Just got back on here, in search of the same help. My husband is a diabetic with stage 4 kidney disease. I sadly still struggle with keeping up with a sustainable diet.

Also looking for supportive friends! Feel free to add me. :) I've been on mfp multiple times, started doing good, lost track once and just couldn't seem to get back to it. I'm determined to succeed this time around. 24 with 100 lbs to get rid of.

Hi Laura! I'm Mariah. :) I've been on map multiple times and kept losing motivation. Determined to make this time around THE TIME!

Hi!! :) I'm 24 and also trying to get rid of 100 lbs. You can do this!

Ahhh! CAN'T..FREAKIN'..WAIT to start lifting! :D So many amazing transformations!

I'd venture into your batcave. :wink:

Do cheeze-its count as cheese? or goldfish? because those are reallyyyyy good with chocolate. :)

Hehe big guys make me quite happy! :wink:

Oh, definitely!

Because I have a 3 y/o at home with me..oh yeah..and no social life. :/

Hmm..I remember my dad singing that "roly poly, daddy's little fatty" song..which he claims he was just singing, not aiming at me..but I was swimming..still think it was about me. A boy told me to lay off the burger king after comparing me to my naturally really thin friend. Little brother told me I was too big to be in…

Boobs..since like 4th grade. :/ used to be my legs too..so hopefully I'll have sexy legs again in the near future. :)

Well I say 130 is my goal..so a 100 lb. loss..but I'll be taking up heavy lifting soon and I'll be just fine if I don't weight that little. I just want to get into a size 4-6 and look sexy as hell! :wink: I've been going up and down..BAD. I was around 220 and went down to about 213..then made my way up to 230 :sick: then…

HIIIII! :happy: I'm Mariah(Mia) I loveeee cake decorating..actually want to become a professional and open a bakery someday. (Hmm..a skinny baker?) And looks like I share this interest with a few of you. :love: I'm addicted to beef jerky and anything chili lime flavored..like big time. I'm engaged/married/w/e you wanna…

I foundddd youuuu! :glasses:

If I'm in better shape and healthier, I'll be much more fun for my son. I'll also have a better chance at being around for him longer. Guilt-free.

I'm on retry #ICan'tEvenCountThatHigh and this sounds like the perfect place for me. :flowerforyou:

I will be mentioning this to my mom, thanks. She's recovering from her 2nd hip replacement and now that both hips are feeling better, her other pains are front and center. She had been prescribed an antidepressant for it before and it made her like a zombie. Hopefully this is something that could be beneficial to her.

Hi there! I'm at around 230 and also want to lose 100 lbs. Oh and I'm about to be 21..so we're pretty similar. I'll add ya. :D Anyone else, please feel free to add me. I could use some more friends. :flowerforyou:

That's what I thought too..but not anymore. I had an almost completely healthy shopping list, got about as much groceries as usual, and spent maybe half the cash as usual. Way cheaper than boxed meals and fast food.

Hmm..well I actually love salads..but it is tough getting myself to eat them without smothering it in ranch. I've found I like them best made with baby spinach now. Throw in some carrots for a crunch in place of bacon bits and some grilled chicken to make it for filling. Heck, I'll allow myself ranch as long as I measure…

Usually least favorite first, saving the best for last. I only eat one thing at a time. Anything that I can take apart, I do..like green beans, I eat the outside and then the "bean"..or lima beans, I eat the "skin" then the rest of it. I'm sure there's more that I just don't think about. I've always been teased about how I…

Well..my clothes would be falling off of him at the moment haha. He wears a 34 jean..I wore a 36 (11/13) when I was about 60 lbs lighter. And when I was in that size, he was in a 30/32..so he's been smaller than me our entire relationship..no, not a deal breaker. It does bug me though..I can't wait till the day I can…

Nothing. :happy: But once it gets cold, I'll be breaking out my sock monkey footy pjs. Soooo comfy!:laugh:

All I can say..my boobs BETTER do some shrinkage or I'm gonna be one mad lady! I want to be able to just walk in some place and pick out some cute bras rather than trying on 5000000000000000000000000 granny bras before finding 1 that is decent looking and fits right. :grumble:

Mom. lol. My son was an indian last year, but I was too big to fit into any of the costumes I liked. So I was determined to lose enough weight and be Pocahontas this year........didn't happen. :grumble: Edit: that's he's a racecar driver this year..I guess I'm big enough to be the car?

Yeahhhh that was way depressing lol. I'll just say I'm also from Tonga and leave it at that. :embarassed:

I was down 8, but think I've gone back up (doing a new weigh-in) in the morning..so I have somewhere between 90-100 lbs to lose. My highest being 230. I've been completely lazy, but doing my best to get back on track with exercising, eating better, and logging it all. I'd love some new friends. Anyone feel free to add me.…

I certainly didn't lose weight on it..(mostly due to my lazy ways)..and I'm willing to bet the loss is from your hard work. Great job!

I do my best not to take what kids say too seriously..like others have said, they don't think of old the same way we do. Of course, it's still rude and hopefully the parent said something to them..so that they know better. Of course..when my 10 year old brother feels the need to remind me of how big I am, it actually…
