From almost 300 to under 200 lbs, still needing support - WHY?

Dianedoessmiles1

I started my weight loss back in 2010. I am so glad I did!! Fast forward to 2025. I had weighed almost 300 lbs, and now under 200 lbs.

I didn't do this on my own; like many of us, I needed support. I found the 5% Challenge on a different site, but it closed in 202,1 and we relocated here on MFP!!

WHY, after 15 years, am I still on a "diet" Site? Because losing weight after you learn the basics and figure it out for yourself (I needed help with that!), maintaining it is even harder.

Are you looking for support as I have?
