    Thank you so much. I am now at 32 lbs, and while it feels surreal, it also becomes more of a 'forever thing' every day.

    Don't give up, you can do this. People just get busy! Reach out to others and don't worry if they are too busy to answer. It's a crazy busy world these days. Never feel alone. You are taking care of you. You have to love yourself and pamper yourself. Take care and say hi anytime!

    I am no longer alone here. I have made some friends. I have even founded a group for others like me "Determined Losers on a Mission."
    I am almost certain I will see a 40-pound weight loss by Christmas. I have been sticking to my plan with small adjustments (life happened) now.

    I am still going strong it's now day #105. Still gluten-free and sugar-free and dairy-free. I still enjoy fruits and not candy. I learned to read labels and I get excited about new recipes. Still no diet, just a lifestyle change.
    In January I will be under 300 pounds and I can't wait to see a number that will start with a "2".

    Start weight 9/5 348 lbs
    Last known weight 313 lbs (Monday I believe)

    I even got a new scale, which showed a few pounds more than the old one and I didn't get discouraged.

    I wish everybody who has answered or silently cheered for me a very Merry Christmas and a healthy New Year.

    ❤️Congrats! Since MFP changed how the community interacts, it’s extremely challenging to ‘feel’ any kind of support. But if there’s a will, there’s a way. Your post caught my attention and I thought I’d add my two cents in. 😉
