Wow this really hit home. I have recently purchased a scale, but I kind of just assumed that a slice of bread was a slice of bread and would just scan the barcode for easy logging.

lunges. I can't quite get my back leg down very far

Tough love!!! I love it.....and need it sometimes

I can totally relate to this. I lost 60 pounds in 4 years, went through a divorce and lost some more. Then met a wonderful man who enjoys food as much as I do and I gained it back and then some. We were eating out a lot, and the sweet tooth I had lost, I found again...we were eating a lot of sweets which isn't good for him…

So far, I've only been asked that question once. That was after I tripped over my boyfriend's head while doing buttkickers across the gym. I was in my zone and didn't realize he was doing inch worms. I flipped over and landed on my back. I just laid there and laughed while he had this WTF look on his face.

Flying to California for Thanksgiving. I don't want to be kicked off the plane for being too fat. :#

I could use some new buddies

Was feeling tired and kind of moody today also. I went and did 9Round this morning and after beating up the bags and letting the trainer beat me up a little bit, I feel much better!

I'm not crying YOU'RE crying. ok i'm crying.....

I could use more friends . I am a daily logger and my food diary is open to friends.

I am happy to hear that all is ok with your mom. Now that the scare is over, concentrate on you. You have some good advice above. I understand about how scary it is to keep seeing the numbers go up. I recently gained 18 pounds in 2 months. I was eating everything in sight and was very lax in my logging. I was out of…

Oh no! I think she deleted her profile. If you come back, feel free to add me. I'll be your cheerleader!

Mine does - we're going through this journey together. I've got the best cheerleader in the world and even when the scale goes up, he's very supportive and helps me work that much harder. I know that he loves me no matter what the number, but know the healthier we are the longer we can love on each other.

Me too :smiley:

You beat me to this. I was just going to post the very same thing. I broke my ankle and am in a walking boot. I have found some videos on you tube, but was just hoping for some more ideas. Hope you heal quickly!!!

Moved from California to Missouri. I would kill to have an In-N-Out Burger. We have 5 Guys, but it's not the same. *sigh*

definately have to check out later!!!

wow that's some good information :)

Great information to know!!!

The Hot Yoga one cracked me up!!!

Johnny Depp. I have had dreams about him for years.

Hello everyone!!! I need to lose 162 pounds, so far have lost 19. Would love to have more friends in a similar boat as me! I love to Zumba :)

My thought is that at least you're trying to talk about it, and not doing it. Do you have a good friend or anyone you can talk to? My daughter used to cut, and it was a very hard time for us. But she has pushed through it and it hasn't happened for over a year. Please talk to someone. Things will get better, I promise you.

I've lost 19 pounds doing MFP and Zumba only. Walking bores me. I use Zumba 2 on the Wii.

bumping part 2...so much good information on here!

there is a lot to read here!

When I was 16, I went to Planned Parenthood for birth control pills. The "doctor" while giving me an exam said she didn't understand why any boy would want to have sex with me, because I was obese.

have to try this!!!

I have between 100-150 pounds to lose. Sometimes I get overwhelmed, because let's face it, that's a whole person. But so far I have lost 9 pounds and am feeling a lot better. What keeps me going is all of the energy I have due to Zumba :) I do Just Dance 3 or Zumba Fitness 2 on the Wii. Everyday. Feel free to add me too!

Ooooo I want to print this out and put it on my bathroom mirror!
