I can't lose the weight. Frustrated. Moms help?
Let me start by saying that i've been on MFP for 3 years now. I've lost 120 lbs in 2 years all thanks to this site and the support I receive on here. So, in general, i know what i'm doing. However, i'm at a loss now. I had a baby 12 weeks ago. For the last 6 weeks i've religiously counted my cals. Nothing. I'm breast…

I'm self conscious about my stretch marks. I've worked hard to wear a bikini (i'm not there yet but would like to wear one on our vacation in a few months) but i'm worried about the stretch marks and theres nothing I can do for them. Any thoughts? Would you?

Morbidly Obese to HEALTHY! 277 to 149 lbs PICS
WoW. Never in a thousand years would i think i would ever get to where I am. I'll share my story but feel free to just skip to the pics if that's what you would rather :) I've always been overweight. I dont think ive ever been at a "normal healthy" BMI, even as a kid. As an adult i'd never been under 220 lbs. I'm only 5'5.…

Someone make me feel better please ;) In the past few days i've gained 2 lbs. I havent gone over my calories and i've been eating pretty healthy, no different than usual.

"Stop losing weight!" Uggggh.
So, yesterday my parents & sister had a talk with me. They told me its time for me to stop losing weight & they are worrying I'm going too far?! They asked me how much more I plan to lose & I said that my goal is about another 15-20 lbs. They were not happy & saying I'm looking too thin & gaunt. It really pissed me off.…

Good bye 100 POUNDS!! Pics :)
Today, i hit a huge milestone. I lost 100 lbs! I never, ever thought I could do this but i have and its SO worth it. I started in February of last year, so it's been about 11 months. I started at 277 lbs. Today my scale said 177 lbs. My goal is only 20 lbs away. That seems so close when you start with a 120 lb goal. My…

When did your weight loss slow?
I started at 277 lbs and was losing pretty quickly. 3 lbs a week sometimes but never less than 2. Once i hit about 185 lbs it slowed down a lot. Im now 175 and the past 10 lbs has taken 10 weeks, so im about down to 1 lb a week. Thats normal, right? Mostly just curious when everyone elses slowed down.

Onederland!!!! Pic heavy. -78 lbs!!

MFP, i owe everything to you and am so thankful. I feel like im walking on a cloud today. And i know its not a fad diet, i've changed my entire life…

Are you buying new clothes?
Just curious what everyone else is doing. I've lost a good amount of weight and my clothes are all too big but i dont want to buy new clothes because i have quite a bit more to lose. It would kinda be a waste of money. So right now i'm wearing clothes that are getting pretty big on me. Thankfully i kept my jeans that were…

What do you eat when you REALLY want junk?! (Girls)
It's almost that time of the month and i'm dying here. I want to eat ALL.DAY.LONG. And nothing healthy. I want a big chocolate bar and a big bag of cheetos. Thankfully I dont keep that stuff in the house anymore. The other 3 weeks of the month I have super great willpower and can turn anything down. But now I WANT JUNK.…
