How do you begin again?
My highest recorded weight was 189 and I believe that was in 2009 or 2010. My lowest weight was 135, and I started college in August 2012 at 138. I'm now 186 and I'm not sure how to do it again. I thought I'd be able to maintain my health and weight loss in college, but evidently that isn't the case. I stopped counting…

I binged for the first time today...
And I ate over 3000 calories of yogurt, cereal, pumpkin pie, hibachi chicken and rice, chocolate chip cookies, and movie theatre popcorn. I feel absolutely disgusting and I want to make myself throw up. I lost over 50 pounds this year, but I stopped working towards my goal around September. I never make time to exercise…

Then and now... minus 50 pounds, but plus so much more
I officially started my weight loss/health journey on January 1 of this year. I was excited and nervous about the future me. I didn't have a trainer, or a plan, or a nutritionist. I just exercised. I counted my calories, I ate less, I ate better. I ran. I lived life (and am still living life) to its fullest. At first,…

Running my first 5k on Saturday
I'm running my first 5k race on Saturday, and needless to say, I'm kind of nervous. I've been jogging a few times a week for the past few months, but I'm still pretty slow. My mile pace is anywhere from 10 minutes to 15 minutes, so I really have no idea how I'm gonna do. I guess my goal would be to finish within 35…

30 pounds lighter! pics of my journey
Last year in April, I was at my heaviest weighing in at 189. I won't tell you I was surprised. Before I got weighed at the physical, I guessed in my head that it would be in the 180s. I was pretty overweight, and I had been for many years. Depression got the best of me. In October of last year, I was on StumbleUpon and it…

Should I just be more patient?
Hey guys! I started my weight loss journey officially on January 1, 2011. I'm 5'9 and I started at 179 pounds. Today, I weigh 165.2 pounds. My stomach has slimmed down so much, which is great, but I primarily carry my weight around my thighs and hips. I was wondering when I'll be able to notice more in the legs? What has…

hi! I'm sort of new...
I've been using MFP for a few weeks, but I never introduced myself. My name is Kristen and I'm 18. My profile says I'm 19, but I have no idea how to change it. It's my goal to lose 43 pounds, and so far I have lost 3! You all are very inspiring and motivating, and I'm so glad I am apart of this.
