Reached my ultimate weight goal!
I am 5'2. Freshman year of high school, i weighed 125. I felt 'fat' compared to most girls. By the time i graduated, i weighed 145lbs. I felt even worse about myself. When I got pregnant a year after graduation (aug of 2011) I weighed 155. My son was born april of 2012, 6 weeks early. I gained 43lbs in those 34wks that I…

Prematurely Rewarded myself..
Dec 2012, i was 8mo pp after having my son and still weighed 180, the exact weight I left the hospital weighing. I decided to start on MFP and lose it all. My goal was 125. I decided when I hit my goal, to give myself a big reward. I had no idea what. The past few weeks, i have been OBSESSED with the idea of chopping off…

What would you do?
I am getting married weds. I have been on MFP for 7 1/2mo now, and lost over 43lbs! Problem is, between the wedding food and the cake and the honeymoon (which, we aren't traveling - we're staying home, but going out to eat here and going to the arcade there with our little man to celebrate) i'm pretty sure I'm not going to…

Looked at an old photo, totally shocked!
Weight loss is gradual, and I don't really notice any changes in the mirror. I checked out an old photo of myself today, and did a side-by-side comparison of a recent photo.. I couldn't believe the difference! *Note : I weighed the same in the left photo until i started on MFP. This photo was taken around 6wks after I had…

NSV! Losin' baby weight!

What was your biggest food addiction?
I had a MAJOR addiction to arizona green tea. It was ALL that I would drink. Most days, I would easily drink a GALLON by myself. That was over 1,100 calories in just sugary drink I was taking in daily, and barely eating any actual food. It has been three weeks, and I have had ONE glass of green tea. I replaced my 1,100 cal…

Higher cal, nutrient dense, healthy snacks?
I am on a very strict diet - not to lose weight atm, but to make sure I get in 1800 cals a day at least because I am breastfeeding and if I do not eat enough, my son doesn't eat well either.. I am a vegetarian (No meat/fish, eggs and dairy are ok) and I am having trouble some days.. I eat 3 meals, and am still at like…
