I was tested a couple of years ago for the BRCA gene (linked to breast cancer). I tested positive for the BRCA2 gene and have been on Tamoxifin for that same length of time. I am becoming so dicouraged because I am constantly bloated and have also put on a few pounds that I cannot seem to lose. I walk at least 6 days a…

I have no idea how this happened, but I went out had 2 slices of gouda pizza, one glass of wine, and a diet coke and jack and lost half a pound.

Amusing. Good luck on the job hunt!

Absolutely! Isn't is sad that I am all wound up going out tonight and am putting all the emphasis on the food and drink instead of the entertainment factor? So here is how I will look at it (p.s. thanks everyone for getting me to think)... I will eat to live, not live to eat and have the time of my life tonight while doing…

Thanks, Love the idea of logging everything before I go out. I feel more accountable already. Also- your quote about being the only that can do it is me is so spot on !!!!!

One slice :cry: I am Italian I have never heard of such a think -hehe

Too Funny! I think a glass of wine is sounding better.

I would watch my back with that ladie. (Having been in HR before this sounds all to familiar).

:laugh: LOL!!!! I am just the type of personality to order one just because of the name.

As a matter of fact I have worked with this individual, actually probably not but someone very much like her. In my incident the women, manager, also was controlling and loved to have all of the attention on herself. She was constantly looking for ways to not be the bad guy and so if or when an incident happened in which…

I guess that means no popcorn at the theater. I have to prepare myself because I am going to be with friends who sabotage me everytime we go out. I don't think they do it on purpose but they don't stop pressuring me to order even though they know I am trying to lose weight.

AMF?

Was the 60 calories a cup for a cup of vodka? or for the drink? Oh yeah- Have fun on your girls night out!

Acutally, the cheeseless pizza is really good. That may be why I am so worried about the calorie content. hehe Good suggestion on the miller 64.

I want to join too! I propose that pipinana is the leader of this, especially since this is the only person responding to everyone asking to join. What do you all say?

I am going out for drinks, pizza and a movie tonight. I do not want to blow it... We are going to a new place that serves cheeseless pizza. It is just pizza crust, roasted veggies, and red sauce. Anyone have ideas on the calorie content or a better choice for me to eat at a pizza place? We are going to a theater that sells…

With great help from you all this makes sense thanks. It is so funny because my mind wants to tell me that this is wrong. But over the last two days I have tried to eat back the calories that I exercised, and amazing, I have lost half a pound. Thanks!

I agree. Alot to learn but so worth it.

Hehe - How many calories is advil. I worked my brain too hard. Just kidding. Thank you!:laugh:

Thanks. This is good information, alot to absorb, but helpful. Oyyy... I am showing my dumbness now but at least no one knows who I am so here I go... Does this mean then that as long as I CUT my calories by 500 a day, but stay within the range I should eat, that eating the calories I BURN will help me to burn the fat and…

I feel absolutely dumb asking this...But I don't understand the concept of eating the calories you burn. I thought that if you want to lose you shed pounds then burn calories, but if you wish to maintain then consume those burned calories? :ohwell:

Thanks, you inspired me today to do my best!:smile:

:smile: Congratulations! Keep movin!

YOU GO! I did the same tonight. some people may say 5 minutes big whoop... but every second counts when your just starting out and feel like your dying. heheee

Okay, I suck. I think I have done 150 since I said I would do this last week. I need MOTIVATION, MOTIVATION, MOTIVATION!

I just had to look at what you were all talking about and now I have to say, " Blah". I have eaten some odd things in my life time but truthfully nothing that I think looked as disgusting as the posted photos, or so I thought while eating them. One of the worst things I ever ate was ice cream on bread with peanut butter...…

That sounds great. Thanks!:drinker: :drinker:

Thanks for the motivation and well wishes everyone. I am sending my best to all of you as well. I just joined a challenge on one of the other posts to do 300 crunches a day. I counter challenged with 90 push ups ( to be done as well as the crunches). I just started eating just fruit and veggies today, well I had a rice…

I'm in 300, right? I don't even do 20 now but I am desperate to get moving. How about adding 90 push ups to that challenge? (15 reps 6 sets throughout the day)

Hi- just joined today. My boyfriend asked me to marry him and so now it is crunch time before the wedding. (Hehee no date yet; still deciding). Any other brides to be out there. What are you doing to loose the weight? <a href="http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker"><img border="0"…
