    Just what I needed on my 4th day of using MFP and counting calories! I'm glad you got out of your comfort zone and shared!

    That's great to hear Julie! Today would be "Day 7" and I hope you're still going strong! I'm (now) glad too that I left my comfort zone! What an incredible response!!!

    I'm getting married in less than 10 months and I'm having absolute panic attacks that I won't lose the weight I want in time. It makes me want to give up sometimes. This was such an inspiration! Good for you! Love seeing people achieve their goals and be the best, healthiest version of themselves.

    Thanks Akdz12! Incredible feats can be achieved in 10 months! I understand all too well how anxiety/panic can play a huge factor in limiting the ability to achieve goals. Take it one day at a time and do the best you can. Good habits will form, progress will be made, the panic will be gone, and the only anxiety you'll experience is finding a last minute seamstress to "take-in" your wedding dress!

    That's great congratulations your persistence paid off. I'm trying to lose 60lbs the motivation from MFP has been encouraging

    Thank so much Clin71funyika! Your own goal is very achievable and there are countless fabulous success stories on MFP just like mine, and just like your story-to-be! No work required... just dedication! My very best wishes to you!

    Great job! Be proud

    "Proud" isn't my favourite self-descriptive word but thank you so much KBM!
