Just wanted to share... thought someone could use the encouragement.
I feel like I have been on MFP FOREVER... I've tried tons of diets, programs, you name it...and always gained back- never making any REAL progress. It wasn't until I dumped the "programs" and focused on dealing with my emotional "baggage" that I started making real change!
Anyway, I'm down 59lbs today :) In 7 more pounds I will have met the goal I fqwt3us6m6k2.png
first set on MFP years ago. This feels like a really big deal to me. I'm kinda stoked!! I'm certainly not finished. When I reach that and do my long awaited and much deserved happy dance, I will set a new goal!

    Wow!! You look great and have made great progress. I'm with you about programs. I too lost and gained weight numerous times. MFP has been my answer. Down 35 pounds since January due to healthier eating (portion control) and walking. I still have about 20 pounds to my final goal. You are an inspiration helping me along the way. Hope I am one for you. MFP works when you work it :):)

    Great job, and so can relate until we get our minds wrapped around the issue of weight. The issue remains, and yes I too have been on way too many programs. Rejoined MFP early May 2018 and ;log everything, weigh everything, and check out the posts daily. And am now progressing down over 50 many more to go. But the inspiration to keep going is here on MFP. And you look great, and inspiring to keep going. Thanks for sharing.
