Welcome! MFP has been a great tool for me. Best recommendation I can make -- based on my experience -- is track, track, track. It has kept me honest, and really put me in touch with the kinds (and quantities) of food that fit my weight loss goals. Good luck!

The more friends the better :-)

Friend request sent...can't ever have too many here :-)

I've lost & gained again too! Good luck:-)

I've gone through the same thing! I got to my goal weight before I turned thirty; now I'm 33, and I've gained it all back! Take advantage for your age...it melted off when I was younger, but I'm really fighting for it now. MFP has been a great tool for me. Good luck!

Looks like we have about the same amount to lose! Congrats on your progress so far:-)

I understand what you mean by addiction. For me, sugar is my drug, and the only way I can lose weight is to eliminate it. I know I can't have "just one" soda or cookie.

I'm finishing up grad school, in addition to a full-time day job, so I understand your situation! I take the stairs whenever possible at work -- it's not much, but I sit at a desk all day, so it's one of tthe few hings I can do.

Everyone feel free to add me also! We all need as much support as we can get!

Hi! Stress has a way of doing that -- it's horrible! Good luck going forward!

Getting rid of the junk food makes such a differece, doesn't it? That is the biggest struggle for me, but I know I have to do it to make this happen. And thanks for the idea about stair-climbing at a stadium. I live in a college town, so that's a really great workout idea!

Hi! I'm new here also, but fighting the same battle as you. I think it is totally possible for you to drop that kind of weight before going off to college. I lost 40 during the summer before college -- unfortunatley stress and quitting smoking have helped me to re-gain that weight (and more) now that I'm in my 30s. You…

Awesome! Congratulations!

Thanks for the advice! I've had yogurt and coffee the last two days for breakfast instead of a 32oz Coca-Cola. I'm sure my body is happy about that...the tough part is convincing my brain to feel the same :-)

I joined last week, but actually got started Monday after clearing most of the junk out of my kitchen. This seems like a great place to get support and motivation! Good luck to you!

Newbie here also...request sent!
