The girls are shrinking....
Needing smaller jeans rocks. Needing smaller bras does NOT rock. Band size, yes. Cup size, no. I'm gonna miss my girls. :(

Up 5 lbs this week. What the heck???
So, last week I was sick and in bed the entire week. I hardly ate or drank anything. So, of course I lost about 5 pounds. Now, this week I'm better & back in the game. Exercised every day and ate my calorie goal, most days. I did go over one day by 500 calories or so. But I'm up 5 pounds! I realize last week's weight loss…

Finally, a NSV!
So last night I took my son to his soccer game and I saw one of the soccer moms who I hadn't seen in maybe a month or two. As I walked up to her she said "Wow, I didn't recognize you! You've lost a lot of weight, especially in your face! I seriously didn't recognize you!" Made me feel great! And although I still have a…

So, of course I was starving by the time I was finished. I fell into an old pattern and headed to the nearest drive thru. So now, 820 calories and most of my daily sodium…

Polar FT40 vs FitBit?
So I got a Polar FT40 for Christmas. It has been great to help me track my calories burned when I'm exercising, but it seems that is all it does. Or am I missing something? What does FitBit do that my Polar FT40 does not?

How do I change my carb/protein/fat (etc) goals?
I have seen several posts where someone mentions how they've set their goals to 40/30/30 or something. I only have the MFP defaults (I think) and I want my protein goal to be higher, and my carb goal to be less, and so on. How do I do this? ****Nevermind, I figured it out! I had to customize my goals. I did not want 55%…

Frustrated Lurker
I've been reading the forums for about a month now, and my frustration has caused me to "de-lurk" and I'm hoping I can get some people to view my diary and give some insight! And of course I love to add some friends! A little bit about me: (Just turned) 38 yr old mother of 3. Have been overweight since I had kids, but…
