Wow...It's been seven years since I posted that. About three years ago, I gained back all my weight due to stress and personal issues at home. I am proud to say that I refocused and lost 35 pounds since October 2019. I'm now at 225lbs and am looking to drop down to my goal of 170lbs. I know my original post mentions to…

Hi! I'm just now starting my weight loss journey, and I was wondering what is a good starting point for meal plans? What do you recommend for meals one should eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner? I'm 5'7" and 250lbs. I would love to drop down to 175lbs. I already have started working out for the last three weeks doing…

Wow! Awesome transformation! I'm going to use this as motivation for me!

Great job! So what was your routine?

I had to remind myself about this earlier today. I've been working out hard the last few weeks and haven't "seen" any results. At least my pants fit loose now... :-)

Good job! Today is my birthday (9/13) and I hope to reach my goal next year.

I've had the same issue: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/734717-forget-the-scale-focus-on-your-body

Great advice on here. Thanks.

Starting weight: 256 Current weight: 234 Goal weight: 175

I don't think I'll step on a scale any time soon...unless I notice a significant change in my body composition.

Same thing happened to me over the weekend. I was at a tailgate for a college game and I just could not eat any of the greasy BBQ ribs or brisket...but boy did I want to! I've found that after a month of clean eating, my body cannot stand greasy foods.

Great pics! I should print some of these out and place them on my wall.

I started noticing I was losing weight when I had to go down a notch on my belt. From there I noticed how loose my pants were. I've been a member of MFP for a while but I never took it seriously till last month. I'm 25 pounds down and have 60 pounds more to go to meet my ideal weight!

Outstanding! So what workout regimen are you following?

You Sir are my inspiration! I started at 256lbs and wantto drop down to 175lbs. MFP has been very helpful in my jouirney to become healthier and happier!

Now that's motivation right there! I just started working out and eating right, and I lost 12 lbs already. Started out at 256 lbs and am now 244 lbs. 70 lbs more to go!
