I totally get you. My son is 10 and out of no where went from a bean pole to a chubster. He hates sports, fruits and veg, and any type of cleaner eating. Doesnt like going outside and being active, only stays on his laptop or playing video games. On my days off, I get him outside and let him ride his bike but he tires…

I appreciate your response!! yay, someone responded. Lol. In my av, it's my sis and I, I'm the one with the longer, lighter hair. I am going to try not to walk in with my defenses up and not believe that all men only want *kitten* and no commitment. New year, new "tude, right?

the clapping you're hearing while exercising is not your imaginary cheering squad, it's your fat!

That is a great to look at it!!!! love it!!

thanks, I needed this. this week has been especially hard for me. I have stayed within or maybe less than my daily calories but I've been eating chocolate everyday and not exercising daily as I promised myself. Honestly, I just feel like I want to quit. btwn TOM and my work schedule, this has not been a good week.

May sound crazy but for whatever reason "Dontcha" by the *****Cat Dolls. I know, I know, very corny but when I'm working out and that particular song comes on I imagine me singing this to my ex who left me 2-3 years ago for some other chick. So yeah...now that I've lost most of the weight...."Dontcha wish your girlfriend…

me too!!! come to find out, my sinuses were the culprit. the headaches began after completing my runs. Get yourself checked out.

I found that for me, if I looked at my run prior to starting then I was already thinking "I cant do it" Slow down and just think : I CAN DO IT!!!! These 20 mins run are not a piece of cake for me but man when I'm done, I feel like I won! lol I repeated week 4 TWICE because I thought that I couldnt move on until I squashed…

I HATE TOM WITH A PASSION!!!! Without fail, 5-6 pounds weight gain every freaking month! I used to get so down thinking that I was failing at my goal however, I quickly discovered that TOM was the culprit.....evil SOB, so I decided to not weigh myself during that time anymore. :)

Hershey Nuggests....creamy milk chocolate with toffee chips are my fav and I am about to go buy a bag right now!! Must have during PMS, so I eat them once a month...can eat a whole bag....mmmm.....luv 'em!

what results are you expecting, other than pooping your brains out? Any weightloss achieved by this is purely temporary as soon as you eat, you'll gain it back.

day 1 of c25k IS the hardest, I dont know how fast you were going but can I suggest, slow down and go for endurance rather than speed. speed will come......I never ran before c25k and I just did w7d1....you can do it.

I know we tend to beat ourselves up when we "mess up" but really, it's no big deal. It's ONE DAY, not one week, not one month. Drink lots of water and move on. You'll be just fine....promise :)

Although not a migraine, I went running with a horrible sinus headache....ugh, I thought my head was going to explode. I completed the run but nearly cried on the way home, popped a percocet and went right to bed. I will never do that again. I wouldnt recommend it, I say stay home, get better then attempt working out once…

I dont have a cheat day once a week but at least 2 a month. Prime example, on a Friday I totally binged. I had 3 slices of pepperoni pizza, soda, beef patty with cheese and some chips as a snack. I felt so bad about it but when I got on the scale about 2-3 days later, I actually lost! By no means am I saying to go crazy…

I always thought " I look damn good" even when I was weighing 245. I couldnt see how fat I was in the mirror and with pics my thought was "I am not photogenic at all' Not once did I think that I was fat, even though my pant size was a 22. Now , it;s the opposite, when I look in the mirror at 171 pounds, I see a fat person.…

I bake it for maybe 2 hours then cut in half and shred the insides with a fork.....it comes out looking like spaghetti. I prepare either turkey meatballs or just ground beef, add spaghetti sauce and yummy....It's delicious :)

I started C25k 6 weeks ago. 2 more weeks to go!!! whoohoo! I went from never running....EVER! to running 20 minutes straight. So trust me, stick with it and you too will be a runner in a matter of weeks. Never feel bad about repeating a day or week. Some say no, to continue the program as is, however, when I felt that a…

When people know youre dieting they get all stupid and say dumb *kitten*. For example, at work, I took a small piece of brownie, just to get the taste, and a co-worker says : I thought you're on a diet?' so I said "who says I'm not, mind your business"

wait till he goes to bed and throw in a workout DVD.

I dont know if this movie is still on Netflix...The Stoning of Soraya M. It's subtitled, original language I think is arabic or something but trust, you dont need to know what theyre saying, you just know. Very sad ending but I think it's a good movie.

Depends on the damage. Have them do xrays. I thought my knee pain was just my body adjusting but no,,,,I have arthritis, and tons of spurs, and no cartilage left....just bone on bone. My Dr. doesnt want me running, or jumping, or kneeling, or squatting etc. I do it anyway but I do what I can tolerate. Eventually he says…

Thank you ladies......youre right...Patience.

c25k d1w1 is definitely the hardest. I did my 20 minute run today, with the update of their program, w6d2 is the dreaded 20 minute run. I have NEVER ran before starting C25k and to have accomplished the 20 minute run today is a major achievement for me. As for speed, I'm a sure a toddler on a tricycle is faster than I am…

How amazing !!! Congrats on your size 4!!! A few years back I had gone with my friend to a Fredericks of Hollywood and I was only looking at some lingerie and the sales chick came over and said we dont carry your size in the store, you have to shop online for plus sizes.....I simply told her, I'm not shopping, my friend…

My crave food is a Big Mac. Loaded with crappy calories but oh so yummy. I eat one every 1-2 months and guess what? I'm still losing. Yes I panic after I eat one, but when I weigh in and see a drop in number it makes the cheat day all worth while. No I am not encouraging you to binge on fast food but there's nothing wrong…

I feel your pain. My Christmas binge started 12/23 and ended 12/26. I re-gained 5.2 pounds. In a matter of 4 days, with getting back on track on 12/26, I have now lost those 5 pounds. It wont take you months to lose if you are really serious about getting back on the wagon. Good luck :)

thanks everyone!!! Gotta love MFP folks :) today I'm weighing in just to see what I've done to my goal these last 3 days, however, I am using my FREE PASS. ( I'm in a weight loss competition at work). Today is a new day......I woke up ravenous this morning, which is pretty unusual, however, given that I've been overloading…

I dont think using people to help you forget about someone is fair to any one involved, more so you. I was dumped 3 years ago by someone I loved more than anything. I've gotten past the hurt, but it's taken me a loooooooong time to even want to date. I really just dont want to put myself in a position where someone can…

Congrats!!! I totally love NSVs...theyre the best!
