That's a huge accomplishment! Definitely a success - just because you have more to lose doesn't negate what you've already done. 90 lbs is like a young teen! Poof! Gone from you forever! Great job! I can see lots of changes. :)

@DFW_Tom Thanks! I've never heard of some of those places. I just booked a quick weekend trip to Natural Falls Park in Oklahoma. Hopefully it'll make for a relaxing weekend. :)

@TxDesertFox I've heard great things about big bend. I’ll definitely make it out there. Hopefully this year. @Alinouveau2 I've always wanted to see the sequoias. CA is HUGE though. Someday!

Me me me! I'm 32, currently about 280lbs, focused on getting to 255 by the end of May. End goal somewhere around 170.

@meagle60 Are you using the phone app or the computer? I don't know about tutorial videos, but I can try to answer questions. On a computer, click the "food" tab, then "add food" under each meal. On the app, you can click "diary" at the bottom to add foods. @slumberbug Yes! Add me. I have trouble adding people from my…

I've been struggling. The last week or so I was gaining every day. I know why, but still discouraging. Today, I finally had a good drop again. I've gotta stay focused and get back down. I'm the same weight today that I was on the first. I'm going to stay on track for the next week to end February with some sort of loss! I…

That is amazing! Great work! I want to be like you when I grow up. Haha.

Is that the weighted hula hoop? I've seen it all over tiktok. I've thought of getting one, but I've wondered how much of an exercise they really are. Are they *actually* beneficial or is it just people losing weight from being more active/dieting in general?

I've done WW many times over the years. I recently switched to MFP. My observations: 1. WW over-inflates point values for "bad foods". For example, I had a brownie bite at applebees (300 calories) but it was about 19 points for WW. I only got 35 points for an entire day. Some people (depending on age, weight, gender, etc)…

Sending a friend request. I still have about 100 lbs to lose. Yeesh.

Holy cow. I love that trail mix. Good job resisting!

I'm always looking for new friends. I'll accept anyone who's supportive! :) <3

@coffeeandtruecrime I have a lot of the same problems. I'm currently about 275 lbs at 5'4''. I have been practicing self care, self love, AND trying to become healthier. Flying gives me terrible anxiety just for being able to fit. Recently, I paid $40 for priority boarding just so I didn't have to walk down a long aisle of…

@kissingalyssa and @Mazzadan I sent you a request, I think. I thought I responded to this already, sorry. You've got this! @mermaidnj I'm all about the community. I used to have a decent following on Instagram - surrounded myself with people who were documenting their journeys. I don't want to do that anymore, but I miss a…

I'm planning to lose about 120-140 lbs from my highest (300). I still have a long ways to go. CW: 277. Sounds like similar paths - career change, COVID, divorce. I definitely also want AT LEAST a boob job when I reach goal, but who knows how I'd pay for all of this. I sent you a friend request. Good luck with your journey!…

@bruggles5 Makes sense. I'm definitely learning more here than I ever have.

I'd accept. :) Always looking to surround myself with like-minded people.

@Woolhope exactly! I did so much yo-yoing on WW. I think it’s because I was so restricted. But they make you think you’re free to eat whatever! @Jersey_Boy i think I sent you a friend request. Im still learning the app. @jinstokes accepted! Thanks. It definitely feels good. I’m ready to start seeing changes physically…

@SModa61 I don't mean to be nosey, but could you explain how/what it looks like to live in 3 states? My boyfriend is from Louisiana and moved here (Missouri) this year. I'm looking into options for what our future looks like. More than likely Missouri will stay home. But it would be amazing if we could eventually have two…

Well I made it through the weekend... 2 lbs heavier. I really enjoyed date day on Saturday. I was under calories after a 4 mile hike, but that chicken fried chicken still showed up on the scale. It was worth it. This is a lifestyle change - so moderation. I am eating much better overall. I'm not going to beat myself up for…

That's great! Good work!
