Wow, great advice for sure. I play the clarinet so you hit me right in the face with that analogy. I should have said, I love to swim. When ever I have a day off from work - I swim and I love to swim laps. When I had my knee replaced I swam and did water aerobics. I can't go there daily, because I work downtown and it's…

Thank you so much for your support. Can you tell me what you set your protein, fat and calories? The hunger went away actually on day one. I guess I'm a cheap date like booze or beer. I only need one. In fact, I actually had hunger pangs for the first time in years. I've never really fasted enough for my tummy to growl. I…

I'm starting today. Took the shot this morning. When did you notice the change in you? Food noise and weight loss? What do you eat per day?
-
Greg, I'm starting today. How are you doing now? How is your journey? Any suggestions? Kathleen

I'm so proud of you! How many calories? What type of diet? Can you add me?
-
People started to notice at 20 pounds. Most will not say anything. I don't care. Some want to know how...and others have told me that they feel bad since I'm losing weight and they are not? It is a touchy subject! I'm doing KETO and maybe don't agree with it saying it's not healthy. I feel great. Look so much better. My…

Wow you look great!

I've been trying to keep in 1200 but some days less and others more depending on activity level...or food choices. Since Oct to now 17 pounds down doing KETO. Add me ...I keep my diary open
-
I'm not doing Keto yet, but lower carbs and lower calories overall. I want to do it and have been going off of sugar. Over 50 days of logging. Down 12 pounds. From a size 22 to 18/20 depending on maker of clothes. My husband says that my tummy is getting smaller and my thighs? I put on a dress today and it fits again! I'm…

I'm 256 pounds...need to lose 150 myself. You are not alone. I just came back to do this right! Cut out your carbs, cut off all white stuff, flour, sugar and pasta. I'm on day 11 now. I feel better already. I hate what my body looks like but I know that I am beautiful and will be gorgeous in the end!!!! Add me as a friend.…

I too have been on a plateau - but my body is getting smaller. I encourage you to take measurements. I have done that and have found that inches are melting away. I have to say that I am building muscles and the fat is slowly leaving me. Just because the scale is not going down don't worry. At least it isn't going up! I…

I found them at CVS only one bottle on the shelf. I purchased two bottles from two different stores. So only two months worth. If it helps then great...if not I only spent $20 for the two bottles. 125 grams each 2 times a day I will post if I see anything or feel different. FYI found them in the diet area. I had to ask…

High I.Q. is pretty important...someone who loves what they do for work, creative, inventive, great eyes & smile....someone who gets me and likes my curves! A man in a suit is very sexy - I love grey hair- and someone who can make me laugh! That's HOT! My husband! He's a musician and plays guitar, bass, drums, key boards,…

I am thinking of trying them to add to diet and exercise. I've lost 20 and need to lose a lot more and I'm only taking a multi vitamin. My health is great and not to say this will fix me but is there evidence that it works? If so, I'm thinking of finding them locally or online. I found them online for 12.99 at this link.…

Depends on how good it is and then I only take a small piece and log it! If there are other choices that are better I will do that~ but don't feel you fail if you do eat some...if you have the will power to walk away great job! But if it's a celebration or party why not take a little and log it! Move on and be proud that…

Starting Weight 243 3/23/12 240 I'm doing pretty good. I need to exercise more! I'm feeling my stomach and it's getting soft. I think the fat is going away! I want to get to 200 pounds by the end of this session! I love me and I deserve this!:heart:
-
I log it when I do..because my life is very sedintary. Not great at all so when I do stuff, like walk the dog, swim laps, bike or do stuff like cleaning the house I write it down. I was really lazy, fat and didn't do much. Now my life has changed. My dog is more healthy now and we love walking super fast! Log it if you do…

Think about it! You were carring 3 ten pounds bags of potatoes on your tummy, and your back was getting so tired. Now your not! Good for you!!!!!
-
Me too! This week is killing me...I wanted chocolate so bad. Today, I was sick to my stomach and couldn't eat all I wanted was chocolate. I didn't give in but I want to! I'm praying that this shall pass. Please God send Aunt Flo away!!!!

When I read about people like you! You are an inspiration to me. Your a beautiful person inside and out. I can see me in you. I too look at my "Fat" picture and say, dang girl you need to love you! I do love me now. I got out of the pool yesterday after my workout at the gym and this attractive man stopped me. He said, you…

Freakin' awesome! I'm so happy for you!!!!! YES, put up a before and after pictures. I can't wait for the day it happens for me!:drinker: :flowerforyou:
-
Ok - I have a dirty mind! I spit!!!! Now, if you put in something you don't like do you spit it out? I do! The other day I spit out a donut that wasn't worth the calories!

Your body is going to thank you in the long run. I'm very very proud of you! Don't give up, now is the time to hang in there and do diet and exercise.…

Country Crock...not a good product. Can't read the list of ingredents and don't let the label fool you. If you have to eat some butter, eat butter - use a little. But I have baked using "Smart Balance". It works. But if I want a cookie baked and only eat one - bake them and give them away but eat at least one (1) in…
-
I do Smart Balance and it's great! Uses olive oil & another one uses Flax seed oil. Cost more, I don't use much and it's good tasting. I use it in baking or toast. I use olive oil for homemade pizza or homemade dressing. Those are my go - to fats now.
-
Find something you love to do that is physical! Walk, shop, swim, go to the beach, canoe, hike, and my favorite...have lots of great sex! That works too!:blushing:

Hormel Turkey bacon has worked for me. I'm a baconholic! My first few weeks had it all the time. Two slices 40 calories and I like it! Not fatty and I can do it in the microwave oven quick, just be careful don't want to burn it! I know I have and had to toss it away. My husband will eat it too. Sometimes I break it up in…

Awesome story, you are so beautiful ... to me! What a change in your life. You were beautiful before but now your fit and healthy. Thanks for sharing. I have a long journey and you should be so proud of yourself for doing it for you!
