Wow, wow and wow! Those pictures are so helpful in truly celebrating what you have accomplished. You have taken charge of your health, your body and your soul by taking care of yourself. The power of determination and will power is breathtaking! Good for you! You have inspired me to do the same. I am going to take photos…

Hi there, I am sure it is difficult when you LOVE food and being surrounded by good food (and not so good food) in the company of your favourite people...one of the tricks I have been using (besides MFP) is to tell as many people as possible in my social circles and family about my weight loss goals.

Hello everyone, I am 31, a busy new mom, and need to lose 40 lbs. Just started MFP yesterday, but feeling good about it. Feel free to add me...I love to problem-solve and give advice on just about anything. :) Have a great day everyone. And remember to log EVERYTHING!

Hello fellow Canadian! I recently joined this site (my second day) and I congratulate you for having the dedication to improve your health while facing other obstacles!! I have 40 pounds of pregnancy weight to lose (well, some is baby weight, and the rest is extra weight I had from before!!). I have lost weight…
