  • I wish you the best of luck with your weight loss goals. What you see as FAT is the weight/size I am trying to obtain:laugh: I've always lived in the south (North Carolina) and men here do appreciate a woman with curves; but I can say my husband is not very happy with my current weight and is happy I have started this…
  • Welcome aboard this life changing journey. Best wishes to you! Feel free to add me as a friend :smile:
  • Thanks for the info. I love trying new things and thank God for having a husband who goes along with whatever I cook!!
  • I agree. If we are going to win the war against obesity once and for all we have to dig down deep in ourselves and change our way of eating. Yes, there will be special occasions where you will eat the piece of birthday cake or have that glass of champagne at the wedding reception ,but I'm not working my ..... off all week…
  • I also just force myself to drink it. I don't try to make a beverage out of it or I'll find myself sipping on it and won't get the minimum 8 glasses in. I have a set of glasses and they hold 16 oz. When I wake up first thing in the morning i immediately down 1 that's 2 of my glasses down 6 more to go. I just "gulp" (for…

  • I think the green tea helped. I read about green tea helping metabolize fat in an Essence magazine article in 1998. I incorporated it in my diet and drank a cup everyday for a week. At the next weigh in at my church's weight loss program I had a big drop. I finally left the 200's and weighed in at 198. That was an exciting…
  • I suffer with bouts of depression and have used food as my "anti depressant" over the years. I don't have to tell you what the end result of that was. So if you need help to deal with your depression and stress please let your health care provider know. You have come to the right place for love and support. You…
  • You are well on your way to achieving your goal. You've lost 25 pounds and your mum sees that and knows it. You didn't gain weight in a day and you will not lose it in a day. Continue with the healthy approach you are utiliziing and you'll get at your goal weight. Best wishes!!
  • What I love best about this site is the accountability. I log my food, my exercise. I have done well since I joined 6/12/2010. It is not information I didn't already know. I have always been told to log food so you could see what you were eating but for some reason I never did it consistently. For some reason now it…

  • I started 6/12/2010 and notice I am tired and run down especially on the days I work. I know my body is adjusting to the lower caloric intact and exercise. I am sure it is wondering where is all the food at?:blushing:
  • I like using them. They help me with portion control. Some taste better than others. The one I just ate for lunch will not be repurchased. It was Healthy Choice Chicken Pad Thai. Weight Watchers Spaghetti and Lean Cuisine Lasagna are two of my favorites. They are very convenient at work for lunch. I usually prepare…
  • I just started my weight loss journey on Saturday and joined MFP today so I am not ready to give away any clothes yet! :) BUT I had already told myself that as soon as I leave each size I am going to have those clothes dry cleaned and donate them to my local crisis center. So in a few months my size 22/24 clothing will be…
  • I've just started my journey again too. I'm glad I found this site. I love it and the support everyone gives you. Hang in there! We can do it!:smile:
