Need to Lose 100 LBS -Robins Thread !

I wish I could respond to posts but after my day today I can't really comprehend what I am reading. I had a pretty taxing end of the day. My boss is an abusive bully and I've finally talked to someone about it. I hadn't realized how unacceptable her behavior had been until I spoke up. At the end of my discussion, I was shaking and my knees were buckling when I was walking back to my desk. When that was done, I had to come home and take a test online for one of my classes. I seriously feel like I was hit my a truck.
My main wish is that I have the strength to do what needs to be done over the next few days and not allow others' actions to hurt my mindset.0 -
This is a great thread! And I hope it's okay to join willy nilly. My goal for this month is to keep my weight loss momentum. I've lost 10 pounds my first two weeks, I want to keep it going.0

First I want to thank everyone for all the support, I just read all the post and was almost crying to due to caring. I know I can lost this weight this time because I want it for me, and I have good people like all of you for support.
@dobarber- WTG on finishing your race!
@Gloria- Stay strong, I have been there too. You can do it!
@Kaye- Best of luck with your knee surgery. My mom had her knee done and it's much better now.
@Rene- I hope things get better for you at work, it terrible to have to work with a boss like that.
Wednesday Wish: *it already came true today! I had to weight myself today and I lost 5lbs. :bigsmile:0 -

End of the day. I succumbed to the temptation to make chocolate chip cookies today. I only ate one, and I am well below calories and carbs for the day so I don't feel too bad. It sure did taste good. I've done really well so far this week on water, too. I don't dislike water and I've never been a soda drinker so its just a matter of remembering to get a drink.
Here's to a happy successful day tomorrow. Kaye0 -
@Robin- thank you. Fortunately I ended up not having to do that. I always try to go with homeopathic remedies before resorting to meds and I got lucky lol. (Menthol cream/oil is awesome!) I still can't figure out what made it hurt in the first place though... unless it was something I did when I was cooking. Oh well- all gone now so all's well that ends well.
Thursday truth: I'm finally converting my family over from prepackaged frozen of boxed meals to fresh meals made from scratch! I've managed to prove to them that cooking from scratch is a ton cheaper than buying the frozen crap... and it tastes better too! For the past few weeks, anytime my dad wants pizza, he comes to me to make it. Well, last night he wanted to get a sack full of Krystals (Sliders, kinda like white castle for those who don't have Krystals in their area). I pointed out that to get a sack of 24, it'd be around 25 bucks and said I could make a dinner for less than 20 for everyone living in the house.
Homemade fried rice and beef and broccoli- $14.51.
Tonight my brother requested we buy chicken pot pies (frozen of course :T) and I suggested again that I make them from scratch. Granted, due to the fact we had to pick up a few extra items it wasn't under 20 bucks- but I made enough filling to last a couple of days with red skinned potatoes, carrots, celery and pearl onions (all fresh!) and have everything needed to make more pie crusts for individual serving size portions of chicken pot pies tomorrow and maybe even the day after! And they taste better and are far more filling (not nearly as much gravy as the store bought pot pies). I feel quite accomplished!
The only problem I see is that I need to start writing recipes down to remember them in the future! (btw- anyone wants any of my recipes feel free to ask. I'll share them all.)0 -
Happy Thursday everyone!
Truly feeling bummed today. Stepped on the scale this morning just to get a sneak peak as to how my week is going and I'm up 1.4. I have no idea how. This week has been pretty good thus far. However, I have only be tracking my calories without attention to really anything else.
What other things are you all tracking nutrition wise besides calories? I really feel as heave as I am and as well as I'm eating and exercising the weight should be coming off, but it just doesn't seem to want to. Ugh!0 -
@skinnyjeanz - I'm hungry all the time, too. In fact I'm starving right now and I just had 2 hard boiled eggs 2 hrs ago. I'm going to have to get a snack soon.
@toots - I'm tired, too. Between work stress and worrying about being hungry (see above) I'm not sleeping well at night.
@pampered - I have no wisdom or advice but want to offer hugs.
@kjeffries - I feel the same way about buffets. And there are always so many yummy choices it's so hard to be good.
@grandmakaye - I'm glad I'm not the only one eating cookies. Yum!
More later...0 -
Good Morning and Happy Thursday!
Thursday Truth~I try not to scale hop, but have this week - I'm so close to see a number on the scale I haven't seen in a very long time, I don't want to miss it! :laugh: I could hit it tomorrow on my official scale day...fingers crossed!@Robin- thank you.

