76lbs down, 75 to go. Half way there!
My heighest weight was 301lbs. I was depressed due to the abusive relationship I was in. All I wanted to do was sleep. I knew I had to lose weight but when I would go to the gym it was to sit in the locker room & get away from home, I would walk a mile & go home. I would stress eat. Around November 2018, about the same…

I joined MFP on 3/20/2011. Since then I've been pregnant twice & had to start all over again. The friends I made when I was new were amazing!

This is worked for me! So I wanted to share it with other! =D I was watching Rachael Ray one day & there was a nutritionist who said to lower your sugar intake to only 15 grams a day & 6 servings of carbs. What's NOT in the video is that earlier on the show he said you could lose 5-9lbs a week just by doing this!.... I…

Walking distance website?
Alright, I'm sorry if I can't ask this the right way because it's been a while since I've seen the website. Someone about a year ago showed me a website that you can see how long and far is it to walk from point A to point B. For example I could go to the website and type in the road I live on and it would tell me how many…

Should I feel guilty?
Okay so I started MFP at the end of March 2011. I didn't have to deal with losing weight in winter because I got pregnant.

Cauliflower
I've been trying to find alternative for my meals to make things even healthier than they already are. I steam my cauliflower and then eat it with ranch dressing. I like the extra flavor, because I don't like the taste of cauliflower all by itself, too plain for me. What would you substitute the ranch dressing for that's…

Freezing vegetables (or fruits)?
Has anyone bought vegetables before and froze them? I wonder if I do that and then steam them when I want them if they'd be just as good as if I'd have steamed them fresh =/ I don't enjoy running to the grocery store every time I want a certain vegetable, so I was thinking of buying a bunch of green beans for example &…

Is it bad for kids to have zero calorie sweeteners?
I've heard a few people say that zero-calorie sweeteners aren't good for you. But let's face it, people aren't going to stop eating it. I like my sugar free pudding, sugar free jello, etc. But what I want to know is... Can it be bad bad for kids? Could it harm them in the long run? I don't buy it for my son, but he likes…

March 20th was my 1yr anniversary on MFP & I completely forgot. My goal was to go from 233 to 160 in a year. I made it to 188.6, only 29.6lbs away from my goal.

I've heard multiple times that if you stop losing weight then to up your calories. I'm not saying it doesn't work, but I was just wondering if someone could explain to me how it DOES work. I understand that if you've been eating 1200 calories for a while you'll stop losing weight or hit a plateau, because your body gets…
