  • (Long John's) They do - it was a treat basically for one day. I have generally moved away from fast food which I used to eat 3-4 times per week. I do agree I need to add fruits and veggies also.

    in looking for new friends who are losing 100+ lbs Comment by LEOrzech March 2014
  • I am 48 and just started a month ago and am down 23 pounds thus far from 294 to 271. I got diagnosed with T2 diabetes and decided to fight it. Started walking one mile per day and am now up to 3-4 miles per day and eating 1200-1600 calories per day. Been very diligent - MFP really works.
