Ok, this made me LOL!!

Wow! he biggest thing I noticed was when you were heavier, the pics were very dark, and no smile. Seems like the more weight you lost, the brighter the pics got and the bigger that beautiful smile got!! And pretty lady, you do have a beautiful smile! Looking at these pics made me very happy and just what I needed today, so…

Someone above wrote "we can do this" I wish there was a LOVE button!! That is exactly it, honey, you aren't alone! I wish I found this community when I was 9. I may nothave gotten fat! Lol!! Feel free to add me. I had the lap band and have been put on a special diet for maximum weight loss. (do I always follow it? NO, Im…

NEVER and have no intention of starting! It may be a healthier option than most fast food, however the meat is loaded with nitrates and are one of the most used cancer causing agents in the U.S. YUCK!!

Coming from a woman that has had problems, GO TO THE DOCTOR! Could be nothing, but then again....and Im not just talking pregnancy! The soner you know is always good on all counts!!

I am so sorry this happened to you!! Ive had similar things happen with strangers and I ignore them. I know it's tough, but after the first rude question, I no longer engage in a conversation. I look busy loading the conveyor belt, or pick upa magazine and read, or better yet, grab your phone! Once I said " Yes, I know I…

you must be in the south, lol!! These belles dont like to cook!! Thats one reason my hubs went looking for a Yankee like me! Lol!! He didn't even mind a lil extra weight!! He enjoys cooking but not after a 15 hr day! NOW, his dinner is ready for the table when he gets home! And I ENJOY doing it for him! <3

You need to do what makes you HEALTHY! So many confuse our being overweight with being about how we LOOK, and it isn't about that at all, it's about being HEALTHY! Tell them to MYOB!

If you walk your dog every day it wouldn't count as exercise IF you have adjusted properly in your profile how active you are. In the begiining when you set up MFP it asked how active you are...sedentary, moderate etc., and I believe it defines each. If not, you can look it up on Livestrong.com (another great site/tool to…

Look at my profile pic!! Im inked and PROUD!! I have one more, other than my chest piece, but getting more!! My chest tattoos saved my life!! Literally!! They made my quality of life soooooo much better!! I had very large scars from surguries....they were high up too...I COVERED my scars with Tattoos!! GENIUS!! Now, I…

ANYTHING by Mitch Albom. LIFE CHANGING. Seriously. My 2 favorites are Have a Little Faith, and The Five People You Meet In Heaven. And No, watching the movie is NOT the same! Keep in mind that although these books have a religious undertone (but I PROMISE they are not preachy!!) I am an Atheist, and I LOVE these books and…

ONE THOOOUUSSSAAAND PERCENT, AGREE!! UGH! I do not even consider people who say things like that friends!!

Honey, when I quit eating crap, so did my daughter!! She eats what I make=HEALTHY FOOD!! Good habits start NOW! Just sayin... :heart: I don't even have that crap in the house!

When you and your adult daughter (who is your ONLY child) that you had at 15 and raised alone fight for a whole year after she goes to college, then finally make up, and she says "Mom, I want you to go get a matching tattoo with me, so no matter where we are, we will always be together" and you DO IT even though prior to…

OH MY GOD....MICKEY'S "HOT DOG SONG" and have any of you seen Bubble Guppies? Holy heck...I keep singing the Outside song all the time. [/quote] Oh god those are my two....aaaaarrggghhh!! HEEELLLPPP!!! or is my 3 yr old asks "what time is it?" and I break into song..."it's time for lunch" makes her mad every time!! LOL!!…

when you're in the middle of dinner and hear a shout from the other room that says "Mommy, can you come wipe my butt?"!!!

I used to think tattoos were trashy, UNTIL....my daughter and I got into a disagreement that lasted a year, she was away at college and did not even come home. I had her when I was 15. We were extremely close, and I raised her all alone, all we had was each other. My heart was BROKEN, and I wanted to die without her. We…

:heart: I just read this! LOVE IT!! WHat a beautiful person!! :flowerforyou: :heart:

YES it IS emotional abuse!! Sounds to me like your STUPID BF is insecure about HIMSELF and is putting you down to make himself feel better about the jerk he is!! I don't care who you are, you DESERVE to be treated MUCH BETTER!! I tell all my girlfriends this and I MEAN it, settle for NOTHING LESS than a man who WORSHIPS…

OM YES!!! In my experience...bald or balding men are better lovers! Seriously!! And one more thing, DITCH the hat! NOTHING is sexier on ANYONE that displays confidence! :wink: BTW, Im a former skinny chic....Im working on my way back there, but I just didn't want you to think I only felt that way after I got fat. I felt…

My favorite movie: Nowhere to Run (I think??) French version is Le Femme Nikita "I never did mind about the little things" after she witnesses a cleaner murder her coworker. I use this line on friends going through a super hard time, it always makes them laugh! :flowerforyou:

carbonation is the devil!! Try the MIO flavors for water...in a triangular plastic portale container. Found in with Kool Aid...zero calorie too! Crystal light..there are several brands of zero or low cal flavors to add to water. FOOD OPTIONS: high protein...quality protein...low fat. Energy bars are usually very high in…

Is it possible you maybe made a mistake when calculating your activity level? I know I did when I originally came on here...I think they shoudl define activity levels better....and someone else said it depends on WHAT you are eating as well. Caloried vary greatly per brand as well...but if your eating all good food, which…

It's always ok to be pissed if something bothers you! Im not a fan of "wrong" emotions...you feel what you feel! The question is WHY do you feel this way? I mean REALLY? Are you upset at being slighted? Are you angry she left before the food came? Are you angry she didn't help pay? Are you angry she didn't partake in the…

Uuuuhhhh probably the chocolate industry! I love chocolate, but it never kept my weight down!! UGH!!

Apparantly I am a dumb dumb when it comes to quoting...lol!! ANYWAY....I saw something once that definately aplies here...saw it on Facebook...."Maybe you should EAT makeup so you will be pretty on the INSIDE" Baaahahahahahaaaa!! I would have just turned around and said THAT!! LOL!! I saw your picture, and honey, she was…

Oh honey! I felt silly too, and finally I realized 2 very important things...with my husbands help....1) our husbands do not see us as we do, they see us BETTER. Self confidence is the sexiest thing of all...SERIOUSLY! And .....2) I decided I would be MORE embarrassed to be lethargic and have my kids NOT see me working…

My best friend 25+ years...has always b een thin, attractive. 5' tall, and 110 lbs, size 5 jeans etc. I used to be her size too, for many many years, then I quit smoking, eating 3x per day had health issues that the smoking was actually masking..hypothyroidism. ANYWAY, Im almost double that size now, but losing. Im am a…

I make something similar, but I also add salsa verde to the meat...and use shredded cooked, seasoned (with onion and garlic powder and cumin) chicken! I place that in bottom of the pan, helps it hold together well. Also, no rice, Im not supposed to eat it, I use black beans for added protein/fiber/complex carbs, and corn!!…
