I joined MFP 8/5/11 at 300lbs, and lost 130 lbs using MFP and the Paleo diet. I deleted my account after I got near my goal weight because after a year and a half I was sick of the tracking. Well I gained ten lbs back because of over eating and poor food choices. So now I'm back. Determined to finally reach my goal of 160 lbs for a total of a 140 lbs weightloss. I need a few friends, cause MFP is always more interesting and fun when you have people to support you. I'm still on the paleo diet, but think different things work for different people! I want to be svelte for my summer vacation 7/21-7/25!

    I joined MFP before too... but didn't stay with it long enough to do much. I got tired of the tracking, tired of watching what I eat, .. tired of it all and quit. And now I have been back for more than a week and I am on my way to being where I want to be. 78 more lbs to go and I may decide when I get there that I want to go for some more. Time will tell.

    I am glad you are her and way to go dropping all that weight.
  • keep up the good work. sounds like you've a good commitment to it this time.

    I usually never continue with any work out coz I expect magical results ( human nature) I assume,
    But this time I have decided to stick around for a while and jot down everything! Joined a gym too!
    The only motivation in joining the gym is the steam room and sauna!
    I will need support not only do I have a weight problem to sort out but I have a nicotine habit to kick! :(
