  • Hey buddy. The fact you are out here seeking help and looking for friends tells me you are going to do just fine. Proud of you for realizing you are not living your "best self" and doing something about it. Each day is a new opportunity to get it right. Stay strong! Robert
  • Great job Ed! You are going to be very successful. Keep up the amazing work! I am down 198 with 60 to go. It can be done. 10 weeks ago I stared a similar program at my Y and it has been so much fun meeting new people and being laser focused. Greta accountability. Robert
  • Trying loosing 198 pounds and realizing you still have 60 to go, 90 if you are brutally honest with yourself! Thats me! Closer to the end than the start but weary of the journey. How do I cope? I reach out like I am doing now and make new friends, people with similar goals who inspire me. YOU inspire me. This is not an…

  • Hi Everyone! I am Robert from Lexington KY. Lost 85lbs 8 years ago with MFP and have kept it off. Now I am back(2 days strong) to lose another 50 lbs. Rejoined the Y, taking a weight Mgt class and seeing a personal trainer and nutritionist just like 8 years ago. The team is back together baby! Love all the positivity of…
  • I watched the video too. I though a lot of the info was on target and helpful but doing nothing but juice long term for me was not an option. A 3 day fast to detox is OK but unless you can juice for life then you don't need to do this. You should not do anything that you cant do every day for the rest of your life. I have…
  • Hi.I am Rob. Similar story here. Started last summer, lost 22 pounds but kinda plateaued. I had lost 50 poumds on my own before I found MFP. Everyone kept saying do more cardio. I did, 5 days a week. I built more muscle in my legs but not much weightloss still. Then my trainer said why don't you just cut the calories by…
  • Every big journey starts with that first mile. You can do this and you will do this as long as you want to do it. You cant do it for a doctor or a loved one. Although these people are well meaning when they urge us to make a change it wont be long lasting unless you want it to be. The biggest thing I have found on here is…
  • Fantastic! Thats what I like to hear. I found once they said I had it, everyone wanted me to be the "best diabetic" I could be. Very few in the medcial profession wanted to help me get healthy, they just wanted to "manage my diabetes. At first I was in denial. Then I tried to comply. I went to the support classes. OMG. A…
  • My trainer loves them, even got certified in them. Me, I find it irritating, haha. It just seems broing but I do it anyway.
  • Great perspective and quote Eric, thanks for the inspiration!
