Inspiring! So glad to hear you’ve kept the weight off.

Well done. Keep doing everything you’ve been doing and make sure these changes are lifelong! You look so much more comfortable in the right hand photo!

Wonderful wisdom, happytomebe. Taking it to heart myself.

Wow! Job well done.

Your insurance should never depend on wellness activities. That’s ridiculous.

So proud of you!

Dear Lrlong82 I just read your entire journal and I want to commend you for showing up and logging your food despite the trials and tribulations of struggling with a serious illness, and by that I mean obesity. I see you hit a low point in July and logged a 5000 cal binge, which is very useful data because it showed you…

I feel your pain. I had a health crisis and came out of it determined to address my weight and food issues. (Similar weight to you). Got on MFP and went on a 1250 cal diet. Gave up my cafe lattes (used to drink several a day), all alcohol, restrict myself to 1/2 cup milk a day, no sugar or artificial sweeteners. I had…
