Starting over?
I am feeling very frustrated with myself lately. In December I had reached a wonderful low, and for some reason immediately gained a bit back; and have been on the rise since. I think that weight gain put me into a depression, and I'm still struggling a bit with that. I'm having such a hard time getting back into my good…

Following my own advice...
So last night I was feeling pretty good. My weekly weigh ins are Thursday mornings, and I was confident that I would finally hit my much anticipated goal of 159 (been wanting to be under 160, even by an ounce!). I thought I'd done okay for the week, other than the weekend (ugh!) So I was feeling good about it and actually…

I'm chopping it off!
Tomorrow my 2 girls and I are cutting our hair off and donating it to locks of love. We know what style the girls are getting, but I'm clueless for myself. If anyone has any ideas that would work for me, I would greatly appreciate the link! And I'm also coloring it strawberry blonde! YAY! I know this pic is horrible; I…

Woman Overboard!
That's what I feel like..... For a while I was on this wonderful ship! Where aboard I regularly practiced healthy eating and good exercise habits. I was doing pretty well, feeling motivated and very supported here at MFP. I have great friends and have always loved reading the boards for ideas, motivation and fun. Then, one…

Looking for a good bluetooth headset...
I've been reading reviews all night, and all of them are so contradictory! HELP!! :) I need a bluetooth headset for jogging, and I cannot stand earbuds, so I need a more traditional over the head and ear set. Any ideas?

Calling all NON morning people....
So, if you're a night owl like me, but have to get up early for work, kids, etc, how do you do it? I've never been a morning person (although, I admit, I'd like to be) and no matter how many days in a row I get up at 6:30 or earlier, my body does not seem to want to get used to it! I'm always dragging myself out of bed and…

My NSVs :))
Okay, so far I have noticed a few small things since I've made some major changes in my life. I'm only in my 6th week here, but I love it! I've been eating healthier, and just started an exercise routine, and so far have lost 7.5 pounds. But what I really love are my NSVs....so far they are... Less sweet cravings and more…

Needing suggestions please.....
I'm just starting out (okay, for the 100th time) and I'm ready to start a regular exercise program, other than walking occasionally. I am hoping to get some suggestions for a good (and affordable) workout DVD or 2. I used to work out at the gym regularly, but that's been some time ago. I no longer have a membership, and I…

bad knee
I have a bad knee: if I move wrong (which is easy to do) it dislocates. Along with that, it doesn't track smoothly. I've done some physical therapy for it, and I know the exercises that will help, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a good affordable knee brace that would help. I've tried a couple, but they have the…

Mood songs.....
Just curious, what songs do you all listen to for certain moods? For example, when I need a lift and encouragement, I love to listen to "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World. Or, when I'm kinda depressed, I listen to "Burning Bright" bye Shinedown.

Picky kids! Please help!
My husband and I love to try new recipes, and both of us are trying to lose weight. So, I'm looking for easy (I'm no chef) and healthy recipes. The only problem is, I have 2 girls who are fairly picky eaters. One will try new foods, but generally doesn't care for them, and the other has no desire to try anything new. I…

New to site and needing motivation!
Hi! My name is Tanya and I'm 33, a mother of 2, and I have been struggling with my weight since my first child was born 10 years ago. I need to lose about 60 - 70 pounds. I've done the research, I KNOW how to lose weight, it's just staying motivated that is my problem. Oh, and a lack of will power against sweets doesn't…
