    2 years seems long but the last 2 years went by so fast!! MFP is a great tool for awareness. I also like The Psychology of Eating. It's online, YouTube, or podcast. Very insightful stuff. Keep on, one day at a time.

    Congratulations on the 20lbs!! You are doing awesome.

    I started with 124 lbs to lose. I'm a little over half way there. The biggest thing that has helped me is setting several smaller, short term goals to reach for. It kept me from getting overwhelmed.

    Feel free to add me as a friend if you would like.

    Good job. I started with 260 to lose (not a typo) and now have 160 to go. It seems so far away, but it gets closer every day.

    It goes by more quickly than you think. What really helped me was realizing the time would pass regardless, I could be lighter and fitter at the end of the time passing, or I could remain the same. I'm13.5 months in, 121 lbs down, and around 20 left. You can do this!
