I have been on and off on this app. I have boomed over 200 pounds, I have no idea how much, but all my clothes are tight. At a recent family get together someone in my family told me that another member said no wonder she can't get a job, look how tight her clothes are. That was devastating, so now with some advice that I…

Wow I can so relate. I have to remind myself when I'm working out that I'm going to gain weight. I get so frustrated when I get on the scale or measure myself and I find I'm bigger, but my clothes are getting bigger. I don't get it. I hate cooking. I do like to go to the gym it's just getting motivated to get there. Once…

I hate grocery shopping so I eat on the fly. My trigger points are my daughter's house. I go there to babysit and I end up going eating fried foods. Some bad habits she picked up from me. When I'm at work I can stay close to my calorie count, but the weekend comes and I have problems again.

I'm with you on the arms. I'm waiting to build more sets. I only lift 5 pds too, but once I can lift several sets then I'll move up. :happy:

Quit talking about me. LOL Yep I'm guilty I have said all this. Now I have a great support team. My co-worker got me started working out and now I'm hooked. I'm walking, doing weights. My guy has two hunting dogs, so we go for long walks on the weekends when I can't make it to the gym. My clothes are getting loose. I feel…

Hello Ladies! I've been on here off and on. This time I'm serious about losing weight. After going over 200 and edging to 230. I've been going up and down. I lost weight and this week I gained all but 2 pounds back, but I started working out 2 weeks ago and now I'm losing more inches. It's been frustrating, but I realize…

I've been trying to limit myself on the fruit. Use this as desserts. I usually eat grape tomaotes and small cucumbers. I do believe tomatoes are considered a fruit, but in my mind they are vegetable. LOL and I'm sticking to that.:laugh:

Thank you. I will.:wink:

If you lose a pound a week that is 52 pounds a year! :love:

I eat what I want, but pay attention to the portions. If I have a big breakfast then I plan on taking a long walk. Otherwise I put down what I want to eat and see how many calories it will be if it's too much I try either changing it by not eating it or opt to remove the high calorie stuff. Like the other day I wanted…

Wow. Now that's encouragement. Question for anyone who sees this. When you do your excersise and recover those calories do you use them. I've been using them most of the time, but not all the time. I'm still losing weight only not as fast.:happy:

You are gorgeous

I agree. It is scarey, but we all have flaws. :wink:

Wow you look GREAT! Thank you for sharing. The other day I was discussing how much weight I lost and one of my co-workers overheard me. I had lost one pound. She reminded me that this is a big accomplishment. She said think about it if you lost one pound and there are 52 weeks in a year by the end of the year you would…

nice curves:smile: You look really good, I hope I can stay focused. I gained 70 pounds over the last couple of years. I can't stand looking at myself. So here I go. I lost only a pound this week, but I'm actually excited this time. Previous times when I lost only a pound I was frustrated, but I really want it this time. I…

Hello, I keep coming back here. A long time ago, my sister warned me about gaining weight when I got in 50's, but unfortunately I did not heed her warning. Now I'm over 200pds which I have never been. So now I'm struggling to change that. I now walk at least 4 days a week to the bus and back home. I take at least 15 min to…

Wow you don't look like your in your 60's!:happy:

what should you eat at 5' 4"?

You probably are toning up.This adds more weight, but eventually it will start to come off.

Wow what an inspiration!:smile:

Wow that's fantastic! Thank you for posting. Maybe that will give more incentive. I just started back up again. I lost 2 pds and was totally excited!

Dancing with papers LOL. I remember when I got served at work. My director walked me down to legal and I opened it up in front of her and yelled Yippee! I can finally be free of that JERK! We both had a good laugh. He dragged it out, but after it was final, I took a loan out and went to Hawaii with my daughter. We still…

I'm new too. I have gone over my limit for two days, but today I really looked at what I had to eat and compared it to yesterday. My breakfast was way less yesterday then today, but my lunch was more than yesterday. So my findings yesterday I had an egg white omlet, fat-free choc milk and was satisfied until noon. Only a…

I always wonder if you could take the water from a dehumidifer and use that. Free water. Jus saying. LOL:flowerforyou:

I'm sorry your answer just made me chuckle. I'm so bad at dieting. I started eating egg whites with veggies and low-fat choc milk. That fills me up until noon. I always eat at work, so I just buy something and eat only 1/2 and save the rest for the next day. For snack I eat piece of fruit. I've been taking at least a 20…
