Hi pcosfitnesswarrior, for me consistently logging food intake, exercise and weight has made a big difference for me. Focusing on the big picture also helped with me, as you'll see success and sometime less that successful results, but the realization that my excessive poundage was not an overnight occurrence, and cannot…

Excellent work on your progress! I know it's not been easy, I'm currently at a 73lbs lose, with 69 more pounds to go! YOU GOT THIS!

I thought I was the only one, thank you for sharing!

This one was kind of unexpected, but I ordered shoes in my usual wide from Amazon, however when I received them, they were much too big and had to order the normal width.

About a 65lbs. difference between the 2 photos.

NSV: Just directed by my doctor to cut back on one of my diabetic meds!

Went into my "someday" clothes today. Turns out someday was today.

The wife and I still like to play "slug bug" when we see a Volkswagen Beetle. This week she got a "slug bug" in and gave me a bruise!

About 45lbs difference between the 2, in the order of after first, then before - not looking back!

Looking to motivate and be motivated. Please feel free to add me :)

Today I finally found the courage to step on the scale after 4 weeks, not bad, lost .4 lbs, which was actually a surprise. Time to get serous about getting healthy!

Hello all, trying to seriously get back with MFP and looking for some new friends for support and motivation. Please feel free to add me. Thank you for your consideration :)

I know where you're coming from, been there as well. I'm coming back strong - we can do this. Please feel free to add me!

You may want to seek out the opinion of a medical professional to rule out a hormonal imbalance and to see what's there. If there's breast mass, you may need a medical procedure to have it removed. I wish you well in your journey for a more healthy you.

No, hypothyroidism is not related to weight, like type 2 diabetes.

58, down from 78 before MFP

My tight jeans are now my very baggy jeans

For some reason the mirror lies when it comes to weight loss - most likely because the change is very gradual every time you look at yourself. For a more dramatic affect, compare an old photo of your self at a heavier weight to what you look like minus 30 lbs. I guarantee, you'll see a difference.

Very inspiring, Rock On!

On track at 14 lbs :)

I think the real question is does MFP or WW work for you? After trying both, my preference is MFP, and so far lost 11 lbs (something about counting all calories versus translating food to points makes more sense to me). But hey, if WW or WW and MFP works for you, more power to you :)

I weigh in every week, and record everything - it keeps me honest, and on the path
