You look great! Keep up the good job. weight training will help the arms

You seem to be the judge and jury - stop judging others and keep attention on your goals, etc. Every time you point a finger at someone there are 3 pointing back at you. If you judge others there will be a heavier judgement on you one day.

I'm 5'8" so I'm OK with that but I would definitely change my DDDs to a C - so hared to find clothes that fit properly.

we knew each other 6 months about a year after marriage things changed. He was a workaholic, very low sex drive and by the time we hit 9 years he was cheating . 7.5 months is NOT LONG ENOUGH!!!! Don't let him push you into something you will regret later if you don't give it time. You need time to get to know each…

Congratulations! Way to go! You inspire me.

my big gut, fat *kitten* and thick thighs

confused by the person above me so I'l go with the one above that... I'm watching Don't rust the B what 's your favorite vacation memory?

In my opinion, they are the ones who are disrespectful to you. What makes their lifestyles the end all and be all of everyones existence? I had someone tell me that there must be something wrong with my marriage because we didn't have any kids. They are all jerks. Maybe people can't have children, maybe hey don't want…

makes ya wonder why we ever married the jerks.

that was my choice for my ex - you beat me to it - DUMB & DUMBER :laugh:

I eat either Pepperidge Farms Whole Wheat Deli Flats for sandwiches and also Whole Wheat or multi grain breads and then only make a sandwich with only 1 slice. Try to replace the bread with veggies and fruits,

this week I did not loose any weight (didn't gain either) I will keep on keeping on. there will always be days like this.

thanks everyone for all the input. I've been having the same issues. Tried a lot and if they didn't taste good they were super expensive. OR, I get bored with the same flavors - - it's time to do some more testing. Thanks for the inspiration.

I totally disagree - we do have upper and lower abs and there are exercises to help and build and strengthen them. I think someone has blown hot air up your skirts http://www.livestrong.com/article/361046-lower-upper-ab-exercises/

protein powder can be added to milk, juice etc. to increase your protein intact. I use it as a meal replacement for breakfast if I am running late. Depending on the brand you buy it tastes great, like a chocolate shake. Don't be afraid to try it. Of course some are horrible so you need to try and find what you like.

You look good but you don't look like you need to lose any weight - you'd be underweight then. Stay healthy

WOW! You look great and so inspiring - I need to lose 100+ lbs. My first is to get below 250 then lose 100. Incremental goals seem to be helping me too. Thanks for inspiring me even more:happy:

have you seen your doctor? Get checked out. It may be something simple like an under active thyroid or something that hindering you fro losing weight. That's what I found out. I just have to take a small pill everyday and I feel better and am losing weight. Make an appointment and talk to your doc.

He sounds like an A-1 jerk. How can improving your eating habits be bad?? Her health would only be better. I've only lost 17 lbs so far and I;m sleeping better and have more energy. Just thin what I'll feel like after 50 lbs?! He's a control freak and she needs to get away from that before she loses herself. I was married…

what do you mean by bump - is that a good thing??? I see a lot of people referring to bump

any good cookbook has chapters on veggies. Also, you can get a vegan cookbook if you don't want to eat meat. I like salad but don't eat it everyday but I love veggies and eat at least two with every meal wit chicken or fish. Experiment and find what you like. What is you favorite veggie? Find out multiple ways to prepare…

I use stevia - it's natural and tastes good

Had a great day and kept below my counts across the board...doing good ;-D

I don't drink or eat anything with aspartame - it's not good for you. So I have no idea how much to add. I drink plain pure water and Zevia which is sweetened with stevia which is a natural sweetener. Do some research on aspartame and you'll see

You need to learn hot NOT to be so hard on yourself. You finished - that's great !!!! C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!!!!!

chicken soup with whole wheat pasta - 200 cal

NO!!!! it gets you feeling defeated if you don't see any loss. I weight myself once a week - every Saturday morning. That's it. And I always get a surprise by losing more than I thought I would. Give yourself a break, ease up and don't be so tough on yourself
