I ordered a pair of Miss Me jeans as new goal pants, never thinking that I would be able to fit into them. They arrived yesterday- and they fit!!!

Anything by Quest!

I love this post!! Back in December, I thought about getting rid of my couch so I would have room for a treadmill. Everyone thinks I am crazy! Lol. I joined a gym instead. Actually, currently I belong to 2.

I've now been on MFP for 185 days and lost 81lbs. Here's some recent NSVs - ( keep in mind, I'm 45 and started at 317lbs, size 24W pants) 1. I ordered a XL bathing suit from Victoria's Secret. It came this week. It fits! (But probably need -20lb pounds to wear with confidence, lol) 2. Had to adjust my car seat, apparently…

Have you tried leg compression sleeves? I started running in January, and I got them to help with shin splints. They are awesome! You can order them from Amazon.

You are at a healthy BMI, so maybe you should just concentrate on improving your fitness? The scale is someimes not the best judge.

Great job!!!

I just started C25k at the end of January. I am very slow still repeating week 3. But, have you tried compression leg sleeves? They have saved me, oh and really good running shoes- I got Hoka One One shoes. Awesome!

Of course, you should see your dr but low energy, problems with electrolytes and vitamin deficiencies sounds like Celiac or gluten allergy. Have you been tested? I had all of those issues before finding out.

Research compression leg sleeves- they work wonderful at helping prevent shin splints.

My SW was 263 Last week was 256.4 Today was 255.8 Slow and steady wins the race!

I just finished Week1-Day 3!

My SW was 263 LW was 260 Today 256.4 3.6 for the week, 6.6 so far!!

SW 263 Today 260.0 Only lost 3 pounds in two weeks

I work for a large corporation and I take advantage of all the wellness programs but they don't offer gym reimbursement

Congratulations everyone! I am down 2.6 pounds for the first week, only 97.4 more to go!!

Congratulations everyone! I am down 2.6 pounds for the first week, only 97.4 more to go!!

I weight myself every day. I track using MFP and Happy Scales apps. Happy Scales shows averages and predictions. I am afraid to not weigh daily, it gives me comfort that I am still on the right track.

Good luck everyone! Don't forget to post your starting weight today. Look at it, then subtract 100 pounds....that's where we are going!!!!

Today's official weight 263.0 I started MFP in Sept 2015...54 pounds ago. "If you want something you've never had, you have to do things that you've never done."

Hi everyone! I'm Christy and I'm 45 years old. I started Sept 22, and have lost 52 pounds so far. My goal is to lose another 117 pounds and be fit!!

Where does everyone else live?

Oh, yeah I have a FitBit, so if you have one too, let me know!

I was diagnosed with severe gluten allergies ( Celiac) at the age of 43 ( two years ago). Looking back, my stomach issues had been going on for years. Now, I can tell immediately if I accidentally ingest gluten, and rash is one of the first indications. Sometimes, gluten intolerance/allergies/Celiac can cause unexplained…

Great job! I don't think that is tiny, any triumph over an illness is huge!!

You are allowed to say "NO" to things you don't want to do. Many of us gained weight because we didn't put ourselves first. Take of you!

You are amazing!!

I like Stevia in The Raw or Now brand stevia.

Thanks for the post! At first, I was taken back by your question, but it made me really think as to why I waited so long to lose weight. It was personally very eye opening.

This is a strange one, lol. But, hopefully somebody will appreciate it. My cat always lays on one of my legs when I watch tv. For the last couple times, he has dug his paws into the side of my thigh like he was going to fall off. Lol. I think my thighs are getting smaller!
