Also starting school tomorrow!

Can always use more friends! Feel free to add : -) Working on getting back into the swing of things after a family issue so I can keep losing. Have a long way to go and anyone who wants to come along with me is more then welcome to.

Any and all pasta dishes. Love the stuff but it adds up SO fast!

For me, I get light headed, dizzy and have fainted once from not drinking enough water in a day. Depending on my activity level or how I have been drinking over the past few days, my body needs more then 1 liter per day.

I'll be going back to school next month and am getting into a habit of walking again (family death - exercise & eating right took a hike) and eating better before school starts up. I plan the meals, shop, and cook for our family. I even bake some kind of dessert once a week. Once the dessert is gone, oh well, no more…

I started at 400lbs and I doing things on the floor was no where near comfy so I changed it out for my bed because it wasn't so bad. I'm not a big fan of body weight exercises because there is too much of my body getting in the way so my main source of exercise was and still is walking. It was easy to do and doesn't cost…

I have only told my boyfriend and 3 friends. I don't like having it out there for the world to see. If I lose weight its my business. It's getting to the point where it shows so I was asked by my grandmother if I had lost weight and finally told her. I didn't want to because I knew what was coming. She was trying to talk…

You, and anyone else, can add me too :-)

I've had similar experience with my grandmother making her own comments from a young age. I didn't realize it then but as I grew up I began to understand more. I would always go with my grandmother to buy bathing suits for the summer and she would always make me try on the black or dark blue ones (because they make you…

I think it was around 20-25lbs when I first noticed. I didn't "see" it but felt it when I stepped on the scale. All of the sudden I noticed that I didn't have to push my thighs together when I stepped on my scale :laugh:

The most awkward comment for me was during a late night run to Wal-mart with my bf at the time. We didn't get a cart because all HE wanted was some mayo and a 2-liter of soda. I picked up the mayo and as we were heading to the soda some lady stopped us by saying "shouldn't you be getting the light mayo ? (since I was the…

My big goal is going to be training to walk/jog the color run by 2015 Of course keep losing weight, making a habit of working out more and more during a week, and try to fit more fruits and veggies into my diet. oh, and as I lose the weight start getting rid of the old clothes that make me feel like I'm a grandmother and…

Sending friend request :-) Iv'e got a long way to go also but it's okay because we got this!

Thanks guys :glasses:

Feel free to add me too; not just to you but to all! Have been on and off the site in the past but really want to lose more weight. Lost about 40 so far but still have over 100lbs to lose. Definitely set small goals to reach otherwise it can get overwhelming when your always looking at the big picture that seems so so far…

168:smile:

I had to see a GI specialist and a liver specialist in the last few months because they thought I had FLD or AIH. When I talked to the liver specialist she said if i did have FLD I would take vitamin E pills along with losing weight to help it. Not sure what the vitamin does to help it but maybe bring it up to your dr next…

I know this sounds stupid but I have a fear of doing things wrong. You know how when you were a little kid and you knew if you did something you would get in trouble because you did something wrong? Kind of like that; for the most part I don't want people to be mad at me. I also don't like spiders, birds or cats/kittens.…

Still have a long, long way to go but so far I love the confidence I have started to gain and just overall feeling better about myself. Oh, and knowing that I can actually do it is amazing.

I'm 23, anyone can add me if they want :-)

I always like doing it in the morning. I can be busy mid-day and when night comes I just want to relax and my bed likes to call my name so no matter how much I tell myself, "I'll do it tonight" I know the chances of that happening are slim to none. If I do it in the morning I can't make excuses that I'm tired or I'd rather…

I have had it for about 3 years now. When I was first diagnosed my dr said she had never seen TSH levels that high (348.2 on the blood test results) I figured out later that I was gaining about 10lbs a month before i got on medication for it. I have been on .175 mcg for a while now and just got upped to .200mcg. I think…

I'm 5'3 and when I first started getting serious about losing weight I was 401lbs. While I haven't been on MFP the whole time I can happy say I'm down 30lbs. It's been a long time to get that weight off but its been slow and steady. I tried the dvd workouts too and all they did was make me frustrated because I couldn't…

That's a good idea. I never thought of using the recipe section. Thanks :smile:

Yep I know the feeling! My bf is about 5'8 and weighs somewhere around 120lbs; he is a very stick-thin guy! I, on the other hand, I'm 5'3 and weigh tons more then him.
