Been a long time
I used MFP years ago to lose weight. I think from when I started MFP to my lightest (212) I had lost ~140lbs from my heaviest I assume 200+ (best guess is I was around 425). The last several years my weight has been creeping back up. I am now sitting at nearly 270. It is very disappointing to see the scale at that number.…

Need motivation to keep going
So I'm 32 years old and have lost ~130 pounds. I would really like to lose another 20-30 to get down around 185-190.

Anyway 3 years ago I was dedicated to losing weight. I started June of 2012 and by November I was under 300 lbs. My wife and I went to Kauai…

I decided in June of 2012 I needed to lose weight. I have been large my whole life. I have a very dense body and have always been able to hold a lot of weight with no real…

Am I doing it right?
Alright my wife and I have been calorie counting and exercising for about 3 months now. MFP has become our friend. I'm not sure if I am doing this right. I am 6 feet tall, I started out at 345.7 pounds. My ultimate goal is to be around 220-240 lbs. I am a big guy no getting around that, broad shoulders and dense. I started…
