Same thing happened to me awhile back and I gave in to peer pressure and kept drinking. Then a bit later same friend wanted to diet and quit. That pi$$ed me off!

AHHH must be Kentucky!!! I'm a Ky girl living in Florida... Where I live it's beautiful all the time! Palm trees, the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets, beautiful white sandy beaches! I am in Southwest Florida. Moved almost exactly 1000 miles last October.

Weight Today (8/21) = 275 9/5 Goal = 270 Actual = 10/3 Goal = 260 Actual = 11/7 Goal = 265 Actual = 12/5 Goal = 250 Actual = 12/26 Goal = 255 Actual = I'd love to lose more but not going to put too much pressure on myself.... 20 is doable!!!

Starbucks iced caramel - from the grocery with dark chocolate almond milk....yummmm!

Black bean burger cut up on 2 tortillas with pepper jack cheese, cholula and salsa 520 calories - very tasty and spicy!! :)

I'm seeing way too many Steelers fans on this thread.... #dislike #whoooodey #cincinnatigirl

I'm lookin up now....lol And also, Oatmeal with a fried egg??!!! With sirachi?! I might just have to try this!!!

^THIS! I have been on MFP for a few years, but JUST a couple weeks ago started being more involved - posting and adding friends! I have to say I love our community!! I've been so inspired and encouraged, the support is awesome!! I'm just starting out and have a long way to go, but WE can do this!! I actually deleted my…

I'm 35 and will have Associates next year then maybe go for my bachelor's.

Whooooooo DEY!!!! Proud fan of the Cincinnati Bengals!! (And proud hater of the steelers.........)

35 single no kids and no fur babies either. Moved from Cincinnati to SW Florida 10 months ago for a new start. Replaced Facebook with MFP and loving all my new MFP friends! Add me if you'd like :)

dawnStep - hello and welcome -thanks for joining! Walking at 2 jobs defiintely puts you in the "ACTIVE" category of activity = you will do well (if you don't keel over from exhaustion :wink: ) I never thought about that! I'm nervous though about upping my calories :/ right now at 1430 and 275ish lbs 5'4. Just changed to…

Hi everyone! It's nice to read a little about each of you and get to know you all. I'm going back to working nights tonight after being off for 3 weeks. I will be on my feet the whole shift so I'm curious to see what my Fitbit reads. We take our lunch break at 4 am and I can't seem to adjust to eating a meal at that time…

I need to step away from this thread....weigh in day is tomorrow!!! :/

oooooooh yeah baby!!!! lol

Hi I am new to the thread! 100+ to lose and only 6-7 pounds in. My August goal is to "complete entry" on every day's diary. I can log in and get my streak going, but if I'm not actually logging it's not helping me! Also get in the gym more. I am about to start working 2 jobs so I'm going to be super busy - on my feet at…

GREAT JOB! I myself would love to say goodbye to 50 in 4 months!!

I am single, but if I were married or had an SO I would be the same way. And Snooping to me implies trying to find something bc you don't trust. And I must be out of the loop with people getting nudes on MFP....LMAO!

Awesome job! I would love to do the same!

I recently tried Zumba and excited to keep going, ESPECIALLY after reading your story! Awesome job, you really look great!!

Yup...same here

My mom made me drink Brewer's yeast and OJ....bleh can't drink orange juice now.

When I was 18 my mom would ground me for the wknd if I didn't lose so much weight each week. I was 200. Got down to 170. I am now 275 and 35 yo.

I weigh every day - keeps me focused! I know it is not going to drop every day, but I love seeing the numbers gradually go down. When I used to weigh once a week I'd lose focus and gain.

Southwest Florida - moved here less than a year ago! Feel free to add me, Floridians!

I would love a mentor! I'm 35 with over 100 lbs to lose. I have been on and off of MFP for a couple years, but never used it for the support. I want to make this time work!

100+ for me also! I have been on and off of this site for a couple of years. I'd never had friends on here, just people I really knew but few used the site. I am getting on the forums and blogs now and it's soooo much nicer having this support system! Anyone, please feel free to add me!

I added you! I'm also looking for support and encouragement!

Oooooh! Yay! Here it is! Add me add me! Thanks! https://www.fitbit.com/user/232HTT

Beautiful!
