I ran a marathon - at age 60 - having started running in my 50's

Congratulations! You look fabulous

Be patient. If you fall of the wagon one day don't give up - just get back at it the next day. If you have a craving, satisfy it with a very small portion and work it into your calorie allotment for the day. If you can't have just a little portion of it (I can't with chocolate) find a substitute.

What an amazing life changing journey you've been on! Thank you for sharing it

WOW what a question - I'm sure it's going to open a firestorm however here is my thoughts. Do they become more attractive???? Yes I think they do BUT look at the difference in the photos. In the before they usually look miserable, don't really smile, wear clothes to hide in and appear to be trying to shrink away from the…

WOW - just wow!

Me too. Just get started again. That's where I'm at. I know what happened. I was training for a marathon and stopped fasting. Plus thanksgiving and hristmas. Then 10 days at Disney World. I'm surprised it's only 10. But I'm back at it now. Fasting today.

WOW! You look fabulous (and 10 years younger too)

You can live without your wine.

I prefer IF to eating at a daily deficit. I was at 1200 calories a day and hit a plateau I could not break for months. I changed over to IF, with fasting two days/week and 500 calories allowed on those fasting days. The non fast days I could eat up to 2000. I immediately broke through my plateau and dropped 25 more lbs to…

What an amazing transformation!

It's hard to allow yourself to be a healthy weight when it's heavier than you are used to and when you have a distorted body image (I was told that once when I was upset because I weighed 120 lbs). You look fabulous with the added weight - much better than when you were more slender. Our heads sure mess us up don't they

I'm doing a HM the first sunday in November - will that count? It's my 4th but I'm a little anxious about it anyway. I'm also signed up for my first full marathon in January....

Well I can tell a difference. DO NOT GIVE UP!

WHAT??? You not only lost weight, turned your life around, and scaled a 14K man - YOU CARRIED YOUR UPRIGHT BASS TO THE TOP???? Thats the craziest and most awesome thing I've seen on here. Congratulations! I love the pictures and the scenery, but most of all the happy smile on your face.

I switched from WW years ago. WW works, but you have to pay. MFP is free, easy and I just like it better. It's worked for me. While CICO is true, There is also different ways to eat that WW doesn't support - such as intermittent fasting. I've found that works really well for me. I learned about it from a doc I work with,…

You're hard work is paying off. You look fabulous!

Boy I'm really gonna lay it out here and get prepared for the flaming. I am a nurse, and I SEE everyday what being obese does to people. I am 126 lbs, and people that weigh triple me come in every day wanting ME to lift them up, push them in wheelchairs, keep them from falling and it is killing my back. I now refuse to…

WOW! I can't begin to tell you how happy I am for you. Fabulous change in your weight and appearance, but the ability to be mobile with less pain - fabulous. The happier look on your face says much

Hubby does HFLC, and ran a marathon eating that way. We both are runners, do no dairy d/t lactose intolerance. I can't go into the science of it like above, but it is able to be done, and done well. He used Lara bars (cashew cookie) for nutrition during long runs because they are low on carbs.

What a huge accomplishment! Congratulations

Apparently NOT how to spell. It's LEARNED - sorry, it's just one of my pet peeves

You look amazing - congratulations!

Amazing work! Go for it! it'll be so worth it in the end

You can SO do this! I'm pulling for you

How about bacon and eggs for breakfast. That will get you no sugars or proteins, fill you up and hold you longer. It's what I do

WOW - great time. Congratulations

I've used it with great success. The endocrinologist at my doc's practice uses it for those with insulin resistance with great success. It's also used now with the diatician at the hospital I work at. It's been medically proven to work with helping control blood sugars in those who are pre diabetic

Oh lord - I had a Jimmy John's Ultimate Porker sandwich on wheat.

How much better I feel eating healthy and being more active
