Good morning, good September! I want to lose 5 lbs this month. Started at 180, now 178.3

Your starting weight for September = 178.8 Your personal goal for September = 170 Your personal self-challenge for September = join the gym, start weight lifting again

Name: Kathryn Height: 5' 4" Starting Weight (12/1): 171 Goal Weight (12/31): 167 12/8: 12/15: 12/22: 12/29: 12/31:

When you see a bad food, think of what you don't like about it. Pick one that you like, though, so you can indulge on that one thing at Christmas, like a piece of pie. For example, sugar cookies (them being ubiquitous), think about how you would feel if you ate a dozen, what you would look & feel like after eating a dozen…

I think one day a month on just juice would be great. The stomach gets used to being filled up, so on fast day it would shrink a little bit, making the next day that much easier. I have a blood sugar problem, or I would do it.

Zip lines are so much fun! Don't wait to be a certain weight, do it now!

Well done, congrats! I never considered tying my shoes without sitting down or using a step. I'll have to go see if I'm missing something...

The next question being do the caps work on UTI's? Or the juice for that matter. I've only had success with antibiotics.

I think it's time to use the garbage can. It's only fair when they buy your favorite ice cream. Just throw it out.

Thanks, it sounds good! No more delivery for me!

My bicycle. It's roadie that's really light and fun to ride. I bought it used, don't know the specs but it's a nice one that requires shoes to clip into it with.

I could never drink a whole gallon each day, but I do drink 8 glasses pretty easily.

When I drink too much I eat "forbidden foods", don't have sex with people, just saying... On the other hand, the phone call the de-friending and the counseling is saying a lot. Maybe "afiance" for another year.

I'm really not interested in govt telling us what to do. Note Bloomberg's decree that pizza deliveries cannot include 2 liter bottles of pop. This is the over-reaching of the nanny government. We have far less physical work that is necessary to do than we used to. We could make choices, like washing our own cars, mowing…

Use it like cabbage... I do various cole slaws, not sure about cals, but use mayo and yogurt, probably cuts the fat in half. I like making it on the sweeter side, so might add apples, carrots, raisins, oranges, orange juice and/or walnuts.

Sounds like concentration-camp thin. My daughter looks good at 5'0", varying between 100-110.

Childless patrons have their own reward. ;)

This is over a lifetime. BK is not my fav place. Taco Bell gave me someone else's order once. Tried it, wished I hadn't.

Drive thru/take away experiences: BK overcharged me. I complained right there and he wouldn't have any of it. I overpaid, then sent a note to the DA, who audited them. BK made me a burger w/o the burger. That was when they just started vegie burgers, which is what I'd asked for. BK food poisoning w/ a chicken burger.…

I'm 1/2 way too, isn't it great? Your 2nd pix is gorgeous! It will only get better this year.

Your pictures are an inspiration! Ya did good! I will lose 20 lbs again this next year, for a total of 50.

Very well done!

Congrats, isn't it incredible? Keep it up!

Hate to pop ur bubble, but the 1st few lbs lost would definitely be muscle. I usually gain a couple after a good weight lifting session.

Start wimpy, so wimpy that it doesn't hurt. That goes for starting any weight lifting regimen. If there is no way to avoid aggravating it, then don't do that exercise again. Swimming is great! Just my opinion.

Lowering carbs was my ticket, too. But about 120 per day and a slower loss.

ROFL, sorry about that, though!

Both.

Maybe less people in prison for victimless crimes. But I was just *very* disappointed that Colorado voted for Obama. The two were probably interrelated, JMHO.

I use LiveWell Center's Detox Essentials. As long as your budget warrants it ($80/14 servings, egads!) it is very satisfying meal replacement. 303-399-8050 to order. Cal 230; protein 26g; carb 19g; fat 6g; fiber 19g. Lots of vitamins & minerals. Sweetened w/ stevia, not too sweet.
