wow! You look so happy, healthy, and fit! You are an inspiration. Congrats on reaching your goals :smiley:

Sweets are my downfall also. I just love the taste of anything sweet. My daughter on the other hand hardly eats sweets at all. She doesn't like ther flavor. I think all people have different taste buds, and some of us like the sweet way to much lol. Anyway, I am giving up one thing at a time. I tried going cold turkey and…

I hear you. I've started over to many times to count. This time I'm sticking to it! We can do this! What I am learning this time around is that I have to do it my way. Before, I thought I had to eat only super healthy all the time to lose the weight. This time I am just staying under my calorie goal each day and trying to…

YES THIS is me lol have started and quit so many times. Thinking back, I realize, if I would have stuck with it, I would have been to goal by now and living a more free life. It is definitely time and I am so thankful I am not the only one to be a serial starter

I also would be interested in seeing/hearing some success stories in this area. I'm just starting my journey, over again, for the last time, and my tummy is my biggest issue.

Way to go!! I didn't buy any this year either, even though I was asked to purchase some from a couple of very sweet girls. I knew if I bought them, I would not be able to eat just one cookie, and end up eating the whole box.

I have been a member of MFP for years and weigh more now than I ever have. No fault of MFP because I use them every time I start over and every time I lose by counting calories. I am my own worst enemy. Starting over tomorrow and praying I have the will power and drive to make this the last time I start. Good luck…

Ashamed is where I am at right now. Starting over again...... have lost 5 lbs in the last 15 days and hoping for 5 more in the next 15. Can't wait till I no longer feel ashamed. Congrats!!

Thanks everyone for the help and guidance! I have about 80 pounds to lose. I have some pretty bad intestinal issues that I deal with daily. Cramping etc. My doctor mentioned I could try going gluten free but I thought maybe I would try low carb first and work my way into giving up breads, pasta, etc . I also deal with a…

You look wonderful! You have given me hope that if I stay on this journey my knees will stop hurting so much as well. Any suggestions for exercises that are easy on my knees?

Great Job! You look fantastic!

I knew I was losing weight when I had to tighten my belt to the last hole!

Hey everybody! My name is Megan. I am from Illinois and weigh 224lbs. My goal is to be down to 199lbs before my DD high school graduation in May. I have started the 30 day shred before and saw results quickly, at least in inches lost, but when I exercise the bottom of my feet start hurting so bad I have to stop and then I…

I keep Progresso brand soup at work in the cupboard so if I forget my lunch I have something on hand. They are pretty good. I buy the light varieties, most are 100 calories or less per serving. I then have a granola bar or cottage cheese around 4:00 and that keeps me full till supper time.
