I was able to button jeans (easily, with a little slack) that did not fit me 3 weeks ago...and I was able to fit my cell phone in the front pocket without struggling and maneuver my whole hand in there to grab it instead of the thumb and forefinger pincer grab at the edge of the pocket. A small victory until I looked at myself in a full length mirror and saw my squishy, soft apron belly hanging over each side of the front seam...ughhh. The inside of both thighs are now collapsing into layered rolls of skin..and I still have over 160 lbs to go...ughhhh. I am secretly hoping "melted" is a turn on for someone out there.
The good news? The "girls" are still filling their cups to capacity ..for now.. and I saw car seat fabric between my thighs...which means my tummy and thighs are smaller. When I sit my belly rounds out like a basketball instead of spreading out and around like Jabba the Hutt is lounging across my lap.0 -

Are you confessing to secret woodchucking?
I don't think woodchucking is generally a secret that would garner a confession... Every time we toss out a piece of paper, we're generally chucking wood.
Maybe he's confessing to wasting too much paper. 
You win the internet today! Bows down and then run away embarrassed.
lol! Thank you, thank you.

I did notice that you were gone , but assumed that you were having a busy weekend.
@nonoelmo Those pictures are beautiful!
@orangesmartie You encouraged me yesterday, I'm encouraging you today: You can do this! Think positive thoughts and tell yourself that you've got this and that those biscuits have no power over you. I'm sure you'll rock that mountain climb, too!! 
The walk should be a piece of cake after conquering a mountain, right?
I can have cake after I climb the mountain???
Ha!
Glad to hear you guys went to the zoo again...Charlie really is one lucky little boy! Did you get in another 8 miles of walking while there?0 -

Thats great! I know it seems like a long road ahead, but the small victories are whats worth celebrating and what will keep you going!1 -
I wasted calories on bad ice cream today.
At least the burgers I got after were pretty good.0 -

No we only did 5 today. Charlie spent a lot of time playing on the adventure playground and I spent time reading my kindle0 -
Confession (sort of) I was lined up and ready for Zumba class again when I talked my daughter out of it. We'd already spent 1.5 hours shoveling and raking dirt and rocks for a museum project. The we'd hit the weight room and lifted legs, then jumped on the eliptical for 35 minutes. I was tired and sweaty. We are going to run a hilly route tomorrow. and if she wants to do so we'll swim this afternoon. I don't feel guilty. Just ready for a little nap.0

POF, nice job on the 5K! Wooo Hooo!
I signed daughter and I up for one July 4th. I have trained exactly one day, 1.5 miles. I just plan to finish and if it is under 32-33 minutes I'll be delighted!! I told daughter she does not have to run my pace (she says she will) b/c she is much faster than me. I did try to train a couple of other days but had some calf issues and decided to not push a hurting calf.0 -
@atypicalsmith (I think it was you) and POF - I agree on the Therapeutic Riding. My son (multiple things including autism) has done this for several years and after a few years break from it (his choice) he wants to do it again. I'm working on the application forms this weekend.0

Welcome to the new posters and I know there were other comments I wanted to reply to, but I will have to check back in later.0

Confession... I had a cheat meal yesterday (Jersey Mikes Sub) then went for another bike ride afterwards (38+ total for the day) so I went to the store and bought some gelato and ate half the container. Still lost weight. I like this idea... lol0

I hope this went ok. I worry about your son now too!0 -

I'm in book-mourning as I've just finished the latest book in the Song of Ice and Fire series (Game of Thrones for you tv people) and the next one isn't even finished being written. Boo!
I'm not sure if book-mourning is a real phrase, but I know several people on this thread will know exactly what I mean.
If that isn't a real phrase it definitely should be. I know I've felt it before and I probably will again.
I totally get book-mourning, especially after a series. (I'm looking at YOU, Rick Riordan!)
ME TOO!!! I read constantly. One of my favorite series is by Patrick Rothfuss. The first book is called The Name of the Wind. The series isn't finished and the waiting for book 3 has been DREADFULLY long.
ETA - Also, The Song of Ice and Fire series is amazing. I totally understand your mourning. Also, I loved Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series! I think we might have similar taste in books!
I didn't read that first series mentioned, you quoted me and another poster (@spamarie). I've read Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, his Heroes of Olympus series, and his Kane Chronicles and loved all of them! I really enjoy kid-friendly books that have good plots.
Sway by Amber McRee Turner is a really amazing child friendly book. I loved it
Ooh, I LOVE getting book recommendations that I might actually be able to read! Thank you!
I actually went through my Kindle the other day and was going to write down all the one I thought you might like but I thought you might think that was weird
I definitely wouldn't! I love to read, but there are so few books that I'm able to read due to my phobia, and I'm also afraid to go LOOKING for books because I don't know how to determine how "safe" they are. I'd love any recommendations you could give me.Susieq_1994 wrote: »Oh, also not so much a confession, but I know there was a lot of discussion about cauliflower as a substitute for things on this thread a few (well a lot of) pages back... I finally got around to making 'cauliflower rice' (aka cauliflower haha) and had it with curry I made from scratch. Consider me converted, it's amaaaazingggg. So few calories, so much yumminess!
Told you so! I was the one who brought that up, actually; I'd be happy to share my mixed fried cauliflower rice recipe if you want to try another one!
Oh that sounds delicious! @Susieq_1994 - would you please share the mixed fried cauliflower rice recipe? Also, if you have a recipe for a cauliflower-type cheesy fake mashed potato dish, I'd love that, too!
Sure, I'll send it to you in a private message. I'm personally not a fan of replacing potatoes with cauliflower (I don't think the taste or texture come close enough), so I've never tried that particular substitution. But the rice is really close, enough that you hardly notice the difference at all!
@KrisiAnnH I'll send it to you as well.
Someone may have already done this, but maybe a recipe thread in the group would be a good idea?
It hasn't been done, but it IS a pretty good idea! Recipes tend to fly around here--I know I've shared tons of them with people in this thread, both through PM and through just posting them here.
I would love a centralized location for recipes. I have missed so many of them and there are just too many pages to go thru to find them.0 -
I am wearing a skirt today (which happens maybe twice a year) and every time I go in the bathroom I check out my butt and do a little shake thing because I like the way the skirt moves
I love skirts. I do this with dangly earrings and bracelets and necklaces. I love to hear them jingle.0 -
Me too!! @Susieq_1994 will you please start one? With your cauliflower rice?
I don't like cooked cauliflower as a rule, but maybe I'll like that.
I don't like many cooked veggies.
