So much input! Thank you all, I really appreciate it. 🙂

I used it topically on my elbow and felt no difference whatsoever. I mainly curious about taking drops orally. Maybe it would be good for anxiety thus treating stress-eating like someone mentioned above which would be the main benefit for me.

I don't necessarily believe it does, just wondered what the argument was for it. Or honest opinions against it, maybe from someone who has used it and noticed or not noticed a difference.

I'm starting at 236 (like, today) and my goal is also 160. Let's do this!!

@ladipoet I'm 5'6". No, it isn't much and isn't anything I could keep up with. My hormone levels/metabolism are a bit off from the loss and I'm trying to get it straightened out now. It's probably not too bad, but I've got to figure out what I need to do to establish maintenance at a level I can work with. Because…

My intention is to use ketosis to lose weight. I've lost 100lbs first using weight watchers for a little bit then switched to just mfp and increased my activity. I'm at the point where 1200 or less and running at least two miles a day AND and an aerobic strength training session is the only thing that makes the scale move…

I'm back to myfitnesspal after taking a break and found I lost all my fitness pals.

Sleeping nekkid is the best!!

So glad I found your story. I started my lifestyle change in March of this year (2015) and I'm down 33 pounds so far. I have 100 pounds more to go (which seems like so much) and reading about your journey helps. If someone else can do it so can I.

That's funny 'cause that's exactly what I've been doin for the last 10 minutes or so. :D

Don't be discouraged!!! Keep going and don't give up! You're already on your way. Feel free to add me. I'm on a weight-loss journey too. Wouldn't you like to read your own success story? It can happen!

I'm 34 and walking 3+ miles a day. I also started taking karate classes, which sounds hilarious considering my age, current weight, and the fact that I've never taken any karate classes before. But ya'll don't know how much it has helped my overall wellness. I'm ready and determined to kick obesity's butt. Anyone who…

I'm serious this time too! I gained a bunch of weight back and have got to start over. But we can do it! It's all in the mindset. Good job working out. I swear it makes such a difference in helping to stay on track.

Oh my gosh you guys are amazing!!! Thanks :-)

I changed it to public, didn't realize it was private. Anyway, Maybe I am trying to lose to fast. I can try to eat up to my calorie goal for a while and see what results I get. Thanks!

good idea.. I'll go munch one some almonds.

You've made a great start! Keep it up and before you know it you'll be at your goal.

I weigh myself probably three times a day. I do it to keep myself focused on my weight-loss. It's like playing a numbers game, the number HAS to be smaller everyday or so, or else I'm not doing something right. I honestly feel like I need to do it. I know what works for me, and weighing myself a couple times a day really…
