I have been on for over two years at this point. I just checked my friends list after realizing I only see posts from a small handful. Then I saw that a good majority of them haven't even logged in for nearly two years! Sooooo, here I am :D

Lovely to see you here! I need more friends as I have just recently cleaned out the group who haven't logged on in two years! I have lost 90, gained back 25 of it. Yuck. Needing to get back off the 25 PLUS 20 more. So, I definitely have some work to take care of :)

This is the sole reason why I have been at a standstill for over one year now. I eat terribly 51 out of 52 weekends.

I was on my way for the gastric sleeve. Just days away from setting a surgery date. Last minute, my insurance denied my coverage because I had lost too much weight in the three months leading up to the procedure. It was a blessing. I proved to myself that I didn't need the surgery, just a plethora of education on food in…

I'd have to say that staying away from cream based sauces and fried/tempura anything. I had a vegetarian roll yesterday with a bowl of miso soup (pretty much just tasty broth) for right around 320 calories. If I had to say it, though, the majority of the calories came from the rice and bits of avocado. Cucumber and carrots…

Figured I'd reply because I had /have quite a bit bit to lose AND am 5'11". I was 301 at my noted heaviest. Currently, I bounce between 214-217 regularly. My absolute goal weight is 170-180, however, my short term goal is at least 200 lbs. I don't know what I'd do if I ever saw a "1" as the first number on the scale, but I…

People logging food without a food scale. Trying to use an egg white but part of the yolk fell in and you want to be as *accurate* as possible = 2/3 of one egg rounding. 1/2 c of milk is perfectly reasonable for cereal...but not when there is only 1/4 c of cereal. I got a bit obsessive about logging food like this and I've…

Hi there! I'd love to add you and share my successes/failures/motivations! I'm an aspiring psych student who just got their AA and have quite a bit of schooling ahead of me :) I'm 23, 5'11" SW: 301 CW: 221 GW: 170 I walk regularly, and have recently incorporated jogging into my routine as much as my poor knees can handle.…

I'm started at a much heavier weight than you and continue to still be quite a bit larger all over. I'm 5'11" and currently 224, but started at 301. So far, I like your attitude! I'd love to be around to help motivate :D

I have to take a daily pill for mine! Been on them since I was about 16 and I'm 23 now.

Just appreciating the Christian Slater intro!

I'm too embarrassed to just dump out all of my geek traits, but I can assure...geek runs in my blood. Looking for new friends, too. I delete anyone who hasn't been on in 3+ months. Just got done cleaning house today and I'd love to replenish with some schweet motivating geek-sters!

How adorable! I love it! I say ball of the shoulder. I think it would wrap nicely and stay the same no matter what weight gain or lost.

Fort Worth :D

YES! I've been noticing this recently, maybe within the last two weeks. I actually fell back into my couch when I stood up the other day. Lately, it's been happening a few seconds after I stand up. After I take a few steps my eyes start blacking out and then everything comes back into focus. I haven't been to the doctor…

I was at the doctor for an aching knee. I've been heavy my whole life, and as young as I am, I knew my weight was a huge factor. I've been in the mid-upper 200s most of my teen life, but I never hit 300. I weighed in at 301 in his office and was immediately ashamed for even being there for my knee pain. I knew the source…

scheduled for gastric sleeve soon. I'd like to know about your experience with the band!

lmfao

Met my guy online, went on a date, smitten beyond belief, then slept with him. It's been 2 1/2 years since. Not that I'm going to marry him or that the relationship is a complete success yet...Obviously I'm young still...I realize this. But, I don't regret my one-night-stand either way. I felt awful right after it happened…
-
Whew, after reading a lot of these...I'm noticing that I say A LOT of words that A LOT of people down right despise. I hate the term "Jelly" used for "jealous," although, I've caught myself about to say it a few times now. Why?!
-
I do this ALL the time. The only way I can even half-way explain it is that it is an outward verbal response saying, "I'm processing what you've just said and I'm about to reply." I cannot break the "huh" habit!
-
Something I had to tell myself recently. People with beautiful bodies work on their bodies ALL the time. I see hard bodies talk about their workouts consistently or how much protein they ate or when their next shake will be. They're at the gym a lot because they're thinking about their bodies a lot. I spent a lot of my…
-
It WILL help! :)
-
Started recently, too. Looking for people to keep me motivated while doing the same for others!
-
Looking for new people, too! I'd love to engage and start talking with several others about their own battles. I love interactive things like this!
-
Hi, pretty new here, too! Just saw Hashimoto"s and it piqued my interest. I was diagnosed when I was 15. Been on synthroid ever since. I can't tell if it makes things any more difficult, though...or am I just lazy? I'm looking for a support group and people to just swap stories with about my journey. I think I'm starting…
