This has been a great read!!! I have laughed and laughed, and I am counting the calories I am burning just laughing!!! So, molson girl, yeah your av is not the av that chased that little gum popper off! Or, maybe your av is realted to fluffy -- I loved the sneezing/caughing idea. You could also pick at things - but maybe…

You know what, its not morbid - its part of life. You are doing an amazing job! It must be terrifying and feel so frustrating, and yet, so sad, all at the same time. I hope you know we all would like to be able to do something, and yet, all we have to offer is our love, our support, and our prayers. Know you are not alone…

Fitting into clothes you couldn't wear before is great, isn't it! GOOOOO Heather!!

Here's a great one! My sister (if you check the pics on my profile, she is the pretty brunette with her husband at the edge of the grand canyon) is 46, looks about 25 AND is a personal trainer! :blushing: Yeah, that's pretty ironic, isn't it! We are lucky (I think its lucky - :huh: ) enough to have very different interests…

Hey, welcome! I snooped your profile. Great family, and good job being here! LuckyLeprechaun is great! You aren't the only mom and daughter dynamic duo, there are also Montana Momma and Indianagranny! Probably more, but I don't know them! Have fun and jump right in - MFP is a great place to get and stay motivated. Looks…

HI, gang, I wanted to check in before the new thread tomorrow. WHen I first got home, my high speed modem was on strike, again! So, it wook a while to get online. I get really frustrated when I can't check in and see what you are all up to. Swignal, great job! Its so smart to reach out BEFORE you slip up! In my work, I am…

WAIT!!! It was Maureen O'Hare. Madeline was the atheist, right?

CM, nice to see you back in your av. :happy: If that is you...... For all we know, you could be a 67 year old retired coalminer with a wooden leg and a collection of antique button hooks. I note your profile mysteriously changes from time to time. :huh:

Obviously, your husband is in cahoots with the scale snatchers! Better watch out! :laugh: :wink:

One last thing... AIG, really?? What kind of a liberal, sushi eating, prius driving hippy are you, anyway? :wink: That was the quote, wasn't it? "sushi eating, prius driving" as though they were bad things. Ah, politics, thats a subject for another website.

whew doogies! [drags herself in, collapses in front of the computer with a glass of water and loosens foundation garments. Hard to know why she uses an exclaimation previously used only by Jed Clampet!?] What a day! You all worked out, and I am exhausted! Have you seen that movie with John Candy and hmmmm... she's the…

Now, I am all confused, what day is it? But yes, I think its common. Recently on THE Team week 6, we talked about this very thing. Several ol us were grumpy, irritable, lethargic, and not losing. Most of us upped cals a little, or at least spread them out better, and started taking a good vitamin with Omega 3.6.9. Its a…

This looks good!!! :love: And, for those avoiding pasta, you could use strips of zucchini, or you could use crepes.

Dear Dave198 Forgive, forget, be kind or I shall unleash the wrath of Fluffy. This is Fluffy: Kristi (not to be confused with the Creator, but I was passing by and agreed to drop this letter off!)

Nita, I agree with everyone else, lets see the new do! And, you pamperers, its nice to see one can reward onself without food. New concept for me. Silly, I know... CM and (Drat, who else was hungry and ate a bunch, my notes fail me!) Anyway, I had that happen on Friday, I was starved all day! I ate all my meals and snacks,…

Is it per pound of body weight, or per pound of lean body weight? I always forget. :blushing:

Adopt4, see cm's message to me: Get off the scale, walk toward the light, drink your water, keep walking. Gargle, rinse, repeat! :tongue:

The Zone - Dr. Barry Sears. Ew, ew, ask me another one! :bigsmile: I am not too familiar with it, but when I was on the protein power plan, they (Drs. Michael and Mary Dan Eades) talked about the Zone. Seems like you eat the levels you are describing above, and in the right combinations. But, if you have googled it, you…

Depends on your weight and activity level, and of course, your gender. How much weight training are you doing? google on protein power and check out the science behind the diet, according to Drs. MIchael and Mary Dan Eades. That could lead you to far more information than you want, but its nice to know its there. And,…

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: You are correct Obiwan, thanks for the reminder! I am working on my reframe already! For example, yesterday, I re-did the measurements, and generally, they were down, waist, hips, upper arm, thigh all down from .25 to .5 inches since March 5. For some reason, my neck has increased .5 :huh: Perhaps I…

Morning everyone! I fear the dreaded plateau is decending upon me!!! (Or, I am decending upon it.) Ugh!! My weight hasn't changed since Friday, other than to go up about a half a pound for a minute. :grumble: :grumble: . I am going to wait until Friday to officially call it a plateau, but I fear the worst.. :sad: I will…

If you don't have access to a gym, you probably don't havve access to a pool?? bathedinshadow is right, very low impact. There is, however the horrible problem of swimwear! :noway: For me, thats a deal breaker! :blushing:

Do you have any weights at home? Do some lifting. Also, do you have good shoes? If you are somewhat flat-footed, or if you roll your foot out or in, you may want to look at a shoe with a good support. New Balance makes a great shoe. If your feet really suffer, I suggest checking out Finn Comfort shoes. But, be warned, they…

So, is your primary concern the possible toxicity of ketosis? In order to avoid dangerous levels of ketosis, DRINK YOUR WATER. You can also buy ketostix at most pharmacies to test you level of ketosis. And, Dedicated, I generally agree with you regarding the FDA, however, its important to look at the evolution of diets in…

Perhaps flintstone vitamins?

Wow, this is really serendipitous! I was pondering just today how I had a lot of energy when I first started the d--- oops, new lifestyle, but lately, I feel pretty sluggish. I think cm is right on target, adequate nutrition and micronutrients, and essential fats are critical. WONDERFUL INFORMATION!! There is a thread…

Hey, smontoya1 glad to meet you! I just saw your av change! Do you have a min pin? So do I! He's a holy terror! Thinks he owns the place. Always ready to do battle with the cats (which are at lesst ttwice his size) until one of them has had enough of him and gives him a gentle reminder of who REALLY is the boss.

Anita, good to hear that things are going so well! Under 200 sounds great!! Keep us posted on Kole. We're all pulling for him! adopt4, sorry you are having a cranky day. I am kinda feeling that way today, too. It seems like my weight loss has really slowed down. As much as I go blathering on about how this is a new…

chanty, we will have to call you chanty beer instead of chanty bear! :wink: Hey, I had your cauliflower rice again. Mmmmmm! This time, I tossed in some snap peas, carrots celery and onion with a few shrimp. Spice wise, I added ginger powder, garlic powder, and a little bit of cyenne pepper. Put iit over a bed of miracle…
