So depressed and alcohol has become my bestfriend
So...back in 2012 I lost 60 pounds and over 60” in 4 months....I counted calories. Starting out at 1200 and moving up to 1400. I used 30 min shred by Jillian Michaels and ate healthier than I had ever eaten in my entire life. I went from 250 down to 190....then the holidays came. I come from a family that makes dozens upon…

HELP! I need so much help!
DECEMBER 2015 UPDATE: so here I am almost four years after I started MFP and I'm so mad at myself! I don't know what my weight is right now because I have not stepped on a scale in almost a year.. I had lost about 62 lbs and 60 inches between February 2012 and march 2013. I hit a plateau and started to lose motivation.…

Small NSV
So it's been almost exactly 2 years since I decided to change my life for the better. I've had a LOT of setbacks and a few times where I almost gave up completely and gained over 10 lbs back. Each time, all it took was one glimpse at that picture of me from before my reality check and I jumped back on with flying colors.…

Wake up call...
I was replying to a message this morning and the following is part of what I wrote. After I read over it a couple times, I began to see more clearly what I've been missing for so long. Throughout this whole process of losing weight and quitting smoking and just becoming healthier in general, I have still spent a large part…

Negative people need not apply....
I've come a long way in the last year. My body has changed in so many ways and continues to change on a daily basis. It took me months, almost a whole year to see those changes in myself. But today I realized just how much my mind has changed too. I realized how much the negative-minded people in my life effect me. There's…

Vicious circle I call life
So here we are yet again, sitting on the same couches, "watching news" while he's on his iPad and I'm on mine, or folding laundry or doing dishes or whatever I can find to do to pass the time before I just decide to end it so I can do it all over again tomorrow. Completely ignoring each other because every time I talk he…
