Being diagnosed with high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes. I was already diagnosed with high blood pressure a few years ago. I had to finally realize I was killing myself with my food choices. Finally started eating much healthier and exercising. I have a personal trainer who is wonderful and pushes me to do things I never…

I learned that it's not impossible to lose weight. I learned that losing weight really helps with health issues. Just went to my 3 month follow-up after being diagnosed with diabetes. I was taking 2 medicines to control it...both high dosages. My doctor removed one of my 100mg pills to a 2mg pill. I'm hoping in my next 3…

You look amazing! :flowerforyou:

You look fantastic! Great job!!!!!

You look incredible! You truly are an inspiration to many of us! I'm so happy for you!

I love seeing the before, during and after pictures! You look AMAZING! I'm so very happy for you!!!

Thank you so much for breaking this down for me! No one has explained the details of how it all works. I can't thank you enough. I hope you don't mind, but I'm going to copy, print it and put it on the refrigerator. As far as the small meals...how many calories do you recommend? Could you write down an example for me? Have…

That is FANTASTIC news! I can't wait till I get there too....and we can't wait to see pictures. :)

Thank you for sharing! I love the pictures and WAY TO GO!!!! I hope to be hitting 25 pounds gone by next week...fingers crossed and lots of training! :)

I can not stand Conda or Kim! They are immature and Biggest Loser is not the place for immaturity. Makes me want to stop watching it because of those two.

I want to go horseback riding! :)

For me, I cry at: P.S. I Love You Blindside Steel Magnolias Just about every Hallmark movie!

YUMMY!

PEOPLE - STOP BEING RUDE TO MY FRIEND! She merely asked a question, no need to tear her head off! I've seen some of you on here from other posts tearing people apart...I feel sorry for you - always in a bad mood! You should stop being so judgmental!

I logged cleaning yesterday as my husband and I took down the Christmas tree and decorations. I deep cleaned, did laundry, swept, mopped and vacuumed. I haven't ever logged it before, however if MFP added cleaning then it's beneficial in some way. I will say this...some of the people on here are freaking rude! Maybe…

I'm going back to school to become a Physical Therapist Assistant. It will be a challenge, but so rewarding to help someone gain their mobility. :happy:

Thank you ladies! I started taking metformin again too....mainly because I have diabetes. I know that it will take longer for me to lose weight, and I'm trying to be patient. I know it's not a race and that it took me 33 years to get to this size, and losing is a slower process. Thank you for your support ladies!!! I…

Kansas City, Missouri.... go KC Royals and Chiefs! :)

Both my Mom and Brother had gastric bypass. With that surgery, they actually make your stomach the size of an egg. After their surgery they were on a jello diet for a week. They do really well because they eat until they're full...all healthy stuff of course. They saw a Nutritionist that told them what to eat. They can't…

Please go seek help! Coming from someone who has depression, it can get ugly quick. Doctor's are there for you and can help you. I didn't seek help at first because I didn't want anyone to think I was crazy. Seeing a doctor was the best thing I've ever done for myself. I was put on some medicine and feel better.…

Thank you for sharing your journey with us! It's so inspirational to me! Congratulations on meeting your goal! :)

I'm so happy for you! What an inspiration to us all! You look fantastic!!!!!

I'm always over too! I'd like to see what everyone says.

I just started my journey in November. I've lost 14 pounds so far and I have 104 more to go. I'm 33 and would love to have friends for support throughout this journey....and I promise to support you! :)
