that even though you have been exercising regularly for 6 months some days you can't wait to exercise and some days you do everything you can to justify skipping exercise and that the drive comes from within to just do it! that you don't loose the weight evenly. I have a lot to loose still but I have lost 56 and my pant…

I do use that site. I tried about 5 low carb recipies from pintrest and we didn't like them. most of the soup recipies are thickened with flour amd I can't have wheat...daughter is allergic to almonds so I'm kinda stuck on a thickener....I tried coconut flour and it soaked up all the juice and made my soup grainy. I like…

lol how did everyone's WI go yesterday? I stayed the same but my new jeans are already loose so I'm not getting excited yet...just keep plugging away!! found a new form of exercise..skating which I'm not good at but it's super fun. lots of nsv this week so spirits are up pants sizes going down and eventually the scale will…

looking good!!!

well my walk today had me holding up my pants lol so I feel you. my husband and I were walking downtown to go for lunch I had a dress that came past my knees and my underwear fell rigjt to my ankles. I was so embarrassed but I knew if I bent down to pull them up everyone would see. I stepped out and we walked to the car…

I went skating with my son tonigjt. haven't been on skates since I was a kid and I couldn't skate well 30 years ago but I skated for an hour had a blast and can't wait to go back next week. before I started in may I would have sat on the bench and watched but tonight I was saying do you mind if I do one more lap before we…

percentages good idea!!! I don't even care if people know what I weighed it's more just once they know you lost 55 pounds then they ask next month and if I haven't lost it puts pressure on me and it's private for me not others :smile:

thanks sunny bunny until I saw it in print I didn't think too much of the stress but it really affected me so I'm hoping now that that is back in check that's what it is.

thanks kp that was very insightful. I know it's a lot of weight in short time amd 50 of it was actually from may 7th to Sept 1. I'm not worried about it coming off slow slow is good good insight thanks. maybe I need to give more time before changing what was working! artificial sweetner does make me crave sugar and I…

lori I was at 1650 when loosing...somehow it went to 1550. had a few weeks not loosing so I went to 1450...still no loss head down bully through :wink: catawampus I don't eat exercise calories back and I weigh my food. I tried doing settings and it told me 1200 calories which seams low when i am 237 pounds and was 1650…

I was thinking about that. I don't snack between meals but if I cut out nigjt snack it would be more hours between dinner at 530 and breakfast at 8?

I'm in!! this game is so much mental!!! I ate something can't remember what a couple weeks ago cause no one was home to see me!! I haven't done that since starting and I told myself how silly it was because this battle is between me myself and I and I saw it lol!!

I second the clothes. no one really noticed my 56 poind loss (other than family) but I hadn't bought new work clothes. I wore clothes to work that fit and 3 people in the same day commented on my loss. how do you answer the "how much have you lost question?" for me it's my personal challenge and that number is private....I…

I feel this big time!! it's like an inner warior

thanks ks for the inspiration and the smile moonkat. glad you are enjoying your vacation...even with the vampires an's you will make up for it at the gym:)

how is everyone doing this week? I'm looking forward to moonkat return as I like her quotes I can't post from Android phone. I am looking forward to WI tomorrow....if I don't loose I don't care cause I've had a great week and I know it! what do you all think about the theory of not loosing weight as easily in fall winter…

I go for hikes on Fridays only day I have a partner and a day off to go. it's was pouring rain and cold and I was all bummed and said screw it I'm going anyway and did and I feel great!!! had I not gone in tje rain I'd have sat around all day like a lump and ate too much!! yay I feel so much more in control of my diet and…

I struggle with weekends too lately. for my water I'm going g to try and drink more herbal teas as it's cold and I'm not getting water in. my am walks have been good I've kicked it up to add my lunch ones back in. ebony I'm like you with cheats they turn into a week so I'm best not too.…

good day gortilitA!! moonkat sounds like fun in Texas....must be a hot walk! today was great first day I started walking again since before summer as it was too hot mid day. glad to get back into the habit....tomorrow I want to hike.

haha that's awesomme but you know sharing clothes with a 17 year old means her stealing your clothes

amazing!!!!! as someone that completed a half marathon and that almost killed me your triathlon is so amazing what a great accomplishment you should be proud. ...I'd be wearing a I completed a triathlon shirt under my clothes every day!!!

I'm so sorry about your dad. my dad is in a similar situation but the damage is to a different organ due to diabeties. I know what you mean about beople not taking it seriously. I was diognosed prediabetic may 5and started here on the 7th...normal numbers last month and 56 pounds down.....thank you for reminding me why I…

56 pounds down with lchf since may....and even better than the loss I feel amazing!!

I have a diet dr pepper once a month and quite enjoy it too. but lately a few more diet cokes snuck in there so I'm good with the once a month but the rest need to stop.

I told myself I wast buying any lol but I broke down....you feel so good when you but on a pair that fit. I buy one pair of jeans and one dress pant and they are tight in the store and at the end of the month they are soo loose everyone deserves one pair of good fitting pants!! I try thrift shops but can't always find them…
