Makes sense, thanks for the thoughts

I'm a Southern gal. But north, south, east, west, a gal gives as good as she gets. If you want your woman to give you certain things, what are you giving her in return? I'm all for being submissive for my man, I love it, but the man has to be worth it. Meaning, treat me like a princess & I'll treat you like a king.

Thank you very much for your suggestions, I think it's great and I feel I tell her she's beautiful, but no female can ever hear it enough!

I feel your pain. I feel helpless with my daughter. I know talking about it makes her feel attacked, but when I don't try to address it, I feel I'm failing her as a parent. For me it's not even about her appearance. It's about her health. I fear for her joints, her heart, her future offspring if she decides she wants to be…

$20 for meats on sale $5 dried beans $10 cheese on sale (coupons too!) $20 frozen/fresh veggies (coupons would for frozen, frozen lasts longer than fresh, frozen are high quality, generally speaking) $5 peanut butter $6 flour & corn meal $9 eggs (I use a lot of eggs) $25 for misc needs

May I ask what sort of fats you focus on eating? I was doing Atkins induction for a while, did great, then I sort of fell off the wagon. I have diabetes and feel MUCH better physically doing low carb. I feel I make poor fat choices, though. I need some ideas.

You have a right to be the healthiest you that you can be. Be healthy period. Your health isn't negotiable. If your goals make you stronger and healthier, your goals are valid. No one has a right to tell you not to do that.

I am a nurse and I have loved it. I went back as a married mom of 3 children under 18, one of them disabled. I got my bachelor degree with the goal of being a FNP eventually. The first 2 yrs since I graduated I had to work 7am-7pm shifts in a hospital, which are NOT family-friendly. I'm now divorced. However, I got a job…

I have been doing Atkins Induction for the last 10 days. I'm down 14lbs. I had decided to do it 2 full weeks and then re-evaluate. One of the myths of Atkins or the Ketogenic Diet is that it is *high* protein, or *high* fat. It's actually ADEQUATE protein and ADEQUATE fat. The arguments (myths) of these diets as being so…

I have Vi shakes. I tried it religiously for 9 days, didn't drop a lb so I quit. But I still use them for meal replacement sometimes. I think different paths work for different people & celebrate anytime one finds something that works for them. But for me, I need food. I did feel hungry & deprived.

Are you eating all natural/organic peanut butter? I'm convinced the corn syrup is the addictive part of peanut butter. Once I switched to the natural stuff I stopped craving it like I used to.

I went gluten free for a summer to see if it would help my psoriasis. It went away. then I fell off the gluten wagon lol it's back. I think being vegan will put you majorly at gf if you do not eat much processed meat substitutions. Read your labels for vegan substitutes. Fruits, veggies, beans, watch the soy thing. Good…

I'm 192 & a tight size 12. I'm 5'7" with a lot of boob weight.

I was jogging on the treadmill one day at the fitness club. I saw a dude staring at me. I have to hold "the girls" 'cause they're so big. I thought he was staring at that. Then I realized my backside was feeling cool. I reached around. My drawstring pants had fallen down below my cheeks, but because I was wearing beige…

I weigh each morning. I can fluctuate as much as 5lbs/day. Realizing it has helped me be more ok with myself. I wonder what type of scales you daily weighers use. I got a physician's scale a few yrs ago, best investment i ever made. I know it's extremely accurate.

I love to diddle my fingernails along my man's hairy chest & arms. Places my mouth comes into contact with, I prefer no hair <wink.> I invested in a Silkn Home Laser Hair removal system. It takes a few months, but if you're chronically shaving, it's SO WORTH it. Areas that were always coarse & stubbly are now smooth with a…

Hey peeps. I'm down 63, I have 36 to go to put me at the highest healthy range of BMI. So I consider myself a 100+ because I wanna lose a tad over. It doesn't come easy, it doesn't happen fast. But it CAN and WILL happen. YOU are the only one who chooses whether or not it DOES happen. I recommend reading Overeaters…

This is America. People are lazy even when it comes to losing weight. Most people will take the path of least resistance even if that include pills or elective gastric bypass surgery. [/quote] Good thing i live in Canada. Dodged a bullet there!!! ;) [/quote] LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What does it matter what he thinks, if she's taking diet pills, or you or not? Her weight loss is her fish to fry, and your's is your's. You aren't doing it for his appraisal, you're doing it for you. Different people need different avenues to help them achieve a slender frame. You shouldn't down her for her choices any…

OH MY!!!!!!

BTW, for those who do pass out. If you chug 15-30 grams of simple carbs, such as fruit juice or soda within 5 minutes of being stuck, it can offset the vagal response. Another thing, fainting isn't just fainting. Some urinate & defecate on themselves because you do lose all bodily functions. Again, Medic doesn't have time…

The first & only time I tried I passed out so hard & long they nearly called 9-1-1 & told me to do all of Medic a favor & never try to give blood again. I am an oncology nurse & give blood regularly to my patients but respect not all of us can. Some of us have incredibly strong vagal responses & it's not worth the…

I like the Vanilla Muscle Milk powder. I've tried the premixed chocolate, bananas & cream, & strawberries & cream & don't care for them that much. I was gonna add a banana & some stevia-sweetened strawberries to it today but was too busy (at work)

Y'all can make fun of HCG all you want, but one of my dear friends went from 250s to 130s. She went from a 22 to a size 6. She's maintained it now for 6 months. I cannot do the diet, it's too restrictive & I need more food due to my glucose issues. But it DOES work for some and I'm glad it's out there for those whom it…

To add to the carb/protein debate is insulin effectiveness. For diabetics different times of the day brings different outcomes. I have what's called "dawn effect" where I CANNOT eat carbs in the morning. If I do, it sends my blood glucose soaring, then crashing to a hypoglycemic state in about 3 hours. For others, eating…

I think you have beautiful legs. If you feel they are still problematic, I think kettlebell squats are great for thighs. Walking a lot has toned mine. Swimming is also good with lots of kicks.

WOW!! YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!

At 195 I'm a 12/14 depending on the cut. I'm very large breasted & usually have to wear a 14-16 dress because of the nummies. My profile pic is me at 193, but my breasts are much larger than they appear LOL. I"m 5'7" When I was at my top weight I was a 24...don't give up. I am aiming for 158, I'm guessing i'll be maybe a…
