I really admire your attitude and outlook,. They help to make you a beautiful person outwardly , but more importantly inside!!!

My husband and I both use MFP. I am on this site way more. He is able to just monitor his calorie intake and lose just as much weight as I have. I watch the calories and exercise. Last week he started leaving Farmville/Facebook, ... a little early and taking a walk. He has been on board with the food changes and not eating…

I never get tired of seeing success stories. The weight loss really shows in your face. You look so much younger. Keep it up and thanks for sharing!!

Great story to wake up to!! I read every word. Very, very encouraging !!!

Yes, it works like a glorified pedometer but it encourages me to move and achieve certain goals.. I've had mine for about a month and would buy it again. My husband had one before I decided to buy one.

5'4" GW 135 which is 10 pounds more than my college weight. I'm so far from that, so will reevaluate when I get closer. ETA: 1200-1400 calories

This is a great site for encouragement. The success stories are great for motivating me. I started out at 258 and have lost 12 pounds so far. Monday is weigh-in for week 4.

What a nice gesture!

I'm 5'4" and started out at 258. It's still hard to type those numbers. I'm 12 pounds down with more than a 100 to go. So please add me if you like.

You look about 10 years younger.

You look great!! Thank you for sharing your life. It's encouraging and you've already helped at least one person.

This spoke to me especially figuring out what the triggers are!

Those 22 lbs look more like 50!! You have really lost around the middle. Thanks for sharing and encouraging the rest of us!!!

I track , even when I don't want to. The Cherry Angel Food cake is gone and hubby only had one serving.

From another site (Beyond Diet) but it was a pain to log in your meals. Someone suggested MFP. I have to limit my time sitting in front of the computer cause I love reading all the success stories, encouragement and good information. Before I know it a couple of hours have passed.

What a difference!! Thanks for sharing and keeping me motivated!!!

51 here and working hard to get rid of 100+ pounds.

What a transformation, especially in your face. You don't look like the same person. Keep it up. You are inspiring me!!

I like a handful of almonds, baby carrots or some blueberries.

Raw Almonds. Trader Joes Just a Handful single serve bag is about 200 calories.

Congrats!!! Losing 100+ pounds is stunning and makes such a difference in your appearance. I bet folks around you are amazed!!

BJ was my initials before I married, 6886 date I was baptized as an adult.

I'm 5'4" and my goal is 135 which is ten pounds heavier than my freshman, sophomore and junior years in college, but 5 pounds less than when I graduated.

I'm glad you didn't wait to share. Your success is so encouraging and you look GREAT!!!

You look great. Congrats on the positive changes in health and weight.

I'm 51 turning 52 in June. Please add me.

Anj, I so appreciate your post. It's encouraging, especially to someone like me with a lot of weight to lose.

My first week, so count me as one of your friends.
