Check your food BEFORE you go out!
I went to dinner at Olive Garden this afternoon. I asked the waitress if she could suggest anything 'light' on the menu. She suggested the Shrimp Caprese. Looked innocent enough. angel hair pasta, grilled shrimp, tomatoes and a "light butter sauce" Just looked it up ....1533 calories! add that to the bowl of soup and…

HELP! Plateau frustration.
I am so very frustrated. My weight has not budged in 3 weeks. I read, re-read, and then read Banks plateau thread on my head. I upped my calories. I lowered my calories. I ate 1800 without exercise in a day. I upped my exercise (which I now crave and will not change for anything) to 5-6 days a week 40-60 minutes a day…

TELL ME IT'S OK NOT TO EXERCISE
I usually workout 6 days a week, Sunday is my rest day. But I hurt my back doing a 90 minute kickboxing video. I have even had to take muscle relaxers. I like to workout on Saturdays because it is usually a heavier calorie day. I know I need to take today off to rest my back, but I feel so guilty. I am going to try to…

What do you do about the naysayers?
So, I've lost enough weight by now that most people have noticed. I would like to lose another 20 pounds or so (somewhere between 125-130.) However, when I tell people that I still want to lose anything, they all look at me like I'm NUTS. Just to put this in perspective, I was in the obese BMI range 5 pounds ago. I am by…

Starting tomorrow....
I have come on here before stating that my love of Captain and Diet Soda has been ruining my weight loss goals. I gave up all alcohol for an entire week, trying to give it up forever. That didn't get me very far, to say the least. Not being one to fall down and stay down, I am getting up and trying again, though this time…

Over a week ago, my right big toe, on the bottom, started going numb (it feels asleep and numb, I dunno it's weird). Since I'm on campus, the closest medical center is here and I went there. Last week, I saw an FNP on campus and he had me get some blood tested to see what the cause is. He's under the impression that it's a…
