Jan 2016- July 2017
I've been working on getting healthier since January 2016. I started by cutting out cokes and lost 20 lbs from January- May 2016. In May I joined planet fitness. I walk all the time. I've added yoga, weights and anything else someone suggests. I used to live a life of saying no and now I'm trying to embrace any challenges…

Watermark your pics!
So I found out that one of my friends who lost a ton of weight had her before and afters taken by a lady selling ketones or other garbage. Since all weight loss supplements are gimmicks this is the only way these animals can get picture testimonials... don't let your hard work help someone scam others out of money and…

Anyone 182lb and 5'6ish?? Could you show me a picture of yourself?!!
I ask because I am now 182lb. I've lost 60lbs. But I feel the same as I did 2 years ago! I mean I can see some changes! But in my mind, I'm still the same. I suppose you could say I lack confidence quite badly. I didn't take any before pictures and I avoid pictures now too. I keep googling 182lb woman but it brings up all…

NSV - pushups and strength
I actually weight 10 pounds more than the 2013 pic and 30 pounds more than the 2014. But back then I could barely do 15 pushups, and now I can regularly do over 30. I guess my point is that it's not always about the scale, or even how you look. 2013 (174lbs) 2014 (154lbs) 2017 (180lbs)

THREE PANT SIZES SMALLER!
I just want to say, I bought jeans THREE sizes smaller today. I got all teary-eyed in the dressing room. I haven't been this size for around 8 years. My husband has been losing with me, and actually felt guilty getting smaller jeans, until I convinced him. THEN, leaving the store, we saw an old friend. I bragged about how…

So excited
Just went to dinner with the family. So Prius of myself as I could have totally pigged out as it was a Buffett but started with a salad to file me. 1 small slice of pizza and 2 nibbles of chocolate cake!!!! Still have point and only used 500 calories! Hard but felt so good!

Laughing off an *kitten* that called me "fatty"!
I don't normally start these discussion boards, but it's been part of my journey this week and I've decided to share. Last week during a game, the goalie on the team my boyfriend's hockey team was playing against heard me laugh after he screamed "*kitten* you, ref" after a particularly sexy snipe (that's a really good…

I started my journey on December 27, 2015. And finally hit my 100 pound loss in April 2017. I still have 15-20 more pounds I would like to lose and even though I am only losing about a pound a month now I couldn't be happier with my success so far! Thanks MFP for helping me through my journey!!

Just wandering
I'm trying to understand really how this works. So as long as we keep the amount of calories we are alloted we should lose weight? I've heard so many conflicting arguments over which is the right way to eat. Some say just count the calories doesn't matter which way you eat. I've heard some say don't count calories count…
