73 pounds down, 27 to go!
I've posted here before, many times, in the last 18 months. Today is my year and a half anniversary, and to date I've lost 73 pounds. Around the year mark, I stopped counting calories and focused instead on making healthy choices. I continued to lose during that time, but my loss has slowed way down. I was content with…

50 lbs down and ONEDERLAND (as of today)
I've been working at this since March, and I passed my halfway point about a month and a half ago. I have several milestones, but this was the biggest one for me because I haven't been below 200 lbs since middle school. It was sort of surreal to see a 1 in front of my weight this morning, but I look forward to never having…

People who have reached GW - where do you shop now?
Calling everyone who has reached their goal, or are close to it, and have had the chance to go shopping places that they've never been able to shop at before! I started a "new wardrobe fund" when I started this back in March, and have been working on a wish list of clothes I'd like to buy when I reach my goal weight. I'm…

6 months ago I started this journey, and today I can say that I'm officially down 38 lbs, 10+ inches off my waist, 3+ inches off my hips, and a hell of a lot happier.

What 30 lbs did to my face.
I posted awhile back...I think at my 20 lb mark to show my body progress pics, but I haven't focused on what weight I've lost in my face much. I honestly didn't think it was much at all...I guess because I was looking at it everyday! Then the other day I looked, really looked, at my driver's license and I was shocked at…

Any other women here who WANT to lose weight in their chest?
(Sorry if this is not the right board for this question.) I hear that for a lot of women it's the first thing to go, which is a problem for many, but I'd LOVE to lose weight there. As I go through others' progress pics, I see some who lose in proportion to everything else, and others who don't seem to lose at all (I hope…

3 months, down 25 lbs, 25/F 5'6
I've been using MFP for about 2 months now, and surprisingly only happened across the message boards here recently. I find other people's progress pics incredibly motivating, so I'm glad to have found another great place to share tips and see progress (I also spend a lot of time over at www.reddit.com/r/loseit). I started…
