  • You look amazing but even more importantly you sound like you are an amazing person. Your story hit home with me in so many ways. I have tried to make this change dozens of times and never succeeded. I also suffer from depression and anxiety, it so often stops me from living my life to it's fullest. I am inspired by your…
  • Hello, I am always looking for a friend to work with. My goal is to lose 20 pounds and then once I accomplish that I will set a new goal. I need to lose a lot more than your 35 but I have to start somewhere. I am 50 years old, work a stationary job and have no idea what I hope to weigh. I guess I will know that when I get…
  • I am having the same issue. I have been doing well and slowly losing, For two days I ate horribly, when I got on the scale this morning, I am up 5 pounds, in just 2 days! It is so hard to stay positive. Suggestions?
  • Hello and welcome, I have been here off and on for a year or so. My best friend lost 50 pounds last year by logging his food and making better choices. I was not so successful, I seem to have lost the same 10 pounds quite a few times. You are much younger than I am (I am 50) but sound as if you feel so very much like I…
  • Welcome. I have struggled with my weight for close to 15 years, I was the skinny kid in high school and then somewhere in my 30's it got out of control. I agree with Jenngitch, I am going to take it one day at a time. WE can do this.
  • Hello, I have lost the same 10 pounds more times than I can count. I have tried everything but then I get discouraged when I see others succeeding and I don't feel like I am losing enough. Then I give up. This time I have a different outlook. I am only going to worry about today. One day at a time and every day is a new…
  • Enjoy your vacation, you look wonderful and have worked hard for it.
  • I just purchased the book. I am a bit overwhelmed by the prospect of not even using artificial sugar but am planning to put together a menu of foods that I like and giving it a try. I stay within my calorie count every day but go over on sugar and am not losing weight consistently. How is it working for you?
  • I wish I could help but instead I will say that you are not alone. Don't give up, my weight loss partner (male) is losing 4 pounds to my one. There must be something that we are missing because this seems to be working for so many people. I decided that I am going to start over on Monday, using the MFP calorie guide. I…
  • I love that saying. I always say that I am fat. I need to learn that I am more than the fat that I see when I look in the mirror. I am old enough to be your mother yet I haven't managed to learn this yet. Thanks for the inspiration.
  • I have been on MFP about a month and it sounds like we are in about the same spot. I am going to be 50 in May. I have a lot farther to go than you do but I REALLY need encouragement. I have tried to lose weight many times and have never been successful. One thing that I need to do is to make myself move more, I don't get…
