Everyone is different so I wonder why they don't just keep the different systems and let everyone do whichever one they want but still keep the support meetings? Seems silly to me when the end result is really the same....portion control leading to weight loss. Honestly if they even still offered the calorie system for old…

This lol

The lube comment is a hard act to follow. But I'm still hung up on this the kilt reference earlier. Were there pics?

I'm 43 and a return member. This site has the best tools and I'm in it for the long haul this time. So any adds would be appreciated :)

Thanks! I added you. Looking forward to sharing on the journey

you are most welcome :)

I know this started on the 2nd but I'd like to join in. 25lbs is my first weight loss goal because whenever I get under 300lbs I have tons of energy. With having so much to lose I won't have any problem losing that by September.

"kitten" references everywhere but I have no clue. But I guess that's better than "clue" references everywhere and having no kitten. I still don't get it :)

Oh and jgnatca, I'll have to try that since they seem to have changed the taste.

Artificial sweeteners are all different and affect people differently. And I'd have to disagree about saccharine just getting a bad rap. I don't need a lab test to tell me that. My mom had me on that crap since I was a kid and it definitely has side affects. It took me years to realize it was making me sick and when I quit…

P.S. I have PCOS and insulin resistance. I'm managing it but am looking forward to talking with others in the same boat

I completely related to your story. And I'm not about to do surgery. I'm sure it's worked for some but that's not for me. Please add me :-D

I have at least 100 lbs to lose. Please add me :)

I think it depends on whether that kid is the one kicking the back of my seat for the ENTIRE flight and being generally annoying while their parent is doing nothing....true story, lol. (no I didn't cuss the kid out but he got my mean look and mean tone when I told him to knock it off) But seriously, I don't cuss that much…

I fell at work once and I knew I'd hurt my arm but I didn't think it was that bad. I worked at a group home so had been out with one of the girls and I even drove back to the house. But I called my supervisor to go have it checked because I couldn't straighten it. She had one of my coworkers drop me off and pick me up from…

There's alot of good advice in this thread but I also alot of comments I had to cringe at. Honestly anyone not having this problem with a mate/spouse should count themselves lucky. It's VERY common and definitely not something you just ditch your mate over. That said I don't think there is one simple solution. I offered by…

I have a similar problem with my husband's eating. I've always had to cook differently even when I wasn't eating healthy and my husband LOVES junk food. So I realized I had to accept that this was the situation, that I couldn't change him and work around it somehow. And cooking two meals got old fast. Here was the…
