Hating My Thunder Thighs
I'm to the point that addtional weight loss causes me to look skeletal from the waist up, but I've still got these massive thunder thighs. I have big somewhat muscular legs. My husband says my collar bone is sticking out too much and to quit trying to lose weight. I want to get down to 130 (about 10 lbs away). Anyone else…

What have I done? Signed up for 10k
I've done a couple 8k runs since getting healthy. My first run was in September. It was the Apple Festival 8k, and it was the culmination and celebration of me getting healthy. I didn't finish anywhere near the front, but I FINISHED and I beat some people. And I felt really good about it! I did another in October. I was on…

Plastic Surgery
I have lost almost 80 lbs from my heaviest (which was just a few years ago). I lost the last 65 lbs really quickly over about 7 months. I've been able to maintain and lose a little more (slowly). I'm pretty happy with my weight and fitness. With clothes on, I look pretty good. However, without clothes, my skin is sagging,…

Weight Loss & Wrinkles
I'm 28. I've lost 60 lbs in the last 7 months. My face is much slimmer than it was when I was heavy. The only complaint I have is all these wrinkles on my face. I think because my skin was somewhat stretched while I was heavy, and now I don't have fat or fluid in my face, the skin is sagging some. When I smile, when I…

34 lbs lost in 4 months - Progress Pics
I've lost about 34 lbs (I still have about 30-35 to lose). Here are some progress photos. Hopefully you can tell a difference. I don't think the pose I'm standing in shows very well. However, I'm standing almost in the same place in my living room. Same distance from camera and same pose as I was in December. The photo in…

Stumbling Block :(
I was doing so well with Blue Sky MD (medical weight loss clinic). I have lost 33 lbs since Feb 1 (26 with them). Now I've blown it. I have gallbladder disease. So this low carb, high protein diet... Not the best thing for me right now. I went to the ER last night with horrible abdominal pain. Now it has to come out. Of…

NSV Today
I've lost 29 pounds total since February 1. 17 since I started using MFP almost 40 days ago. Anyway - I want to lose another 30-40 lbs so I've been putting off buying new clothes. But, I'm a professional and I can't be wearing baggy clothes and pulling up on my bra all day long. It just looks bad. Today, I went to NY & Co…

Workout Tunes
What genre of music, bands, artists or songs get you and keeps you pumped up while you're working out? "Classic Rock" does it for me. I love to listen to The Who, Led Zeppelin, Rush, etc. while I'm working out.

Skin issues
I've been thinking a lot about my skin. I have lost 19 lbs in 2 months, and I'd like to lose about 40-50 more. I have some loose skin already from my pregnancy. I'm just concerned that my skin will not bounce back. I have terrible skin (thanks Mom) that gets stretch marks super easy. I apparently have little to no…

Hello
I just started using MFP about a week ago. I'm currently enrolled in a medical weight loss program. I was recording my calories in the Calorie King book the office gave me, but it is SO much easier to use the mobile app from MFP. Today, at my weekly check in, I printed my progress out for the nutritionist to review. My…
