  • Hi there! Yess, lets do this! You sound just like me, I’ve been starting over and over for the last few years and people are sick of me saying I’m trying to lose weight.

  • Mine was a few different moments all of which happened within a close time. I was diagnosed with cancer, dumped by my long term bf and then I saw myself in photos which made me realise how big I’d gotten. I feel like I was in denial like oh I, not that big or I don’t look too different but then the photos were so…
  • Ha I love this! I’m new here although been using MFP on and off to log cals for a few years. 2020 is definitely the year....we can do this!
