That moment you read the entire that moment thread and realize you also ate two lunches instead of one... eek! no supper for this girl tonight! That moment that you finally understand that your happiness is not directly linked to the scale number, but to the ability you have to control yourself and make yourself better. Oh…

It is interesting to me how different everyone is. I can't eat breakfast either or it is over for the day unless I am going to be too busy to even see food for the rest of the day. Only coffee until about 2pm, then a 500 calorie lunch, and then the other 1000 or so after I get home from work till I go to bed.

I am about 10 pounds over the low end of my healthy weight, and I think I could lose that 10 and feel better... ooooor I could pick up some weights and feel better. But at the moment I am just gonna be mostly happy with where I am at till my schedule clears up in a few months.

they don't irritate me but there are a lot that crack me up. "you should just go to the gym and then you can eat whatever you want" Do they even know that I could put away a whole German chocolate cake all by my lonesome? How many hours do they think I have to spend on the elliptical? "are you losing weight to catch a…

I use jergens and it hasn't ever made me orange. I was just thinking I need to go buy some before summer dress season starts in earnest!

Oh honey, I know the root, I have two jobs, one at night and one during the day, two kids, two dogs, and I am in the middle of planning a move. So for now, a magic potion to keep me awake during my few free hours so I can do laundry and eat, sounds like... well... magic! :wink:

I have low iron and am cold all the time, but I can't take an iron supplement because it makes me sick as a dog :/

short of just throwing in the towel and going straight for cocaine there is not much I wouldn't do for some energy, does the zipfizz work different than the gallons of coffee I drink?

10 years ago if I wanted to lose weight I just thought about it really hard and skipped bread for a few days. now if I am not monitoring what I eat with some consistency the scale will start to creep up. I think it is because I am busier now, not paying attention to how many little bites I take off my kids plates, or while…

women's jeans make me feel like a mom (which I am, but I am absolutely not looking for mom butt) I have tried on lots of brands thinking I could find a pair that didn't have this effect but not so far. Arizona jeans at JC Penny has started a curvy line so they are awesome. I am also almost 5'10 and have never found women's…

One of my favorite parts of going out to eat with friends is trying each other's food, I guess I have to be careful who I eat with.

On the weekend I am leaving my 12 year old with family while I leave for a girls weekend, I'll be losing about 90 pounds.... and then gaining back 5 or 6 worth of whiskey.

He is just feeling insecure, he thinks if you get to a healthy weight you will run around with the other cats and leave him behind. Just sit down with him and explain that he is the only cat for you, that you are on this journey only for you, and you really want HIM with you for it.

The fact that I find a new gray hair every time I look in the mirror, and that my laugh lines have stopped going away when I am not actively laughing, have ruined that whole "wow you look so young!" thing for me. Oh well :)

If I was feeding that many cats the answer to weight loss would be easy, there is no way I could afford food for them and me! Good luck on the site :)

my guy throws everything away and it makes me crazy! I spent a week with him last month and I put all the leftovers in the fridge, when my plane landed in my town he called and said, "I'm shipping your leftovers out to you tomorrow, for those starving kids in Africa." The brat. It all ended up in the trash despite me. I…

my face and arms.

I am never hungry after a workout. Or on days that I am particularly busy. Now on my days off when I have done nothing but binge on Netflix I want to eat everything. That hasn't ever really changed for me, so I plan for it. During the week while I am busy I net less so I can eat more while I sit on my couch like a lump.

The right or happy thing cracked me up, my family and I all agree that it is simply impossible to be happy if we are not right :)

unpredictable for sure. I have found that the weekends when I say forget it, are not at all what causes weight gain. It is the months when I think I am eating "ok" but not really paying attention.

I don't mind. People are curious, or jealous, or making conversation, or thinking that they are complementing. I think it just depends on if you are a private person or not. Im not so they can bring on their questions or comments. If I was private I am certain I could come up with some fantastic smart *kitten* replies for…

Why thank you, the whole, "even a broken clock is right twice a day" thing :)

I am guessing you are wondering how to lose weight when they can't get your thyroid to an optimum level. The answer is the same as for everyone else, eat less than you burn. The only difference is you might be allowed less calories that someone who has a perfectly functioning thyroid. It can still be done I promise. It…

I am feeling completely stupid right now, so feel free to point it out, but if gender for women is 0 that last part of the equation for women would be 0 in every single equation right? And then I figure mine and at 21.5 BMI I ended up with 44% BF. So maybe it is too early in the morning for me to be jacking around with…

Yep I was on it for migraines too, Made me stupid, and forgetful, and then what finally made me quit (forgetting to set my parking break and having my car drift across a huge parking lot was mostly just funny) was when my fingers started moving without me telling them too, I looked like I was playing air piano anytime I…

from the sounds of it you were not on a very strict lifestyle anyway since you said you would do it for a bit and lose control and binge on sweets. So even if LCHF had the ability to ruin your metabolism I doubt it does when not being adhered to. I say don't worry about you, you tried it, it wasn't for you just go back to…

I used ACV to rinse my hair today. Sadly I still weighed the same after but my hair is very pretty!

I am 5'9 my SW was 163, and my CW is 145. I would love to lose the lower belly pudge, but I am fast losing the curves that my guy loves so I am stopping here for now. I am still very "healthy" looking at this weight though, not too skinny at all, at 163 my pants got too tight and I was tired of having to tuck my stomach…

the answer here will be, don't do it again. Plug in your stats to the website, and eat a more enjoyable diet sticking to your calorie goals.

It does motivate me to move... and it lets me tell people, "I told you I sleep like crap!" :)
