 30 lbs. I stick to a 1200-1400 calorie day (I am eating healthy, just to clarify) and have been going to the gym 3-5 times a week, as well as doing work out videos at home when I get the chance…

CHIPS IN THE HOUSE!! ARRGGHHH!!!
My in-laws are in town this week - they have the WORST eating habits. Normally I resist snacking on junk because I don't buy it, but right now my pantry is full of chips, etc. SO hard to resist as I sit here :( My vent for the day!

New Friends?!
Hello all! This is my 2nd time starting up with mfp...last time I had a great network of friends who really helped out a lot with the day to day struggles! Since I have started up this time, I have noticed that all of my 'old' friends are no longer active in their accounts, and now I am searching for a new support system…

Cheating?!?!?
I am sitting here enjoying my plate loaded with fresh veggies and I honestly feel like I am cheating! How awesome is it that I can eat SO many and still be well within my calories for the day?? LOVE it! Thinking about lunch? Have some veggies!!!!!!

Over in Protein & Fiber
I seem to be consistently over in the protein & fiber categories. For example, today my goal in Protein is 45g and I am at 76g, and in fiber my goal is 14g and I am at 26g. Is this a bad thing? The negative red numbers on my food diary are really stressing me out! haha

Running...where to start?
I would really like to start running. Working full time and being a mom/wife doesn't leave me much time for the gym, not to mention that the only one around is really pricey, and walking only gives me so much satisfaction/burnt calories. I have never been a runner, and in fact in high school when we had to do 5km runs…

I look 6 months pregnant.
I am the property manager of a modular home community. I love my job, love the residents and have formed great bonds with many of them. I found out today that there is a rumor going around the community that I am 6 months pregnant and will be quitting any day now. As if my self esteem isn't bad enough already, now I find…

Don't Understand :(
For the last 6 months I have fluctuated from 192-198 lbs, one day I would be 192, the next 195, the next 198, and back and forth and all over the place. The day I decided to make a change was when I stepped on the scale and it read '199'. So, for the past 2 weeks I have been eating 1200 calories a day, and going to the gym…

Late Night Snack? HELP!
Ok, so , I was nearly 600 calories under for the day...I am super hungry....how horrible would it be if I ate right now (11pm). Nothing big, just a snack. Come on, someone give me permission!

Hiding the scale!
I have decided that I am going to have my husband hide the scale for 2 weeks! I seem to be a little obsessed with weighing myself and questioning the number each and every time...I need to realize that the changes I am making are good ones and they will pay off (even if it takes some time)

Why am I not burning calories?
So, I go to the gym almost daily, and typically do 30 mins on the elliptical and 30 minutes on the tread mill or the bike. I push hard, make myself sweat! I enter my age and weight on the machines to measure the calories I burn, and at the end of an hour according to the machines I have only burnt around 300 calories…

Holy Energy Batman!
Wow! I am blown away! I have only had my diet overhauled for about a week now, and I can't believe how much energy I have! I am running up and down the stairs instead of moping! I am even finding it easier to wake up in the morning! Absolutely amazing what the RIGHT foods can do for you. I am eating so much less, but the…

Low Calorie Meals
So far so good with eating better :) I am having a hard time coming up with quick, healthy lunch ideas. I like to stay away from microwaveable meals, but need something to keep my tummy happy until snack and dinner time. Any ideas?

Buddy?
Hi there! I am a 23 year old mother to a beautiful 15 month old son and wife to my wonderful husband! I have never been 'tiny' but have always been healthy and comfortable with my body - I was 170 lbs before getting pregnant, and was ok with that. Since having my son and spending the last 15 months being a mommy, I have…
