Are you weighing all your food on a food scale?

Rock and roll! Push-ups were my nemesis, too. Feels awesome to conquer them!

Rock it, girl!!

I love peanut butter with dill pickles!

Love Kimchi, rice, egg and chicken. Or beef. Or no meat at all. It's the kimchi and rice that gets me! Yummmmm !!

I like to throw some in the crockpot with a packet of onion soup mix (mixed with water). Yummy!

The only thing wrong is your expectations. You have lost a great amount in that timeframe. It is a marathon, not a sprint! Keep at it!!

I have been trying to avoid this thread based on the title. I knew it would make me sob. And it did. But it was beautiful. It is crazy what an effect dogs have on our lives. The death of my dog a few years ago is what prompted me to join the gym and lose weight ... tomorrow I will go visit his final resting place (in a…

My gym has a sign in the ladies room: Losing weight is hard. Being overweight is hard. Choose your hard. While there are strategies you can use (many helpful ones listed here) it all comes down to you being committed to following them. I got fat because I ate too much. It's that simple. I have now lost 110 lbs because I…

I don't know how to add people but I have discovered I love lifting! I am only at 95lb squat, 75lb bench (why is that so hard? Lol) and 175lb deadlift but I will keep progressing. Over time I have grown to hate cardio but love lifting heavy things!!

Woot! Finally collected our prizes tonight. $125 for me and $100 for hubby. Plus gift certificates for both of us for the local meat market. Big *kitten* NY Strips, here we come!!

I love the garlic stuffed olives from Target's food line. 4 of them are around 60 calories and salty enough to suck the moisture out of your head (in a good way, Lol!)

Great results! Keep at it!

Not at all - search for the zillion threads on this subject and you'll see there is nothing magic about weight loss or we'd all be skinny! Lol - good luck.

Add sriracha or spicy mustard to just about anything!

Raisin Bran and dry wheat toast. Sandwich with just deli meat or cheese and cottage cheese. Sometimes I hate cooking, especially when it is hot out!

Extra sodium, water retention from traveling ... unless you ate a crap ton over your goal you did not gain 6lbs of fat. When I return from a trip, I always drink lots of water and wait at least a week before getting on a scale.

I have about 20-25 lbs to go. Lost about 64 since on MFP but close to 110 total already

Black pepper and strawberries together? Or is that two separate ideas? Sounds intriguing...

112 lbs down and I love me ALL of the carbs! Lol

Not broken!

It's about double the size of the ring finger on my right hand ... but I can kind of bend it so I *assume* it's not broken. ;-)

I know not everyone is here to lose weight but I always wonder how people who "can't eat more than 800-1200 calories" per day (not necessarily you, OP) end up here. MFP is set up to give you a deficit without any exercise ... meaning if you eat the amount it tells you, you don't need to exercise and you can still lose…

I guess if your teeth fall out then technically you lost a few ounces! Lol

Just reposting for the Taco Bell fans! Lol https://www.foodbeast.com/news/taco-bell-has-low-key-become-one-of-americas-healthiest-fast-food-chains/

Once I realized that losing weight is simply math (simple does NOT mean easy) ... and I knew I could rock math ... the weight came off and keeps coming off.

You look fantastic!

Would be great if more people read the info and approached it like this. ;-) You can do it!

I used to travel more but still do quite a bit. I am in an industry that likes to drink. Rather than explain my preferences, I have just approached bartenders/waiters and told them to give me soda water in a cocktail glass and make it look like a cocktail. No cal and I don't have to deal with the "why aren't you drinking?"…
