Someone I worked with had her thyroid removed due to cancer. She did not go up in weight, but made sure she ate well and went to zumba or cardio 3 days a week (difficult with her travel schedule). It's all about relearning good habits and making good choices.

Anyone can feel free to add me :) I am on everyday logging. (I am an mfp addict now LOL!)

Chicken in balsamic vinaigrette Chicken breasts Red, yellow and orange peppers chopped or cut into slices Balsamic vinaigrette Water Depending on your size pan put in chicken breasts with the balsamic vinaigrette and some water (about 1 part vinaigrette 3 parts water for my liking ... but that depends on your tastebuds).…

Depending on what junk food you crave... you can sometimes find substitutions that help wean you off of the crap. I was addicted to Cheetos. I found Cheetos naturals (white cheddar) and switched to eating them as a little snack since they were much lower in calories. Now I barely crave them anymore. It's small changes that…

Another thing you can try is chicken baby food (stage 2). If you can't get her to eat it on her own (and most will) it is easily syringeable for force feeding if necessary. And I had a cat that went into liver failure due to not eating. Not a fun 2 months of force feeding her a mix of vet prescribed food whenever I could.…

For me it's baby steps. I couldn't go straight to skipping all of the foods I love... so I portion it out and eat less while slowly finding healthy alternatives that work for me. I cannot eat soy protein so I have a hard time finding "healthy" foods to take on the go. I am working toward a lifestyle change, not a…

39 and child free by choice. Had to take care of kids full time when I was a teenager and realized then it was not for me. I always get the "It's so different when it's your own" and "You'll regret it". Still not regretting it and from the moms I know... it's not that different when you have your own, they just know how to…

I didn't know that either... will have to try and find the baking Stevia. And thanks for the recipe site. Sold out of the "sugar but not calorie" free cookies at a fundraiser and always need new recipes for things like that :)

I have baked with "Stevia in the Raw" and it comes out OK, but not fab. Make sure you flatten the cookies before baking. Also, I added some peanut butter to an oatmeal cookie recipe and it added some needed umph. I haven't tried adding applesauce to the mix, but I have heard that that helps too. :)

You can do this. I started out at the same point as you in August. I am now down 27 pounds and slowly working the rest off. Just dedicate yourself to logging daily and you will be on your way.

I am a definite addict! Anyone who wants to can add me. :-)

Hi! I'm from the land of beer and cheese as well! I'm slowly making progress losing weight and ww never worked for me.

Saw an backside pic of myself (can usually ignore most pics, but this one made me look ginormous). So glad I started changing my habits little by little and really glad I got the personal trainer. Next step is a gym membership. 100 lb goal... here I come.

I am at 1200 calories a day... Don't always eat healthy, but try to stay in range and take vitamins.

Congratulations!

I am looking to lose a little over 100 lbs. If anyone wants to add me, feel free!

Feel free to add me if you like. I am away from home a lot so I know how hard it is to stay focused on the go.
