Cookies are my weakness- help!
I need a personal Terry Crews to slap cookies out of my hand. My daughter makes the best cookies of all types. They are an absolute weakness of mine. Anyway, I’m finding it more of a challenge to shed weight. I got spooked by What the Health and went sorta plant-based the next day. Well, I more of a vegetarian I guess.…

60 Pounds Down - Finished My First Half Marathon (Pic)
What a difference a year makes. I came to Syracuse, NY overweight, out of shape, and eating poorly. Decided to do something about my weight in February of 2013. I used MFP religiously up until summer of 2013...go a little slack after a couple of business trips in July. I still eat far better than I did prior to February…

My 100th Day Results (Pic)
Greetings, I started my weight loss journey in late February and added MFP in early March. I still have a few more pounds until I reach my goal weight. I haven't measured my BMI, but according to weight, I'm still "obese". I'm not sure how large the photo will be. This is my first message board photo post. My formula for…

From April to August to Almost Abs (4As...progress pic)
I've been really guilty of not logging lately. I hit 150 consecutive days and then I went on a business trip in late July.

Now I'm trying to slowly get back into MFP.…

It's nearly impossible!
Just had breakfast and I'm already 11g over my recommended sugar intake and I'm halfway there on sodium. Now I admit, 2 slices of regular pork bacon wasn't a good choice, but thankfully, that's the last of the pack. I'll be getting turkey bacon today. Breakfast: - 6 oz of OJ - 2 slices of bacon - 4 egg whites - 1 pancake…

Just Over 1 Week & 6 Down
I'm extremely excited about MFP. At my heaviest, I was 291 lbs on a 6'2" frame. People always complimented me by saying, "You're tall and you wear it well." Honestly, I felt horrible. I started looking at my wedding photos from 10 years ago, where I was a lean 226 lbs. I want to feel that way again. Started an exercise and…
