Yes, yes, yes! Eat whatever you want, but less of it! It's taken me years and years and years to implement this mindset. I will never stop eating cheese, bread, or wine, but I don't have to eat a block of cheese, a loaf of bread, and a bottle of wine in one sitting. :)

Me too. Although anything less than what I am now would also be good.

Mine does but only because she has seen my weight go up so much over the years. She frames it in a way that's not offending, but more like, if you don't stop gaining weight you're going to have these health problems. I'm also pre-diabetic. I think if you're otherwise healthy, they don't need to discuss it, but when you…

Your fitbit will sync with MFP and you'll see you've 'earned' calories for your exercise. I never log exercise anymore, since the fitbit seems to give me more than enough credit for it.

Your family must be so proud of you! Great job!

I looked into breast reduction surgery several years ago, and the surgeon would not even consult with me until I was at a healthy weight (BMI). They asked me my height and weight on the phone when I called and said that I need to lose about 20 lbs before he would do the surgery. Sadly I've gained a ton since then and they…

You look amazing! Congratulations on your loss!

I love that you're smiling in your Before pictures. Great work!!

Why is your goal weight in the same range you were in when you admittedly had an eating disorder?

Holy. Moly. Your stomach is flat as a board. Amazing work! (*)

It depends on the person. Many people do not have emotional/psychological issues surrounding food. For those of us who do, I absolutely believe there are trigger foods and the best way to deal with it, is to keep them out of sight and out of reach. It takes a lot of work and trial and effort to break the habit of allowing…

O.M.G. Congratulations!! You must feel amazing!

Great job!!! And your dress is gorgeous!!!

It depends on what it is. I refuse to compromise on cheese. Lowfat cheese is gross. Also, ice cream and sweets in general. If I'm splurging on dessert I want the real thing. :) But I do go with sugar substitutes in my coffee, lower sugar instant oatmeal, lighter salad dressings, and some things like that. We use real…

Amazing!!!

Probably ten pounds at a time. Since I had kids (NOT using that as an excuse, just a reference for time), I gained about 10 pounds a year. It's been 7 years and, go figure, I need to lose 70 pounds! Obviously it would have been easier to get on it after the first ten, but it just doesn't seem like a big deal at that point.…

Two great achievements! Way to go!!

Agreed. The other day there was a young woman on a leg press machine who was checking her phone and sat there for at least 10 minutes. I wish there was a no phone policy, but I guess too many people use them to listen to music so it wouldn't be practical to enforce.

Incredible! Your story is one of the most inspiring I've read on MFP. Congratulations to you for turning your life around and being an inspiration to your kids and so many others!!!

I can definitely see the difference! Way to go!!
