I can't remember how many times I have started and stopped MFP, Weight Watchers, Atkins, Low-Fat, Vegan, Vegetarian, you name the diet I have tried it multiple times! Until the ketogenic diet. I am doing this now and it is saving my life mentally and physically. I have considered myself a food addict for years. Call it…

Hey Terry, Nice to read your post. I will send you a friends request.

add me if you'd like. I am on here every day and am happy to provide encouragement and support. I am working on losing 100+ pounds. I have lost and gained back weight so many times in my life. Now I am on here and committed to doing this for the rest of my life. When I interact with others on here, record my food and…

I am in the 100+ category of pounds to lose. I have been back on MFP for 18 days and have lost 11 pounds during that time. I find that I can lose the weight if I track my food and exercise and talk with my MFP buddies each day. When I don't track and interact on here, then I tend to slide off the track and gain weight…

I am doing the same. I am happy to encourage and support you and any others on here. I find we need friends to help us along the way!

1. Login to MFP every day and track my food and exercise. When I do this I lose weight! 2. Get back into singing and performing 3. Go to church most Sundays 4. Challenge every negative thought about myself by stating a true positive statement about myself 5. Be mindful and live in the present moment - not thinking about…

A great way to be active and meet people is to go on the website meetup.com. You can then find groups who are getting together to go out and do stuff and you can "meet up" with them. Also having friends on here that are active is motivating. I have a husband that loves his recliner and the TV as well. I sit for a little…

I am currently on the journey of losing 197 pounds. I have lost 9 of those to date. It is a journey. I see many others stating this and it is true. The weight loss is just the start. Maintaining the weight loss is the continuation for the rest of my life. I too have lost weight and then gained it back plus more. So I am…

Go out dancing!

I will join you. I have a lot more to lose but that is okay. Any removal of excess body fat is good!

Tea has tannins in it and many people don't tolerate those well. When I gave it up I did it slowly by reducing the amount I drank over a 4 weeks. So if you are drinking 3 cups a day you can reduce to 2.5 a day for a week, then 2 cups etc until you give it up completely. It seems like those coffees each day are comforting…

Wow. Thank you for posting. You have inspired me.

Your feelings are your feelings. You know best because you are in this relationship. I think you have questioned yourself for a long time but now you need to just be yourself....your WONDERFUL self. I agree with some of the others who posted that it is time for you to have a long talk with him about how you feel and about…
