I'm so glad you have figured it out. I am writing because I have a similar issue, and have also figured out some things that are changing the way I think about this one. Although for me, I have been wavering between 430-470 pounds, so it's a bit of a different neighborhood, but the same issue. I will start to lose weight,…

Hey, and welcome! I'm at 436 today from a high of 467. I have yo-yo'd a LOT the last 2 years and have tried many paths - paleo, low carb, medifast, fasting, juicing....just about anything that the desperate try, I've tried. I enrolled in a diabetes prevention plan through my work insurance and am working on the idea that…

FITBIT!!!!!!

Hey...hope everyone comes back. I just found you. I have set goals for this week - 5 pounds lost, walking mon-fri once around the high school track, and getting my sleep and water.

I'm in that boat when I am losing. So I am trying to clean something when I am feeling that way. If my hands are grimy, it is less likely I will pick up. Also the standards: hot tea, water, coffee, movement, raw veggies....

I am finding that if I have some protein before I workout, I can control it after. Otherwise, I will eat what I just burned off.

300+ to lose. Add me

1 week, 11 pounds

I have tried diets where I was so restricted I was miserable. Right now I am trying to just be gentle with myself. I am making a lot of foods I used to love but aren't quite working for me anymore. Swelling from chinese food makes me hurt the next two days so I am making it for myself in ways I can enjoy it without pain.…

Me: 5 B: 17 I am just getting back on track. I have been on a solid track since Wednesday with low carbing.

I really enjoyed mine for the 3 months I had it before I lost it. Tiny little bugger....

I am in the process of losing 300 pounds. I carry most of my weight in my hips and butt, but 58 pounds in my whole body is loose and extremely jiggly. I can only assume that this will become more pronounced. I have known people who had lipo surgery and they wore a set of tight spandex leggings to encourage the skin to find…

me too, but get em down. I have found that raw veggies are easier to get down than cooked, especially canned, and I cut them big so I can eat them with my fingers.

I started the food plan at kaysheppard.com at 466.6 pounds on 1/8/13. This morning (day 13) I weighed 436.2 I have 3 large nutritious meals and a snack before bed.

Thanks for the post. I am in my second day of abstinence from addictive eating behaviors. I am at an all-time high with my weight and am dealing with the addiction process by going to AA meetings (not for alcohol, but for food addiction), have joined an online fellowship for food addiction and have a sponsor. I am eating a…

Congrats. It is hard to do. We made it a month and have backslidden, and it is hard to get back on the wagon. Family of 7, so, yes, especially using MFP you can know you are getting your protein, etc. It can work just fine with kids, even better than standard American fare for kids with allergies, ADHD, etc. Really wishing…

Sunday - Just need to get out there that my 40th was last week. I have been off plan for about a week and a half. I haven't gain a ton, YET. but I need to get my backside in gear and get back on track and FAST. My mom is refusing to eat again, which is frustrating as a caregiver. I am seriously involved right now in…

Any bread is going to have it - tortillas, too. Processed cereals tend to be high. Hot cereals tend to be ok (oatmeal, grits, etc). I use low sodium ezekial bread from the frozen healthy food section. dairy products tend to be high also - especially cheese. Be careful of anything in a can. I buy a box of tomatoes and make…

I agree that this is the biggest issue. The problem is safety, though. My youngest daughter is 9. Having been molested repeatedly as a young child, I don't feel safe letting my daughter out for long periods of time. My parents have no idea what happened to me while I was outside from time I got home from school till the…

Amazing. just absolutely amazing. Thanks for posting - you give me hope.

I stepped off a curb without having to think about where my feet were going.

my Halloween goal is 3s-vill - to be under 400 pounds.

My name is Marie. What is your.... Ultimate goal? 135 Favorite snack? healthy - fat free bran muffin. unhealthy - really greasy buttery popcorn Favorite way to exersice? - classes at my gym Favorite Holiday? - halloween and Christmas Halloween goal is 3s-ville. I want to get under 400 lbs.

Log your food, even when you are over. It keeps you honest with yourself about why you may not lose or might have a gain.

Sunday share= My name is Marie and I am going to be 40 the 12th. I am at 430 pounds and having a hard time getting past 426. That is the point where I start to regain to 430 or so. I am focusing on keeping around 1500 calories a day and am determined to get past it this time without the rebound. I am married with 4 kids…

I'll try.

iced tea - big time.

I am not losing weight eating my exercise calories. So I am shooting for 1500 regardless of exercise.
