Don't feel bad at all. I just posted my "before" picture that was taken in September. Wow...That is a hard picture to have as my picture on this site but it helps me as I am at home today and have been really good but I really want to be bad. Looking at that picture has helped, but I don't like to be working from home but…

Welcome to the site...your right we are all trying to get to the same place..healthy happy people!!! Not to say that we are unhappy people, but if your healthy you get happier! :) Nopogal...where are you doing boot camps at? I have done 2 so far here in Oregon and am on week 3 of the current one...would be interested to…

I have tried them all, Herbalife, Hoodia, Slim Fast etc, etc, etc.....basically it boils down to this....and trust me this was a crappy truth for me to hear.... Eat healthy and exercise and take your vitamins....that is it....3-5 small meals a day, and exercise....I think we all know what to do but unfortunately being…

JM~ I have been there too, I had a woman come running up to me and I mean she was moving and asked when I was due! I told her 10 years ago but I just couldn't "bear" the thought of getting rid of the memory of being pregnant!:cry: I wasn't as strong back then and let me tell you I ate ALL my feelings!!! I am so glad you…

Great idea for EBAY.....like they say it is much more fun when you "win" it :smooched:

Mary...good ideas!! Normally it is the "woman" who shops...oh no he LOVES to shop...I should send him to the mall more often with just his license to "window shop" :happy: Dhays- Thank you...I am going to work on that. I try to praise him when he does even the little things. Even vaccuming takes him out for a couple of…

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOOK OUT BABY MOMMA IS GOIN SHOPPIN~!!:laugh: :flowerforyou:

Hi Sherrill, I agree with you...I think that everyone needs to eat what they need to eat so that they don't lose muscle weight, and that if your shy of your "goal" of calories for the day that is ok... Just keep chuggin the aqua...I will sometimes put the Crystal Light On The Go Immunity in my water. My favorite is the…

Well we are very glad that your here....remember if you have a question, ask it....if you have a rough day....share it....if you lose weight, shout it out to the world.... We are all striving for the same goal....just know that we are here for you....Welcome :smooched: :flowerforyou:

Oregon City, Oregon End of the Lewis and Clark Trail....woo big time here :tongue:

I wish I could get my hubby to do anything...he has sarcoidosis which is in his lungs and makes any type of exertion very hard on him. I understand the disease and the consequences but he won't even try to walk to the end of the street. I told him that I would do anything that he wanted to get him mobile and getting some…

I live in Oregon City, Oregon and I know that they have one in Washington State. I can give you the email for the guy that does our camp. He has a great network and might know of some other people that can start one or help you start one!!! :smooched: My email is serenity1272@hotmail.com Thank you so much for the…

As alot of you know I have been doing a womens boot camp every morning. It ran from November 3rd to the 17th...I had to wait another week for my weigh in and measurement session. So that was a total of one month. Well I just got back and let me tell ya gus... :noway: I could care LESS about the scale...granted I did lose 8…

Congrats Banks!!!! wooohoooo I got on the scale today and it has been one month to the day....I have lost 8 lbs!!!! Yipeeeeee

I am wearing a pair of jeans that I haven't been able to wear since last year!!! I have dropped a size.... Congrats to you that is such a fun and great feeling.... YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Raz.....Your a rock star :glasses:

Dang Katie...You GO GIRL!!! If I even tried to run for that long there would be a LINE of ambulances trying to give me oxygen.... You are an inspiration...I want to be able to do that so bad...one step at a time though....

Thanks Mike....I know you probably hear it all the time but if you hadn't started this I would have been so lost...You sir are a ROCK STAR!!!! :flowerforyou: :drinker:

I agree Angela.... Happy Turkey Day!!! Enjoy your families, your friends, all of your loved ones....treasure the moments and always remember.... DON'T EVER GIVE UP....you never know when the miracle is coming your way......cause it is....have faith.... May everyone be blessed and have very safe and happy…

Well I still haven't looked but am wearing jeans that I haven't worn in over 7 mos!!!! I finished boot camp but won't weigh in until I start the next one on the 26th....so this has been a LONG time since I weighed in...I started at 250 when I joined so I don't know where I am....I know it has to be at least a bit…

I agree that it might be water, hormones, sodium....there are tons of explanations but the thing is that you recognize it, want to do something about it and are willing. Sometimes it happens. I have gained and lost over 5 lbs in a day from breakfast thru dinner. Your body is just having a "moment". Don't worry, you will be…

:noway: WOW I thought I was the only one this weekend! I finished Boot Camp for women on Friday, ate chinese for lunch, good dinner though. Saturday did ok till we went to friends house for "game night" (by the way Uno Attacks is a blast!!!) and snacked my way thru the evening on lots of good salty stuff and dip...then…

Boot camp was over on Friday but got up today and went to the gym and did 1/2 hr on the treadmill and then did another 1/2 hr on some other torture devise but I did it and since I have to do both my "pre/post" boot camp on the same day (Monday the 26th) I figure I can't go wild this week....I told him he was just plain…

By the way my brother in law is a hockey coach for a national high school traveling team outside of Flint, and I was born in Edina MN so this is truly a small world.....GO VIKINGS!!!!!:drinker:

Hi Julie, Serenity is what I strive for everyday (sometimes every minute) and 1272 was the last 4 of my phone number when I was a little kid in Enumclaw Washington. Sentimental and serene....ahhh one can always hope:glasses: :ohwell:

I did both the electrical one and the pinch one...The electric one is more accurate in my opinion but it is easier and cheaper to do the pinch ya in the "giggly" places. At least your having it done. It is so cool to see that your getting healthier and that you are making progress. Even if the scale doesn't move you know…

Thank you!! I haven't weighed myself so that is ok...I joined the "no weighing" group so I have 4 more days but I want to get the other stuff correct... Have a great evening!!! :wink:

First off don't feel like your the only one...I have found the flavored rice cakes....the white cheddar are only 45 cals each and they cure the salty, crunchy craving.... On a side note....JEN YOU ROCK!!! I am going to make those cookies....that is so GREAT!!! I am also all over the Skinny Cow bars.... Thanks for all of…

I didn't have my actual measurements when I originally did my profile and guessed and man was I off. My boot camp director just emailed me and I want to change the original ones....so that I can show my progress....can anyone help??? Pretty please :flowerforyou:

Welcome Kylie! (KyKy)...hang in there!!! Your among friends and people who definitely understand...:glasses: :flowerforyou:
