Hi! I'm Gin

starting weight: 157

current weight: 140
goal weight: 130
quite often i lose gain lose gain..........most of it's due to illnesses that I have and when I get sick I get down and when I get down I eat to comfort myself. I've realized this is my problem just have to find better ways to deal with it.
that and I got down to only having 3 lbs to lose to reach my first goal and well got a little cocky I guess just let myself slide.
last week I gained i think 4 lbs due to fact i had medical procedure done, so I'm on a mission to lose that and the rest I have to go but vacation is in two weeks
so i will probably gain the 4/5 back that I lose but I'm prepared to deal with that when it happens one day at a time 5 lbs is much easier to get off than 20 just have to stick with it!0 -

Hey thanks for the Invite!
Quick blurb about me.
My name is Josh. I am Former Army, I was Air Assault Infantry, while Active i weighed 200 Lbs, I am 5'9" at the time my mile time was 5.5min I could bench 310 by set, meaning more than just one time. I could leg press closer to 480.
I left the Army two years ago.
Now I am still 5'9", but I weigh 265 lbs. I cant run a mile period.
So, I can relate to everyone here... I didn't just fall off the wagon, I fell off and it ran me over as it rolled on past!0 -

Name: Cara
Age: 30
Height: 5' 0"
Starting Weight: 190 was my highest.
Weight after losing: 127
Current Weight: 168ish
Goal Weight: 150 for short term goal, 120 long term.
I was 124 at 3 months pregnant with my first child, I'd like to get back there! It kills me that I was 3 pounds away.. and I got 'comfortable'. And it took me 2 years to get back on track. Which sucks.
Lovely to meet you all!0 -

Thank you for the invitation!
My name is Fox:happy:
I am a 55 year old woman
My current weight is 143 pounds
Goal weight125
In the last 15 years i fluctuated between 129 and 151
I tried different diets and water fasting
But every time the weight comes back. Hopefully, this time it will be different because this time it is going to be a SLOW process.
I am looking forward to reading other people's stories and advice.0 -

HI Ya'll Thanks for the invite!
Name: Darlene
Age: 55 years old
Height: 5'7
Starting Weight: 194 was my highest.
Weight after losing: 168 was my lowest (I felt really good about how I looked at this weight and my clothes fit fantastic)
Current Weight: 183
Goal Weight: Short term goal 180
Long term goal between 165-170
I lost most of the weight four yrs ago very quickly on one of the quick weight loss programs. I quickly learned that those programs (at least for me) are not easy to maintain. Not only were they very expensive but they didn't teach me how or what to eat. Once off the program and on my own I struggled and eventually gained the weight back plus a few pounds. Now older and wiser (I hope) I realize it has to be a lifestyle change. MFP has helped me so much since I joined in January. I'm down 13 lbs! I still struggle sometimes but I get back up and start again because this time it IS a lifestyle change.
Looking forward to the challenge and the VICTORY
P.S. My ticker shows the weight loss since joining MFP0 -
