in Introduce Yourself
Looking for friends to help hold me accountable. I have more than 50 pounds to lose and the doctor still wouldn't be happy but I would feel better. I love pizza, fast food, chocolate and favourite is chips and dip. So please please add me or comment to help knock those foods out of my hand.

    Hi, you can add me! I'm trying to loose 35 and I've already lost 7.7lbs just from cutting out soda, fast food, sweets, very little to no dairy, portion control, and drinking a gallon of water a day! It has not been easy but its completely possible if you put your mind to it! I 100% understand the struggle of pizza and ice cream because those are my favorite two things to eat! I cheated my diet one day because I was having pizza withdrawals :p haha

    I have lost 40 pounds and MYFITNESSPAL coupled with my nutritionist are the keys. Document in MFP every day is very important for me. It helps to know every bite I put in my mouth. It has taken me since last February and I am half way to my goal. DON'T GIVE UP!!!!!!!! It is worth it.

    @SexySlimRN I am determined to give it up. It scares me what my body is going through giving up pop and junk food. It's only been three days

    @modestashegets I think the doctor would like me to lose 70 but I think I'd at least be comfortable at 50. I need lots of tips and tricks

    The good part of MFP is that eventually you'll learn how to fit all your favorite foods into your calories allowance. Probably not as often as you did until now. But you don't have eliminate any single food item completely. If you're honest with your logging, weigh solids and measure liquids, you'll lose the weight. Also, if you have questions, ask. MFP is a great community and most of us here really want to help each other out.
    Good luck!

    Well it's been three months for me. Stop two weeks for Christmas break, just starting back up today. I can explain to you how good I felt when I got pass those first 5 days. I felt wonderful. These last few weeks during the holidays, I was eating everything but I was miserable. I lived that life for 8 or 9 years, tired of that feeling that way. I love junk, but junk has made me so insucure with myself, that and 3 kids has destroyed my body totally. So I am fighting to get my life back. It's not worth it. Some people are happy overweight, and that's great, but if you are not, you have to push yourself, because those feeling will only get worst. Trust me, if I can do it, you can too.

    Started in August, and I'm down 35pounds. I feel like my brain is getting rewired to make better choices. The key is tracking your food, and not letting yourself get too hungry. I'm 7# away from goal, so excited! Food is my drug, and I believe if I want to stay in control, I will be tracking forever. I am worth that much effort, and so are you:)
