Ditto for me, honestly. That's the biggest part. But the underlying issue goes all the way back to my childhood with sexual abuse. Food is an addiction just like everything else and science is proving that. It doesn't excuse my laziness or emotional swings, but I definitely fell into that roller coaster of feeling sorry…

Ok... well I've tried online dating before and still have a profile up. I know quite a few people who have met their spouses online and stayed together. That was just a side note, since you are only talking to this guy. With that said... I have AWFUL experiences with men. Never had a single good relationship and its…

What everyone else said. No weight is perfect for everyone. I'm a larger framed person and I just saw a dietitian and she said my perfect weight would be between 136 and 126 and I personally think this is too low. You do need to get some professional help. There's nothing wrong with this. With anything, binge eating,…

Awesome!! Good job! I havent done it every day and Ive been slacking but I'm gonna start every day now again! You loo

I've only been at this for a little over a month but I know exactly what you mean by this. I encourage you to find out what the mental issues are (if you don't know already) and work on those while changing your eating. When I say mental issues I don't mean that you are crazy or bipolar or anything like that..but for those…

Hey Becky! :) Welcome to MFP. Everyone needs support and this is a great place to get it. There are so many determined, dedicated and motivating people here.

Ciara would be my #1 choice for sure. Her body is AMAZING. Beyonce is #2 but only by a little. I like that her body is more shapely and curvy and she's still looking absolutely gorgeous!

It seems like these negative posts lately are just people who want attention or who want to complain and don't care how they sound. Do I get the question? Yes. I've been overweight my whole life. Now I'm morbidly obese. But from a psychological standpoint, MANY (not ALL) people who are overweight have an addiction or…

I had 2 cups of mixed greens with low fat cheese and olives, and then an orange. It was delicious! lol Wish I had some mushrooms onions to put in it though

Honestly if youre recovering from an eating disorder then you should think about what you say before you say it. Overeating for some is an addiction that is coupled with lack of motivation and laziness. Any disorder or addiction usually has a comorbid disorderassociated . Now that doesn't mean it gives anyone the excuse to…

Amen

Glad that youre here! Welcome :) there are so many great people here.

In my opinion that's great progress! It's obvious that the more you weigh the faster you COULD lose initially. I'm not sure what other people will have to say but 8-9 inches in a month and the number on the scale dropping is an awesome indicator that you're doing something right! Keep it up!! (And let me add that I would…

Bravo!! And happy new year to you as well :)

Great job and, as everyone else says, you look awesome! :) Congrats on the success and maintaning (cant spell)

Wow, you look amazing, great job!!

That's great!! Especially on those pull ups (couldnt do one to save my life LOL) CONGRATS on all your hard work and success, I bet you're so proud of yourself! :)

Awww thats such a great thing! I'm so happy for u!

I can definitely see the change, way to go!!! That's great!

Wow you look great!! Congrats! :) That is huge progress

Thanks guys... most of the stuff you've said is what I'd say to someone but sometimes i just need someone else to tell me for it to get through my head. I'm still a little down but not as bad. Thanks for the encouragement :)

I'm from iowa. (I consider that pretty useless LOL)
