  • Hello.

    My name is Ashley, I am 27, female, 5'7, I weight currently 200 pounds and this is my second attempt at losing weight.

    I guess I should tell you a little about myself.

    About a year ago, I was on track for losing weight. I got down to 195 pounds when for a very long time, I have been over 200 pounds. Both my mom and I were losing weight together and we were on track and both making progress.

    Then tragedy hit.

    Our 10 month year old poodle was run over by a school bus and the weight loss went down the drain. I went from 195 to my highest weight that I have ever been which was 220 pounds. I was so depressed that food became my escape and it made me feel better. So I ate until I reached 220 pounds and it wasn't until about 2 months ago where I could not take it anymore. I was starting to fit into XXL clothes and it really started to scare me because I have always been bigger, but never that big.

    So I took control and I started to workout more and eat better and I lost 20 pounds because of it.

    However, I find myself writing this after eating 4 rolls of Sushi, chocolate, and I just polished off 2 Apple Ales. Yesterday I went to the BIG E and I walked for 8 hours, but still didn't eat as healthy.

    I am starting to feel more bloated and heavier and I am afraid that I may have gained a pound or two.

    During the summer it was easy. I didn't have anything else in my life that I needed to do and I could concentrate on losing the weight. Now that school has started, working out and eating healthy is becoming harder and harder and I don't seem to know why.

    I don't know if its my mindset that I lost weight, so I can indulge more now or that my metabolism is higher, so I can eat more or what, but I know that I feel bigger and I am not liking the direction I am going.

    I know that its only a pound or two and its something I can burn off and keep going with my goal, but for some reason, I almost feel like giving up because I gained weight.

    I want to keep going and lose at least 30 more pounds, but it's become harder and harder and my eating is not as great.

    I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but I hoped that talking about it would help me in someway.

    Anyways, again, my name is Ashley and thank you for reading.

  • I am 24 and just started a long journey with weightloss!
  • 32 here :) started my journey to health in August of last year. Since then I've melted away 169 lbs! I didn't find out about MFP until about halfway through my journey and even then didn't begin using it heavily until about 2 weeks ago :) Would love to make friends! I am from northeast Ohio if that matters at all.

    22 year old here! First day using MFP and I'm liking the app so far! I've lost weight in the past but struggled with keeping it off. After a major weight gain over the last 2-3 years I'm determined to get it off so I'll have more energy and live a bit longer haha! Feel free to friend me, we're all in this together! :)

    26, Hello people!!
  • 28 & have caught the running bug (which can bring problems for a bigger-broader-football-type guy. Lost about 50lbs over this past summer (but not in the best way to be honest, it was due to stress/lack of eating from 24 hr summer job). Now trying to re-gain strength/speed and find the happy medium! Feel free to add! Best of luck to all!
