Thanks for the support everyone. Was put on heart medication on Friday so hopefully that will help with the rapid heart rate and palpation I have been having. I was able to do yard work today so I am thrilled about that. It is therapeutic for me. If anyone would like to befriend me I would greatly appreciate the support…

Thanks everyone for your support. I went out and bought a blender and it is helping. Now I make nutrient shakes twice a day and a healthy meal. I had all the right foods but couldn't seem to make the food (some days are just that bad). Now if I just throw it in the blender there is no cooking and chopping and cleaning up.…

Add me. I am on just about every day. Had a bit of a wobble about 3 weeks ago and I am always looking for people to support and hear me out as well.

I am on a long journey here. Making a lifestyle change and see that I will probably be here for years. I look forward to seeing everyones triumphs and it motivates me to do better. I have invested in a pedometer, do strength exercises everyday and do my best to get cardio in at least 4 days a week. I hadn't worked out in…

I can tell you that it is truly fantastic. I helps when you are feeling lazy and you start seeing the calories burned by everyone. For me it is a great motivator. I love sharing my goals and I have been more active since I started talking. I have lost almost 30lbs since I started logging everyday and I am not on a diet. I…

Just started working out on the step that was collecting dust in my basement along with the treadmill ect. Starting slowly but I am getting there. If you need support just ask away;)

You are not alone :)

Hi. Join me! Let me know how your doing with T25. I have it but haven't looked at it yet. Trying to get into some sort of shape first. Over 100 lb to loose starting slowly but gaining momentum.

Consider it done ;)

Wilkes barre area here!

Wow. I sit here and I truly feel for you! I also had a childhood similiar to yours and I can identify with your pain. I have used food as an emotional crutch as well and my weight has fluctuated because of it. That is a habit I am determined to break. I know that what gets me going is the sheer determination that while…

Thanks everyone for all the advice. I really appreciate it!

I know the calorie intake is low. Emotionally I am scared to eat more. I have a chronic illness and I am now on my 5 the medication for it. The last one made me gain 2 to 3 pounds a week. For a total weight gain of 85 lbs in about 7 months. I didn't realize it was the medication at first and started to lower my food…

Thanks. I think I will start using the food and exercise notes!

I am 5 6" and 185 now. I don't use salt on my food ever. If its in there then it is in the product. iam really big boned. If I get down to 180's then I look thin. I would never get down to 130. I would look sickly. Been there years ago. When I was thinner I had the same problem. I could do the same workout formore than six…

Oh. I made my diary public. Maybe it is in there? Frustrated...

I do eat more when I have exercised and can allow for it. I don' t intend to stay at this calorie intake forever and I am working with a nutritionist. I am hoping that as my fitness level increases that I will move my caloroe intake. I just neded a good start gained so much from medication in the last 7 months. Over ten…

Feel free to add me. I am at 1280 and my diary is open.

I to have been battling my weight for years. Up and down all the time. I also have over 100 lbs to loose. 85 having been gained on medication that was contributing but I am now on new meds and feel much better than I have in almost a year. I look at this as a lifestyle change and it is helping. Lost ten pounds before I…

You can add me if you want. I am new here mine says October but then I was ill so I actually started more than a month go. I am totally commited and have a lot to loose. Feeling great and love motivating and supporting others. I get so much back that I think I will stay on just for maintenance once I meet my goal. Anyone…

I know the feeling. Between bloating and the edema I can be 10 lbs heavier by the end of the day. Just realize that your truly not 5lbs heavier it is just water. My guess from your picture that no one but you looks at you that way. Take another look you have a lot going for you. ( Now if I could just apply that logic to…
