How about "You're losing too much weight, I can see you collar bones." :huh: Wait...You can see my collar bones!!! :happy:

Make sure you sign up for whichever race of your choice with at least 6 other people. Be sure to start at the very front and hold hands so that you span the width of the road so nobody can get by. Then....walk.....very......very....slowly.... And tell everyone who complains that you're in the way that they are rude and…

My brother was in boot camp over Thanksgiving a few years ago. A family hosted him. Thank you, thank you for doing this!! :flowerforyou: It will mean much to their families. If you have internet, you can easily get Skype. I bet they would like to do anything that the rest of the world considers normal. They may like to…

This was interesting. My BMI was lower then most in my country, but higher then most globally. That is, until I put in 30 for my age instead of 29. I turn 30 next week. Magically, moving up to the next age bracket means my BMI will be lower then the majority both locally and globally by a significant percentage. I hope…

There is really no secret. You have to want it more then anything else. You have to get to the point where you can't, not do it. For me it was about taking back control of my own life and not letting my feelings (good or bad), or the opinions of others dictate my behavior. It is also about not giving up just because you…

Chest and rear are the first to leave. Then my thighs, a little bit. Everywhere else hangs on. It's sad.

..when people say, "You know you'll never be as skinny as (insert name of some skinny girl), you're just too big boned. :huh: Yes, that was helpful.

Congratulations!! :wink: I had severe morning sickness with both of my kids. I was sick all day, every day for most of the 9 months. I was in the hospital for dehydration both times and got many IV's through work after it being ok'd by my Dr, in order to stay out of the hospital. So, depending on how bad your morning…

You look awesome! Great work! Thank you for your success story!

Way too many factors and "what if's" for it to be black and white but... ...if the fat guy got stabbed in the gut with a short knife, he may be more apt to survive the stabbing since his vital organs would be less likely to be affected. However, he may die from a heart attack or stroke due to the increase in blood pressure…

I have too many.... :-/ I use the treadmill at work, so...I don't want to run there because I look stupid when I run and I don't want someone looking at me. The closest gym is 30 miles away and I don't have the money for gas or time to go there. It's too…

I might try this diet, if nothing else works! I will be 30 this month, so hopefully I'm not headed for menopause quite yet. Thanks though!

Thanks to everyone for their replies! I don't really wear make up during the week and I don't go to a gym, so I use my own towels. I have used Proactiv and other products, but they have not worked for me. I read in a homeopathic book that using coconut oil instead of soap or cleanser helped with break outs since it…

I think my diet is pretty balanced and I usually wash after exercise. I will try to drink more water. Could be hormonal; it seem to get worse during my TOM.

I have had 2 healthy children. I lost weight with both just simply because I was extremely sick almost the whole time. My babies did not suffer, however, if I could have done something about it, I would have gladly gained a little bit of weight so I could have enjoyed being pregnant instead of being sick. That being said,…

This is my second time doing this after taking a break when I was pregnant. First of all, you have to not think about it as dieting. I diet is a temporary thing. Diets constantly change and come a dime a dozen. This is a life style change. I had to accept that this is the way it'll be for the rest of my life. Once I reach…

It was going great till I got on MFP and the news feed is gone! Now I feel lost, and disconnected... :wink:

You make them feel guilty about their current physical condition. Therefore, if they can get you to eat the same thing they're eating then they don't have to feel so guilty. It you do not give in, then they blame you for having the "holier then thou" attitude so that they can again blame their feeling of guilt on you. You…

So...can we only do this if we have facebook?

No, not true! During menstruation, a man who had just gotten done with the laundry, dishes, and putting the kids to bed with a vacuum cleaner in his hand would be much more attractive!

my favorite is pink lady

Maybe "clean eating" shocked your system enough that it kicked your metabolism up a notch when you went back to normal eating??? Are you exercising at all, walking more, fidgeting more, lower sodium intake maybe making you loose water weight, over estimating caloric intake or underestimating output? ...Those are my best…

I didn't read the whole thread so maybe someone said this. People who suffer from gout have to stay away from beef unless it's a certain type. That said, I have never heard of beef bacon. I usually eat Oscar Mayer reduced sodium turkey bacon. 2 pieces of bacon, 2 egg whites, and sandwich thin...yummy! *edited for typo

The tater-tot casserole at summer camp when I was a kid. It totally ruined all future tater-tot casseroles. I can eat almost anything even if I don't like it, but I cannot eat tater-tot casserole.

I don't have facebook. Can I still join?

hmmm...they must have them all on the same weekend.

In North Dakota

We have one this weekend! My dad and I are going to do it. =)
