  • Hi, Yes, I weigh and measure everything. We eat out maybe twice a month, but when we do I make sure to be light on breakfast and lunch and then eat dinner out. This never includes an app or dessert, its the meal and a few drinks. I will say that I used to weigh 196.5 just 5 years ago and got down to 138 - then STOPPED…

  • Hi All, I am only 4"11' and at my heaviest I topped the scale at 196.5, then I discovered running and I dropped down to 138, which I was pretty happy with. Then I got sick of running, depression set in and I sabotaged myself and got back up to 181 - lost 10 pounds and stayed at 171 for 15 years, then in January I found…
  • I am working with doctors, both a therapist and a medical doctor and was on meds but they are all gone and my doctor is on vacation.
