5'11, when I was 375 a tight 28 I haven't bought new pants since I’ve lost weight BUT now that I’m at 330 I can take those off without unbuttoning them :)

DON'T GIVE UP!! :) I have lost and gained the same weight my whole life... I’ve always been the "big girl" and "the fat one"..... but I’ve just had to completely overhaul my way of thinking... this isn't a "diet" I’ve changed my whole attitude with food. I don't deny myself but I just watch the portions. I thought I would…

YAY!! great work!! Keep it up!!

I was doing TurboFire at home and my pants are so loose now they fell down :) Glad I was the only one home! Now I get an excuse to go shopping!

it's called Photoshop and Spanx.... like people have said they are in it to make the clothes look as good as possible...

already lots of great suggestions and I’m now craving a bagel! :) I would go with guacamole and turkey to make a little sandwich, Honey, and Goat cheese sounds amazing! they have whipped PB now and they are super yummy and not terrible for you! Good luck and congrats for stepping out of your comfort zone and getting…

When I started in June I was at my highest weight (375) since then I’ve lost 44 pounds and people have only started to make comments... and even now it’s from my boyfriend, my trainer and a few people at work who know I’m working out and trying to lose weight. I can really tell in my clothes but since I see myself every…

Try getting in the pool with low steps or easy access! It is probably your best bet, it reduces stress on the joints and takes pressure off your knees :) I’ve seen people at the same weight and same knee/hip conditions work wonders in the pool!! Good luck!

I had a RAIL thin OBGYN ALWAYS comment on my weight, she's never been heavy and has no idea how it feels.... always made me feel like less of a person and even after I LOST 30 pounds, went in for a checkup she still made the comment about losing weight.. when I told her I had already lost 30 pounds she said "oh wow.. you…

THS!!!^^^^^ I don't think they are trying to be mean... I agree that it’s hard to find motivation outside of yourself... I had to hit rock bottom in order to say "enough is enough and I’m not going to take it anymore!!" There was no one telling me to work out twice a day there was just me telling me to get my fat but up…

HI!! Welcome to the group!! I started out in June at my highest weight... 375... since then I've lost 40 pounds with MFP and the support here!! My goal is to be around 170-150 range! Feel free to add me :) and keep up the great work!!! Lindsey

No.... just No.....

I’m having the same issue, I’ve lost 37 pounds in a little over 2 months but suddenly stopped losing, it’s been about a week and a half with no change! I am either retaining water or have hit a Plateau... I hope it’s just water retention and will see the scale start to move again soon. Good Luck!!

Feel free to add me :) im on here everyday!! Good luck!!

I've lost 37 pounds since June 25th.... I’ve had a few people say they can tell but not many.... I can tell a bit in my clothes BUT when I Look at myself in the mirror I can't see any changes :(

I LOVE THAT!! Positive Yardage!! Im a huge football fan and that is NOW going into my cubical at work!!! I loved your story, its so similar to mine, i watched my mom on every diet known to man... and when I was old enough I did them with her... she has been able to keep most of it off... but i'm another story... Feel free…

This!! Along with getting new clothes, being able to climb stairs and NOT get winded, not feel like everyone is looking at the "big girl".... there are SO many things!!

I just started over for the last time in June. Since then I’ve lost 37 pounds :) I know after a death in the family and all the stress It’s hard to get back into gear but it can be done :) I’m just fed up of being the fat one and all my joints hurting... You have to want it bad enough to make a change :) You can do it!!…

My starting weight was 375, my current weight is 337. I've lost 37 pounds so far :) My first goal was to lose 10% of my starting weight and i just accomplished that, my next goal is to get out of the 300's! I would like to weigh 150 BUT since I’m 5'11 that might be to small... we'll see when I get closer to my goal how I…

I love the elliptical machine. Low impact on my knee's and ankles! :) builds up a great sweat too!! :) good luck hope the knee feels better!! Feel free to add me too! :)

The trainer has me working with free weights and machines. We also so some circuit training that includes some cardio. I like the weight training, if you go to a gym ask someone who works there to show you how they work! :)

Hi everyone!! My name is Lindsey, I’m 29, 5'11, starting weight was 375. I have been a member of MFP in the past but it didn't stick. I’m back after reaching that horrible number and I’m already down 34lbs since June 25!! I log every day and try to work out at least 5 days a week! My goal weight is about 150 :) Feel free…

I don’t' think I can pin it on one thing.... I have always been overweight... I would lose some then gain it back plus 20... I had always had this delusion that I would never get over 350... I got on the scale and was at 350 a year ago. I started working out and lost 25... Then I broke my leg and arm. Even after the Dr.…

THIS!!!

I have cut way back on my alcohol intake, I was drinking at least a glass of wine or a beer every night. Now I have to make sure its within my calories for the day and I make sure to work out extra to make up for it. I only drink on the weekends now or special occasions and then I limit myself to 2. Good luck!

Welcome aboard!! I need to lose about 200lbs.. I started out at 375 and when I saw that number I cried.. I’m only 29 years old but I never go out and do anything because of my weight! I have tried every diet out there and have ALWAYS given up. I have been using MFP for a while and have lost 31 lbs. since June 25th! I can't…

I love the elliptical machine. Its low impact on my knees and not as harsh as the treadmill. Just take it slow at first, I’ve built up to where I can do 40 minutes on level 7 :)

That diet sounds amazing! What website is that diet on?!?! All Jokes aside you are 100% correct!
