Frustrated-OT
I know that these forums are to be used as weight loss tools and all that jazz, but y'all are the only "friends" I have (besides the hubby) and I need to vent and maybe get some suggestions. I have been job hunting for two years. My current job isn't terrible, I don't have dramatic people, I don't have crazy bosses....but…

How do you keep friends from being fattening?
I'm starting to dread the fact that every time I eat out with friends for a meal, I go over my daily calories - and usually quite a lot. I joked with them last time that they were fattening! When I eat at home, I do pretty good. What if, when I know I'm having dinner out with friends, I eat nothing else the rest of the…

Need advice.. (from the women! Men beware!)
Around the time of the month I crave everything, feel like I'm starving no matter what I eat, and HATE to even hear the word exercise much less do it. Honestly...I have NEVER stayed on a diet during this time and it always puts me back a week or two (which means I only really get one week worth of progress a month!) What's…

Scared
Does anybody else got scared as they approached their goal? I'm a lousy one who lets the scale dictate her mood for the day. Not only do I weight in daily and take seriously every pound up (as if I didn't know that eating something salty in the evening influences my water weight and that not everything the scale shows is…

I'm back!
I hate to admit it, but I certainly fell off the band wagon and reasoned myself away from this site... I'm not sure why and it doesn't make a whole lotta sense. It was almost as if I was afraid to keep going. I lost 5 lbs and didnt' think I could keep up with my "luck." I know it's not luck, but my brain works in crazy…

No excuses; just another reminder of what I (we) already kno
So, today was a weigh-in day, and I've lost 0.6 lbs over the last two weeks. I started to get a little disappointed, and then I thought about it more. Not excuses, just things I know - I WAY overate (and overdrank) yesterday. I didn't have enough water yesterday. I did not have the best two weeks of following a healthier…

BWL Smurfettes and Papa Smurf 10/8
Good Morning, Smurfettes! I figured I'd get us started today since I didn't see the threat. I have been out of the loop for a few days.

i admit it. I fell off the bus.
I've not been to MFP in weeks. I've lurked a little on the forum, but I haven't been logging my food, only my VERY occasional exercise. And I'm gaining the weight back. :ohwell: I don't know what happened. I guess I just got lazy and busy at the same time. I'm not gaining a lot, in fact, I don't REALLY know if I'm gaining…

Gallbladder Surgery
I am having Gallbladder Surgery this week.... I know that I will be down for at least 6-8 weeks for weight resistance training and the eliptical. My doctor advised I can walk outside/treadmill. Has anyone else had this surgery. Any suggestions or advice? Thanks, MoMac
