230 lbs Down in 20 months!!-And still going STRONG!
Where do I start? A lifetime of Morbid Obesity- 2 failed Baratric Surgeries (1990 Stomach Stapling- 2014 Roux-En-Y). Then 23 months ago I knew my life was going to change as my now Ex asked for a Divorce. A switch snapped in my head- And I am on a Mission-- to be ME--and be content. When people tell you you can't-- YOU…

My Little Success
I’ve previously lost 50 (ish) pounds on MFP. Fast forward, I gained about 20 back, losing/gaining same 10 for years. In the last 9 weeks I buttoned things down, hit a heavy lifting program again and have been pretty vigilant about tracking. I’ve also granted myself quite a bit of grace. But, even with that, I’ve been able…

90lbs down as of today. A great birthday gift to myself.
I seem to be the opposite of everyone else here, and put weight ON during the lockdowns, I put on almost everything I had lost and was maintaining for three years. The freakishly fast weight gain almost killed me, I found myself in the hospital struggling to breath because I had gotten so fat so fast. I'm still 30lbs away…

My story of sweet revenge (pics)
I lied, my story really isn't about revenge. But, it started out that way. In 2010 my life hit a very low point. I weighed 217 pounds and my husband wanted a divorce. The entire four year marriage had been rough, so divorce was a bit of a relief. The downside of that was having to move across the country and back into my…

Thank you myfitnesspal
On December 21st I’ll celebrate 12 years of Alcohol sobriety. At that time in 2009, in an attempt to find new activities to fill my time, my housemates invited me to come to the the gym where they were members. I signed up after my second visit and progressed incrementally from 30 minutes, to 45, an hour etc until finally…

4 stones in 15 weeks
Hello all hopefully this might inspire someone. I decided enough was enough and take control of my life. A blood test revealed high cholesterol so I had to take drastic action. I managed to lose 4 stones in 15 weeks (247 lbs to 191lbs). This is what worked for me: - Calorie Counting. Aiming for 1400ish calories per day.…

Lost 85 lbs!
Hi, I'm new here and here's my story. Because of Covid-19 I, like many, started working from home. Instead of snacking at the office all day and stopping for a pre-dinner meal on the way home, I wasn't able to do all that! My wife does a lot of the food shopping and she doesn't eat much "junk" food so we don't have it in…

Fit After Menopause (With Pics)
Ladies, I'm hitting menopause and I'm down about it because it just seems harder to stay fit! I'm noticing that I'm carrying 15 or 20 extra pounds and my waist is a little bigger than it's ever been. I am getting my diet and exercise strategy back in line, but it's hard to feel motivated. I'm worried that it's just not…

I want to hear success stories from fit cancer survivors!
Hello! I'm just looking for a little inspiration! When I was still an infant, my body had a tumor. The doctors removed the tumor in surgery along with half my liver, half my pancreas, and a kidney. I also went through a year of chemo. So with all that trauma to my body at a young age, my metabolism and stamina wasn't much…

A year of keto (100+ pound weight loss) pic heavy
It's been a full year since I started my weight loss/fitness/ overall health journey and consistently tracking my calories and macros in MFP. It definitely hasn't been a straight arrow and I've binged more days than I'd like to admit and I've slacked more than I should have but I've never given up. One day at a time.…

Final Destination: 202 pounds lost
After 16 months I have finally reach my original goal of weighing 13 stone (today I am 12 stone and 12 pounds). It's been hard in many ways because I wasn't just dealing with weight loss at the time. I was seeing a therapist and trying to regain employment, battling depression and adapting to an entirely new surrounding. I…

Hit 100lb weight loss goal!
I joined MFP years ago, but I got serious about my weight loss in January, 2020 after suffering from pulmonary embolisms and being diagnosed with a heart defect. After several weigh loss failures, I decided to make a plan I felt was feasible for me. I have stuck to a primarily plant-based diet, reset my calories weekly,…

Then last year I got a membership for Vida through Blue Cross. (Ends August 31). I am only 5'0. For a long time my BMI was 34. Last year when I joined Vida my…
