I've only been on here a few days and I'm already dealing with a fat shamer. Is there a lot of that on this site? If so, maybe this isn't the place for me.

I've discovered I am still in overachiever. I just read that the average person has gained 18 and a half pounds as a result of quarantining for the pandemic. I gained 27. I just can't seem to help myself when it comes to outdoing others. I hope my ...

I have to say, as an overweight karate instructor, this is the one patch that I was ok with never getting. A month ago I was issued a challenge by my instructor to earn it and tonight, I got it. And this comes after 60 pound weight loss since ...

I've not been active in BO for a while. I've been personally frustrated with my progress losing weight, and with the lack of communication among group members. Dot has kept the group from being closed, because she posts often. Thank you Dot. Today ...
