nope still blue boxed question marks :explode:

Ok I'm wondering if it is bc I made my photos on flickr private...one more try... Again, about 1 1/2 years ago, I lost 18 lbs. Since then, I have put on about 8 of it again(on a good day). I'd like to lose the last 8 lbs and hopefully get my bloating and IBS under control (which I get from my momma and grandma!). Anyways,…

did anyone else just just blue boxes with ? marks when they tried uploading (my pics are from flikr)

ok lets try again!

I tried making a collage of these pictures but I'm not tech-savvy enough apparently! Anyways, I hope these images work :ohwell: First time I've posted any photos (or taken pics of myself in a bikini for that matter!). I was inspired by all of you guys and your confidence so I just changed into my suit at 10pm at night…

you and the dress look beautiful!! very flattering!

It is the worst feeling, I know!! Last Saturday I weighed 146.5 (woohoo!) and on Monday I weighed 150 again (boo!) :grumble: It is just water retention, which not only makes your weigh a little more, but also makes you feel bloated and "fat". Just do as everyone has mentioned and drink lots of water to keep your system…

preferred lettuce (i like spring mix) light goat cheese 1/2 tbs of sunflower seeds (shelled) 1 tbs of craisins 2 tbs of light balsamic vinaigrette can adjust amount of toppings to your liking!

Oh yeah, I love a low cal wrap or pita with sliced turkey, low-fat feta, lettuce, and a splash of light italian dressing! You can throw in any other veggies too.

Mozzarella, tomato, pesto, and balsamic on any preferred bread... eat half of the sandwich (or whole) with a salad or fruit and veggies...YUM I'm honestly not a big sandwich person, but I love weight watcher bread bc it's low cal but still fluffy and good. I sometimes throw a couple slices of weight watcher cheese on bread…

9 for the abs! can't see your face though :tongue:

mmm!

I usually go by the ounces. I heard somewhere that you should drink half of your weight in ounces of water daily so I try and drink 75 oz. a day. I love water too but I work in a laboratory and we aren't allowed having water or food at our desks or lab benches for safety reasons, so I have to remind myself to go out in the…

We are very similar in stats! I am 23, 5'4" and 146-150 (depending on water weight!). I'm sure your weight gain is the same issue I have. Last week, I weighed 146 on Saturday and 150 on Monday!! I know it is incredibly discouraging so I try to only weight myself once a week to avoid the daily fluctuations from water. Also,…

Been there, done that! I've actually been in a rut for a few weeks now :explode: I will have a few good days and then multiple bad ones so I am just stuck in the same spot. However, I ran into a friend over the weekend and they mentioned a party at a lake the second weekend in August so now I have a goal! (bathing suits…

sounds awesome! thank you!

I understand completely. I think pictures can be very discouraging! I went out with some girlfriends the other night and was so excited about my new size 6 jcrew pants and then I saw a picture of the 3 of us and I looked 2 times bigger than both of them! (They are both in very good shape, but still...). For the rest of the…

wow those look yummy and creative! I have been in a rut recently with trying to think of yummy, healthy lunches to pack! If you don't mind telling me how to make that chick pea salad, that would be great! It looks so good :love:

I have the same issue. Someone suggested WaterEx to me. It is sold at GNC and is an all natural product that you can take on a daily basis. I started taking it and drinking more water and although it did seem to help me pass water more easily and not hold on to it, I did notice that I stopped "going number two". For me…

seriously awesome! great job!!

It's happened to everyone so don't worry! Just get back on track right away and stay away from the scale for a few days to get the water weight off and you'll be just fine! Someone once told me "If you dropped one dish and broke it, would you throw the rest of the dishes out?" No of course not! In other words, those two…

I think you look great! I think a more supportive top would be better, but your body looks great :) I am a 34 DD so I can completely relate with the swim suit top issue! I have a hard time finding cute tops that have enough support. I always go for halter tops with thicker straps to lift the big ladies up! :tongue:…

My only concern is that it isn't a sustainable lifestyle for many (maybe it is for you). I could never do it because I would have a hard time eating all my calories at once without feeling bloated and overly full and then not being hungry for another 24 hours. Also, I can't see your diary but I have a feeling that if you…
-
I think that the key here is maintaining this as a lifestyle forever. Even if you do lose weight eating one big meal a day (and getting to eat whatever you want then), this won't be an easily managed lifestyle. I know its really hard to change the way you eat and think about food (I still struggle) but it's those changes…

I am a bloated mess the week before and the week of my period :( I look 6 months pregnant! I don't weigh myself the week of my period and usually wait about 2 days after to weigh again because I know it will only discourage me if I see an extra 5 lbs that are just water weight from my period. Just take a break from the…
