  • *Face Plant* How on earth did you get arms that awesome after losing 200lbs? You look fantastic! Such hard work and what an amazing payoff.
  • We go out of town...I start of good and then the lack of healthy options always breaks me. (In laws house especially) Also, I am horrible about food waste. I do GREAT at restaurants with my nice little skinny order of chicken breast and side salad and see my husband leave a few fries of something on his plate, you bet your…
  • Do NOT freak out. I bet you look so much better with those extra 5lbs. It may not feel good right now, but your body is saying hey, I need me some energy storage please.. That is all it is. It is energy that your hair, nails, organs and skin NEED to keep you alive and beautiful. :flowerforyou: Think of it that way.
  • It sounds like you are already at a healthy weight, maybe your body is just hungry and you trying to restrict your calories is revolting on you making you go overboard? I just don't know how it is not hurting your tummy with all that extra fiber with those bars. I binged on fiber/potein bars too once or twice . I was in…
  • Have you had your gall bladder checked? Mine went wonky on me when I started losing weight. Either way, sounds like another doctor visit is in order. Don't give up on healthy eating.
  • Yay! So glad it was a success! I know how it goes. Night time is my worst time and it is when I am stressed about my child not going to bed. I will just go to the fridge and eat. I also know about empty house syndrome. It is so rare, but when I am home on a sick or just sick of work day, I tend to go nuts. Not so much when…
  • Not every guy AT ALL thinks this. Mine has not a jealous bone in his bod, or thinks no one out there would dare hit on me. :laugh: He is all for me getting hot... for HIM.

  • Dang, I peeked at your diary and thought it looked great, but the criticism got me all worried about my measurements now too! I had two food scales but battery went bad on one and 3 year old went ninja on the other. Anyhow, I think you are doing pretty good on your logging, but whenever we hit a plateau, that seems to be…
  • :cry: This is so sad to hear. I wish we could all just be happy with we what we are, think about how much more joy we would get out of life. I say "we" because I feel like I am either constantly stuffing my face out of control and miserable or like you, obsessing and watching every little bite. It is like no matter what,…
  • GORGEOUS!! You look so happy and healthy! :flowerforyou:
  • Haha. Counting down the months. I am glad I am not the only one to do this. I ALWAYS do this and tend to say...by Christmas I should be... and I NEVER AM! I would guess it would depend some on if this is your first go around too on your weight loss journey. For me, this is about my 4th time gaining and losing the same 100+…
  • I know that feeling! It is such a huge deal.. Saying you are 200lbs just feels so much better than 300. Way to go girl!!! ♥
  • French to the Fries!! I even steal my daughter's out of her happy meal.. I am shameful. :embarassed:
  • You did THAT in a YEAR, WITHOUT WLS?!...You are my HERO!! Wow. Way to go sweetheart!! :flowerforyou:
  • I have noticed if people ate clean before the challenge, they didn't tend to get the results they were looking for weight loss wise, but did lose inches.The biggest success stories I have seen with it have definitely been with the people who needed it the most. The 10 day cleanse is pretty awesome. I have done it 4 times…
  • Feel free to add me, we have about the same amount left to lose. Give or take how fabulous I decide I want to get. :flowerforyou:
  • Omg, I miss Spark. I need to order some. Say what you want about Advocare, Spark is the best energy drink ever. I am currently taking B Supplements that come from a different company in pill form and they don't do chit. One Spark and I am feeling good. Ugh, sorry, I digress. Miss Spark. Need to order.
  • I would cut it down to to 2000/1800. I'm a big girl too and I think if you feel full enough on 2000, try that. Still full, try 1800. Then know, if some days you do go a little over, oh well, you are still within what MFP says you should be. Otherwise, you can do what everyone else says, use full fat Ranch, eat nuts, bacon,…
  • Food intake for sure!! Log everything!
  • I had mine out 20 yrs ago when I was just 15.. I too had lost too much weight too quickly, had stones, was pretty sick. I didn't notice any weight gain once it came out. I did have an upset stomach for years, but I thought it was because I ate lettuce or something. I was just young and never knew it might be because I…
  • I will NEVER knock anyone for trying a "Fad" diet. You do you baby! As long as your are doing something, anything to get you started. I often jump into something just because I need to follow a plan just to get me going again. Hey, you are excited to be getting healthy. Who cares how you are doing it, it beats getting…
  • 5lb chocolate bunny? They DO exist...
  • Keep snacking all day long, but reach for good things. Try to keep it within 200 calories each time 6-7 times a day and you will be right around your 1200-1400 calories. I make omelets ALL the time because they ARE low cal. I use Egg beaters, 2% cheese, low fat meats and veggies. So good and very filling. I am talking…
  • I was almost suicidal or homicidal 2 days ago. Thank GOD I got my period and found the cause of those horrible dark feelings. I cannot believe all you women who can say push through it. I can stare a nurse down as she draws blood, look at the needle as it goes into my arm, giggle as I get a tattoo, but cramps, I am a…
  • Isn't that the question? I was so hungry when I was skinny I was miserable. I am so sick when I am fat I am miserable. Can I ever not be miserable? There has to be something in between that isn't miserable. I just want to find my happy.
  • I just requested a bunch. I am in the same boat. Love to be nosy. Oh and I am not really and alcohol, I swear.
  • Yes. I do this all the time. Every day. Even when I eat breakfast. I should be patting myself on the back for actually eating breakfast because I KNOW it is a good for me to eat breakfast, but when I let myself, I say, welp, there goes, 150, or 250 or 300 calories.. for the day. I get it. I try to save as much as I can…
  • You could lose a lot of weight real quick....drop the @sshole! No, seriously, that is verbal abuse. God Bless you, I hope he isn't that way all the time.
  • I had to google teetotalers. LOL. I think we know all the extra sugar/carbs are not good for you, but honestly, if having a drink every so often helps so you don't feel deprived, I say go for it! It's not going to HELP you lose weight, but it probably won't hurt too bad in moderation.

  • I think so. This is about a 100lbs change.
