You are amazing!! Congrats on your progress, you look fabulous!! I'm sure you will be an inspiration to many, thank you so much for sharing! ~ You can motivate by fear. And you can motivate by reward. But both of these methods are only temporary. The only lasting thing is self-motivation. ~ Homer Rice

I'm on 2000 IU of Vit D every day, along with 1000 mg of Calcium, also MD prescribed. I am lucky enough to not have a reaction to it. Keep up with your allergist & MD to find the root cause. I hope they pinpoint the culprit. I've had light food allergies all my life' some I have outgrown, some I stay away from. Seems no…

Hi & congrats on quitting! I'm Susie. I quit smoking in February, breathing had gotten to be a hard thing to do! Anywho...I gained 45 pounds after quitting (yep, I always could eat up a storm). My daughter brought me here to MFP & I'm loving the amazing people and support we all have here; I think you will too. Feel free…

Bump!

I'm 54. I was a young one that never had to diet and could eat anything. Slowly that changed over the years. Since menopause a few years ago & now that I quit smoking in Feb of this year....I packed on the pounds while taking on the role of couch potato/hermit! I have no real excuses to not exercise hard besides being…

Thanks for posting this question & thanks to everyone who replied! It's good to know that I'll be able to rebuild/tone up these muscles! I'm beginning slowly in hopes to work(out) myself into the grand finale of being bright beautiful and brimming with health!

Welcome back Jay! I'm Susie, still new here but finding amazing folks! New day, new start...never give up!

My diary is open to my friends. I like that they can see my good, bad & ugly days! Helps to keep me accountable and less likely to venture too far into the "no, no zone". They really do (gently) help keep me on the straight and (eventually) narrow. The folks on my list are nonjudgmental with their support! I've only had to…

We all have a different "optimal weight" because even if we are exactly the same height, metabolism, bone structure and other factors make us different. You will know where you feel and look the healthiest when you arrive there!! Good luck on your journey and don't let nay sayers bring you down. We can all do this for…

Chevy, I feel the same way. For me the word diet = denial, I just can't deny myself or I will binge! I grew up the "skinny kid" never dieted, don't plan on starting. If I have the urge to splurge, I try to counter balance that splurge with exercise (of which I have been way to lax on over the years). What I am doing/want…
