From a (tight) size 18 to a size 8! 100 Pounds Down
At my highest I was 244 pounds. I can't even blame it on pregnancy because I was so overweight before I had kids. But after my second baby I managed to lose almost 100 pounds. BUT just gained it all back when I got pregnant with my third baby. Then I struggled hard to lose the weight. Finally I found what worked for me and…

One year, 95 pounds and a new hip
I'm not sure how I even did it to tell you the truth. It felt like I was at war with myself almost every day. I just wanted to mindlessly eat to take away my worries, or boredom, especially at night, but reality had set in. I needed a hip replacement and they wouldn't do it because of my weight. The doctor's exact words…

Last 5 pounds
For the first time in my life I actually shed the last 5 vanity pounds. It turns out at that point you have to monitor and weigh every single bit of food, condiment, etc. because you can only create a very small deficit a day. It’s exciting to see it’s doable, but honestly I don’t think it’s sustainable or worth it. I’m…

How exercised made me love myself
Always hated the way I looked always complained about how fat I look but never did anything but then I lost 11kgs in 6 months. Though sometimes I felt like I should give up as it takes time and patience but once you start seeing the results you yourself will stop eating food that’s unhealthy for you.

865 days of successes and failures
Today marks 865 days of logging into MFP. To say this site has changed my life would be an understatement. At my best, I’d lost about 60 pounds. I slowly let 18 creep back on and maintained there for about 10 months. I’ve recently lost 10, and am back to lose the last 20-25. Today I was able to get back into my “little…

My Journey so far
Moved down to Louisiana in Oct. 2016 after being away for most of my adult life. Everyone was happy to see me. People were inviting me to go hang out and go eat somewhere almost daily. So what did I do? I ate, drank and was very merry daily. Okay, after all that my weight balloned up to 400 lbs. I was out of control. But…

Who likes data? I know I do! (CICO Works)
I would like to start this off by saying I am a huge fan of data, the more data the better. So when I joined MFP a couple months ago I was super excited to learn about the reports feature.
