Welcome! I'm restarting low carb, but have had plenty of success with keto in the past. I started at 343 pounds in 2015 and lost 137 pounds doing keto/low carb for just over a year. I'm back at it again because I've gained a bit of weight since having my son and I've always felt much healthier eating less carbs. Feel free…

Half a smoothie and pickled eggs.

I donated most of mine. I still have some clothes left because I can't afford a new wardrobe, but it feels so nice to goclothes shopping right now. I have every intention of staying this way, so I say get rid of your old clothes. Start fresh.

I currently weigh 219, a 124-pound loss. Anything below 200 would be awesome, lol. I haven't been in Onderland in at least 15 years.

"Fat will make you fat." "If you continue losing, you will disappear!" (Not exactly advice, but annoying to hear regardless.)

The scales really haven't moved much lately, so I have been feeling quite discouraged and haven't been super strict with my eating/exercising. I need to get back on track and stop beating myself up. It's really doing me no good.

I have a few. :) I was out bra shopping last weekend and the bras in the store actually fit me! I've gone from a 52 to a 40DDD. Same kind of thing, but I was out clothes shopping a few days ago and everything I tried on was either too big or fit me! I don't think that's ever happened. Usually I have a hard time finding…

Incredible and inspirational! :) Thank you for sharing. :D

Whoa, what amazing progress! You look great. :) Excellent job and very inspirational!

I agree. Yum! Looks fantastic. :)

Great job!

What a transformation! You look fantastic. Congrats on your progress. :)

Our weight loss goals are similar. You look great!

Excellent progress! You look stunning and I love your dresses. :)

Incredible! Great job. :)

You look amazing! Congrats on your journey and all you have achieved. :)

Wow, 81 pounds in under a year! That's amazing. Very inspiring to me. :) Congrats!

I made stuffed peppers tonight

I have started using MFP every day. Feel free to add me. :) Good job on your progress so far!

Leftover squash/pork and a salad. Nothing terribly exciting. Not feeling the greatest tonight, so I wasn't inspired to actually cook, lol.

Definitely invest in a slow cooker if you don't have one! They definitely come in handy. Today, I cut up some pork chops and butternut squash, added some spices, and let it cook for 5 hours. Yesterday, I made homemade chicken soup. You just do the prep work and walk away! I'm a student taking an intense 8-month course, so…

I'm at 329 now, but was at 343 last week. I was down to 315 a few months ago and was stuck, so I just gave up. I found that I'm losing weight faster this time because I completely changed up my diet. No pop, lots of water, veggies/fruits, not as many carbs. Before, I was exercising like crazy and not losing, so what you…

All of this food looks amazing! Hopefully this works... I've never posted a picture here. I cut up pork chops and butternut squash. Threw it in a crock pot with onions, garlic, maple syrup, 1/2 cup of dark beer, and salt/pepper.

Amazing job! :)

I hope your nephew shows up soon, safe and sound! Your story is amazing. 104 pounds down? You rock! I want to lose at least 130-150 pounds (maybe more). I ballooned to 330 after my mom died. I've always been big, but never over 300. I have always dealt with my problems through food though and that's how I "coped" when she…

This is incredible! I want to lose over 100 pounds, so your story is very inspiring to me. :) Congrats on all you have accomplished thus far. You look amazing!

You're welcome to add me. I'm 27. :)

Feel free to add me as well! I have well over 100 pounds to lose and I'm starting my journey over again. The more you exercise, the easier it gets! When I started exercising this week after taking a "break," I was very stiff. My legs were not cooperating with me. It's been three days now and I feel much better! Good luck…

I love Zumba! Trust me, it's a workout. I burn soooo many calories. I want to start going to the gym. I'm just a little nervous to go alone! Swimming is also great exercise and low impact. :)

Hello everyone! My name's Leanna (Annael backwards). I just turned 27 in June and am looking to lose quite a bit of weight. I've always been bigger, but I am now at my heaviest. My weight is really discouraging and I've been struggling to try to lose since January. I haven't made much progress unfortunately and when I…
