    Thanks so much for your words of wisdom. Great idea on going to 'big losers' for ideas on what to eat. It makes sense but I'd never considered it.

    congratulations as well on your loss, you look great, but most importantly, you look healhy and happy........

    I am getting there too, I look at my progress if I fail on some days.............I will say that since I started I go to the gym, thats important ,in the morning which kinda dictates my day.........I feel more powerful after working out and less tempted during the days

    I know how long it takes me to lose 400 cals, so I dont cave in.........most of the time, lol

    Again, you look great and you look healthy............Great Job

    151 lbs lost and 1 year on MFP!

    • Food secret: When I started MFP, I didn’t know what to eat. I mean, I knew not a lot of fat, blah blah, right? But I really didn’t know what to eat, so I went on success stories in the community and looked for everyone who had lost 100 lbs or over and asked to be their friends. Then I looked back at their diaries and saw what they had been eating and what their stats were, like protein, sugar, carbs, etc. I then tried to replicate the stats by using foods that they were but only the ones I liked. So if someone was eating bulger or spinach and I didn’t like that, I would seek out something else that others were eating that made my numbers come out good.

    You sir, are a freakin' genius! Who would have thought that common sense had so much to do with weight loss?

    Congratulations!!!!

    You are insipring. My ultimate goal is 150+lbs, but I can't even think of it like that. I'm breaking it down into achievable chunks.

    Your advice is FANTASTIC and you really look SO happy and just amazing. My husband's brother is about your size before so I know how painful it is to be that big. You are quite the inspiration! Congratulations!!!
