I did it. I made it. I am at my goal weight. I started in May 2018 on MFP for the 3rd time. The third time was the charm because now in Feb, 2021 i have lost 100 pounds. Below are my before and after pictures. To anyone who read this who is struggling you can do it. I have had highs and lows and plateaus along the way. But I weighed and measured all my food, drank a lot of water, used the diary and exercised. So it can be done. Hang in there you can do it. Now I just have to maintain which I know won't be easy but I am going to put the same effort into maintaining that I did to losing.

Best advice I ever read on MFP (and there’s been a raft of good advice here!):
Treat maintenance like you still have five pounds to lose.
I like that, I will keep that in mind as I start this new chapter. I was initially thinking of losing an extra 5 pounds as a cushion. Thanks for sharing that valuable piece of advice. Have a great day.
