I started losing weight almost 1year ago. I weighed/weigh myself every Thursday NO MATTER WHAT. I've learned to "own" my weight. I think this is so important to success. If I knew I hadn't eaten the best the past week & gained weight I would own that weight gain & say "I didn't eat the best so I'm ok owning it" then move on. No guilt no depression no giving up. It's a life change. Not a race. I've had really hard weeks. I've had good weeks. Never give up on yourself. YOU CAN DO THIS!!! In the last yr I've lost 50 pounds. Im happy where I am. If I lose more awesome. But i love me for me ya know?!?! Good luck to all of you. Take the good & not so great. Learn about yourself. You'll be surprised at what you learn about yourself!

    I like your posting. You look great~! You are a mature adult with a mature attitude. Much much younger people need to read a posting like this . You have to have self love .... and sometimes that is difficult. Sometimes family members and friends are not supportive of the physical change and the improvement of appearance. They are jealous, feel insecure and think you are going to drop them, or they like the suffering you felt by being fat................and I'm not kidding. So... you pull yourself up by the bootstraps.... do the best you can and over time, you will see an improvement. If it means just walking every day.... or cutting out one or two slices of bread at first.... do it.... because life is good... and you are worth it.

    I agree! Your maturity and true sense of reality really speaks to me. No muss. No fuss. LOVE that. :)
