Thanks so much :wink: Cloe - we should try to get together. Back to drinking all that water Hope I don't drown :frown: Luv Alice xox Thanks for all the encouragement - I will take your advice danteII13 and get that cocoa butter :glasses:

Gonna give this another try. Going out for a long power walk - home for 2 days and I don't want to eat everything in site. By the way - does anyone know how to get rid of saggy, flabby skin. I know this sounds gros, but you should see my stomach - it kinda hangs. Ever since I had my kids, my stomach has turned to sag. Any…

Hi, Thanks to all of you for the support I really appreciate all of your kind words of motivation. I really love this site and the people who are on it. :happy: alice

Hi, Don't know why, but lately I've lost all motivation. I don't think I'm up in pounds, but I'm finding it hard to stick to it. Does anyone else feel this way from time to time? and can I snap out of it? I really do want to lose the weight, but sometimes I just feel like giving up. Does anyone have any good advise for me?…

Hi Cheryl, I just started about 2-3 weeks ago - weighing in at 168.8 I'm averaging about 1 pound per week Down 3.3 pounds since my last weigh-in My darn scale seems stuck at 160. No matter what my weight change is my scale always says that I'm 160, so I have to weigh myself at work and I never seem to remember to weigh…

Hi bigsteve I love this site. You have come to the right place. Monitoring your calorie intake along with exercise (and don't forget to drink your 8 glasses of water). You will feel better. It seems to be easier to lose if you are a little larger. It's when you only want to lose 10-20 pounds that it gets hard. I know that…

I don't know what your opinions are on Halloween candy, but I can tell you - that is my weakness. I have 2 kids who trick or treat and I find myself dipping into the candy - usually when I get home from work. It seems to help my stress and tide me over till supper. I'm hoping that I can resist this. Does anyone know if its…

Hi Cloe Hang in there - If it helps, I've been going up and down (and all around) too! I will always be there for support - Count me in alice

Hi Everyone, Had a rough weekend (keeping track). I didn't drink all of my recommended amounts of water (all weekend I think I only had 2 glasses) and I didn't overdo it on the cals, but guess what? I'm up about half a pound - Does anybody know if this is because I didn't get my 8 glasses of water in for 2 days? Please…

Hi everyone I'm from the Eastern Ottawa area, Ottawa, Ontario Canada that is. I can tell ya that it's getting pretty cold out here. Lived here all my life and still have trouble getting used to the cold weather we get here. alice

Welcome, you have just taken the first steps to improving your health and feeling better about yourself. Congratulations and hope you stay onboard. Keep the faith. alice

From my own experience, I have had the same problem in the past and it was explained to me that your body goes into a plateau - which means it stops losing weight because it feels starved. This may sound crazy, but after a week if you don't lose (and you have followed this program faithfully) I would be very surprised. I…

Hi Cloe, Me again - thanks for joining. It's something we can do together. ps. like my pic? alice

Thank you Mike. I am new and I really like and appreciate this website and all its functions. Just by reading everyone's comments - you really have helped to make a difference for many people. alice

I think that it will have to be a lifelong habit (unfortunately), but I think once your body stabilizes it won't be so hard to manage. Keeping it off is the hardest part. Just have to hang in there. I was taught that if you are going to a big event - eat less the day before so that you can balance the caleries better and…

Hi Best of luck to you. Luv your doggie - she's really cute. Enjoy the site and don't forget who shared it with you Luv Alice xox

sorry this is the right source for the video info on MSG http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIbk5O_Hkf8 More to this 3 part series can be viewed here at youtube. Sorry for the previous post alice

here is the website I was referring to in my original message. http://www.msgmyth.com

If there is anything I've figured out over the years is how to read the nutrition labels and just exactly what they mean. It doesn't stop there - the Ingredients is VERY important too. MSG has been tested extensively in the USA and there was a news broadcast on it. I will post it some other time for all of you to watch. It…

Hi, Just checking in - read some of your comments and I gotta tell you this site is great. I've done it all, LA weight loss clinic, those stupid diet bars and recently got a price with Herbal Magic. These places are designed for the rich who have nothing better to do than give their money away. Glad I found this site and I…
