I repeated the first week twice for a total of 3 times. I am on day 3 week 2 now and I am not sure if I will move on or repeat. When I first started I couldn't pull out the full 60 seconds of running so I just did my best and I had to learn to pace myself until I could get through the 60 seconds without stopping early. I…

^^^^ This! I also have had a couple people's eyes stray to my stomach!! I hated it! I was starting to get the fat hang down stomach that hangs over the legs...oh my!! Thank goodness it is gone...I still have a pooch but it's not hanging down anymore! I was mortified at that!

Ah yes...I forgot the comments from my kids...."I don't wanna be big like you , mom".".why are all the other moms skinny?" I was just plain tired of being the biggest in the room all the time!

I have been heavy all my life...so I have had the "I didn't fit in the ride...got stuck in the outfit...called names in school" but the most memorable and degrating moment was in Middle school and semi-skinny chick, whom was more of an aquaintance, used to sing the "1-800-95-Jenny" song to me as I walked by...at the end of…

I don't particularly share this view but my husband works at the hospital as a security gaurd and this is his complaint about respiratory therapists...they all go in and tell their patients with breathing issues NOT to smoke and they see what smoking does to their bodies and then they go every chance they get to take a…

THIS ^^^ Your body will stop producing milk if you don't eat more. This happened ot me with my first baby..at 4 months he was put into the hospital with failure to thrive and I had NO milk supply left! :( This is the *minimum a woman should ever eat and is what they start anorexics on in recovery...since you just had a…

I also did weight watchers and lost lots of weight on it. I was only eating 1200 cals a day and I stalled out not losing any weight on that amount. I got to wondering how many calories WW points equaled up to...it was A LOT more than 1200!! I have since upped my cals and have started losing again. one point equals around…

That's another GREAT selling point!! Fitbit's customer service is the bomb!!! There have been many many people who have *lost, *swam with theirs on, and even dropped it in the road it got ran over....fitbit replaced them for FREE!!! They also replace the ones that have defects and flaws and wuit working but they even…

My FT4's batteries can also be changed at home. It has little cirlce "doors" that can turned with a coin etc and they open to reveal the battery compartment. I have heard that if you send them off to be changed they change the rubber seal to insure they remain water proof but for me I don't use it while swimming so it's…

Thanks! This makes sense. I will go change my deficit on fitbit to a more realistic one. :) I will keep at it, thanks for all the input.

Ok...so here are the numbers. 1866 3220 2737..... OMG!! That's A LOT of calories to eat lol :P So you are saying I should just eat those everyday and not worry about logging my exercise at all. There are days that I don't feel well or down and I don't work out to the same intensity as I normally do. I try to change it…
-
OK, so I ran my numbers through scooby too. I told it how much I exercise (5-6 hrs of strenuous) and I chose the 20% cut. Here's what I got: BMR 1866 TDEE 3220 Daily cals 2576 So I should eat the daily cals on days I do all that exercise...but should I run the numbers to see what I should eat on days I don't exercise and…

I was so tired of being the fatest one in the room...always being self conscious and I hated the rolls on the back, the muffin top no matter what I wore. I had a friend that told me she liked sitting next to someone overweight at the pool so she looks pretty good compared :/ I was like oh heck no! I am not gonna be your…
-
I also have been so worried about who is watching and laughing at my slow jog lol. I would only run on the one street around my house where there are no houses etc and walk the rest :P I finally did laps with a friend at the gym last night and it gave me courage. I ran one, walked one...so on and so on until my time was…

I upped my calorie intake because I was only eating 1,200 cals a day and netting negative some days....I had stalled out on wieght loss so I went to 1,700 cals and it was SO hard! It still is! I second the suggestions to keep nuts handy. I try to eat a serving of nuts and an apple on the way to the gym then I always pack a…

ummmm.... "The bride-to-be says she takes pride in having been fitted for the largest wedding dress in history and thinks more women should embrace their curves. “The bigger I get, the better I feel,” she said. “I feel confident and sexy.The more weight I gain, the more guys want to be with me, the more sex I have.” How…

Well, byt the kgs lost ticker I assume you are not in the US, but I found ones that have built in underwire bras keep the girls in (I'm a 40 DDD) These suits are sold by bra size not just body size. I found some at Dillards, and Lane Bryant. Coco Reef is the brand I just bought...and oh how I loooove the support, I look…

It said her waist was 107.5 inches around! I believe it...I saw the video of her walking and her trying on her wedding gown...yeah.. It took two people 30 minutes to lace up the back! I mean I was 311 and my waist was somewhere in the 50's. It would technically be 8.95 feet....but that's REALLY close to 9 lol
-
LOL...I guess that's one way to look at it.
-
They showed her eating on the show, what she had as a "snack"...it was like a huge stack of pancakes, some belgian waffles etc etc, etc....basically like 6 or 7 huge meals and a dr pepper she consumed all at one time!
-
If one is happy being heavy then that's their biz...I agree, who am I to say they *should lose weight. BUT, at 1,200 lbs you cant even move....or walk...or anything, I mean she will just be bed bound...why would you want to be that way?
-
AND.....she is marrying a chef! She said that will help her reach her goal o.O :noway:
