I'm in Oregon, :) Feel free to add me... :)

Great Post! So true in every way. It's a tool but a darn good one that has helped me do something I've never been able to to do in the past, stick to it! But the reason would be the great support and friendships I've made along the way. For me it's easier to stay on track with others watching me... Thanks for your post!

Not funny but recently I was talking to a guy that really was chasing me hard. He wanted me to friend him on Facebook. I have pictures of my weightloss on there so I really didn't want to be friends. He insisted and I finally gave in and sent a friend request but first I asked if he could handle my pictures. Oh yes he had…

You are awesome Brett! Enjoy the new smaller clothes my friend! I bet you look really handsome too!!

Way to go!! I am so close to Onederland!! I get right there and then go up again a few lbs... I know it's close so I will make it.. So good for you getting there.. I'm taking a picture of it when I hit it for sure!!

I've lost 191...my secret... Never give up, make everyday count!

Ooo I like this... I have lost 764!!!

I just hit 610... But I have friends who are at 700 to 800

53 F 5'7" 205 Size 14/16 ( I started in a size 30/32)

I am headed to the that myself. I am hoping for 160 and I am 5'7". Right now I am 205 and a size 14. Last time I was 160 I was a size 12 but that was 31 years ago. I hear sizes are different now than they were. Don't know since I have been in the sizes in the 20's and 30's for so long...

I always get a 6" double meat Turkey and pepper jack on italian herb and cheese. (toasted of course!)

How do i put my pictures on here?

I was dressed as a witch for Halloween and my EX-Husband started laughing and said.."You look like Elvira after 400 bad donuts"...... I was dressed for a party at work and had to go that way because I didn't have time to change again. It ruined my whole day.

I have lost ... an average adult man and a guinea pig! or maybe it's an average adult man holding a guinea pig... Cute!

I started at 393 lbs. I never saw myself that large till I saw myself in a picture. I now weigh 207 and I am not sure how I see myself if that makes sense. I don't see that heavy person but I do a double take when I see myself in the mirror now. I know I still have work to do but I don't feel like I look obese anymore.…

Amazing Story! Congrats! You are my new Hero!!!

I am 5'8" and 213. Right now I am a size 16 but heading to a 14 in about 10 lbs.

Your still Hugging... :)

Bake Sweet Potatoes, Chippins and Pop chips...Carrots never liked them before..Now I love the raw or cooked..

I did that from Dec 2010 to Dec 2011. But I had a lot to lose and still have a ways to go. Like was said before, just don't go below 1200 or your body goes into starvation. Very easy to gain it back if you do that. Congrats on the 25, and good luck. Just stay true to logging and exercise and you will do it!

Have gone from a Woman's size 32 to a misse's size 16 4 XL to a Large

Welcome and good luck on your journey! The support is awesome here...

Just for the record...you are ANYTHING but a mean, old, broken *kitten*-hat my friend! You are one of the nicest guys I have had pleasure to meet, And an inspiration!!!.... Well written my friend!

Welcome, you CAN do it even going out to eat. I eat very few meals at home and still lose. Good luck Mary

I agree, the minute he starts eating again, he will gain it back and more. Let him talk all he wants, you are doing it the right way..

Hi Everyone, I was invited to join and would like to be a part of your group. I don't have a lot of time right now to tell you about me as I am at work, I will add more later. I can tell you I have been on MFP for over a year. My starting weight was 393 lbs... I weigh 226 right now with a goal of 160...Only 66 away!!! Mary

Sweet NSV! Way to go!! Mary

Welcome and good luck on your journey! I couldn't have done this without my MFP family to encourage and believe in me. I am still on my journey and will be here for a very long time if not for the rest of my life. A lifestyle change is possible and everyone here keeps you going. Much Success!! Mary

Welcome, I wish you much success in your journey. Take it from somone who knows, you CAN do it! Mary :happy:
