Thanks for your response. I guess I wasn't clear in my original post. I agree with what you've said about diet changes. I'm just looking to see what others have experienced in terms of 1. controlling blood sugar; 2. side effects and 3. weight loss (of course)

Not yet. I see him in January.

Great job, but your tattoos disappeared?

That’s the funniest thing I’ve heard all day “reacquired”

Welcome back. I’ve been a looong time member here. I also lost 54 pounds about 6 years ago, which all came back, plus some. After so many diet attempts something clicked about one month ago. In the last month I’ve lost about 8 pounds. I did begin Contrave which is a prescription which affects the way you think about food.…

Hi everyone. While I’ve been a member here for a very long time I finally made the commitment this week to get serious. I’d like to loose 80 pounds.

Any updates? I’m thinking of trying Plexus

I can so relate! I’ve gained about 8 pounds!!!! I went out and bought a Fitbit to help motivate me to move more. Unfortunately I kicked it up from Best Buy (drop up delivery) on a very rainy day and the weather really hasn’t improved. I’m back here trying to get back on track.

I’m not quite at 275 but am close enough. My first goal is my pre-break up weight of 230. Yikes. In order to be accountable, What are you ladies doing? I’m making a conscious effort to cut out all white (sugar, bread) and walk at least 15 minutes 2x a week

So my weight has been up and down (but still less than when I started). A lot has to do with the sodium in the food I’ve eaten..but I am noticing a huge difference in the way clothes fit

I am on week 2and really loving it. No side effects and down about 6 pounds so far!! It really fell off the first week, then very slowly, but I find myself not thinking about food and getting fuller sooner. Good luck!

Hey, I started using Contrave on Tuesday. Very excited about what it is doing. Just like the poster above me I’m not thinking of food every often. Still only on one pill but no side effects. Has anyone kept taking only one pill and lost weight?

I have been using International Delight coffee creamer, Itilan Sweet Cream flavor. Sugar free and only 15 cal permserving

I have a question for those who suggested Misfit. I just looked on Amazon and while it looks cool is there a way to view your steps right on Misfit or do you have to sync it to another device to see the steps you have taken?

Thank you. 1.5 grams of fat. 1 g of satutrated.

No one?

thanks for the link. I did a "search" and didn't find anything!

Pumpkin is the big one for me. Never had a slice of pumpkin pie, never had a pumpkin muffin and certainly never tried a pumpkin flavored coffee. Also, calamari is a big Nope also. Its often ordered by friends when we go out and I admit it looks good, but once the word tentacle is mentioned I am alll set!

I have tomwake at 6am to get my son ready for high school. Then i have until 7:30 before i get my youngest one up. I use that time to head to the gym (5 minutes away)

I was thinking about the surgery, so I joined a Bariatric Weight Loss Group on Facebook, which is 99% full of people who have had the surgery. That group certainly made me change my mind. 90% of the people have complications. Hair (excessively) falling out; teeth falling out, lots of people develop ulcers, gallstones, they…

I share almost exactly the same story. I lost about 54 pounds 3 years ago and regained 40 or so back. I am currently 231 and hoping to lose 100

I just accepted your friend request, but cant seem to message you!

Me too. I have finally gotten back on track and have lost several pounds since June. I want to loose about 100 pounds more as well. But...does anyone else find that these posts get lost, you get too busy to check the community boards here, etc? How about we start "buddying up" and share our email or cell phone or via…

He is a VERY picky eater and I was curious if he was eating enough for his age. I normally track ,y own food

Welcome neighbor!! I am in north Kingstown. I work as a paralegal and massage therapist

I will begin logging again tomorrow. Even thought i wasnt logging my diet remains pretty much the same, except when ai am starving!

You will never regret working out, but you will,regret NOT working out

Hello MickeyMo. I am in the same boat. I lost 55 pounds two years ago, which 30 crept back on. I break it down to smaller goals. I would like to loose 10 pounds at a time. Despite my best efforts nothing has worked so,I began Belviq over the weekened. It is very expensive, and I havent seen results yet, but. I still have…

I am not sure what my post count is, but I visit mfp everday (just missed a day last week and broke my log on streak).. Anywho, last Friday my doctor prescribed Belviq for me. I began taking it Saturday. Saturday was a crazy day and I didnt eat much as I was running around hosting 15 ten year olds for my son's bday. But…

Now that you realize your problem it is easier to fix!! I would suggest eating breakfast later. Also are you snacking? Pick low-calorie snacks and subsitute one meal for a low calorie frozen dinner
