I have been on here and off again many times. I just started THIS journey a week ago. I REALLY want this to be a life long weight loss this time around.

I’m very interested!!

I’m back to MFP after losing and gaining several times. I’d like to be included in this!!

Proud that I showed restraint at a funeral luncheon (passed on dessert!).

Way to go, MJ! It is such an awesome feeling to not only feel but see the weight come off, especially when that smaller pants size validates what you have accomplished! Keep going on your journey; you are an inspiration : )

You go! I have pizza at least once a week, and am losing weight : ) I don't choose to have pizza everyday, as I love variety, but I know that I can eat anything I chose and still lose weight by making good and balanced choices. Logging and being purposeful and accountable about my food choices and my activity is so…

I am 5'1" and have lost 24 lbs. so far, with at least 56 more to go! I am highly motivated and loving MFP!

You are amazing! Thanks for your inspiration and motivation, and keep up the great work!

I have cut back on diet sodas. ( I used to have an average of 3 or 4 a day; now I try to only have one, if any) I find that I am not as hungry as I used to be. I am not sure how much the reduction in diet soda has to do with it, but I need all the help I can get!

Funny!!

You look amazing! Keep up the journey. Congratulations!

I want to lose 6 more lbs. this coming month. Keep exercising despite the cold crummy weather! Add more steps every where! :yawn:

I have surpassed my goal and it isn' t even Sept. 30 yet! Weight on Sept. 21 weigh in : 197!

Go Mississippi State Bulldogs!!

Thank you for sharing your amazing journey! It has been hard for me to say goodbye to the junk food, but I know I HAVE to be accountable for my own health. Keep up the fantastic job you are doing. You will never regret it!

I actually was posting this for someone who replied to your post : ( You look awesome! Congratulations for hanging in there and getting through the relapses into old habits!!

You can do it! Just take it one day, one step at a time. Look at it as a life change, not just a diet!

Count me in! SW: 206.2 (as of Aug 24) Goal for September 30: 199 Personal challenge: Cook more meals at home, walk even if the weather isn' t perfect (go to the mall walk)

Originally the Mississippi Gulf Coast, now near Seattle, Wa

Sleep study is a very good idea! I had one done although I was SURE I didn't have sleep apnea. Turns out I was having 61 episodes per hour of rousing myself from sleep!! I am now on a cpap machine, and although the results were not overnight, I have an amazing amount of energy during the day.

HI! I just joined a couple of days ago. I have battled with my weight most of my adult life. My knees are starting to give me real problems, and I know where this is heading if I don't change my bad habits now! ( my mom had one knee replacement in October and I don't want to have to go through that!) I am 53, and I need…
