Question for the women
I get extrememly bloated when, I'll say when Aunt Flow, comes to town for her monthly visit (LOL). My stomach expands so much I feel like I'm a couple of months pregnant. I know it always goes away in a few days, but it's a bit discouraging when you wake up one day and you pants are feeling a little more snug, even though…

Out of the loop
Alright so things have been a little crazy the last couple of weeks and this week looks to be crazy too. I haven't been able to work out much or log my food even. I've put on a couple of pounds too. :grumble: I had planned to get back in the saddle tomorrow but Friday night my dad called and said he's coming for a…

When I do hit goal weight what do I eat?
I have been counting calories now for months. I have ate 1,200 a day for as long as I can remember. What happens when I hot the goal weight? How many do I eat to maintain? How many equal weight gain?

Wow
I am watching the Discovery channel currently, and they've said that apparently cutting your caloric intake and putting your body in starvation mode actually slows the aging process. They've done studies with rats that shows those who eat less live longer. Counterintuitive, isn't it? There's even a society of people called…

Off the subject
My 7 y/o gets the smallest cold and it knocks her on her *kitten*... well, that's the way she acts. Is there anything I can give her to boost her immune system besides childrens vitamins? ~Joanna:flowerforyou:

But really what I discovered was, I am trying way to hard.... I cannot go on a strict diet, but instead, change my life style. Its so easy when you have a friend to tt and…

Makeup and Skin Care
I know this is a little off topic but with all the discussions about body image, struggles, feelings, and triumphs I think makeup deserves to be mentioned as well. A lot of energy and money is spent to improve our bodies. It costs more money to eat healthier, we're all too familiar with the struggle to find the proper…

Coldstone
I don't know if you guys know, but Coldstone Creamery posts their nutritional values on mix-ins, toppings, icecream, EVERYTHING on their website. Its actually not as bad as I thought it was either, calorie wise. In the like-it size Birthday Cake Remix, its 635 calories, I thought it was at least 1,000, because it comes…

No wonder I was fat!!!
I have been using this site for a little over 9 weeks and have lost 22 pounds. I have never really cheated but there were a few times I went over my calorie allowance but nothing bad. I haven't had a week that I gained or didn't lose. Every single week I lost something and I am ahead of myself on my weight loss goals too.…

To eat breakfast or not to eat breakfast?
If I eat in the morning I'm ravenously hungry until I eat lunch and I tend to eat more. Generally I don't eat anything in the morning at all because of this. Does eating a little something help jumpstart your metabolism? Would it be a better idea to eat something small and ignore the ravenous hunger? Thanks...

Gloating and Bragging.
haha, I went shopping today with my mom to buy her an outfit for a party she had tonight, and I decided that, hey, I should try on that cute jacet, because it's on sale for 5 dollars. I tried on an Extra Large... and it was too big. So I tried on a Large... and that was too big, too. So I got to buy the Medium! that was…

The less I eat, the more trouble I have sleeping!
This happens everytime I start eating healthy!! I have cut my calories significantly. I figured I was eating about 3400 calories a day which is way too much, but now I am down to approximately 1200 and am having a horrible time sleeping. I am not currently exercising because I am detoxing from smoking and am waiting to…

Any other "slow losers"?
Hey everyone! I just wanted to put out a search for anyone who like me, is on a slow track to lose a (smaller?) amount of weight. I started on the site weighing in at 150 at 5' 4". That was on July 20th. Two months later I'm at 144.5. That's right folks. Two solid months of being a very good girl and I've lost only 5.5…

Just Married ????
Oh! That was 47 years ago today. I was in the Marines and weighed all of 145 pounds. The weight came slowly, then I quit smoking 16 years ago and it took off, before I knew it I was pushing 260 and in poor health. I found MFP completely by accident and decided to give it a try. I normally check in on Sunday, stepped on the…
