Hi everyone, I'm here to lose anywhere from 65-85 more pounds from where I am right now. I stepped on my scale in May to see 295lb and was horrified. I remember a time in my life where I thought, "I will never see 200lb" and sure enough....I went right past that and had reached almost 300lb about 12 years later. I was…

What's wrong with being a fat a ho? 🤔 Jk, but seriously f them. The fact that ppl even resort to physical stuff as an insult is a huge weakness. Easy cheap shots. 16lb is awesome! Just keep doing you.

I love my JBL wireless earphones. They are made so that you twist them to fit inside your ear and they have decent bass. My husband hated them but I love them. They've never fallen out while I'm moving like crazy and have a long charge/life. Like $50 at Walmart, probably less now.

I got started with Fitness Blender. Not too heavy, low impact. I had to modify the modifications 😆 but dang it, it worked.

I've heard waist trainers actually weaken the back by restricting your waist/ab movement in general so I imagine that correlates to exercise. I would get some high waisted workout pants when working out that secures extra fat but doesn't restrict ab muscle movement. I've had 1 c section and man it's still weird 2 years…

🦦 I love otters!

I discovered this a few weeks ago and I'm in love. I tried the generic kind and it just wasn't the freakin same at all 😒. The coffee one is good too.

I don't see any judgement toward WLS. It's not for everyone and they're just voicing what they've seen with loved ones hence concern, not judgment. Good luck with your journey and I'm glad you're making the right choice for yourself.

Your mom, bless her heart, doesn't understand what health means for you. What you need to do is go about your day exactly how you want it to go and leave mama where she is. You let her say what she wants but you go full throttle on what you need to be doing. I'm a mom and I know 1000% if I wanted something that went…

It's mandatory to wear masks at the gym where I live which is the worst. I will for sure be cheering you on Chrissy!!

For me, absolutely not. Instead of cheat days, I let myself have whatever I want if I REALLY want it. Bag of chips that doesn't fit in my cals? Yes. Going out to eat spur of the moment? Yes. Anything more than 1 "cheat" treat is too much for me. Sends me into a low feeling and then I spend the next day hoping I don't…

I want to say a therapist or counselor because you look like one I knew!

Hi Liz, would love to motivate and support you. I also have that much to lose as well and am slowly getting there 😊.

Seriously just wearing jeans and a cute t-shirt and feeling good. I for years have worn cardigans or jackets to "hide" how fat I am knowing I can't really hide anything.

Yum. Quesadillas

This is silly but I used to work at a pizza place when I was 17 and had the best time with the other ppl I worked with. I was constantly laughing and had fun. No job I've had since then has been "enjoyable", hence me trying to get a degree now in what I'm hoping will bring fulfillment. Also, 🐕.

I really like Fitness Blender and Heather Robertson. They both have low impact options if you want to take it easy on your joints but still get that heart rate up.

Wish I could get one! CONGRATS and I hope it helps with your weight loss!

Check out Fit2be on Facebook! Good luck!

32, mama of 3 crazies, 29lb down-100ish lbs to go. I'm very active and love to see my mfp friends progress and look forward to seeing the daily log ins. Anyone is welcome to add me! It's awesome having support for something of this magnitude.

If surgery is the answer, I totally applaud that for you. Do you have a meal plan or anything to get you going? Wishing you so much success and a new lifestyle that brings you joy!

Building pools for great danes who are afraid of water. What will you be doing at 3am?

Last thing I would say was about 6 Takis. I could usually finish a whole bag of chips if I wanted in the past so it was ok. Trying to keep chips out of my diet because I don't have enough control yet but I have no regrets.

I'm around 60 days and no end in sight. Definitely a life change for me.

I like them, especially the low impact ones. Heather Robertson is awesome too.

I recently found crystallized orange, lemon and lime packets that are much easier to use on the go or whatever. "Just Lime" etc. The less cokes I drink, the less I want them. You could also try fruit infuser water bottles and try different fruit. Good luck!

I had a salad that was a total rip off. I don't understand how it could have even been 250 cals but I guess feta and croutons were the culprit. Plus the dressing which is a staple for the salad, an additional 140 cals. Not filling in the least.
