Progress Pics
Hello, all! A friend of mine encouraged me to take some progress pics. I didn't want to do it because I didn't think there would be much difference that you can see. But I did it anyway out of curiosity and when I put the pics side by side I almost started crying. I started at 330lbs with 200 pounds to lose. I have lost 42…

1 year from 330lbs to 236. (Pics)
Today marks 1 year of dedicated logging. I started at 330lbs at 5’1” and life was physically hard. Everything was hard. I could barely function.

Low Carb Newbie
Hello, everyone! I am a low carb newbie. My doctor has suggested that I go low carb (and low sugar) to help with a few medical issues (pre-diabetes being chief among them) and because I am morbidly obese. I am on day 5. I felt like I had the flu yesterday, but I came into this group and that very first post about low carb…

Tough Love Needed
Hi! I'm looking for some friends who can dish out honesty and tough love. I've never been the kind of person who gets over hurdles with unicorns and glitter and kindness. If you call it like you see it and don't let people make excuses, then you're the friend for me! I am 33, a SAHM, and I am going to lose 167 pounds to…
