I saw your profile pic and thought "SURELY this woman does not think she is ugly!" You are incredibly beautiful! Wear that excess skin like a badge of honor, not only for your beautiful children (because that body bore them for 9 months and safely delivered them into this world) but for you! You. The strong, determined…

HAHAHA What a cute puppy lol. I love big dogs. I would also endorse getting a German Shepherd, in case you don't have 10 acres to let the behemoth above roam around :wink:

Ohh! I now crust my chicken & fish with psyllium husks blended with dried spices. I also add psyllium husk to my smoothies. I love having huge breakfast smoothies that I nurse all morning... This one tastes sweet & delicious: 1.5 C kale 1.5 C spinach 1 banana 0.5 C strawberries (sliced) 0.5 C blueberries 2 Tbsp psyllium…

I've recently been diagnosed with migraines, but have had them since I was 10 or so. Dehydration is a major trigger. Caffeine, not so much. Low quality chocolate is a bad one as well. My mother will get them randomly, and there seems to be no trigger. My sister is on a preventative medicine. Hers are triggered by bending…

This goal that the doctor gave you is very possible, but please listen to what your body is telling you. If you feel it is more than you can handle exercising for one hour, break it up into four 15 minute exercises a day. Wake up, walk 15 minutes. Take a break at work, walk (the stairs, if any) for 15 minutes. Swim after…

Hi! I'm 6'0" and currently 187.8 lbs (40/32/45 B/W/H). I tend to be a large in shirts, but only because I need more length for my torso! :) Medium would suit me better right now. I'm a size 12L in pants, but most often need to buy from the tall sections online. I have wide hips, though! Even at 140 lb, I was only an 8/10…

LOL You must be my running twin! I run on an indoor track, and I was about to suggest the same thing, as I lip-sync all of the songs I'm listening to, do air drums or guitar solos with my hands... I look crazy, but when I need motivation I make myself laugh and keeping it fun helps me go longer. On that note, does anyone…

MANGO. It has this undertone of nastiness I can't get over. Hate, hate, hate it.

To be honest, our relationship hasn't worsened or improved. I think maybe the difference between our situations is that my DH and I are able to make the road to a healthy lifestyle a shared journey (same height, weight, age). We are constantly working on it, making shared decisions. It's a deeply bonding experience,…

Vegetarian bowl with black beans, brown rice, hot and corn salsas, guacamole, lettuce, and a small bit of sour cream. I go when I have saved enough calories to really enjoy it, but most times I make a knock off, lower calorie burrito bowl/salad at home :wink:

You are fine, it's just water weight. You could have been retaining water for multiple reasons: dehydration, sodium intake, diet, hormonal changes... I'm sure someone who is more of an expert will come along and explain this better than I can, but that's just the way it tends to go.

I like a big breakfast, but on those days when I have to rush I like a hard boiled egg and a banana. I bake a dozen or so eggs (350 deg for 30 min) each week and use them for snacks and whatnot.

I started using my lunch hour to walk to the gym (13 min each way) and going on the elliptical or stair master. It really built up my leg strength. Now I use my lunch hour to jog at the gym :) I've not been jogging for long, but the small bit of back fat I had left is suddenly gone and I am dropping weight like crazy!

I literally just laughed out loud at work and had to turn it into a coughing fit. My cover is blown, break over. :lol:

I have never seen anyone at the gym (overweight or otherwise) and thought anything else other than "Wow! They are amazing!" Why? Because they are there, and they are sweating, and they are making a difference both in their body and in their mind. Sweat is a trophy! Soreness is a reward! Pushing yourself beyond what you…

That is pretty close! Hi, twin!

Being pinched, no matter how lightly. I absolutely hate it. I reach a totally irrational level of rage. If I wasn't so angry, it would be funny.... but it's not because I'm so disgruntled lol. I've even learned to incorporate these points into the angry rants that follow someone pinching me so that they know that while I…

Hi! I've only ever gotten up to a size 16 (now between a 14 and 12 like you). I have size issues due to my length, though (I'm 6'0" tall) so I have to spend a bit more on the bottoms. If you want to feel just amazing, go to New York & Co.. I went there the other day and I bought my first pair of shorts in 5 years! I'm a…

All in all, my worst date could have been a lot worse, but here is my first date in college story. My first month in college, I got asked out at the university book store. I didn't really date casually, but said okay impulsively (Freshman year, try new things right?). We went to what he called a "family BBQ" that Sunday. I…

I am dealing with the same thing. Try to build up some more muscle. My legs are finally beginning to lose that cellulite look.

I was craving hard boiled eggs, so I had two of those and some Cuban coffee.

My first time running in a high humidity/high heat environment, I wore non-wicking clothing and set out from the house at approximately 6:45 am. I ran 5.5 miles before I realized my sweat wasn't evaporating and my heart was racing. I ran the rest of the way home and promptly passed right out on the living room floor. I…

I don't eat during my lunch hour. I take an hour long walk/run or I hit my office gym. I'll eat my actual lunch throughout the day when I find time.
