I lose 125 lbs over the course of 2012. Feel free to add me, I love encouraging people who are just starting out.

From a company who doesn't eat cancer obviously.

I have nothing but love for PF. When I was 285, PF was the gym I joined in order to get moving again. 125 pounds later, I don't regret that choice. :D

Gluten tastes great!

If you eat more your body will hold on to fat. :)

You must conquer your hanger and learn to control it.

Carbs wont make you fat - It's a lie, they doooooo.

Thank you!

Broscience. I've had protein shakes before, after, during and even when I didn't workout and I still had no problem losing. If it fits in your calorie goals, you will have no problems. :)

I've kept 125 pounds off for a year and a half! :)

With all the eye rolling going on in this thread, people are going to have their eyes stuck in the back of their heads. :)

Chicken breast, tilapia, beef jerky, protein powders

OP makes an excellent point! If all you make are excuses, all you will ever have are excuses, doesn't matter how legit those excuses are.

Bump :)

I'm 27 and lost 125 pounds in 2012 using MFP. I have successfully kept the weight off for a year and a half now. Feel free to add me, I'm looking for more friends to encourage.

Oh yes, being in-patient can cause unwanted weight gain for sure.

Is your profile picture a picture of yourself? Is it current? If so, it doesn't look as if you need to lose weight, especially 22 pounds. :)

I tend to stay away from diets that limits foods that are suppose to be good for you, like fruits.

I had sleep apnea, snored like crazy, high blood pressure, achy knees, etc. All of it gone now. :D

Thanks to the Doctor! :)

It is scientifically proven that the aspartame in Diet Coke will cause you to grow a third arm.

I gained 95 pounds being on fast food. :)

If that was for me, you were close! I'm 11% :)

9%

I love chocolate covered potato chips! :D

I worked in a prison as a CO. Trust me, all these guys did was eat and work out. We had inmates who were 200-250 pounds of pure muscle, and CO's who were 250-350 pounds of pure fat. Good thing these guys decided to behave 99% of the time.

He had a lot to lose, being over 400 pounds, him losing that much in a year isn't so drastic.

Your kids are smoking pot! Lol, jk.

Deer chili, mmmmmmmm.

If you log your food faithfully, exercise, etc., you should lose. You don't have to do this 17 day diet, unless you really want to.
