I simply love your story. I got a giggle out of it too. Great job with the negotiations!!

I am loving the positive feedback. We are all here for a reason. This site has helped me so much. Yet I have some friends who have tried and it didn't work for them. We are all different and unique individuals. Keep doing what your doing and be proud. I love what you had to say.

I am 5'6" my current weight is : 141.8 I eat between 1450-1600 per day.

I have huge food issues and quite picky about what I eat. Certainly I do not eat all junk food but I just can not eat vegetables or salads. I am only able to occasionally eat fruit. I have lost in total 50 pounds 43 since being on mfp. I love this site. I have had the weight off for several months now. I recently quit…

When I first started I thought I'd be so happy just losing 20 lbs. Once I lost those I went for another 10. I am now at 43 pounds lost since I joined MFP. Once I got at my ideal weight 4 weeks ago I quit smoking. Using MFP helped me to not gain weight during those early days of not smoking. I do love MFP. Good luck on your…

My journey started because of a health and wellness module at work. At first everyone who was doing this shared their weekly food journal so the people running the module could judge who was eating the healthiest food. I only shared one time because they picked apart what I was eating. I am a super picky eater. I kept with…

Sorry, today was my Wendy's kid meal day.

I wish you luck. I do not like to exercise so I only ride my stationary bike 5 min. in the AM and 5 min in the PM. I struggle with it every day but remind myself how very little time it is. By watching my calories on this site I am down 30lbs. I will send you a friend request.

I am a very picky eater. I only eat what I like and I do portion control and I am down 30 lbs. I just do not like vegetables or salads. Not too much of a fruit eater either. So Yes you can. But what exactly is healthy food?

I had identical twin girls in 1979. My stomach has suffered terribly. When I left to go to the hospital to give birth my stomach measured 5 feet around.

I am constantly on the scale. I am obsessed with it. Although the ones I am most interested in are the first thing in the morning weight and the last thing before bed weight. It is interesting how the weight changes. I love seeing my high weight so much lower than it use to be. Personal choice and I only add my weight to…

I used to drink a lot of diet soda. Then I was told it only makes some people crave more sugar because of the fake sugar in it so I went to regular soda. Now I am doing MFP and stopped the regular soda and I don't like the taste of the diet anymore. I drink more green tea with honey and much more water. The diet soda…

My daughter has BPD and is Bi-Polar. It is a difficult journey. I am honest with her. We have made a lot of progress. Many times I just allow her to be angry. I did also read the book "Walking on Eggshells" it helped. Also tons of patience and support. I love her and accept her as she is and she appreciates that from me.…

I had to buy a new smaller belt so I can make my clothes last longer. I am not going to buy in between clothes. Although I do love the 50% off racks at Target.

Batter oh yes I get that one. I also love cookie dough. Y-U-M-M-Y!!! :blushing:

When I began mfp I wanted to lose weight. What I learned when I began was that I was not eating enough calories. The first time I was under 1200 calories and it popped up I was under 1200 and that can put your body into starvation mode. It suggested I eat more. Geez. I found I had to force the extra calories. I am…

I love chips too. I miss chips so much. I have substituted with rice cakes. They come in many flavors that make them tasty and they have the crunch too. My favorites are spicy chili and ranch flavor (I was afraid but they are good.) A co-worker told me cinnaman apple were yummy too. I tried them and I liked them. And there…

I have been on here since early March. I only ride my exercise bike 2 times a day. 5 min in the morning and 5 min after work. I am really lazy. Watching the calories I put in my body has been a very awesome thing for me. And my lazy body is down 15 lbs. :bigsmile: Friend request me, I think it works better when you have…

Your story was not boring. I think you are amazing. Great job. I have just discovered MFP in the last 3 weeks and i love it. I have the same mental issues. No matter what I weigh I still see the same heavy body in the mirror. It would be a huge break through for me to see the reality.
