Thanks everyone! I want to add, I really appreciate the MFP friend requests I have received as a result of this post, however, I prefer to keep my personal communications with others funneled through my Facebook page. I check that newsfeed much more often than I do the MFP newsfeed and I can stay more current with comments…

Thanks so much! Ever since I joined MFP, I've come back to the Success Stories forum many times over for motivation and inspiration myself!

That moment when... Your husband hugs you and can put his arms all the way around you and link his fingers together... Your six-year-old son says, "mom, your arms and legs look smaller than before". You can sit comfortably in a restaurant booth for the first time in YEARS! You realize that you can cross your legs. Your…

I've been struggling with this very thing. I've lost 49lbs in the last 19 weeks, and still have long way to go to reach my ultimate goal, but I have a hard time "seeing" the difference to this point. I keep trying to remind myself that I've lost 5 pounds more than my five-year-old son weighs, and in my mind I know I'm on…
