1200 cals because after being less than 10 pounds from my goal I'm now 50 pounds from my goal. Just felt like I needed to be strict with myself. And the Metamucuil is partly because I'm on meds that cause constipation and my body had a habit of holding on to "things". Also, I have a problem with being overly hungry all the…

Small, attainable goals. Not focusing on how far you have to go but 5, 10, 20 pounds goals!!!!

I plan to go horseback riding when I get to my goal weight!!! I was once told by a man that rented horses to ride on the beach, "we don't usually let people your size ride, just walk the horse". At my goal weight there will be no question about how much I weigh!!!!

You so totally ROCK!!!! Way to go!!!! What an inspiration you are!!!! And you are soooo right about real bodies here on MFP!!! Sometimes I feel like all I see are people who are worried about their bodyfat%!! Really?!?! I used to way 420 pounds, all I want is to not be considered obese anymore!!!!! Keep up the great…

It is all mental!! I have always said that losing weight is 90% mental and it really is. I've lost over 200 pounds and there are still days that I feel fat!! Am I?! Yes, to a point but it is more my brain telling me that I'm still 400+pounds!! Hang in there and just keep on keeping on and don't listen to the negative…

Awesome job!!!!! For me the first 100 were awesome but I have to tell you not as awesome as this last 100+!!!! Great job!!! And enjoy the next 100 coming off!!!! Trust me, this is really when all of your hard work is going to pay off!!!!! :bigsmile:

HOOOOT!!!!!! Again!!!!!

I used to eat them post workout but like people have said, high in carbs and quite a few calories but I personally liked them. I think there is a mint one that I really liked and my mom loves the carrot cake one but they seem to be hard to find. The other one that is good are the Luna Protein bars. Once again, I like the…

I am currently 204 pounds but hoping to not be here much longer but feel free to add me!! I've been in the 400's, 300's, now 200's and I'm looking forward to seeing for the first time in my adult life the 100's!!!! And would love support and motivation!!! :flowerforyou:

Hi all!!!! Not a lot of people post here but I feel compelled to share a little bit on my story in order to maybe help motivate someone else. You see as of today I am 18 pounds from my goal weight.

For me trying to lose weight the best thing I have done is have a cheat day!! I don't usually log my food on that day and I let myself have what I want but with that said I have noticed lately that I can't handle "cheating" as much as I used to. So, I'll still have my cheat day but in moderation. Ahhhh. the life of eating…

I am 5'9" and have been reading a lot of people's responses and wow a lot of these numbers seem so low to me!!! My starting weight was 420 pounds so anything starting with a 1 in front of it is going to be awesome and I have set my goal weight at 190 but also hope to have skin removal surgery by the end of the year. For me…
