Seriously. Just ridiculous the price up here.

I ended up quitting after 12 years of smoking because a family friend died in a head-on car crash from a drunk driver. It was a real wake-up call that she died through no fault of her own, and I was sitting there killing myself on purpose. My mom and I quit together cold turkey, and it was really hard. Every time I wanted…

I wouldn't log this, only because it doesn't raise my heart rate. Each to their own, but why log something that doesn't give you cardiovascular benefit?

It can be done, but not forever. I am married to my long-distance relationship, but it didn't stay long distance for more than a year.

Cheeseburger - taco shells hurt me every time. Fish sticks or nuggets?

Metro.co.uk tells me the following: Fat people are stupid: Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University found that the brains of obese people had to work harder to achieve the same results as those of slim people. Attractive people are cleverer than ugly people: A study by Satoshi Kanazawa of LSE found that physical…

Get those frozen "cheesecake bites" that are much smaller portions than a real piece of cheesecake, then work those measured calories into your day. A taste now and then might help keep you on track versus trying to fit a large piece in.

I've lost 25 so far, and am not really exercising regularly yet. All I did was drink mostly water and coffee all day instead of pop and juice, bring my own lunch of protein and veg/fruit instead of eating out, and cut out all junk food (other than a random treat from a coworker or whatever). Just eating at a deficit is…

Every time you face another food or exercise choice, you get the chance to start again. Just start making those good choices again, and it'll all come right back to you :)

Varagesale is my best friend. Hardly used items for very affordable prices. (I work for the Courts, I can't look homeless and drowning in my clothes, so frequent top-ups and replacements are needed)

Do they need to be exclusive of one another? :open_mouth:

Keep 'em coming. This is awesome.

I'm Laurel from Canada! Feel free to add me for support and enthusiasm.

Following as my husband loves the stuff, and I have no idea what to do with it besides add mayo etc.

I wish I had taken photos and measurements at the very beginning. Curious to know what my final loss measurements would have been, but that's ok! Good work, you are on a roll!

I am just over 20 pounds down from my highest weight, and getting close to being under 200 lbs. This is my next mini-goal - 199.8, which will be less than I have weighed in about 7 years.

Can I just keep Sam Heughan as my pet?

Anyone looking for support, please feel free to add me. We all need a kick in the butt now and again, and honestly the "starting over" thing literally happens with EVERY food choice and exercise time choice you make. It's not "day by day", but second by second every time you make a decision. You can do this :)

Hi Lydia, welcome :) You've taken the first step just by being here! There are some super helpful posts to get you started, hopefully someone can link them for you. Add people as friends for support and love :)

Wearing her fantastic shirt!

Wait for it... haha

I am not a vegetarian, but still love to eat veggie Subway subs and veggie pizza. It just tastes good. You don't have to have a label to eat what you want.

Starting over (again) and various such titles
