That's great progress, its a long road but worth it. You're doing awesome! Sent friend request!

I'm in with y'all!! About 5-3", sometimes 5-4" if I wanna tell people I'm.taller. ;) I'm currently around 161, lost approx 15lbs already. My goal is around 130. About 5 years ago, pre-surgeries & pre-weight gain, when I was 123-125, family & friends thought I looked too thin and unhealthy, even though I was very active and…

Awesome! I'd love to add more friends. Keep it up!!

The best habits I've learned & kept up with: Definitely a lot more water & tea, especially in mornings & evening time. Helps fill me up! Planning my meals ahead, snacks too! Switching up and rotating foods, not just stuck on several super-healthy foods, but a variety of yummy foods helps me. Logging every time I eat And…

Same as above -- halve your weight, drink that in ounces. If you're at 300lbs now, your goal would be 150oz. Although that's a lot if you're just getting started. Try for around 100oz to start. And yes, you get water from veggies n fruits, etc. I tend to include flavored waters and sometimes hot tea into my water count, as…

Second NO. Please don't reference Pop Sugar as valid and expect others to buy it. Just...no.

Some of the wording you usein your original post is concerning; that's why people are asking if you're seeing a therapist as well. You seem to have an unhealthy grasp on food & your body image. 1200 is the really the lowest you should go,period. If you're working out burning good calories, eat some of those back to help…

I'm also confused by the situation at this point, as it seems you are in need of medical intervention & care from appropriate doctors. They shouldn't be sending you home without some relief. Get yourself to the ER, bring your paperwork & your mother if possible (hopefully she can sit it & also hear Dr orders, and help…

Yep, I LOVE the La Croix water, flavors like grapefruit are great. I also enjoy seltzer and tonic water; add sliced fresh ginger or lime/mandarin/lemon, yum! Also black tea or English breakfast tea with splash of milk, delicious in the mornings. I also use the Mio and similar water flavorings, though many do have…

I was thinking the same thing. Get some exercise in, burn extra calories so you'll have more room in your calories and create a deficit. I've become a big fan of HIIT. With your having young children, it could be a quick way to burn max calories (like 15 minute high intensity work outs). These calories can partially be…

Some of my easiest go to breakfasts are make ahead.

Make ahead night before)) Hard boiled eggs (make…
