I still see the large me in my minds eye I think. We installed security cameras in our home awhile back and I had to go back through the tapes yesterday and I did not process in my head that one of the stills was me....I was looking at the image and seriously it took me a moment to realize that slim woman was me....made me…

When you got it you got it sister! Have fun! love it!

No, but my S-O has told me to dump friends....used to fall for that shizza but no more... Are you listening when you ask someone "how are you"?

Three kids here all under 9 ; work full time ; 52 years old....tired as F-Nuck but about 15 months ago I decided I need to love myself more....and that meant kicking my own butt. It has been soooooo hard but there are no longer days that I NEED to just lay and eat my chips and salsa....I gave myself my life back and you…

snugglin with my 3 year old

Licking an MFP crush wound......gaaawwwwdddd how stupid we can be........

Scale has not moved in weeks!! But I surely love seeing that I have a neck now! 76 pound difference in the me(s) here. I am emerging.....

I have been bouncing the same 2 lbs for 12 weeks now....i am not losing faith in the process, the weight will come off, but I am frustrated with ME. It is 1000 percent what someone said...I feel so good right now I have gotten sloppy with my food logging. my food choices are still solid and I have not backtracked with my…

I am 5'2 and 52 years old. When I began in February 2016 I weighed 266. I currently weigh 189 and have plateaued a bit but not discouraged! I began heavy lifting in spring this year and have made great progress! The weight lifting has made a huge difference in my size eventhough the weight is slow to come off.

my babies at breakfast this morning....singing

Im weird and uncrushable...and the for the trifecta: Im a MFP lurker

Rude. Just Rude. Had a young man in line at the grocery story mutter something about "fat *kitten*" so I turned to him extended my hand, said my name and said "you must have a really small dick". That shut him DOWN

check that....intraspective? not sure...okay he appears thoughtful

introspective

A ......but only if it is someone my age or younger . If they are senior citizen B and usually throw in a have a great day as I pass... what if I am the only one to talk to that senior that day....then that would suck. Then I wonder how far they are walking and do they need assistance.... oh gawd. I over think shizza

True to yourself, that's one of the keys to this thing isnt it? Give yourself a big ol' hug and kiss the mirror because stepping into this journey is like loving yourself enough. I had 100 pounds to lose when I started this nonsense and I have discovered (after losing 76 of it) that the key is loving me enough to give…

slow time

I need help in the make up department and you are on point.....

Im not sure but I resonate with what Pacingoamy said.... it is constant self talk. constant. Seeing myself in my mindseye...the way I used to look and now how much I am loving seeing me....everyday is a different experience on this journey and it is such a mind bend.

I was prescribed metformin as I was beginning to show signs of diabetes....I lost weight at first (first quarter I was on it) but then I decided I needed to get serious about my health and I went off of it after losing 40 pounds on my own. Now I am down 80 pounds and not looking back! good luck!

As so many people experience, my work related stress is sometimes unbearable. I realized JUST NOW... that my mind is not thinking of comfort food but I was thinking about my walk tonight and how I cant wait.....feels soooooo good. That is not to say that I don't/wont seek the comfort of food but my first thoughts are no…

Yes but only because I have an office door.
