I'm so very sorry for your loss; I know the pain of losing a parent AND moving to Florida....you are such an inspiration. I've been such a slacker since the pandemic ~ used to walk 2 miles every day, but not in this heat and humidity, ugh. Thanks to you, I just dusted off my exercise bike and vow to ride it every day for…

421 day streak - food logging every day

Great loss! Love your smile!

Looks wonderful! The only candy I make is fudge at Christmastime.

Congrats to you; you look AMAZING and SO MUCH YOUNGER! WOW!!!!

Sent you a FR....welcome back! I log every day -- slow going, but that's better than gaining and being out of control like I was before.

Very well stated! I had a long talk with my doctor about this, and we decided I am not going to give up anything. Instead, I will make better choices 95% of the time, stick to my calorie counting and exercise plan and the weight will eventually come off. I have to remember that I didn't gain it overnight, and I don't…

AWESOME!!!!!! I can see a big difference ~ and you look GREAT!!!

I actually like logging; makes me feel like I've accomplished something at the end of the day. My goal is to log every single day from here until next Christmas and see how much weight I've lost and if my health isn't a whole lot better by then -- we'll see! :smile:

GREAT JOB!!!!!!! You look so much younger now, but more importantly, you look like you feel FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!

You're a very strong person and such an inspiration! I realized while reading your story that I honestly have NOTHING to compalin about.....EVER. You look wonderful and you are amazing! Thanks so much for sharing your story and pictures with us!

Sent you a friend request....I'm "new" here, too, even though it says I've been here almost a year; I had issues....ahem....anyway, I feel like I'm back on track now and ready to do this!

Your post sounds like my story EXACTLY......OMG......I have dealt with food issues all my life. FINALLY feel like I can do this FOR MYSELF because I want to. YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!!!!!! You have inspired me soooooo much and I thank you for that and wish you well as you continue on your journey. You should be very proud of…

WAY TO GO!!!! I can see a big difference in your face, neck, arms, stomach, and back....AMAZING!!! Just IMAGINE what you'll look like in a year -- you've totally got this, girl!!!!

Feel free to add me; I just started over this week after being diagnosed "pre-diabetic" --- high triglycerides, high cholesterol -- so I'm back here, fighting the good fight and planning to WIN this time around!

CONGRATULATIONS and WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! You look GREAT!!!!!!!!! What an inspiration; love the special effects in your before and after pics....amazing. Keep up the great work!

Thanks again, everyone -- I'm feeling a lot more confident after researching a lot this afternoon. The doctor gave me a list of foods to avoid and foods that are okay along with servings, and that combined with my research will help a lot, I think. To all of you who replied, thanks a bunch -- just needed to vent a little…

Thanks everyone -- I'm going to do all I can to get this weight off. Maybe she wants me to do low carbs for a while since my TG's are sooooooo high. I don't know, it's all a bit overwhelming to me at the moment, it was a lot to take in today. Tomorrow is a new day and I'm planning to start it off with a walk around the…

I'm 57 -- just starting today -- add me :-)

You look great -- congrats to you!

CONGRATULATIONS! What an accomplishment! You look GREAT!

Took it for a month, lost 15 lbs -- had energy to burn, could not sleep, hyper all the time -- not good at all. As soon as I stopped taking it, gained all the weight back plus more. Ruined my metabolism and not sure I will ever be able to lose the weight that I need to lose. BE CAREFUL. I wasn't aware that there were any…

Not a bit pathetic -- you're awesome!!!

Looking great! Keep up the good work! :flowerforyou:

WELL DONE!!!!! You look FABULOUS!!!!!! I can tell that you FEEL as good as you look.....your face just shines with happiness! What an inspiration you are!!!!

Thanks, I'll try it!

Add me, too! I'm 57 and seriously need to get SERIOUS about this weight loss thing. It's soooooooo hard to do -- I need friends who are in the same boat that I'm in.

AMAZING.......GREAT JOB!!!!!!!

Good job! I can definitely see a difference!

What an inspiring story; I love it! You look AMAZING!!!
