Thank you for the Awesome tips I truly appreciate them all and really needed to read this so I'm greatful for your post. It's so honest and relatable. Congrats on your progress of getting rid of the weight, I definitely don't want to lose weight and suddenly find it's back again... lol I want to get rid of 50 lbs and never see it again ; ) Do you have any updates on your progress?

Thanks for the nice words! I did an update post found here in September:

Thank you for all your tips!!! I will try the kids menu!! I have lost 45lbs using MFP app over the last two years and I didn't know this community existed. This is just what I needed to continue my progress! I only have 8 lbs to reach my ultimate goal of 135lbs!!!

Thank you everyone! And a big thanks to the person that recently read this post so that it became part of the newsfeed again- it helped me reflect as my journey was almost surreal. I can also validate that I still stick to what is listed here it truly is a lifestyle change and I’m here to tell everyone that once that shift truly occurs it will last - you can do it just stay the course!

Since this post I reached my goal- Sept. 2016
249lbs to 149lbs. Post found here:

I also made another post 6months later March 2017:

Today (Feb 2018) I am at 142 pounds.

I still weigh every Monday. I still log in daily. Maybe one day I’ll feel like I don’t have to log but for right now it keeps me focused- I think if it as no more bother than sending a text. It’s part of my lifestyle!

I share all of this not to brag but hopefully to encourage and inspire just as many many many posts on here did for me!! Feel free to send friend requests. I love my online community!
