Happy Birhtday!! Don't feel bad, I did much the same when it was mine. As others have said, dust yourself off and move on. Unless you ate 52,500 calories you haven't ruined what you have already lost. At worst you've just slightly delayed your goal a little.

Don't look at a lapse as throwing you off your diet. If you really see it that way maybe you're being too restrictive?? I press on. There is always tomorrow. Take a walk/jog if you want to get rid of the cals.

Nope. That'd be neat though, lose weight, find love all at the same place and time. Wait...I can hear the "this is a weight loss site not a dating site" crowd coming already

Don't sweat it, it took me three weeks of slowly reducing my intake to get a real start here. I was averaging around 3,000 a day during the week not counting weekends. Ease into it. Just track what you normally eat to begin with so you know where you are, then start reducing it day by day. Sudden changes don't usually…

Hope so

I really don't watch much of anything except my calories. Personaly, I'd go nuts if I tried to keep EVERYTHING under like sodium, too radical for me. If my calories are under, my carbs usually are so I'm happy. It just depends on what works best for you. Watching only my cals is enough for me and it's having the desired…

43 here

My living room, about a month or so ago

This!!:happy: Although if you get a laughing fit, I wonder if it counts towards cardio.

Never share primary bank accounts exclusively. My ex and I had separate accounts (not the reason for the split) and then a third we called the house account. It worked just fine. We each had our own money to spend, each contributed to the house account for major purchases, rent, utilities insurance and such. Cut down on a…

4-5. There's only me. Usually Sun-Thurs are at home meals, while Fri and Sat are take out.

Must be the change in season.....:tongue:

Mine

The list is nealy endless:bigsmile: Choclates Cruchies = Chips, triscuits, wheat thins etc etc Cupcakes Chinese Pizza Italian

I used to eat nearly an entire Pizza Hut Medium Supreme with pan crust in one sitting. Now at least I I've shaved it down to a hot-N-Ready pepperoni. I have it if I want it, but if I want it I hit the gym beforehand to make room.

It's universal throughout the sexes. I'm 43

Were addicted???? I still am! I still eat the same stuff as before, but have eased off a bit on some things. I still have all the junk food but only on the weekend. I still have nightly junk snacks, thoughI try very hard to stick to serving sizes that are within my calorie limit.

My mind:tongue: From your list though...I keep bouncing between the air conditioner and the bale of hay.

Myth I hope....I :heart: anything carbonated

I am Standing, can't ya tell? (jumps up and down, waving arms)

43 here (sadly....where did it go??) You can add me if you wish,

I've lost 55 pounds so far just watching what I eat (portion size, cals etc) I exercise to eat more of what I like. I have cut down voluntarily on some things but I haven't really changed my diet all that much. I still have steak, hamburgers, pizza, sweets etc etc. It can be done without these "diets" Besides, you can't…

Furry Squishy Shiny (Getting shiny on top)

Heard about something like this a while ago. Something about her wedding???? I'll tell ya it works like a charm and is expensive as hell!! How do I know?? My Mom was on it last year..not as a stupid crash diet...she had Cancer....it's not a fun thing to do. It's for people who can't eat whatsover, not some idiot wench who…

Not a fan of Tramp Stamps (unless the rest of you is a tapestry as well) but as long as there isn't anything too much larger or farther down below your your visible beltline then I really wouldn't consider this a Tramp Stamp, I'd see it more or less regular art. Yours is tasteful, and the appropriate size for your body. It…

A persecuted minority of selfish scum...... It's all relative. Let me begin by saying I smoked for nearly 20 years (started when I was 11) and watched the slow and steady progression of anti-smoking legislation and bias from its beginning. Anti-smoking hype has gone way overboard. What started out as a campaign to raise…

:huh: :bigsmile: :laugh::laugh: :laugh:

I vote for......Crap, can't do it. There are just WAY TOO MANY hot people and WAY TOO many reasons why they are considered "hot" on here to choose just one. There are a bunch on my perosnal FL alone... Shields up! Prepare to repell boarders!! (Now of course if anyone thinks I'm hot, feel free to PM me:bigsmile:

Olive Garden - Salad with italian Dressing...I can have another whole serving of seafood Alfredo if I skip the Salad!!!

I'm a little over half way there, a little over 50 pounds, 30 more to go.