Sometimes when we change things, like diet or exercise, it can take a little while for our body to catch up. Are you drinking enough water? How about fruits and veggies – getting plenty of those? Do you look at your diary at the end of the day? Do you have any macros that are in the red? If so, you may want to make some changes. I track calories, fat, protein, carbs and sodium. Also, what MFP sets up for you isn’t written in stone – you can adjust your macros for carbs, fat, protein, etc. (I worked with a nutritionist awhile ago and she recommended 40% carbs, 30% fat, and 30% protein – it works well for me so I manually changed mine). If you look under settings, you can also adjust the way your diary appears – change the names of the meals, etc., and set to track the stuff that is important to you. This can sometimes be frustrating, you have to play around with things and find what works best for you.. Also, if your diary is open - some of us can take a look and see if we can recommend anything that you might want to change. Hang in there!0 -
@KJeffries -- sweet potatoes are pretty good carbs as these things go though. It's keeping off the white bread, white rice and pasta that I struggle with.
@Reneeileen -- Oh, I hope that talking to someone about your boss will help get some action. It's really hard coping with bullies at work.
@Sogj -- welcome! Yes, you just jump in.
@Ohpampered1 -- congrats on the weight loss!
@Kaye -- I try to bake for my family regularly (I mean, there has to be a benefit of being at home, right?) but I do find baking days hard. It's the 'shrinkage' in the cooking lol.
@Raven -- eating your own food can also be much lower cals as well as not having the additives and sodium. It's much easier to balance things in the way you like, and to make just the right amount.
So, I *did* get off my tush and do dance mat last night, on nice easy settings, and then I got up first thing and went for a run this morning. This is w2d2 of Ease into 5k, and I was a tiny bit faster this time. I might squeeze in a bit more dance mat later depending on how things go.
Enjoy your Thursday!

Thursday truth - this carpal tunnel thing is out of control. I'm in constant pain. So much pain that I'm unable to sleep. The doctor prescribed vicodan to help with the pain and let me sleep. I hate how it makes me feel and I still can't sleep. It's bloody hard to work on reducing when I'm this miserable. Sorry for the rant.
Carpal tunnel - In case you're wondering, anti-inflammatories work until the day they stop working. The frozen gel wrist pad helps some if you're in front of the puter. The 200mg daily of vitamin B6 cure for carpal tunnel is pure hokum, a waste of B6 and time. Pressure points work for about 18 seconds after you've thoroughly aggravated the opposite hand. Those weird wrist bands you wear just below your elbows serve only to cut the circulation off just below the elbow. The spandex wrist braces, tet hose for your hands, are not only sexy but they don't work. Magnets, brass, copper, crystals I didn't even try them, I may be simple but I'm not stupid.
Loving the new (to me) truck. I had them both in the drive while I was stealing parts from the old one, shoulda snapped a picture but it didn't even cross my mind. It was cute, they looked like book ends. I found a really really old yellowed crusty Alabama's greatest hits cassette tape - yeah, my trucks are that old :huh: - in it so my better half named the thing 'Bama.' I don't name cars but that's kinda cute. It is really a joy to not need to do daily roadside tune-ups in order to drive home.

Thursday Truth::: So I told my Mom about me most likely going to college and she told my dad. I didn't tell her not to tell but I was going to wait. Well they are both happy for me. Mom says she will miss me being here (which I am still going to work here through college) but she knows how long I've wanted this and is happy for me. But my dad talked to me this morning and told me that he is proud and happy for me and that he thinks it's the best thing for me and my family. SO that's a huge weight lifted.
But STILL have to look at schedule and everything as far as working and going to school. Because if it doesn't work then I can't do it.
So I pray that this all works out and I can go to college and still work and be able to pay my bills!
Have a great Thursday!!

Awesome, Tina! I'm so happy for you that they are being so supportive! :flowerforyou:

I missed posting yesterday since it was so late when I got home from the Thompson Square concert. Well, actually it wasn't late until I watched the repeat of the debate, but that is neither here nor there.
Wednesday Wish: My wish is that if you sign up for tutoring, you freaking show up on time! I had a parent show up yesterday 45 minutes late and still expected me to be there. I'm sorry. I waited a half hour for you. You didn't call or text to tell me you were still coming. I understand you had other things on your mind, but you still need to be on time!
Thursday Truth: My runs have not been happening as often as I would like them too. My 10K is right at 5 weeks away and I do NOT feel prepared! With only one working treadmill at the complex, it is really hard to get on it when there are other people waiting too. I have been doing more running outside, but even that is getting tough with all the traffic in my area. *sigh* I'll get it sorted out though.
On a good note, I am currently doing well on my low-carb challenge. I am also doing well on my October Miles challenge. 5 down, only 55 more to go! I plan on getting 5 more done this evening.
Hope everyone is doing well. I'll make time to go back through the thread and read everyone's postings later this afternoon. Have a great day!

