This is my first attempt at a group support in weight loss. I have lost weight before, only to gain it back. I am an emotional eater, no doubt. Thing is, I have a very active job with ED and ID kiddos that I love AND very arthritic knees. I know that if I loose 40 lbs, the knees will feel much better. Ugh. I'm not sure I…
Hi there! I joined over 60 days ago and have lost about 10 lbs...for the first time in several years while actually EATING FOOD. I did a 6-day "Joe's" Juice Fast the first of the New Year and lost 12...gained some back when I started eating again. But this time, the 1200-calorie thing I've chosen is working! Thing…
I have been on MFB about 19 weeks. I said I was not going to buy any clothes until I had lost 40lbs. But none of my pants would stay up, even with my belt on the last loop. SO, I broke down and bought a few pants, AND A BELT. Size medium. I didn't think I would ever be a medium again. SO, I bought a belt. YAYYYY
I just recently heard the term "3F" which is apparently used by the medical establishment to describe a fat woman in her fifties. It's that common nowadays that we've been reduced to an acronym.

I have been with MFP for about a year and a half and have lost about 55 pounds, both before MFP and since I started here. I still have about 30 pounds to go. I do a low carb eating program for the most part. I am getting back to 30 to…
Recovering from gallbladder removal surgery and am scheduled for a full hysterectomy. Sigh... Looking for gentle exercises I can do after recovery. I plan on walking while healing but will need to start out slow on toning back up. Got any suggestions? THX
This group is supposed to have 159 members, yet no one seems to be out there... ARE you there?
I am looking for opinions on new undergarments. My friends and I stopped by a shop that advertised proper bra fittings. Out of the six members of the group two decided to be "fitted". The shop owner did a wonderful job with the fitting, both ladies in the group looked so much better in their new bras. It was amazing the…
Hi everyone. I joined mfp in august, but only really got serious about the program a little over a month ago. I actually gained 6 pounds in August till the time I decided to work the plan. Since then I have lost 10 pounds. I used to be on Medifast and boy did I lose the weight, but the program was not a lifestyle I could…
My name is Suzanne. I'll be 50 in one month. My goal is to lose 10 pounds. (I'm 5'2" 129 pounds). I've been struggling with this weight for about 5 years up and down but lately, it is not budging. I joined MFP in hopes that keeping track of my exercise and food will help me lose. I feel like I exercise and eat right but…
