MJ, Hooray for your increased loss! I'm on myfitnesspal also, but I didn't get on there until recently, so the lbs loss that site shows is not the actual pounds I've lost, it's less. I love that site! I love how that figure the calories, carbs, fats and all for you. Keep up the good work. You inspire me! Sandy

Sandy,
It let me go backwards and put my original weight, just not the original date. Clear as mud?
I wanted a clear reminder of where I started. (Of course, my doctors office has that, also.) :shock:

This doesn't necessarily mean that his other priorities were other "dates", it could mean that personal relationships were on the back burner and work was on the front burner.

To make a long story longer, when I was in my 20's I was drinking AT LEAST one carton of Pepsi a day. At that time it was the 6 packs of 16 oz bottles. In addition I was not eating much. Most days I would have a pack or two of those cheese and peanut butter crackers. (5'7" and 105 lbs yikes) Needless to say it didn't go well. I ruined my stomach, doctor put me on an ulcer diet. I was on that diet for 3 months, and lost about 10 pounds. I went through hell with the shakes and headaches and the whole nine yards, that went away after about a week. But, I craved Pepsi every minute of every day for three months because I knew I couldn't have it. The food I didn't really care about since I wasn't really eating anyway. To this day, 30 years later, I still have to be careful about what I eat. But, I know I can have a Pepsi anytime I want. So I don't even think about it some days.
Oh and I have never been able to tolerate diet drinks of any kind, so I always drink the regular.

I wasn't brave enough to use the graph with my real weight.
I like the graphic... I have one on SparkPeople but can't find it :( so I'm going to copy you and put one on here :D
It looks like I haven't lost but I really have....I have gone from 155 Jan 2010 to 147 today... ok... I have yo yo'd between 145 - 147 for the past three months but I am still below the 150 mark :D... next goal is 140. I can do it if I get off my butt and exercise daily...either stretches or walking
