This is beautiful. <3 And now I want one of those giant Reese's,

Hey there! I'm five foot nothin' and 206 pounds. I need to lose about 80, so feel free to add me. I'm almost halfway through CouchTo5K and just got back to heavy lifting after surgery, so I will take all the support I can get!

That looks AMAZING.

Right there with you. If only being patient was something I was good at!

I'm not a mother yet, but I hope to be soon. I'm getting started all over again, so I could use some support, too. :) Will send a friend request.

I, too, am in the position of starting over again. Older and heavier once again. But, I'm looking forward to adding exercise back into my routine. Yes, it's hard and miserable at first, but I remember vividly just how good I felt once I'd gotten into the habit before and I want to feel that good again. Start slow. Just…

I just recovered from a major abdominal surgery, also. My doctor suggested swimming and walking. Good luck to you!

Speechless. What a terrible thing to have to go through, but I admire the hell out of your spirit and determination. I wish you so much success. You can do this!

I had this for months and it was driving me insane. Turns out it was a sign of hypothyroidism. Once I got on the medication and balanced my hormone levels, it went away. Maybe have yours checked?

I'm starting week 3 on Monday. You can add me, if you'd like. I could use some inspiration, too. :)

I'm in one at work, too. To be honest, I wish I hadn't joined. I thought it would be a good motivator and get me headed back to the gym again (after I got this desk job and started losing all the progress I'd made)... and it has, but it's also dumped a boatload of extra pressure on me. My team was very focused on winning…

In, because I've never heard of this app, but I have an Android and I would also like something similar if it's out there.

I sent him a friend request, but he rejected it. :frown:

FR sent! Which part of Iowa? I get over to Council Bluffs on occasion.

I'm on a re-start, too, for pretty much the same reason. Wonderful new desk job, but so little moving during the day. We can do it, though!

Welcome! I just completed week one. Week two starts tomorrow. :) Good luck! You can do it!

Used one! Thanks so much. I've been looking forward to trying this! :flowerforyou:

Hi, I'm not a mom, but I've been in the "How did I let myself get here?" position before. I'm happy to help cheer you along, if you'd like. :)

Why not? I need some new motivation! SW: 221 (when I started MFP), 223 (overall starting weight) CW: 194 GW: 189 (by 10/31) Weigh in Dates: 10/1 - 194.2 10/8 - 10/15 - 10/22 - 10/28 - 10/31 - Total weight lost: Confession... I've actually never had anything pumpkin flavored.

Wow! You're, like, my twin! Sending FR now. :)

I like cookies. And bacon.

Did you mean TODAY, or....? Edit: You do know that crabs and fish are living animals, right?

I think that's got to be the answer. Six months at 600 calories a day? He'd be half dead by now.

And then... Then why the hell did you ask? You knew what people were going to say.

You look beautiful! Amazing work!

Congratulations! You look like you had a fantastic time!

I was JUST about to say this. Heck with it... I'm getting the popcorn now.
