I added you!

I added you!

I recently started a group here on MFP for those with 100+ lbs to lose! I will send you a friend request and if you are interest in the group, let me know! :)

I'm interested!

I listen to audio books. This is something new I started a month or so ago, but I love it! I've read several books this way.

I have very similar feelings sometimes! It is hard. Very hard. I got a gym membership and I wanted to avoid the gym,.but I forced myself to walk through the doors. I got a personal trainer to help me because I really did feel intimidated being there. He has helped 100% with that. I also work with a man who used to be a…

I started taking Contrave on July 22. I have lost just over 18 lbs. For me, it has been just the tool I have needed. I have worked really hard to eat right and exercize. I'm 33 and have quite a bit of weight to lose (over 100 lbs). So, I'm only at the beginning of my journey, but I finally feel like there is a light at the…

I was in a very similar marriage. Before I met him I was 140. After my pregnancy I was 200+. I never lost the weight. I was constantly told that no one would love me, I was stupid, lazy, etc. My daughter is now 12 and I am FINALLY facing my issues with food. Even though I have been in a happy, healthy relationship for over…

I was going to ask about TOM as well. I usually gain about a pound and it stays there for a week. Then, I lose it plus some. Last month I lost the pound plus another 1.5 lbs!

I just sent you a friend request. I have a lot of weight to lose too. If you ever want someone to talk to, send me a message. You can do this! Since I have started I have already lost 14 lbs! I bought a digital scale from Walmart for maybe $15 or $20. I started slowly walking in the evenings. I get that feeling "what if I…

I agree 100% with this. I worry about the same things too. I think that because we are aware of it, we have a better chance of staying on top of things down the road. Plus, we are learning skills right now (weighing food, logging food, exercise, etc) that will only benefit us in the long run.

I'm a little older (33), but have about the same stats as you. I'll send a friend request! :)

You look awesome. I can't imagine it was easy going through such a transformation in high school. You did amazing and it is so awesome that you did this while you were young. I don't even know you and I am proud of you! Good luck with the rest of your journey. :)

My mom lost 85 pounds a few years ago. She was flying through clothing sizes. She shopped at thrift stores for the most part. Everything she found was super cute. She didn't keep a huge wardrobe. When she reached her goal, she did a major shopping trip to reward herself.

I just completed my first week on Contrave and lost 8 lbs. I feel like this has been a great decision for me. I have significantly reduced my daily calories (per my doctor), I started walking 3 times a week, and I drinks tons of water. I know those items alone will aid in weight loss. For me, this pill has helped with the…
