Oh and I DO want to say I TOTALLY understand those not wanting in. No hard feelers at all. Like I said before 15 lbs is quite a bit. It's not meant to make us feel bad if we don't make it. Just to push us to really sticking to our diets and do the best we can for the next month. 10lbs a month for me is an excellent month.…

I found out that beer has no sugar! Neither do most spirits.. it's the mixers. However, we already know said friend bought a mixer. But, she also bought straight Tequila. So, 1 shot of Tequila and me bringing a couple of my low carb beers will technically not be cheating......because it is now alcohol a completely…

Loving the stories this morning! The warthog, adorable! How did you KNOW I ate half a pound cake last night? I was doing so good, sleeping soundly away when my Odin dog barked at 1:32 A.M. to go out and I went straight to the freezer, and yes, ate frozen pound cake. Ugh. I need a colonoscopy ! Or a colonic I can only…

Haha. I have actually adjusted side mirrors before so I don't see myself. So glad more people are in! Even if we don't hit it, it's something to aim for and to really challenge ourselves to do as a group. I'm really excited.

Yes...July 16th...but that mini challenge...does that include sugar in fruit and Margaritas...cause my Margarita nite has been moved to Saturday. Ack! You are one brutal woman! I do love the idea of the big challenge. That one rocks! Woo woos. I want some Karen bling bling.

7 years, 1 month, 7 days. It DOES get better. You have to pick your battles hun and give yourself the permission to just not be ok sometimes and feel what you are feeling without reaching for something to numb it. That's the hard part.

Great job honey!! Me too! I noticed this is a few months old now. Wonder how she is doing now?

At home I was happy when I got in the 2's but at work, I couldn't get there because of clothes and what not. It was making me so mad, I stopped even trying for a good week or so. Today, I just said.. go for it... and BOO-YAH! Even with clothes! (No shoes though, or badge..) I removed everything I could without security…

This thread is making me so hungry. Everything sounds about right. When I lived alone, I couldn't keep food in the house. Literally. I would go to the grocery store and then nothing would be left in a week or so. Nothing. If it was in my house, I would eat it. Sandwiches, chips, popcorn, grilled cheese. Ice cream. After I…

Morning! I am going to say visiting my favorite spot in the world, Priest Lake, ID and swimming in the lake and hiking in the forest. I can do that now, but I want to take my baby girl out on the old rolling log at the end of the dock and try to climb on it like we did when we were kids and balance on top only to always…

It happened... for over 2 months, I have been stepping on this thing with it erroring out on me.. The dreaded freight scale at work with max wgt 300. I got on today... NO ERROR. I did a happy dance. Small successes.

I would be heart broken if I only burned 81 calories after walking for an hour. No way that is right.

I haven't ever heard of it. I will check it out. Maybe that is why I always have a headache?

That gives me an idea......I wonder if he would be interested in doing that show. I mean...I kind of assumed people on there get their surgeries paid for or at least their follow up care? I never checked into it and I don't want to hurt his feelings.. Maybe I should stay out of it. I don't know. But we aren't far from…

First off, Hello Karen!! 2nd...WHAT THE WHAT!!? I missed Diana's post last night. They want you to lose 113lbs before WLS and they wanted you to lose 94? That is just crazy. I am so glad they aren't making you wait for more. That is just dumb. Is it the insurance companies or the doctors? I see my 600lb life all the time…

I finally figured it out. I google imaged searched to find out the exact chicken I always buy since it is pretty much just the generic chicken breast at Walmart. (Which is Pilgrim's Boneless Skinless Fresh Chicken Breast with Rib Meat) at my local Wal-Mart I found out that it Contains 2% Or Less of Sea Salt, Carrageenan…

I flipped about the light laughing cheese wedges on my news feed the other day. I bought the local store brand here which are only 25 calories a wedge but have 250mg of sodium per! I got the sodium count from the mfp database but there is so many options to choose from it is driving me batty.

Congrats on the new client Patrick, hope it works out. Jumping rope is great exercise and just be glad you aren't a girl. I'm afraid all that jumping could cause problems here. Sodium is a beast, Madeline. I mentioned Chicken in the other thread and even made some notes about it in my diary today. I haven't eaten it yet,…

I know where I am, humidity and BUGS get worse at night. So, you get a little relief from the heat, but if you have any breathing problems (like me) doing anything outdoors is just not fun during the summer. (Except swimming). I find even getting in my hot car to drive to the gym a bad thought. Once I get there, I don't…

I bought the biggest loser one at Wal-Mart it's great. I have spent a good hour trying to wrap my head around the caloric intake of raw chickeb vs cooked. I have been counting it wrong for sooo long. No, 4oz of cooked chicken breast is NOT 110 calories. More like 200. Raw chicken is 110 calories. Bubble official bursted.

Summer school? Are you kidding me? What a joke. Yeah definitely show up to court to get that reduced. Happy Happy Birthday Norah! Enjoy your dinner. It only happens once a year! Great job on the gym. I'm still way too chicken **** to ask for help.

Agree, totally tends to be on the individual. I have seen some people on here look so much younger after weight loss. But, I have seen some people in real life look so much older and think, wow...you looked better plump! (Terrible of me to say!)

Oh no Dee! No one better mess with Mama Bear! I hope you get him help today! I don't really have any topic ideas. Something kind of gross and TMI issues that I have. TMI TMI TMI **** I am drinking a good amount of water. I try to get in just about 100oz a day and I am eating vegetables. Not wheat though and no breads. I…

Thank you. I will try it. I have tried everything. Even stuff saying it will block 99.9% humidity. ALL LIES!!! I never had this problem up North. Sure, I had wavy hair if I didn't blow it dry, but now, it doesn't matter what I do, I can spend 2 hours straightening it, as soon as I walk outside... this is what eventually…

I don't have much more advice to give to you then what everyone else have already said. It sounds like you eat good stuff and not junk already.. If you are really active and very muscular, you probably do need more calories just to exist. What I DO have to say is I want your bathing suit! It is adorable!! So cute!

So sad. :-( I haven't read all the comments. But that is just so sad. Since you have been with him for 4 years already, you probably are likely to stick with him, lose weight and continue to work always try to work on yourself to make him happy. Always falling short, and making yourself miserable doing so. I HOPE and PRAY…

Thank you for bringing this back to the top. Only 10 days in and I am already slipping back in. Like that 1 Twix bar and that handful of M&M's I had last night I didn't put in. Dang dude for bringing home candy and putting it on top of the fridge. Like I am NOT going to see it. AND leaving an open pack ready for the taking.

Well, I finished a week. It was a start of something. June 1 90 mins cleaning June 3 - 90 mins cleaning June 5 - 60 swimming June 7 - 120 swimming ******************************** June 8 - 80 swimming

My hair is spent up all the time. My new nickname is ponytail girl. Hello, I'm 36 year old. Its really frizzy. Its bad.

I too want to declare war on heat and humidity! I mean really. WTF am I supposed to do with this hair!? What is the point of having a straightener if Ingo outside and this happens? 5 more months, only 5 more months. Oh God help me 5 more months of summer.
