I started on MFP May of 2011. By December 2011 I had lost 68 lbs....just 7 lbs shy of my ulitmate goal! I maintained around 140-145 from that point until the past few months.

Could use a little encouragement...... :-(
I have been going strong for 3 months and lost steadily every single week. Things have slowed tremendously and it is discouraging. I have many stress factors in my life that i know are not helping but i need/want to persevere. This community has been such an inspiration to me and so helpful and i would not be where i am…

Looking for help --- Please!
So i weighed in today for my 9th week and i was not happy. I was only down .8 after a steady 2-3 lb loss/week. Not sure what i did wrong or if i am just hitting that god forsaken plateau. I am very honest with my logging and use a heart rate montior to know exactly what i burn. My only downfall is that i am not very good…

Goals Calcuation
So i filled out the goals (not customized but recommended) and i opted for the 2 lb a week loss. Why when i save it does it only show a 1.3 loss per week goal??? Also, i have gotten notifications twice (each time i lost 10 lbs) about automatically recalculating my goals and i hit yes but it does not seem like anything…

Anyone else thrive on comments from friends/loved ones?
I am sure this is a no-brainer but I find myself looking for someone/anyone to comment on how i look. Even though i have only lost 14 pounds - some days i feel better than others - but i feel like i have accomplished more when people notice. The problem with this is that so many of my family/friends know that i am…

Loving MFP!
Hi all, I discovered this site almost a month ago and have been quite pleased. I am a 33 year old mother of two and have struggled with weight for over 10 years. I have been as high as 250 and as low as 135. I have tried everything imaginable to lose the weight and was successful once but not by the right means, hence why…
