  • I actually just restarted the journey. I lost about 30 lbs a year ago and have gained about 15 back:( But I'm newly motivated and looking for friends!! Add me please!
  • As an advocate of the plus-size movement, I will respectfully disagree with you. I don't advocate that being morbidly obese is healthy in any way. I've been heavy my entire life and I come from a family of larger people, so I know the health issues involved (which is why I'm working on losing the extra weight). There are a…
  • I'm looking to lose 150lbs. Anyone looking for a friend and support can add me! The more the merrier!!
  • My dog used to be like this as well. She would only eat when someone was in the kitchen with her. If you left the kitchen before she was done, she would follow you and forget about the food. She did get over it eventually, we didn't do anything different. Please don't feel bad about having a dog and working. I hate when…

  • Welcome to the club! I feel ya. I carry my weight very well (very few people would guess that I was 360 at my heaviest). And for a long time, I never admitted to that number. I was ashamed of it and for good reason. I've been at this for almost 3 months now and I have to say it's been life changing. I'm only down 13 lbs…
  • That is so inspiring! I'm only 81 days in, but that's so much longer than I've ever stuck to a diet. I've learned that motivation is key. Having both short-term and long-term goals is absolutely necessary. Long-term goals are great to keep in sight, but it can be frustrating to work for weeks or months and not achieve…
  • I'm always looking for more friends to keep me motivated. Anyone who wants to add me, feel free, I don't bite...hard ;)
  • One of the things I've found helps with the chocolate cravings is keeping some of the mini candy bars on hand. When I get that craving for a Snickers, I eat a mini and it goes away. They're only 45-50 calories a piece, so it would put a huge dent in your calorie count either. Just don't keep the bag near you. You will eat…

  • My MIL lives with us and won't move out! She keeps backing up her move out date because of this and that. my husband and I used to joke that as long as she was out by our 1st anniversary we'd be happy. That will be September 2017. Her new move out date? October 2017. I'm at my wit's end. She doesn't cook, clean or grocery…
  • First of all, you need a new doctor. Preferably one with a little bedside manner. I understand not wanting to sugarcoat things, but damn. Have a little compassion. Secondly, I know that conceiving while obese does come with certain risks, but it is not impossible. Both of my sisters are obese (~250-280lbs) and they have 6…
