Yep, I get those kinds of comments too. It's nice to hear about the work I've done, and I usually say "Look how gross I was." or something along those lines. I really do understand that people are just trying to be nice, but sometimes I'm just like "Okay! I get it!" LOL And thank you :) I agree that confidence makes a HUGE…

Wow! That's so rude! I wouldn't even know what to say to that!

That sounds like a pretty good plan to me too! I just want to be healthy and happy, that's all! :)

Thanks for the website! My weight ranges from 121-164. I think I will stick with any range between 150-160. That way I can give myself a little room because if I set one goal weight I will probably go crazy! I personally thought 150-160 was even big at first, but I never realized the amount of an impact height had on one's…

Awesome! I've recently hit the "Overweight" portion on the BMI. It's a great feeling! Granted, I do not want to be overweight, but it's better than being labeled "Obese!" The BMI sucks LOL

Congratulations! That is absolutely amazing!!!!!! You look great!

So, I guess the verdict is in: gonna change it up! Thanks for all your advice!

Thanks! Definitely going to try this!

Thanks! I hate plateaus! I'm a "I want it done now!" type person, but I have to keep reminding myself that it's not going to work like that with weight loss. I'm definitely going to keep it up - I skipped the gym for one week once and felt like CRAP! Never gonna do that again! I'll try to switch it up and see where that…

Well, my current weight is 197. I go to the gym 3-4 times per week and do at least 75 minutes of intense cardio i.e. the elliptical, stair-master, and treadmill along with some minor weight lifting to tone. I stick to the calories that MFP allows me. I think I'll try to change up my routine at the gym a little bit and cut…

Definitely! I will do my best! Still learning how the MFP community works. If I see someone going off track, I'll do my best to offer an extra kick of motivation! :)

I agree! I remember when I would eat whatever I wanted whenever I wanted, but when the calorie counting started, I was SHOCKED. Now that I know how many calories are in something, I definitely stay far away! I'll do my best to keep up the good work, and good luck to you as well! 350 to 173 is AMAZING!

That is amazing!

Welcome! I'm new to the community i.e. posting in the message boards, but have been using MFP for the past year. I can honestly say that MFP has saved my life and made weight loss (dare I say it) EASIER. I've lost 44 pounds using MFP and plan to continue! Feel free to add me if you'd like! And yes, better late than never!…
