  • haha exactly!
  • I think i have a death wish for myself! I just started going back to school, am a first time mommy with an 8 month old, am trying to lose weight, quit smoking and buy a house all at once. Who the hell does that!? I'm trying to just take it one step at a time and right now smoking is at the top of my list since i feel like…
  • this is exactly what the majority of my problem is. stress= overeating & smoking. Makes sense that an overall feeling of well being would reduce the use of both of these things. I had a BAD experience with Prozac years ago so I'm really hoping this doesn't affect me the same way. I was a groggy zombie the whole 2 months i…
  • a lot of the reviews ive read on the weight loss say the PTs just arent interested in food anymore and its a burden to bother with the eating process (cooking, cleaning, driving to get food). is that how you felt? same with cigarettes, they just "forget" about it and after only DAYS of taking it, they are smoke free. I…
  • He mentioned Chantix but I think my weight is what steered him away from it initially. I'm going back in a month to see how its working so if it doesnt help me kick the smoking cravings, I'm sure that'll be his next step. I just find it odd that Welbutrin is for depression, weight loss AND smoking cessation? clearly, I'm…
  • You have a 21 year old?! I thought you were in your late 20's, MAYBE early 30's... WOW! You look phenomenal!
  • This is awesome!!! So proud of you! I'm sending you a PM
  • YES! Im gonna sit back with my bland *kitten* popcorn and wait for the festivities!
  • My friend is JUST like this and I thought she was making excuses for the longest time! after about a mile (maybe less) of just a brisk walk she'd always be behind me itching and really flustered. After about a year of this I realized she wasn't faking it... She was literally in tears and asked if I would walk back to my…
  • Thank you for sharing this. I'll give the 10 minute rule a shot tonight and force myself to drink water in between. Its incredibly weird because I feel 100% motivated but like my self control is hanging at about 6%. You'd think the motivation would be enough to boost my ability to say "no" to myself when I want to raid…
  • I have too much to reply to each of you but to cover the majority: I was eating 1,500ish per day (-1.5/week) and was doing just fine so I decided to lower it to -2lbs/week. I don't know if seeing my "snack allowance" disappear is what has triggered this internal freaking out my body is going through or what. I thought…
  • Honey, you are preaching to the choir. I'm sending you a friend request! We're almost in the exact same boat here and I love having other moms walking in my shoes for motivation.
  • I can't wait until I lose a substantial amount just to call her and ask how Plexus is going. Still living at her mom's house but investing hundreds every month into this scheme all for what? A total of 10lbs? Sad thing is, she needed to lose about 15lbs of baby weight and tone back into her typical self. She isn't big by…
  • Hahaha I'm in sales too so I know all the tricks in the book! You can't pitch to a salesman. I can sniff out BS from a mile away and Plexus smells rancid! I'm good on a car though lol, Just bought one of those a few months back.
  • This! It's different if i get a spammy email or something but when someone you personally know goes all "used car salesman" on you, it irks the hell out of me. Like, B*tch, we were just eating oreos together and I was in the birthing room when you had your kid. Stop preaching about how something is so wonderful that it's…
  • haha I dont know how long it's been around but people are hopping on the bandwagon left and right. I was hit up by 4 friends in a one month span out of no where a couple months back. I had never heard of it either but as soon as I saw the cost, I did more research and that's when I ran into Betty's blog. There are NO…
  • I feel like this all the time OP! All the lake outings that my bikini wearing friends went to, Prom, Senior week, having gorgeous pictures taken, shopping at the name brand stores in the mall...I missed out on all of that or came up with lame excuses when we all knew it was my weight holding me back. I'm only 24 so I know…
  • I feel the same way and I think starting this journey has made me feel even more self conscious and embarrassed because now I KNOW how gross and unhealthy I've let myself become. But I counter those negative thoughts by telling myself that "this is the last day your body will ever look like this. You WILL NOT look/feel…
  • I think you answered this perfectly. Its a mentality thing. I'm used to eating ice cream just because I saw it on TV and it looked good so why not? My friends on the other hand don't crave sweets the way I do which I'm sure plays a big factor in this but I have heard many of them say on more than one occasion that they…
  • YESSSS!! I feel like sometimes I should've just eaten my craving in the first place because after substituting healthier options like yogurt or salted nuts along with fruits and veggies, I went over what my craving would have been.
  • Thanks for the feedback ladies. I was able to stay under my calorie goals yesterday and just ate more fewer calorie foods instead of my normal meals and snacks, to trick my mind into thinking I was actually getting to just eat more. This is a force to be reckoned with for sure!
  • Holy smokes! congratu-freakin-lations!!!!!! This is phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Also, there is no minimum purchase required so you can technically get something for $0, I've been able to do it several times.
  • I think i got more amusement out of this than I should have lol
  • This! I feel like anytime we force kids not to do something, it makes them want to rebel even more as soon as they get a bit of freedom. I mean that in a blanket statement kind of way because this isn't the case for ALL kids or ALL situations but I used to work with a lady that had 4 kids, all under 10 years old. She said…
  • In the box:) super cute!
  • This changes too fast to know who I would be commenting about!!! :)
  • I admittedly don't know a whole lot about the history of make up but was it not first used on men? same goes for high heels? Either way, I agree that my girls will not wear a full face until they're well into their teen years and can properly put it on without looking like Bozo the clown IF the desire is even there for…
