Hello. I hear ya. Back on the Merry Go Round except it's not so merry!

<3 Hello SlowGrn1 I feel your pain as I too have very bad knees because of weight! I am here to support you!!! You can do it!!

I just started LCHF yesterday. My blood sugar is the best it's been in a long while. I have to say.. it's hard to wrap my head around this concept (especially the high fat part) but I am doing it anyways. Wish me luck!

That's amazing ElectraNine!

I decided to try the LCHF program and just starting today. I've never tried it before because it sounded so WRONG with the high fats. A doctor co-worker told me that is how she lost a bunch of weight and she looks like a different person! I am at the end of my rope, extremely obese and type 2 diabetic. I don't want to…

From Eastern WA here.. :p

OK - I THINK I FOUND THE CULPRIT. I had been taking a decongestant for about a week. I stopped it a few days ago and walah the bad dreams stopped! I haven't had any for a few nights now and I was having several a night! I read up on the med and found out it can overstimulate the brain.. Just thought I'd let you all know. :p

STLBADGIRL I will message you.. I don't want it in anyone else's mind.

Hi Peacock.. that's a lot to be proud of.. You can do it again! :)

@mikevtr Not cutting caffeine but not drinking my usual coffee drink, which I want! lol I don't smoke. :#

idnewlady: I don't care for black coffee much of the time either.. I just have a creamer and count the calories.. it's worth it to me. :)

Stress all the time. :( I have a fan on at night so I don't usually get too hot in bed. Thanks ladies. ;)

No, I'm not eating close to bedtime. I will have to keep a close on that, though. :smile:

Well, I made it a week! Woohoo! GO ME! And you all. ;o)

Oh boy.. Do you remember your dreams? Man, mine are horrid.. and it's not after me waching my WALKING DEAD show.. lol

I am diabetic. :'( All good points above.. A dietitian would really help you.. Also, there are support groups, though even though you are only borderline you could really benefit from. I work for a medical center and we have classes that my insurance paid for (that was open to the public as well.) It boils down to watching…

What are peoples thoughts on Apple Cider Vinegar for weight loss and health benefits?

Hello. My name is Connie and I have been backslidden from MyFitnessPal & Healthy Eating for quite some time. I am "once again" starting anew. I have got to lose weight for my health. I have so far to go that it is discouraging. Why is it that when you try to eat healthy that FOOD is all you think about?! I am disgusted…

I feel your pain and rejoice in your motivation! I am in pretty much the same boat. What really pisses me off is that I was doing so well here. I had lost 35 lbs.. and then I don't know what happened. I lost my mojo, I guess. I am just disgusted with myself! I have hated having to change my weight UP after seeing my ticker…

Sounds like it's finicky. I had one that did that and took it back..I'd get something else. I work at a medical facility and so I just weigh there.. Same scale (but I have checked against another one in a different department just to make sure they jive.) I want to get a new scale for home but I am afraid it will tempt me…

Aww thanks for sharing. Great job and you look wonderful!

Saying a prayer.

Right on!

Oh for cryin' in the mother lovin' wind!

I have A LOT to lose too. More than you... I agree with the others.. Try not to focus on the big picture. I am doing it in small goals - like 20 lbs. It took me a long time to add this weight and it will take some time to take it off. You know, time passes no matter what we do so we might as well just take one day at a…
