I'd like to join a group just not sure how to find it again (if I post will it keep me connected?) there are SO many groups - I'm 60 now 202 lbs (from 207 in 2 weeks) and "moving" whether lifting light weights, a little workout video, or a day of house cleaning (I've had 6 surgeries) but I want to be 155 lbs again (been…

I just turned 60 and came back to this site too. I'm also incorporating a book to learn to "change my thinking" so I do not use food for any emotional reason and I'm enjoying having something finally new after all these years that actually makes sense to me. I'd LOVE to find someone who'd like to chat using the email on…

sent you a message :)

Motor City!!! Detroit, Michigan <3

great, no one replied :(

Oh this is a GREAT thread for me! I came back after being gone for MONTHS yesterday. Today is day 2 and lost 2 lbs (you know water) and 14 more by Christmas will take me to 1/2 the goal I want! I'll only have 10 to go after that, so LETS DO THIS! I need some place to post my weight daily - so I'm IN if it's ok :) (I'm 179…

ok I found a thread I like (not sure how to mark it so I don't lose you all) but I was on here last spring, was doing great - lost about 20 lbs and of course put on 11, so here I am again - not in a race, but looking also for others who "get me". I do think our age plays a roll. I'm 59 and had surgery on both feet, in P.T.…

I"m in too! That's the magic number! Add me too

you're beautiful in both - makes me think of my little girl and I honestly didn't notice when she was a little chunky - but now she's so tiny, works out, runs, etc., and also changed her hair I look at the comparison's and I can't believe the difference - what's the most amazing part is the self esteem and there's NOTHING…

HI girls! OMG, I started at 187 (middle of last month) and had surgery last week on 14th so I can't walk (for now) but before surgery I was 179 and my goal is to stay between 150 -155 too! so I'd LOVE to watch your thread. I keep trying to ind ONE real motivated person who's also focused and really do this (I'm only…

one day at a time love - I use to be 300 lbs, it's not about working out, it's not about challenges (I just had 3 surgerys a week ago and won't be walking for 2 months) yet I'm losing weight - (oh, I had gone from 300 to 160) but the last 2 yrs I "chose" (imagine that, like you I've always been heavy) but I chose after…

I've been on here now about a month and just had major surgery last week which is leaving me with leg UP and no touching ground for 6 weeks - but I am so glad I started and it's so easy to simply calculate calories. I (like most) have yo-yo'd my entire LIFE, but about 15 yrs ago I lost over 150 lbs and kept it off until…

I don't want to continue this - As I stated I'm coming out of 3 yrs of hell and just had major surgery 2 days ago, have no relatives in this country, and all I can say is I'm still human and I did feel sad - so it's over and done with - I'm moving forward and will post what I want, where I want and when I want - if they…

I can't control the feelings that came from it, I only wanted to share what was happening to me and I'm still feeling sad, but I must do whatever to live. I have gone thru 3 yrs of pure hell and coming out of it finally and trying to also get back in shape all of us are vulnerable and if it's "prohibited" for some odd…

I need to add a little more because I know human's don't realize that sometimes they hurt one another. As a minister, I've counseled hundreds in the past 37 yrs but I need to do me and who would have thought writing to keep myself going esp right now when I have no family, can't even minister others, can't work and can't…

I never have to hunt - the blog area doesn't work for everyone as I've written down the error message and sent to them. I need to write and I look at it like this - no one has to read it either if they don't want. I need to finally think of me first and take care of myself and writing and adding up calories is what's…

the numbing medicine is wearing off already! YIKES it's suppose to last up to 4 days and I'm only at 24 hours and I feel it, but will try my best NOT to take the drugs - I'm really not a drug person :( I will however if I can't handle it - Lord by Your stripes I AM healed with NO pain, in Jesus name, amen

Amen I stay IN MY heart - NOT my head! Glory be to God and I truly can do this -

Hi wylde (name pls, LOL) I'm here for you and I'm sure everyone else is also! This site has been wonderful and I'm only at 2.5 weeks now - 8 lbs down and had surgery today! I feel WONDERFUL and I believe this site is truly my saving grace. I need to start sharing some real truths such as - If you believe you can't you…

No I want to look into it but with surgery so close, I didn't have time to order and mess with it - but once I'm on feet I will do it. Is this something You have then? Do I need to buy one per t.v. or one that will work on all 3? thanks for asking. Also my surgery went so well I'm surprised. This is my other foot and I…

wow - ok let me say it another way THAND YOU JESUS for NO Pain, hardly any dizziness and no need to vomit! WHAT??? YEP sure didn't - ok and first time around 2.5 hours, this time 1.5 hours and a smaller cast (all I had to do was ask him) Oh I have such a wonderful surgeon. Though this cast is STILL much bigger than the one…

Welcome "Is" I wish I knew people's names, hahaha - Look, I know a lot and yet I know nothing, but I DO know this - WE know who we are and how honest we are to ourselves and what really works and doesn't and that's why I LOVE This site because for me, I am using it to the fullest which for me means this - I WRITE! I use to…

hey girls - very hard day (my heart is hurting over my son) but I'm still "choosing" to love me FIRST and that means the old mental voices that say to just comfort myself with food is a simple choice on my part and I'm choosing NOT to eat over anything and rather, I NEED to feel the hurt. I've done this on and off in the…

David said he had to encourage himself. My heart is heavy, I can't deny that - my son has me down. To hear him drunk hurt my heart and all I can think of right now is where is my bff - she's with Jesus and I'm so alone, crying and when I try to call Lana she's usually busy, with Randall, whatever and I sit here with the…

Well I'm sure my words won't matter much, but when I was young I always liked (ok, still do really) real thin men - don't know why, I just do - so I also took those words (whimpy) not to be very kind and hopefully you ignore them because you look wonderful at all those sizes to be honest but all that matters is what YOU…

ok, I KNOW which dress but 99% sure the royal - but why do I want to see that navy? NO make up your mind girl - go royal and call it a day, Ok ROYAL (did I just decide while typing on this thing?) YES I sure did, LOL Royal - now to call her tomorrow, give her a down payment and NOT worry - YES - feels good to decide the…

Girl, "when" I was able to work out I did the measuring thing (and yes it's nice to see) but it still didn't help with the scale. I think it's a mental issue to be honest- I think since we've all had it affect us from childhood - it's like the bad evil tool we allow to beat the crap out of us, LOL - Just getting on twice…

hi Cybermadi - welcome love! I'm talking to a woman in England and one in Ireland so it's a beautiful thing! We're all family and makes no difference in the world, it's always the same issue with the food, weight and scale (well except you guys use kg which means I'm clueless along with those stones, LOL) but it's all…

OMG Lord, could you bless me more in one day? I got a text from my son who is being a knucke-head right now's girfriend and though they are not broken up and she moved in with her mom, she knows I'm the babies yiayia (grandmother) and she was KIND enough to ask if I'd like her to make the drive (she's over an 1.5 hr drive)…

I think tomorrow I'll go out again and enjoy the day (hope it's not too cold) but head to the bridal store JUST to see before surgery - I'm got to have my backup plans - but then again, I may fall in love with a reasonable dress - ok, I'm PRAYING that will happen!
