My most prized gifts that I have received over the years for Mother's day are the cards that my kids have made. A store bought card does NOTHING for me. They are so generic. When my hubby gives me a card I pretend to be so touched but inside I am wondering if he even read the darn thing. Don't get me wrong, if my hubby got…

My step grandmother used to save the toys that used to come in cereal boxes and give them to my brother and I for Christmas. Also I am a salt-aholic. I have always been one. For Christmas when I was 16 my dad bought me a salt lick. The kind you put out for deer or cows... Gee thanks dad... I guess he was thinking about…

I had 105 to lose to get to my ultimate goal weight. I keep trying to change that number to 85. I am scared that I won't be able to maintain my weight loss. I am freaked out by how far I have to go. I am in it for the long run now. I can do it. I have a really slow metabolism. I know that once I get to my goal weight I…

Cracked me up too!

I was scheduled for the lap-band on 04/15/11. I cancelled my appointment and decided to give it one more go on my own. (I was paying the 10 grand out of pocket) My dr told me that after surgery when I went back to solid foods to only eat meat and veggies and some harder fruits. He told me that I would only be eating 1 to 1…

I could love swimming. I just need to get over the whole swim suit thing!

I was married to a guy when I was 20. I am 5'8" and weighed 140 pounds. He was always saying the meanest things to me. He made me feel horrible about myself. Just before our wedding he said that he was imbarresed to walk down the isle with someone as fat as me. I got down to 127 pounds. I figured that if I just lost the…

Well I am starting to see the fruits of my labor. I have lost almot 12 pounds. It is just a drop in the bucket and I have so far to go. I was feeling a bit down about that. I was in my closet and I saw some purple crop pants that I bought last summer. I ordered them from a catalog and when I got them and tried them on they…

I love little house on the prairie.

Ohhh! I like that one! "I have been on the cheese burger and donut diet. I have lost almost 12 pounds in three weeks. You should try it!"

You need to come up with a fantastic lie! Aliens came down in the middle of the night...

My son is considered obese if you do his BMI. He is 6'4" and weighs 260 which puts his BMI at 31.6. He has shoulders out to here and feet that are a size 15. His wrists are the size of my ankles. He is very muscular because he plays football. I think that they need to add some variables to that calculation!

I have told some people in my life what I am doing but I don't give them daily updates like I do on MFP. Seriously, do my co-workers really want to hear it every time I lose a pound? I need the "Woo Hoo" and the "atta girls" so I get them here. I want people to randomly ask me if I have lost weight. That is a big reason…

Non Scale Victory :o)

No, I chunky dunked Have you ever ordered more then you should in a fast food restaurant and then ordered a second coke so that they would think it was for more then one person? (ahhh the good old days...)
-
Thanks for your input. Your ideas are great! I am eating at my desk so that I am not tempted to order something that I shouldn't at a restaurant. My portions are so small that it takes me no time at all to eat and then I am board out of my mind for the remainder of the time. I think I will start with a good book.
-
Books are a good idea. I live in San Antonio so any kind of walking even if it is only 1 mph results in a sweaty mess. It is 90 degrees with high humidity outside. I get sweaty just walking out to my car! :o)
-
Ha Ha! This is one of my pet peeves! Actually, you COULD care less. What you actually meant was "I could not care less"
-
I feel your pain. I have only lost 8 lbs so far and I think it was 4 in each boob. My bra is loose. My hubby is so sad!

Can you swim? I can't swim like most people do. My neck does not turn far enough to breath and swim at the same time. I either need to use a snorkel or I use one of those little paddle boards that keep my head out of the water. It is a good low impact workout.
-
Hey! You lost a pound! You didn't gain any and that is wonderful! You were not watching what you ate but you maintained. That shows that weather you know it or not you were making some healthy choices or you would have gained a bunch! Good job!

I just thought of two more things to add to my list Have my veins in my arms show up better. You should see the size of the bruise on my arm from the doctor yesterday missing because he couldn't find my vein! It is the size of an orange! Be able to see my bikini area to shave! ( I know tmi but if you have a belly you know…
