RE: Introduce yourself!

Hi I'm Charlene, 19 years old. 5'5'' and 130 lbs..I would say my weight is a healthy one for my height but I would like to get down to 115 (in a healthy way). I like to workout, everyday, and I eat 5-6 very small meals a day. I've lost 14 lbs this summer while maintaining my strength and stamina, so I'd love some motivation to continue and I'm here to help as well.

RE: Introduce yourself!

Hi Im new to this site. I figured I needed something more then a food journal to keep me accountable! I am turning 23 soon and really would like to start the next year of my life in a healthier place. I am 5'5 and I weigh 153...(luckily I tend to carry my weight well!) Last summer I weighed 140 and was in the best shape since I was a freshman in highschool! I want to get back to that place mostly for myself, but also for my son,my husband...and lastly for a boob job! Motherhood really does a number on them! My goal is to finally stop yo-yoing and stick with a healthy lifestyle for life!

RE: Introduce yourself!

Hi, just call me Carolyn.

My weight loss goal is 100 lbs, which I am determined to do by February 2010. I used to be 233 lbs, but I lost 9 pounds and am continuing my journey in giving myself a complete lifestyle overhaul.

So far, I'm into kickboxing, cardio, yoga, tai chi, bicycling, power walking, and I hope to get good at pilates (the hardest).

I am also an aspiring writer who loves arts and crafts, and a future job awaits me at the Walt Disney World Resort.

My future husband also awaits me in Central Florida, and we'll live in Celebration very soon, right now I'm saving money in an account for property there.

I come humbly asking for support and kind people in my journey.

RE: Introduce yourself!

Hey! My name is Christina. I'm 21 and well... a month ago I was 290 whooping pounds. Sad I know. I've never been skinny. Was told at a very young age to finish my plate by my father. I'm a nervous eater and Use food as a comfort zone. Well times have changed! I have lost around 18 pounds in a month. Realized nothing is going to change if I don't take the time and put myself first every day and change it. I drink 2 liters of water a day, get 6-8 hours of sleep nightly, work out at the gym 6 days a week. All which consist of running or hour long cardio classes. Weight training I do every other day. And I'm just here to chat with people who share the desire to get healthy and like themselves just as much as I do. My goal is to lose 100 more pounds by July 2010. I know I can do it! :)

RE: Introduce yourself!

Hi. My name is Hillary. I just started using diet.com this last week. I am so excited. I am 29 yours old. Mom of three hyper boys. I am 5'6" and 250lbs. I could use to lose about a hundred of that. I need to get healthier. I need to up my energy level. I want to stop having to look in the SPECIAL PLUS SIZE section of every store I go into trying to fine 20/22 TALL size jeans! That is probably what makes me the maddest. That and how I just plain need to keep up with my boys. My goal is to be able to go up a flight of stairs and NOT get winded.

Hi everyone, I'm Vee, I'm 31, and fast approaching the heighest weight I've ever been - I was 156lbs 2 yrs ago, and managed to lose 20lbs, but meeting the perfect guy just totally sunk me into comfort mode, and we've both packed on weight since we met! Trying to get slim and trim during the challenging holiday season is going to be hard, but I truly want this, it's great to be a part of such a supportive site!

RE: Introduce yourself!

Katie, don't fret, just set your food aside from theirs or ask thime to bake, broil, or grill your food seperately. Better yet, just show your family by example and soon you will notice a change in every one.

RE: Introduce yourself!

Hi, My name is Melissa, I joined this site a few years ago, and did well dieting when I used this support. It has been quite a long time since I have logged in now, and I am devastated to see I have gained 30+ pounds since that last log in. I am currently at 191, and at 5'5" I am really starting to feel uncomfortable with myself. I can't wait to move around a little more easily! I am ready to drop 40 pounds this year! Thanks!

RE: Introduce yourself!

To Cynthia- I think it is really important to log in on a daily basis to keep track of your meals and not lose focus on what your goals are. (I had a long stretch where I didn't log in, and gained 30 pounds.) Good luck on your weight loss journey!

RE: Anybody Up for an Inter- Group Challenge?

Challenge idea: Most lost weight in a month and no cheating i.e. diet pills. This must be done with determination and exercise & healthy eating. Everyone hast to post their weight-beginning and ending weight.... tell me if this sounds fesible.

RE: Busy Mom needs help!

Well, I don't have children myself, but I can give you some ideas that might help with your time crunch. Believe me, the easier the better for me, too! Sometimes I forget about the crockpot. It really makes life easier! I've seen a cookbook in stores for light crockpot recipes. I think it's called "Fix it and Forget it Crock Pot Recipes" or something like that. I've seen it at Sam's Club if you have one of those near you. I also like to marinate chicken breast in italian dressing overnight, or you can find some packages of seasoning that you just add olive oil, water, and vinegar to that only take 15 minutes to marinate. I usually grill or broil that and fix a can of green beans or corn and some brown rice (sometimes I throw in onions and peppers). Maybe you can fix mac 'n cheese for the kids if you don't think they'd like the brown rice, and give them BBQ or other dipping sauces for the chicken. You can even tweak some traditional recipes to make them healthier. For instance, I love whole wheat pasta with Ragu basil and tomato light spaghetti sauce and a salad. Honestly, the whole wheat pasta tastes about the same as regular by the time you put the sauce on it, plus it doesn't take very long to fix. Just some suggestions. I hope this helps!

It's pretty late at the moment for me, but I will get back to you tomorrow! I am a full time working mom also. My son is a little over 2 now. I have to be at work at 7am and I get home around 5pm each day. I know where you are coming from! I'll see what I can find for you :D
