the longest 5 weeks of my life !!!! Waiting and waiting.......

I have her DVD with the 1 - 5 mile walks (one for each day of the week) I do the 1 mile everday - plus my Curves 3 days a week and walk, walk, walk the rest of the time. I use my FitBit for calories burned. I have done the 3 mile (Weds) and love it. It is a workout!! One day - the 5 mile (it takes about an hour and half to…

I find myself reading labels. I used to never read labels - pick up anything and everything. Now I don't pick up anything - especially a new food - without reading the label and even better, putting it back if it is not healthy and good for me And water - I HATE WATER - but now I drink at least 128ozs a day. Thanks Amber…

You don't eat the pod - well at least I dont...just the inside bean. Very good snack. I buy the pre-packaged ones - steam in the micro, sprinkle with a little salt and SUCK the beans right outta there....nom,nom...

My police radio....

I am a peanut butter eating freak! I LOVE LOVE LOVE PB2....both the regular and the chocolate! The chocolate is really good on lowfat graham crackers for a sweet tooth. I buy mine at a local health food market place called - Smoothie King. I don't know if other health food stores sell them. I can't really tell the…

I LOVE LOVE LOVE mine. It is such a motivator to get steps in and burn calories and it syncs with MFP. It is like my phone, always with me!! Never leave home without it....

Well said sir ! When people ask "What kind of diet are you on?" - I tell them I am not on a diet, I eat healthy and exercise. It has been a lifestyle change....and if I want to eat chocolate, or drink wine, or a piece of cake - I do it...but then I make sure I exercise to burn those calories off. Common sense…

My grand angels call me "Boo"...from the movie Monster's Inc. I actually had a contest at work - and let everyone put a name in the hat....and drew one. "Boo" came out and I love it. Of course, I had to lay down some rules - my co-workers are police officers - and some thought they were very clever ;-) I had a Mimi,…

Your are so the man !! I :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: you !!

I'll be your huckleberry !!

I have to have "noise"....but not TV or radio. I bought a sleeping machine from JC Penny...Actually bought 3 at the same time - thru the catalog. It is great..just what I need to sleep. When I travel, I use the white noise app on my smart phone...not as good - but it works.

Been patience, and wait till he is ready. I have two boys. Once I took the diaper off, I used underwear - no pull ups. Don't go back to diapers and you won't have too if he is ready. Let him "stand" like the big boys. My husband would take the boys with him everytime he went to the restroom. Both were very easy to train -…

I weigh every morning - with the same thing on - first thing. I only record once a week tho. Weighing daily keeps me in check.

WEST O PLEX - love me some Texas !!

Flbaseballmom - you look beautiful - love your smile (little mischievous)

On here everyday - check way more than facebook ! But I am at work - shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..don't tell...and I won't tell on you!! :devil:

Nobody here is going to let you fall backwards. We are here to catch you. We all have bad days. I am looking at possible back surgey - so I feel your pain. As one said, the weight didn't appear over night and it won't disappear over night. 9 lbs. is a lot of weight. Don't be discouraged - deep breath - take it easy today…

Your story is amazing and heartfelt. You have been through so much, but yet your light shines bright. Congratulations on your weight loss, you look amazing. Continue on your journey. You are an inspiration to so many who struggle. Thank you for sharing!

Curves circuit training before work, a quick walk around Target at lunch (I love it when the manager follows me, hehehe) and a walk around the neighborhood when I get home tonight!!

I did the same thing, no weight loss for almost 3 weeks. Increased my calorie intake by 200 and up'd my protein. I drank more water and this past week I lost 1 pound. It doesn't seem fair that after 3 weeks of hard work, 1 pound - but I think you have to break the same ole same cycle. Give it a little boost and don't give…

If that is their attitude, you are better off without them. I love my curves and I get compliments all the time. Be proud that you are trying to change for yourself and not another person. There are plenty of fish out there that love curvy women......stay true to yourself!!

You need more calories and more protein. I have had the same problem with see sawing between 2-5 lbs. I up'd my calories, eating more protein and already see a change. Try that and see if it helps. Feel free to add me as friend and we can do this together ! :flowerforyou:
