Thank you for sharing your story

welcome back this time around was my 5th attempt and so far I seem to be doing Ok with logging in daily. welcome back and good luck :)

I lost so far 87 and I have another 110 left to lose feel free to add me

welcome and good luck feel free to add me.

Hopefully everything will go well. Im sorry that you got this piece of news now.

Its hard and at times you will feel like you cant do it. I am 2.5 weeks post op and Im still having a difficult time with not drinking right before and after you eat. as long as you move slowly and don't try to do to many things at once it should go fine. Good luck

congrats on the new baby grand daughter

I agree with the above quote a lot of people say its all self control. You can have all the self control in the world and lose weight but the second you stop it can all go down hill unless you figure out the why. therapy works really well or there are meetings like AA just for people with eating problems called OA. it…

I know what you are going through. I am in the same boat and im terrified of losing the one thing that I was able to excuse my self as to why I im not going out. I just blame it on the fat and weight instead of turning inwards to face my demons and work through them. feel free to add me. Im writing a personal blog that I…

Please add me I have the same problem I just came back from 5 weeks of denial and 14 pounds heavier. I know what that is like please feel free to add me: :wink:

Only you yourself know for sure if this is a relationship worth saving. from someone who went through what you did (emotionally draining relationship) the best thing for me was to end it. my now husband of 4.5 years is amazing. his words ( I don't care what you weigh I love you for you however I want you to lose this…

thanks for the words of encouragment

take care and be careful. you could be going through sugar withdrawal. slow and easy does the trick

Hey its not like that sometimes receiving is what you need and not always do you have to respond. we are here if you need us

I Started eating Baked Potato chips its a great Alternative its crunchy and tastes pretty good.

Hi I am also In the process as well I just started my 6 months of weight management under My doctor I am also going for the sleeve please feel free to add me I tried to find people before but nobody has responded. I hope to have the surgery in March around my daughters first birthday.

I am in the same boat as you I had the same problem with Family and I am also 26 feel free to add me I restarted as of last Tuesday

I know the feeling Im in the same place you are right now I am working on getting the eating under control going to the gym and walking is killing my knees so im waiting a few weeks to go back feel free to add me

feel free to add me I have 198 pounds to lose but we can support each other

kick her and kick her hard my sister said to me oh you will never get down to 150 pounds and I wanted to kill her. chances are she is just jelous

I know what your going through I lost a baby at 11 weeks in December 2011. Its hard dealing with the loss of a baby and knowing which way to go is key. I waited 2 months on the recommendation of the doctor and tried to lose weight. when I got pregnant again It took every ounce of will not to gain 60 pounds I only gained 30…

The lap band is a tool and it is only effective if you follow a healthy diet and weight loss. I have a meeting next Friday with a bariatric doctor to go over the options. I know the decision is not easy. I have people in my family who have done it and not lost much and even gained weight why because they thought it would…

I feel for you I am in the same boat as you and its very frustrating feel free to add me I would love the support

when ever someone in my family makes a comment like that I go to the gym and work on the punching bags and picture him in the center of the bag and I just keep hitting making sure I see their face right there. It gets the anger and hurt out and gives a great endorphin kick

if your eating the right amount of calories and eating the right type of food: you can always check sodium levels which causes water retention. it might help you to check out your thyroid and make sure that is working properly. a lot of people tend to develop thyroid problems after having a child.

welcome to MFP. The only advice I feel confident in giving is take it one day at a time and just because you slip for one day or even a week should not be considered a failure and do not give up. there will be bad days good days bad weigh in's and good ones. take it one day at a time and know that the weight did not come…

I did very well on the point and core but the points plus and 360 was not working out at all.

The amount of protein you would get is negligible (quoting a nutritionist) I have tried the powdered peanut butter you get the protein with out the unhealthy oils and sugar it takes getting used to but it is good.
