Hi Bill - This is a great place to stay motivated. I am back after a small break...gained weight but believe with this site and everyone's help I will be losing again before I know it. Log in daily...I believe this is key. Good luck to you and have faith in yourself. go outside and play!

My wrist measures 8". You cannot imply that you and I have the same bone structure.

I am 5'7" and my goal weight is 159 and that is a good weight approved by my doctor. As I get older, my expectations are more realistic. I never was and never hope to be 125. I lost 70 pounds on Weight Watchers and have gained more than half back. Feeling a need for a change, I thought I would try counting calories instead…

Bump

Beautiful African Grey - I have one too!

I'm new here...what does it mean when people type "Bump"?

Wow! What a great resource! I love using my crock pot...thanks for all your good recipes!

I could give up anything but my wine!:laugh:

Ohhhhh...don't tell me that! Mine was just delivered!

Way to go!!!!

I know what BMR is but what is TDEE?

I, too, am going to try eating more...as long as they are healthy calories, I will give it a shot. Apparently what I have been doing in the past hasn't always worked. I've read studies on this way of eating and it appears that there is some truth to it. What have I got to lose except pounds?

You look absolutely fantastic! I need the motivation and you just may be it!

I have owned a NordicTrack treadmill for about 5 years now. When I use it, I love it. I just dusted it off and will start to use it daily, starting today. That's my pledge!

Would never have known that was the same person! Way to go!!!!:noway:

I also do this. I don't believe there is one set rule for everyone. If it works for you then continue doing what you do. The goal is to be healthy so make sure you aren't giving up too much of the good stuff for a couple of drinks.:ohwell:

How did you do that before and after pic?

It is totally do-able. Good luck - I'll try to make that my goal too:smile:

Yeah....no to the uncooked eggs

We can help each other

Now I'm not an expert nor a nutritionist, but I lost 70 pounds on Weight Watchers by doing just that. I am not willing to give up the one thing that I really enjoy, nor should you. I am switching over to calories versus the points - I talked with a nutritionist and apparantly I have been going over-board on the "free"…
