We all know clothes are expensive..........
Hi Everyone! So, we all know how expensive losing weight can actually cost us! Between food expenses, since nothing healthy can be inexpensive and buying clothes every month or two, I personally have spent a lot of money over the last two years on these things. As encouraging as it is to put a pair of pants or a shirt on…

My journey....

My starting weight was 255 pounds (1st pic you see) most embarrassing picture I have of myself. I promise myself everyday I will NOT go back to…

HELLO medium shirts!
So, I finally gave in and went shopping last weekend because all of my work clothes were starting to resemble trash bags on my body! I tried on several pants and shirts while I was at JCPenneys. I found myself fitting into size 12 slack pants (which I have never in my life fit that size) and I also can fit into some styles…

NSV and update
Good morning! I sure had a great a morning today. I decided to weigh-in this morning......I've lost a total of 81 pounds and I am now less than 20 pounds away from my goal weight of 155. That's exciting for me! I've been working over 2 years to get here. Between weight watchers, a 6 month plateau that discouraged me from…

Snacking...
I'm having a hard time with this. I've always been a big snack eater, but now it's been cut down to moderation. Since I started using MFP, I have been doing great and am up to a total weight loss of 77 pounds (including what I lost before starting here). I've noticed over the last couple months that the snacking is slowly…

Been here awhile but...
Good Morning! So, i've been on here for awhile now, since about april. I've lost an additional 20 pounds on top of the 57 i've lost doing weight watchers. I needed this change in order to get over my plateau! While I have been here i've meant some amazing people and the success they have had is truly what keeps me going!…

Polar FT4..does anyone have one?
I bought one about a month ago and love it. However, when I do water aerobics the transmitter doesn't seem to work. I'm in a shallow pool about 5 feet or less. The information says its water proof but every time I try to use it, it won't keep track of my heart rate or cals burned. Any suggestions?

How often do you weigh in?
I've been weighing every week. Sometimes I check in the middle of the week, but record at the end. Is that good or bad? How often do you weigh in?

Figuring out calories burned...
I'm posting this bc I honestly can't afford to get a HRM right now to assist me. I'm possibly changing gyms from Planet Fitness to Golds gym, where they have multiple classes I can take. I need a change in my workout style. However, without a heart rate monitor, I have no idea even where to start to figure out…

Heart rate monitors
Hello Everyone! I having been working out 3 to 4 times a week at the Planet Fitness in my area. I absolutely LOVE going there. I know the machines keep a calorie count, but I am unsure how accurate they are. So I am interested in purchasing a Heart rate monitor that will help keep track of calories. Knowing NOTHING about…

Hello!
Hi everyone! My name is Nicole and I am 23 years old. I have been using the weight watchers point system for over a year in a half now. I have had great success and lost 55 pounds! However, I have hit a dead end and can't seem to lose anymore, although I have been able to maintain. My goal is to lose at least another 50…
