From November to May, I lost only about 12 pounds with Weight Watchers. And then I discovered MFP, and entered a Biggest Loser challenge at work as of May 1st. Well, I am already down 7.2 (MFP is so much better than WW!) and today someone at work finally noticed!!!
It just felt so good to hear someones say "Woah, you've really lost a lot of weight, haven't you?"
So In total, I'm almost 20 pounds down. I hope to lose another 40 by October.

But the point is...

MFP is awesome!!! I have no friends yet so if any of you beautiful people would like to connect, get in touch with me! Your success stories are all so inspiring.

    Congrats! It always keeps me motivated when someone (besides my hubby) notices. Especially when I don't tell anyone that I am loosing weight. I am so happy for you.

    You can add me as a friend. I like helping people stay motivated and to have being motivated myself.

    That's fantastic! Keep it up! I'm only down about 8lbs so I'm just getting started but I'm not going to quit. I did WW too and it was okay, I just was wayyy too busy to track the calories, fat, fiber, total points, etc. MFP is SO much better and I LOVE the app on the iphone! It really has kept me mindful in terms of how MUCH I was eating before doing this. I lost about 50lbs on Atkins about 12 years ago but that diet is SO difficult. I love my carbs! Now I'm just eating "smarter" and the good carbs, etc. Which I know Atkins works like that too when you slowly add the carbs back but oh man, is that first Phase a challenge! I like the fact that I can order something smart from a fast food place with my husband and kids and it doesn't ruin my day. Add me so we can encourage and motivate one another! :)

    Oh and glad you had someone notice! Doesn't it feel so good? I haven't gotten to that point quite yet but I WILL! :)
