A small win
Tonight was a success, and I just had to share. I usually struggle really hard with sticking to my plans when it comes to social gatherings.

90 pounds in 8 months with MFP (and a little pharma help)
Hi everyone. I wanted to share my success story as an inspiration to those just getting started.

I am a 61 year old male who had been between 250 and 260 pounds since at least 2007. I had never tried to…

Hurray! This is huge for me…
I made it to the end of a very stressful day during which I faced severe anxiety as I worked in the COVID unit. Made it to bedtime without having alcohol or binge eating to cope, and I still have calories to spare. This is pretty freaking fantastic for me.
