Max and Mary....it's an animated, from Austrailia, I think 2008? true story. beautiful.

congratulations on your hard work, you look great. It's easier to pop someone else's bubble than to blow up your own.

I would love a new friend! I am proud of you for not waiting till after Easter. The best time to start is 20 years ago, the next best time is now! We can support each other! And Happy Easter, I do celebrate it!!

hello! Add me if you like! I am on daily, love the community, and we can support each other!

Fear is the first word that caught my eye. Deal with the fear, and you will do fine. A counselor may or may not help with this. Depends on your counselor. "It's none of your business what someone else thinks or says about you."

wow! that's an accomplishment, to lose it twice before. Maintaining is a journey all in itself. I have found MFP to be extremely helpful and easy to use. The community and databases are a godsend! I wish you well on your journey! :smile:

thanks for the post....good attitude, no wonder you are doing so well!

You can love someone and still recognize that you are rocking their boat. It's easier for some people to pop your balloon than to blow up their own. Her insecurity or conscious, may be nudging her. Doesn't make her a bad person. You will likely find this kind of behavior in others you interact with on a regular basis as…

So many...one is "Choose your pain."

I heard "What am I going to do if you are trying to cut down? I like to eat too much." He didn't have a weight problem, but when I was minding my food intake, it was threatening to him because he liked to cook, bake, and eat, and liked his partner to eat what he cooked and baked, and that was me...I put on pounds while we…

You have already started by acknowledging and admitting it! Good for you!! Take a look at the grieving process and see if your relationship with food, and your desire to stop comfort eating might parallel a loss, I suspect it might. Denial, sadness, anger, bargaining, etc... But the medicine will eventually become the…

Haha--an average 2-year old! :happy:

Glad you shared. Hang in there---- just think, when April comes, you will be 2 months older regardless of whta you do. Might as well make it count. And like that one person said, if it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you. You have the power to do this.

Add me! I love words!!

Where does all the weight go when millions of people are losing hundreds of millions of pounds -- tell me, where does it all go?

Yay!! You are on the right track! MFP is an awesome tool. For me, it has been a godsend! Add me if you like. i am on daily and will check in on you from time to time. Good health to you!

^^^ This ^^^ Our bodies are amazing machines, but just like an automobile, need fuel. Food=good Our Creator (who I call God) gave us a plethoria of foods that are absolutely perfect for fueling our bodies, cleaning them out, giving us energy, delighting our brains' pleasure centers, tickling our tast buds, etc. etc. etc.…

I love this question...if they are just passing through, I just try to be polite. If they are staying for a time, or if I am wanting them to, then humbleness, curiousity, honesty, integrity, and commonality, oh, and intelligence (or at least a willingness to learn..back to the humbleness and curiosity) :happy:

that is a good quesiton! I am not at goal yet, but getting close. I am surprised how much more pleasant I am to be around. And also, I realized I was kind of emotionally tied to my extra weight. I am still processing that.

You are doing awesome! They are taking notice, and the positive changes in you are rocking their boats. Keep doing what you are doing. How close in proximity are you--do you share a cubicle? ride in a work vehicle or car pool? work together on projects? My co-workers have not been very supportive, but they haven't tried to…

vegetables, fruits, apples, oatmeal, lots of food have fiber added--like yogurts, those fiber bars are really good too.

that is really nice! Thank you!!! :flowerforyou:

Thank you for your service to our country. And thank you to your family for their service as a family of a military person. God bless you all, and the USA! Good health on your journey to health!

yes, I will try this one, maybe I will add cinnamon or a little peanutbutter. :smile:

I have a weird sense of humor, but I enjoy it.
