Excellent results for your very hard work @Lucy1752. Well Done. Those last 10 pounds were stubborn but you did it. Congrats to you!

I love your smile in the second pic posted Nov 11 1:58. You know you have got this!!! Great work and very inspiring. Thank you!

I also eat when I am not hungry! So.... here are a few ideas that work for me Drink something low or no calorie - water (hot, warm, cold or iced), tea, coffee, broth (I buy chicken or veggie broth and often water it down so it doesn't taste too strong) Floss your teeth - really, this helps! Use mint floss for flavour (lol)…

Very inspiring! Well done. Thanks to all for sharing pics of progress.

Wonderful results for your hard work.

Bump to follow this thread!

Wonderful results from your very hard work and dedication! Very inspiring. Wishing you all the best for "the home stretch"!

I live in a cold climate too, and salad in the winter sometimes just does not hit the spot! So I have lots of soups. I don't follow fancy recipes but soup is a great way to get lots of filling veggies without breaking the bank or going over my calories for a day. Also spaghetti squash is a favourite of mine. It is filling,…

Great work!!! Looking onederful. Congrats to you!

Congratulations on your amazing accomplishment! You are inspiring!

To feel comfortable in my white jeans. They are still a bit too tight!!!

Slow and steady gets the job done! Good for you.

Beautiful scenery! Congrats on your improving health and fitness.

I'm 40 years older than you, but pretty much the exact same history stats. When I had a plateau for 4 weeks I asked MFP friends for advice. I was told to measure everything I ate - with a scale, not by volume. They said I was underestimating! Ha ha - I was ticked off and sad because I knew I wasn't.... but I got a food…

Thanks for posting this! Great idea - well executed - easy to access - very motivating. Cheers

I think most of us have this issue sometimes. I save calories and plan to snack. Then when the taste of the snack is 100% gone I brush and floss my teeth. I do stay out of the kitchen too! Good luck.

Hope you are feeling better. Your hard weight loss work is paying off. Congrats! Looking forward to seeing more success posts when you are ready to post again.

You might just have "analysis paralysis". Just use MFP and track your calories to keep your intake in the appropriate range for your goals.College is a great time to start new habits! Find like minded people and hang out with them. Meet them in the school fitness centre, the pool, the weight room etc. Join a dance or…

Well done! Best wishes for continued success!

Good work! What a fine example of self care you are setting. Your schedule is so busy and you did this!!! Just wow.

Your hard work is paying off! Good for you!

Well done you! Inspirational. Thanks for posting.

What a great example for your kids! Happy birthday. Kudos to your wife for her support.

Great results for great work! Congrats.

cico = calories in calories out. take in fewer calories than you use up and you will lose weight

I have adjusted my thinking from wanting to feel full to wanting to not feel hungry. Big difference in this mindset for me. I agree with posters above that protein and lots of greens are great choices. I drink lots of water too.

I too check out the success stories. Very inspirational! Also, I learned that you start something due to motivation and stick with it due to routine. Good luck.

I have a pair of lovely lined trousers I wore to work 3 years ago. Then I gained and had 2 years when I could not wear them. They were not just tight - I couldn't zip up the side zipper!!! Now I can put them on and do up the zip, just, but they are still to tight to move in. Looking forward to the day they will slip on…
