Howdy! I'm 26 years old and at my highest weight I was 424 pounds. I feel that I've been living my life up to this point by half measures, and I don't want to live like this anymore. My weight has held me back for so long, and I'm tired of it. I joined this site 2 years ago and I lost 47 pounds. Everything was great until…

I'm an emotional eater and I have been since I was a kid. My inability to cope with stress propelled me to 424lbs and now I'm trying to lose 224 of them. I'm trying to develop a healthier relationship with food, but I still have bad days and that's okay. I just log everything I eat when I'm stressed (even when I'm ashamed…

I weigh myself every day shortly after waking up just to make sure I'm still on track. However, I only record the number I get on Wednesday morning. I know people say that weighing yourself everyday can be discouraging, but I try not to get bummed out if the numbers don't go down. It's not enough to make me give up :smile:

Leslie Sansone's walking dvds are pretty awesome. She endorses multi-muscle walking and her routines are easy to follow with no need for extra equipment. Most of her dvds are under $20, and some are even under $10 on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Most-popular-Leslie-Sansone-DVDs/lm/RC2SRYDQ57MEJ

I'm sedentary, 24, and female. MFP started me off at 2700 calories to lose 1lb a week. It's really hard to hit that mark while making healthy choices and watching my sodium intake. I just recently added in cardio and strength training to my daily routine, so some days I have as many as 3100 calories to take in! I never…

Today I had 1 cup of Quaker Oats prepared with water and no salt, a cup of frozen sliced strawberries, and 1/8 of Spartan Lite Maple Syrup.

Hello all! My name is Ashley and at a youthful 24 years old my highest weight was a staggering 424 pounds. For the past 5 years I hovered precariously around 375-390 pounds. I've always been overweight, and at 375+ I had finally learned how to love myself and my body in spite of the world telling me that there was…

My periods are very heavy, very long, and very irregular so I swear by my femmecup! The amount of pads and tampons I'd go through each cycle was ridiculously expensive, but the cup made them obsolete. You can wear them all day (up to 12 hours) and they don't absorb your flow like those terrible tampons. Sure they can be a…

I've given up juice and soda completely! I used to drink almost a gallon a day, but now my primary source of hydration is water. I mean, I don't even drink diet soda or crystal light or anything like that anymore. Occasionally I'll have a glass of skim milk, some tea, or a cocktail but very rarely.

I've managed to lose 23 - 25lbs in a little over 2 months. I seem to have plateaued and now my weight fluctuates within 1-2lbs, but I'm trying not to get discouraged since I recently incorporated walking and weight lifting into my routine. SW: 424 CW: 399 GW: 200
