    in would you obey the person above you ? Comment by Myrnlvr December 2016
  • It sounds like you already have given it a lot of thought and have a pretty solid plan. The only thing I would suggest is water, water, and more water. Especially before sitting down to the delicious meals. And don't sit down to them too ravenous (have an apple or something before you head to the burger joint) so you can…
    in Newbie Needs Help: First Time Eating Out/Company Comment by Myrnlvr December 2016
  • I am 5'3 SW- 180 lbs GW- 120 lbs CW- 116 lbs I won't compete with you, but feel free to add me and I'll try to encourage you :smile: It didn't happen overnight, but you didn't gain it overnight either (from August 2014- May 2015 got to 125 and stuck, but was pretty happy. Just lost the most recent weight since Sept. 2016).…

  • As silly as this sounds, when I started I had to remind myself that if I wanted that bad-for-me food I could always have it tomorrow. It wasn't going anywhere (as if anyone is going to stop making deep fried California rolls!). Tomorrow began turning into next week, and when the scale kept dropping it was easier to resist.…

    in whats your weakness food? Comment by Myrnlvr November 2016
  • I hit goal! +6 lbs, down to 114 from 180. And I'm not sure I ever will be happy with my weight, so I'm trying to just be happy regardless of it :smile:
    in will you ever be happy with your weight? what is your ultimate goal weight? Comment by Myrnlvr November 2016
  • I'd had a history of chronic back pain, but one day I woke up and could barely walk. So, I started. Small and slow, but little by little I got (almost) to my goal, after about 8 months, and stabilized. Every month or two I would relate my loss to something real in my life (my dog, both my dogs,...). When I lost more than…

    in PHOTO ONLY SUCCESS STORIES! Comment by Myrnlvr November 2016
  • What kind of pain do you have? I know it was already mentioned, but if at all possible try swimming. Even if that just means holding a flutter board and stretching out at first, add in some kick as you can or walk a lazy river. I have severe lower back pain (awaiting surgery) and I feel best when I am in the water, to this…
    in I need advice on many issues Comment by Myrnlvr June 2015
  • I went from about 2L a day of diet coke to an odd one here and there, and I find I enjoy it more when I have it but I am also getting way more water now that I have cut it out. I'd like to tell you that it made me lose 30 pounds, as I cut it out about 20 pounds into my weight loss, but there are so many other factors…

  • I fit this category for a few more months, provided OP meant inclusive? 30 here, looking to expand my circle as my motivation is... Waning.
    in Age 23-30 Comment by Myrnlvr May 2015
  • My starting stats were 180, 5'3, wearing size 14. After 9 months, I am down to 127, still 5'3, and I'm generally wearing a size 28 jeans. The pair I bought that fit the best? Size 4! I know they are a large fitting size 4, because I'm mostly a 6, but I couldn't believe the difference from a 14 to a 4. I have had to give…
    in Curious 5'4 Comment by Myrnlvr May 2015
  • Hi all! I'm Emily, just turned 30 and I suffer from spondylolisthesis and bulging discs. I am currently awaiting surgery, but my fifty pounds of weight loss (so far, working on ten more) was initiated by me no longer being able to work due to the pain and inability to walk. For me, water is the way to go. The only real…
