Which is why I sometimes don't even bother logging them in but its got to count for something :(

First and foremost...congrats on your amazing transformation! You look great! Like others have echoed...you're not alone with this unfortunately unsightly and sometimes downright uncomfortable predicament. I've had 3 cesarean sections over the course of 9 years...3 beautiful kids but they left me with a huge amount of scar…

Wow! What an amazing journey you've been on this past year! Your transformation is truly an inspiration...congrats and keep up the great work! :)

I'm 5'7 was over 200 but since starting and utilizing MFP and a form of the 17 day diet, am currently 167. The holidays were difficult and now that the last holiday/cooking buffet (superbowl) is behind me, its time to kick it into gear!

I gained as well. Nothing too out of hand but its ok. During this process, I have had many up and down moments but as long as you're still trying thats really all that matters. But for me, the important thing was that I enjoyed the holiday festivities and now I can get back to business and go from there. Hang in there and…

Thanks so much for the encouragement! And agreed...hoping that less calories means more weight loss. Maybe at a slower pace but nonetheless in a downward direction! As for the daily carbs...on this diet...I don't think its that much of an issue. I am on the second phase of the 17 day diet and so far (knock on wood) with…
