Sounds like an excuse to eat. You can't depend on other people to motivate you, support you, or make you happy. That's something you need to do for yourself. YOu're a grown man, you don't need babysitters to make sure you eat right and exercise. You need to find your own motivation and your own reasons for losing weight,…

French Bagels

Not my sort of soup, but wanted to give you a heads up. You link's still aren't working.

I was there last month for the garlic naan (I use it as a pizza crust) and they didn't have it. When I asked they said they were looking for a new provider. She didn't know when it would be back in stock. Major bummer!

Looks like Abducted by TR Ragan.

Really? I gave you a list of acceptable alternatives for getting your iron from cold cereal. You made no mention of any of those. There are some great foods on there that taste wonderful. I also suggested you pull up your big girl panties and learn to eat the foods that are GOOD for you instead of searching for childish…

Pretty much this. Pull on the big girl panties and do what needs to be done.

This should be awesome.... but but..... I was counting on you...

In a different thread the post has said she doesn't like to swallow pills and doesn't care for the taste of her Flinstone's Chewables.

Ok, stick with me here. This is going to sound radical and extreme but don't overlook it so fast. I realize this is SERIOUSLY crazy stuff I"m about to say but.... How about you look for real food that contains natural iron (instead of 'enriched' foods) and eat less processed crap (don't get me wrong, I adore my Honey Nut…

Every little bit adds up. For bathroom breaks I use the furthest restroom on the work campus. I didn't used to take my 10 minute breaks but I do now and use it to walk. My half hour lunch is split 50/50 walking then eating (I eat the main part of the lunch during my 15 minutes then nibble on the veggies/side for another…

It's set for 105 but i rarely get more than 80-90.

The dentist went 100X better than I anticipated. I broke a tooth last year and had to put off fixing it. I didn't have Dental insurance and MowMow needed surgery so he came first. Now of course the tooth is infected and painful. I added Dental during the open season so I could get it taken care of.... but kept putting it…

Thursday Truth. I have a dentist appointment and I'm nervous as heck. I've only ever had one dentist my whole life and I was afraid to go to a different one so since I've moved cross country I haven't been ... until now when I have some serious tooth pain. I was up all night stressing about it. My actual Thursday Truth is…

To be fair, she may not realize how she's coming across. She may just be jealous or worried you'll find new thinner friends and move on... whatever. I suggest talking to her about it before you make any extreme actions... but I WOULD deal with it. It's not a healthy relationship.

If I have a whole week of high sodium I can gain up to 5lbs, easily. No, it wasn't a personal attack or meant to be judgemental but it can cause increased frustration and make someone on the edge want to give up instead of motivating them to keep going.

She's jealous and being a *kitten* about it. You don't need that negativity about this great thing you're doing for yourself. Talk to her about how this is making you feel and then if she can't be supportive you know she's not a real friend.

Yeah, tell her to support you like a real friend or find a new person to boss around.

I think that opening your diary would be a big help. It could be water weight from sodium, but with the amount you have to lose it should practically fall off with exercise and a drop in calories. (At least it was that way when I started and 180lbs to lose). I'd make sure you're are measuring and weighing your food and…

I don't think I'd trust anything named Dr. Gourmet..... I'd choose an accredited medical institute over some random schmuck.

Oops. Double posted accidentally.

Mrs M! Always lovely to see your beautiful smiling face here too! @Tanya949 I can relate to the sore feet with old shoes! I switched to the New Balance 928s a while back and ther'es no going back for me now! They have a rollbar built in that force me to walk squarely and make all the difference in my ankles, knees, and…

*OR* you could support a local small farm that treats their animals humanely and with respect. Wouldn't that make more sense? Reward those who are doing it well and perhaps more will follow?

@garysgirl719 - That sounds like a fantastic goal. Developing exercise habits will definitely help you along the way. @grandmakaye44 - I never slack on water for medical reasons but I can tell you, it's NOT always easy. There are plenty of days where I don't feel like drinking that much and I have to force myself to drink…

That and Velveeta, they are considered cheese 'products'.

When the calf is raised humanely and treated with respect I see no problem with eating veal. YOu haven't lived until you've eaten hand breaded hand raised veal.... wowza. Also, not *ALL* babies are taken for slaughter. A well bred bull will be saved for breeding. A well bred cow from a good producer will be kept for a milk…

Oh, and just because I love showing off my 'kids'. MowMow is turning 11 this summer, it was touch and go for a few months after his double lumpectomy last year but he's hale and hearty now! Book is the same as ever and still waiting for the Tidy Bowl Man to make an appearance. He turns 4 this week. Little Neelix will be a…

@RobinB0812‌ - Sing it. I lost about 110 lbs and I've gained back about 65lbs. Not angry or disgusted with myself. Each bite was a conscious decision. I knew I was doing it and I knew better but I kept making excuses. Of course now, it's time to pay the price. Still not NEARLY back to the mindset I was in when I lost it…
