How can I avoid excess skin after weight loss
I am trying to lose 90 lbs. I have a very flabby stomache since I had my last child. My question is how can I lose all the extra weight and tone up those problem areas without having folds of skin on my abdomen. Is this a problem for anyone out there.

Proud and yet digusted :-S
I went to work today (I work stupid hours...6.30am-8.30am and 3.30pm-7.30pm) and all was ok. But on the way home I had a huge urge to do my old "way home" habit of popping to the garage and buying too much crap and eating it on the way home BEFORE breakfast. I did it! That's the reason I'm proud, but then at home I had the…

What would you do???
MFP says that I should consume about 1,500 calories per day. My diet is so under control that after all my meals and healthy snacks I still have over 400 calories every night. Should I eat something healthy to meet the calories or is it worse to eat before bed? I always hear that you shouldn't eat before bed time and then…
