  • I put on 3-5. :noway: Bloating, I assume. I've heard exercise provides you with energy, that's never been true for me, however, I just found out my thyroid is way off, and my hormones are imbalanced. Extremely low B12 and Vitamin D as well. It's not easy to find energy when you have none to begin with. Last week I started…

  • LOVE this board!! So positive! We all NEED that! Wonderful! More posts, please! I'm going to say my ankles & feet. No matter what I weight, my ankles & feet are shapely and feminine. I don't know how to post pics *yet*

  • Well, I'm 6' tall. I was 5'10" when I was 13, so I grew up used to (almost) everyone being shorter. I've definately dated shorter men, and it wasn't really an issue. I do recall one prom, where my boyfriend stood on the steps, and I stood off them for photos, but we were laughing and joking about it. I'm on the other end…
    in Ladies, would you date someone shorter than you? Comment by loriwarner June 2012
  • I'm 6' even, 260lbs, and wear a women's size 18 or 20, depending on cut. Super hard to find CUTE styles in long lengths in those sizes. Thank goodness it's summer and I'm rocking the capri's and swingy skirts! :glasses:
    in What size jeans do you wear! Comment by loriwarner June 2012
  • I saw your post and hopped in just to read the answers! LOL I'm feeling the same way, right down to the night time munchies. I do GREAT all day and then seem to blow it at night. Start over in the morning, to have the same thing happen the next night. I like that another person told you to not be too hard on yourself.…

  • Congrats on making it to MFP! :) I love it here; if you put in the time to post, and keep coming back, there is amazing support and motivation! These people are all here for the same reason! It's wonderful and uplifting. (Sometimes these things are not easy to talk about with people who aren't facing the same issues.) I'm…

  • Holy crap! Tearing up, here! Great job, amazing! I feel your happiness, and it's so inspiring! JUST what I needed after a girls' weekend that consisted of a few too many margaritas! THANK YOU for sharing this!!

  • The part about being brutally honest in tracking...A few years ago, when I started WW, I was tracking, and it wasn't coming off. I actually had to measure out my portions with cups and spoons. I was shocked by how off I was! It was hard to face, but I re-learned what actual portions were. You won't have to do it forever,…
    in Can't Seem To Lose Weight Comment by loriwarner May 2012
  • When I was 145 in high school, I was constantly defending my eating habits because I was "too thin." I never felt confident at that weight. I didn't FEEL too skinny, but I lacked confidence. I think I was most happy with 170. I can't even imagine ever being 170 again. Gah! One day at a time!

    in Hottest Geek/Nerd on MFP Comment by loriwarner May 2012
  • I also like the tall velour pants/hoodie from Vicky's! Unfortunately, they no longer fit me. I love Lane Bryant's tall dress pants, Houston style. Jeans are ALWAYS an issue. I can't pay $75 for a pair of Silvers, because I'm always "sure" I'll lose weight, and it'll be a waste of money. (*gulp*) I love summer, when flowy…

  • LOVE this! I went there immediately, and "tried on" different weights!

  • 6 feet tall! I have 65lbs to lose, I'm thankful for my height to help disperse all the extra baggage! :tongue:

  • I feel your pain! I have a few suggestions for you, perhaps something will click for you. When I worked out with a trainer, she told me people these days are killing themselves at the gym. She recommended 30 minute workouts. (10 minute warm-up, first, and always stretch afterwards.) She insisted it would help prevent…

  • I'm going to have to take my own advice-start tracking! I was shocked to join today (unexpectedly) and then log my food. :blushing: YIKES!! I've almost had my entire calorie amount and it's barely past lunch! Track, track, track! Be realistic. Meat the size of your palm. Fill your plate with veggies/salad and low-cal…

  • Hello, I too, am starting over! I lost 40 lbs two years ago! I can't believe I've gained it back and feel so out of control! I'm sick about it.:explode: I think I weigh more than I ever have. I'm too scared to actually step on a scale, but judging by some of my "fat clothes," that are now tight, it's gotta be bad. Going…
