Same here. I've had to delete friends bc they're just never on or supportive. I hope you find the kind of friends you're looking for. Feel free to add me if you're active on this site 👋

I found that keeping my appearance presentable, like having my eyebrows done, doing my nails and hair makes me feel more confident at the size I am while losing. I've also gotten some new clothes which helps boost my mood

IMHO, it looks like the woman you aspire to look like used a waist trainer

This is called sending a text for me. I said everything I've ever needed to say to people, good or ugly

I want to lose around 66 pounds. Feel free to add me

Nope. I use others successes as motivation. I remind myself that I'm a good person and when I was thinner got a ton of compliments. I can fix the outside, but some people are not beautiful on the inside and being in shape will never change that. So my advice, hang in there and try your hardest.

I don't work from home but am a student in college, round 2 (different degree). I'm in the hospital 5 days a week this summer which has kept me motivated...come fall it'll be only 3 days a week. I struggle when I'm not forced to be active. Feel free to add me

Me! 10-15 by Christmas

Check out Fitness Blender. They have some great stretching videos. Feel better

Maybe set your FB to private. People can be so harsh. I'm sorry you've had such an awful experience.

Caffeine helps curb appetite, coffee, green tea bag in a water bottle, whatever you prefer. I've been drinking out of a 1 L bottle and I've noticed I drink so much more water now vs when I drank out of a 16 oz. Maybe glucomannan would help, idk, haven't tried it but I'm considering it. Also, when I'm 'dying' of hunger and…

I'm always looking for mutually motivational pals. I'm pretty active on the site, feel free to add me.

I actually made a collage of my weight gain. It's on my thread somewhere. If I can find it I'll post it. I went from being obese in 2011 to 135 pounds 2013-2015 and I've gained it all back. It's a bummer but sometimes stuff like that happens in life.

Feel free to add me. I'm pretty active on the app

I would say #1 try everything you can to control the anxiety a) search for support groups online b) read articles about treatment c) talk to your doctor, it sounds like you're not on the right medication d) see an endocrinologist (your nutrients just may need adjusted) e) spend time in the sun everyday f) aromatherapy is…

Anyone can add me as long as the support/motivation is mutual

I lost close to 100 pounds in 2012. I was on medication that made me gain weight but I was still able to lose. In 2015 I gained 70 pounds. It's absolutely possible to lose while on medication

@Mega27tron, it may not be 'easy' for her to just eat. It sounds like she needs more advice/support than stating the obvious. IMHO

I eat my meals between 10:30AM and 7:30PM. It has decreased the urge to late night snack

I have those slippers

My family and I love wrestling! Congrats on joining a gym and MFP.

Thank you. I see an acupuncturist. Used to see a chiro but haven't for a few months

I think weight loss is totally psychological. There's no way my body needs 10 cookies, but once the sugar hits my brain... It's like I say to myself, it's totally fine, I'll do better tomorrow. After I started losing weight it became a competition with myself to see where I could cut calories. That was a mental addiction,…

I think it's our own insecurities that makes us think people are judging us when in reality they are paying no attention and focusing on themselves. Take some music with you and maybe that will help. You won't hear anyone if they do say something and people with headphones in look unapproachable, so you'll have that going…

I watch My 600 lb Life when I need a reminder of what I don't want to become

No. Nature should be able to thrive without human interference. Should squirrels be able to walk through our living rooms because it's a quicker route to the backyard? Nope. So we as humans shouldn't interfere with their home. Just a wad of chewing gum can kill a bird that eats it.

Is there a way to complete the spreadsheet on a phone?

@MissionEnforcer (How do you tag someone?) My name is Courtlynd. I'm 30 and live in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. I'm a full-time student and work part-time. Happy to be on the team.
