    I was over weight and tried so many things. Different things work for different people and I was lucky enough to find one that worked for me. I lost 18 pounds in one month without much exercise and it's been a life changer. I'm a little embarrased to post my before and after photos here but if anyone actually cares to hear what I've been doing then I'd be happy to help in any way. Just shoot me an email at secretosdelara@gmail.com and I'll show you my before and after photos, and tell you about how things are going for me with the stuff I've tried. I wish someone would have helped me out when I was struggling to find a solution so if I can help you then it would make my day

    There is a lot of good advice here. I've just joined too with 160 pounds to go. The encouragement found through the community just in three days has been incredible ... I've joined a couple of groups like the one for 300+. Feel we've done something solid! My encouragement to you and others on this journey and if you'd like please add me as a friend too!

    Thanks,
    Ann

    You can totally do this! My #1 tip is to commit to the process and log in/log your food everyday. Plan your meals/day to make sure you can have a good balance of healthy foods and foods you enjoy. Eat enough so you don't feel deprived.

    Remember that it is a marathon, not a sprint. Don't be disheartened if your weight fluctuates. Just keep at it.

    You need to make changes you can live with forever, because I believe keeping the weight off is just as much work as losing it.

    It is possible and you can do it. Good Luck!

    I'm new here too! Looking for advice and support from any and all! I've been an emotional eater and yo-yo weight loser all my life! Good luck to all of you and my only advice would be to to break the one large goal into smaller ones if that works better for you..i see the big number and I panic--so little ones help for me!

    Hi nice to meet you :) This is a great site for encouragement and wisdom. So many people here have great things to share i have learned a lot :) The biggest things I can tell you are weigh everything, log everything you eat and never give up :) Remember just because you may have a bad meal do not make the next one a bad one too. Stand back up and keep moving forward :) You got this :)

    ^this person knows what she's talking about.

    Awesome stats!!!

    Support is something everyone needs and from the past i know this site rocks. It’s been a long time since i was on here so I’m coming back to get myself back on track. Feel free to add me as a friend i am always looking to have more friends. My goal is to lose about 50-60 pounds but that’s because i have already lost 43 pounds. I have been unable to work out due to a back injury for the past 3 months but have only gained back 5 pounds so that’s a positive thing and now i am able to slowly introduce exercising again and i am looking forward to continuing my journey. good luck to you and everyone else here. Add me as a friend :happy:
