If there was a clear, easy answer to that half of America wouldn't be overweight. To answer your question though it helps to keep a diary and write how you are feeling before and after you eat. It gives you insight into your eating habits and how your emotions are linked to your eating choices. Then hopefully you can…

Thighs are a problem area for me too. I used to do a lot of squats and got lots of compliments on my "big pretty legs". I started doing yoga and so far its the only thing that has helped, making my athletic legs more feminine.

I envy Naomi Campbell's body even after her modeling career.

yessssss!

I once heard someone say that nobody ever "feels like" working out, and that it everyone waited on the feeling that hardly anyone would be in shape. It helps me to remember this and know that I need to just do and get it out of the way.

You look so amazing! I love your story. It is so real and motivating. Thanks for posting.

I have recently started using MFP. I am slowly losing about a pound a week. I am starting to learn a lot about portion sizes and measuring. I really miss getting really full though.

I just started this so your post is so inspirational and letting me know that it really is possible! Great work!

[When I see old pictures, I mostly just feel sad that I didn't lose weight sooner. But, I realize I just wasn't ready back then.] love love love this. This is how I felt!

love love love this. This is how I felt!

I am not sure why your doctor suggested that, but it sounds to me that youneed to ask for a referral to a dietitian asap. They give you accurate, clear nutrition intake information and also explain how to count calories, read labels, portion control, meal planning. Just call your doctor's office and ask to see a dietitian,…

I am so busy that I really don't have time to watch t.v. so every time I lose a full pound I watch something on my dvr or Netflix.

Congratulations! I felt awesome breaking the 200s too. I can't believe it took me so long to start using MFP, I have learned so much. See you at 189!
