Been there and with the help of the app and support I have lost the weight. Give yourself a chance with it before considering surgery.

Welcome and I have to agree your makeup is fabulous!!!! :) :) :)

Hey There! I had to do some calculations but in the past 3 years I have lost 21 stone! I See that you want to loose about 14 pounds if my math is right. It's very hard to get started and stay on track. The best advice I can offer is give up the guilt and don't announce your plans to one and all. The guilt comes in when you…

I find that it keeps me aware of what I put in my mouth. I used to eat because I was sitting, watching T.V., reading, or breathing. What I found out is the app helped to make me accountable and think about why I was eating. I was full but not paying attention to my body saying stop! I still enjoy having everything layed…

I have lost 300 pounds and the roll will most likely stay unless I have skin surgery. The idea of eating more calories to loose weight seemed strange to me at first. I refused to go over 950 a day and was burning anywhere from 1000 to 2000 calories a day. I finally started eating 1100-1250 a day and burning the same…

My trainer told me and it make sense we are working and growing muscle. That muscle uses food quickly! Sedentary fat doesn't burn quickly or efficiently. Feed your muscles ladies!!

Been there with about double your highest weight. I am so glad that you have an upbeat attitude as it's a long hard process. You have won half the battle with your positive outlook on life. I for the first time in my life am not morbidly obese and it's taking time for my mind to catch up. I should have worked on that too.…

SW 327 CW 140 GW 110-115 I have been busting my butt for 18 months and recently have added friends on MFP. I still have a ways to go and would love to give and receive support. A complete lifestyle change is hard, but friends make it easier.

Thank you for the kind words and encouragement! Stay healthy and beautiful.

When I was strolling my neighborhood after a workout and people I have known for years didn't recognize me.

Pulled out the measurement tape today. 38-32-43! I look like a pear! Considering my hips started at 60 it's a good pear!

How strange it is when your hipbones poke out and you feel ribs. Hiw your boobs fall out when you bend over and your bra is too big. How uncomfortable you are sitting and laying down because that padding you carried for years is gone. Congratulations!

You are awesome! Congratulations on taking control of your life. I am so happy for you!

I think it really hit tonight. I saw a friend who has been mia for about a year. When I walked past her my daughter said why didn't you speak to Dora? I hadn't noticed her but she saw me. She didn't say anything because according to her I looked familiar but tiny so she wasn't sure. That is the first time anyone used tiny…

Thank you all for the support and kind words.

Congratulations! Great work!

Congratulations. You were beautiful before but now you are just glowing. I know that feeling now and am thrilled you are having that experience.

All of the one-size-fits all that you get from stores as an ectra gift on mother's day. My kids always asked if I liked them. I always said yes and put them away. I am now working my way through years of t-shirts,robes,and night shirts I can finally wear.

The calorie and nutrient tracker were a big help. Now along with that I do at least 5 miles of cardio everyday. What I find is most people who have known me for years have no idea you I am. I saw a guy yesterday who hadn't seen me in months. His month fell open, he pointed, and then asked "where's the rest of you?". That…

I finally did 4 miles today! I started with half a mile and worked my way up. It was amazing to see my stamina increase. No heavy breathing but plenty of sweat.

You look great!

I started in a plus size 28. Now I wear a 12.

When a pair of pants I couldn't get past my hips not only zipped up but fell on the floor. It was a good day.

I have lost 135 pounds with this app. The reason this works is it makes you accountable for your own success. I have been in several group situations two of which provided the food you eat. Public weighing and shaming don't work for weight loss and most likely lead to emotional eating. Try the app for one month and see how…

Fantastic. Congratulations!
