The best advice I can give you is love yourself even at what you think is your worst, to become your best. If your self esteem is low, you won't have the drive to be consistent with anything you do. The second best advice is take it one day at time. Try making a list of all the things that you struggle with and come up…

My name is Aisha, and I've learned so much over the last 2 years. I'm married, I have a 4 year old and I'm enjoying life. It's not easy in the beginning of losing weight, because you're overwhelmed with so much information. It takes maybe 6 months to a year to find out what works for you, and after that it's all about…

Hi Lioness, I wish you the very best on your journey to healthy living. No matter what always believe in yourself in spite of set backs which are only obstacles that you will overcome. I believe in you and so do all those that reached out to you. Take it one day at a time; one pound at a time, to a better you! Add me if…

You look amazing! I'm happy for you!

I totally agree! I lost a lot of weight before MFP, and was looking for some additional help to fine tune my progress. I now need to work on my fitness routine. I know MFP community can give me the support, and motivation I'm looking for. MFP is a great tool to utilize for weight loss, and management, but my goal is to be…

Weight loss is definitely difficult as we age, but not impossible. I sent you a friend request. When I joined MFP in August. I had no friends for a long time so I can relate. I really didn't know where to start. I stay home with my little one, but stll struggled to fit working out in. I joined a gym last year and I lost…

I'm 35 and I'm loving it. I'm also the middle child.

WOW!!! You look great!

Congratulations! Continue to enjoy the journey to a better version of yourself. It's an Awesome feeling!!:)

Hi Everyone! I'm Aisha. I have three sons, and I've been married for 6 years. I have read through some of the post and can relate on so many levels. I've never struggled with my weight until I had my son three years ago. I did not know about support groups like this and learned a lot of things about weight loss through…

Congratulations!!!

That is Awesome! Congratulations!

Thanks!

Hi, I'm a city girl at heart, but love country living. I was born and raised in Philly, moved to DE, and later NJ. However, my journey landed me in Texas, and I love it. I know the group is for women that live in the Tri-State, and NYC area, but this group will be a great way to stay connected to home, and learn new…

I think it's hard to say what people are really feeling or thinking about when you decide to do something new. We all want positive feedback and encouragement, but people display these things differently. I've learned to voice any concerns directly but tactful. A lot of times it's miscommunication. My husband in the…

Hi, In the beginning when I was going to the gym and cutting back I felt like my husband should do the same, but he didn't. I did eat a little chips here and there, but I soon realized that this was my journey and not his. My strength was tied to my ability to control myself, and overcome temptations. It's funny looking…

I really like MFP, it's great tool to help you stay on track until you develop your own plan. I just discovered this group today, and hope to obtain support, and encouragement when needed. I love being home with my little one, but at times miss the hustle and bustle of working everyday. We can lose weight, and become…

Hi Everyone, My name is Aisha, and I'm a stay at home mom to a three year old boy name Micah. I have been going through a lot of changes over the last year since I stopped nursing. My hair started shedding like crazy, and I didn't recognize myself anymore. One mom said, "she put everyone else first" and I did the same. My…
