Is the anexity from people seeing you? Or does the exercise itself bother you? The youtube walk at home videos are great or you could try the videos on fitness blender. And start small. A lot can be acheived through diet alone (by which I mean watching your calorie consumption to stay at a deficit, not a specific diet.

If the cafeteria hours suck jst visit a grocery store occasionally and stock up on healthy snacks you can keep in your room. They are portion controlled so easy to log and great for late night snacks and such. You could get treat food but really protien bars are pretty good and peanut butter and bread don't need a fridge.…

This. I know that on days when I've been really good and exercised I sometimes wind up with a huge amount of calories left over and it took a bit to adjust to the idea that I can indulge and use some of them up while still trying to lose weight. Now I have a yummy peanut butter sandwich or even ice cream bar or such on gym…

At my largest I started with just watching my calories in and lost quite a bit fairly easily with only doing the occasional extra walk. I have just discovered the leslie sansome walk at home videos and while I'm sure they will get old at the moment I'm just happy to be moving. Fitness blender is a great source of work out…

I didn't make it to 40 before needing mine out but I certainly hit the other ones. But I can top your experience. The ER doctor had the gall to tell me that I am really quite attractive and if I could just loose some weight I would be truely lovely and then recommended a fad diet to drop the weight. I was in a program run…

I understand the clingy toddler and don't have the option of older kid to babysit. My son can really get underfoot but I am trying to get him involved a bit. Do you want to try and do _____ with mommy? And like another poster said he likes being asked but it doesn't hold his attention long so he will watch a show while I…

It allows you to edit? This just changed my life! I thought the importer meant you had to keep it the same. Now it is a useful tool for me :)

WTF! I get that we like to joke around here sometimes and I expect a certain amount of trolling but what is wrong with you that you think being abused is funny? If you were joking with friends that is one thing but honestly in a topic such as this one why men feel the need to blame the woman or joke about women being…

Because you would act like she was doing something wrong if she reacted in a way that doesn't conform with how you want her to. With the number of people that get sexually assaulted being so high there would be a good chance she would be victimized no matter what you do to protect her. And while I can tell you think you're…

The altziemer comment someone made earlier may be important to consider as well. If you know his daughter in-law you could simply enquire if he has been behaving differently lately. Because if thats what triggered his behavior he may get worse and confrontation could make him violent. The family may appreciate you letting…

Thank you! I know there are mostly decent people out here but sometimes seeing someone defend a position like that really throws me. Glad to see there are some men on here willing to provide some support.
-
Wow, aren't you and enlightened individual. 'Us' women don't all behave the same way but as someone who normally can deal with anything and stands up to people when someone is being made uncomfortable I can tell you that I too have frozen, not wanting to make a scene, not knowing what to do, not wanting to make a big deal…
-
Speaking up doesn't mean you've lost something. I totally understand the freeze, and the not saying anything, and the internal screaming while acting like everythings fine and just brushing it off. Speaking up is a gift to yourself. It says I will protect and defend myself. I can be my own warrior. I do not accept that I…
-
This happened at your work? Next time you see him make it clear that he is never to touch you again (it can be a hard talk but you will be so happy you did it) and if he gives any attitude about it or tries to be too 'friendly' again ban him from the establishment. You do not have to put up with that s**t. Seriously. I…

FR sent. Sharing recipes = sold :flowerforyou:

I'm trying the walk at home videos as I have a cordless headphone set so no one hears the talking. Youtube has them but I too am curious for more ideas.
-
I too like to get weighed elsewhere and as a Curves member I can weigh myself whenever but they also weigh and measure to track progress so gym likely could do as well.
-
My friend got a job as a housekeeper at a hotel and she is a crazy cleaner so while still eating like crazy managed to lose almost 40lbs and 4 pant sizes just from the increase in daily activity so I would think that if you watch your food you might be okay. And if later you decide you aren't acheiving the results you want…
-
slightly off topic but I decided to check out the calories and such here and man do they differ per entry, like a lot.
-
Really? Thats so weird I almost feel compeled to try it
-
I'm in total agreement, especially as what I looked at was right around the 1200 cal mark a day and at higher weights you can eat much more and lose weight. It is working for me right now and did the last time before I stopped as well.
-
I too am curious about this. Why would that be a guilty pleasure unless you are referring to enjoying witholding it from someone?
-
If its innocent a throat clear should be enough to make her blush and look away, if she is increasingly forward its awkward if you can't really talk to her but perhaps a 'seriously' or something followed by document. When you mentioned your line of work it did bring to mind a couple of ladies I ken in the past that were…

This, and highscool :smooched:

In answer to the original question - No, I had never heard the term seagan. That said I immediately understood what was implied by it.

This may be the most motivational topic I've seen. I love this. Yay for you all, some of these are astounding in that it seems like more weight would have been lost but all of them show a true transformation and the posting exhibits so much joy. Love it.:heart:
-
I too am a scale avoider right now. I think its a major accomplishment that I track and the scale still feels too controlly/anal for myself personally although in the future it may work. For the time being I think I do as solid a job estimating as I can. My only point to the OP is that while I too like a buffer and don't…

Thank god someone else noticed that as it hurt to even see it

This. I want to try more adventurous stuff like zip lining. I'm too heavy right now for many things but watch out world. I can't wait to do things like zipline, raft, horseback ride with my family.