@toots--you and me both!! My lovely puppy is still going through a lets-wake-mom-up-at-3am-every-night phase that started a few weeks ago for no apparent reason whatsoever. :mad:
wow, you're nicer than me. after that once or twice someone would spending the night in the bathroom :laugh:@toots - I'm tired, too. Between work stress and worrying about being hungry (see above) I'm not sleeping well at night.
yeah, i have insomnia. sometimes it's very bad, like right now, and sometimes it's just tossing and turning for an hour every night before i can sleep. and i don't sleep enough anyway because i work at night.Thursday Truth::: So I told my Mom about me most likely going to college and she told my dad.

@BigAug - At least you didn't find an 8-track tape in the truck. :laugh: Would a cortisone shot help carpel tunnel? Wouldn't that soothe the nerves (at least temporarily)?
@Tina - Grats on the family support. It's all coming together for you.
@Kelley - Love the new profile pic. Sweet kitty.
THursday truth - I still find myself thinking like I did 100 lbs ago. I ran over to the hospital for bloodwork this morning and I kept driving around looking for a close spot... then I realized *smacks forehead* I can WALK now. So, I park and start walking and my heart sunk because I realized I had to climb two flights of stairs *Second forehead smack* .. those are no big deal any longer. yeesh. Am I ever going to feel like the fitter person I really am?0 -
I forgot to post yesterday. Wednesday wish. I wish that once my bfs car is put together that it will work! Turns out it may just be the spark plugs that caused the problems. Would be awesome if it works. Should know today or tomorrow!
Thursday truth I gained back all but 7 lbs of what I had lost, which is half the weight I lost.. I think I need to create a challenge for myself. If I think of one might anyone want to join? I shall think about it during my slow moments at work.
I will post my measurements tonight. I promise!

Aug - sounds like you have run out of options on your wrists - are you contemplating carpall tunnel surgery? Or are you surgery shy since you had the big heart surgery? I hope you get to have the wrist surgery sometime soon as you will be tons better.
Congrats on Bama - I picture it talking back to you as you drive around - "Aug, no we're not going to stop there!"0 -

Aug~Like Robin said, it sounds like you have tried everything to alleviate the carpal tunnel pain. Are you considering surgery? If so, there is now a less invasive (i.e. less recovery, small incision) procedure. They claim back to regular routine in a week! You could do one, recover, and then do the other a few weeks later.0 -
Good morning everyone!
Someone asked what you track. I track Calories, Carbs, Fat, Protein, Sugar, and Fiber. I am also interested in Sodium and Cholest so I push the
at the bottom left under the water consumption and it shows me those also. I have diabetes type 2 and high blood pressure which lead me to those choices.
You can check all the others by running the report for the last 90 days
I finally got my measurements:happy:
Neck = 17
Waist (@navel) =49
Torso (@narrowest) = 46
Hips = 49.5
Thigh R=28.5 L=28.5
Calf R=18.75 L=18.5
upper arm R=18 L=17.75
Chest 49
Body fat =30.98%
BMI=39.9
Have a healthy day!

This article is from SHAPE magazine online:
Q: Can I eat carbs and still lose weight?
A: While eating fewer carbs is essential for optimal weight loss, you don’t need to completely eliminate carbs from your diet. The amount of carbs that you should be eating is based to two things: 1) How much weight you need to lose and 2) Where on your body you need to lose the weight.
When people talk about cutting carbs or eating a low-carbohydrate diet, the Atkins Diet or a ketogenic diet approach often come to mind (which conjures up images of bacon, grease, and spoonfuls of peanut butter straight from the jar—not the epitome of good health). But there’s a lot of room in the carb-cutting spectrum between what the average person eats (the daily recommended value for adults is 300g carbohydrates) and the extremely low-carb ketogenic diet (usually less than 50g carbohydrates per day). Diets aren’t one size fits all, and different levels of carbohydrate intakes work best for different people. There’s even research to prove it.
In one study from Tufts University, subjects followed one of two calorie-restricted diets for 18 months:
Group 1: A traditional higher-carbohydrate, low-fat diet
Group 2: A moderately carbohydrate-reduced diet similar to The Zone (40 percent total calories from carbohydrates with an emphasis on fruits and vegetables over grains).
What was so interesting about this study was that after 18 months, both groups of dieters lost the same amount of weight, regardless of which plan they followed.
The researchers then dug a little deeper into each participant's physiology, focusing specifically on insulin sensitivity (a measure of how well your body accepts and distributes carbs). They found that people with poor insulin sensitivity (i.e. their bodies were not as good at dealing with carbs) lost more weight on the Zone-type diet than on the low-fat diet, while those with good insulin sensitivity lost weight on either diet.
What Does This Mean for You?
If you are relatively lean, you probably have good insulin sensitivity and you should be able to lose weight by just reducing your overall calorie intake (and exercising). If you want to accelerate your weight loss, you’re going to need to restrict your carbohydrates a little more aggressively.
How Can You Tell If You Have Poor Insulin Sensitivity?
Body fat that is centered around your midsection is an easily identifiable red flag. If this is you, you need to shift the carbs in your diet away from grains and more towards vegetables, fruits, and some protein for best weight-loss results. This will reduce the total carbohydrates in your diet while also decreasing the amount of faster-acting carbohydrates, which mimics the carbohydrate-restricted diet used in the above study.
As your weight loss begins to plateau, shift more of your carbs towards fruits and vegetables and away from grains and starches. You’ll see the scale start to move in the right direction again.
The Bottom Line
It’s not about eliminating all carbohydrates from your diet but instead restricting carbs to the level that makes you feel best and lose the most weight. If you have trouble finding your sweet spot, talk to your doctor or schedule an appointment with a nutritionist who can help you determine the best strategy for your body.

NSV ALERT!! This morning I was rushing to get out of the house and grabbed a pair of pants that my wife had bought last week for me. I just went to the bathroom and got curious about the size because these actually fit better than my previous 46-30 pants. They are 44-30's! Weird part is. 46-30s fit perfectly at the beginning of summer and I am actually 11 pounds heavier now than I was then. I guess all the running did something for me!:bigsmile:

Thursday Truth:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-18770328
According to the above site, when I first started, I was heavier than %97 of American women my height and age range and a fractionally small percentage of the world was heavier than me, so they just rounded up and said I was fatter than %100 of women in my category world wide.
Yikes!
Well, I have great news for me, but some scary truth for American women. I'm now under the average weight of an American woman my height and age range. Problem is, I'm still almost 40 pounds over my ideal weight and 20 pounds over the highest healthy weight for my height. I'm also still heavier than %75 percent of the rest of the world's women my height and age range.
Still, the biggest truth out of all that is this: In less than a year, I went from being fatter than %97 percent of the population of the fattest nation in the world to being thinner than half of that nation. It can be done, and it won't even take forever!0 -

:laugh: Hi everyone sorry I didnt make it on yesterday. Ythe hubby and I got busy outside cleaning up the yards and doing dump runs. I caved and had a soda and candy bar on one of the said dump runs so then tried to figure out how to count the exercise I was getting so I could counterbalance it but never did figure it out. Oh well ended up being a moot point since we were busy enough I still didnt go over for the day and I kow for myself I got lots of exercise for the day I am sitting here drinking (chewing) my morning smoothie since without thinking I choose a lot of fruits today with skins and they just dont juice down as well in the blender. I always leave the skins on since I know they are a high source of the nutrients an vitamins but try to choose only one or two per smoothie like just grapes or just apples with berries. Oh well it still tastes good just a little added texture:laugh: So my truth for Thursday is Not weight related. My hubby and I are not quite arguing right now. Our last child left for college this year and all of a sudden he thinks I need a job. While I am not opposed to working totally I was looking forward to some downtime. We have been married for twenty years and I worked fourteen of those years while being a full time wife and mother. I think I resent the fact tht he is making me feel like I no longer contribute since the kids are grown. I know he has always worked very hard and will continue to do so but I also know that when he is home he has to do nothing and I spoil him rotten and treat him like a king. I wnat to know when I am supposed to get that same time of spoiling and doing nothing?0

Thursday truth: although I am in this for the long haul I *often* feel I cannot make enough progress in real hard scale-related numbers to get where I need to go. I have another year now as I found out this week my health insurance will be available for the next calendar year (at an increased price but available). Then who knows. I feel I need a normal or close to normal BMI and to be off my HP medicine in order to shop for medical coverage for a retired under age 65 person. Those goals are like a voyage to Mars for me.
Does anyone have any experience in talking to their doctor about stopping medication for high blood pressure? If so, what were the circumstances? If that's not too personal, I'd appreciate some advice.
Well, that's my mountain to climb or the elephant in the room if you prefer. :-}
Time to have a cup of water. How about you? :drinker: :drinker:

@Robin, kah68, and MyM0wM0w - I apologize, I forgot to mention that the first surgery is scheduled for October 15. Part of this elevation in pain deal is that I stopped (surgeons orders) taking otc pain relievers and vitamins. I did the cortisone shots last year and they worked for a while but Doc doesn't wan't to dope me again if we're just gonna cut. Sorry, in all my grumperology I am a little forgetful.
@linder - I mentioned it to my cardiologist, now that my BP and cholesterol numbers are better than his, he said no.
