Hey everyone-- I'm new to this page, it's been about 2 weeks... over the last year and a half I've dropped roughly 85 lbs... looking to drop another 30 using this tool... I am hoping to find some other people who actually use this website, and connect with others.... and want to encourage one another. I aim to live my life for God-- and believe that all things can be done through Christ!

    Great progress!

    Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21 nkjv

    This seems exactly like the post I am trying to think of writing. Losing weight is always a trial for me because I also feel that I have been blessed in other areas of life and even though I am overweight, it could be worse. I'd love for you to add me!

    you can add me! there are also a couple of groups here that are geared for christians... they're not as active as aome, but when we post something on the open forums! you should see the boxing gloves come out!!! there was a forum that asked what you couldn't live without and I said The Word Of God! and that caused a long discussion! lol!!!!

    At least our presence is known!!! :) He did say He came not to bring peace, but a dividing rod! :) Thank God we have His peace inside us!!!

    Great loss. I have been on for a few months and have lost 54 so far with about 35 of that being with MFP. I think you will like the site. A teacher I work with got me started here and it has been a great way to motivate each other. Also working to make my faith life much more of a priority as well. Please feel free to frend me. Gloria

    We would all be in much better shape physically if we would only eat what God put on earth for us - stay away from the processed stuff.
