  • My kid sometimes needs his Happy Meal fix so we occasionally go to Mcdonald’s. I usually get the Grilled Chicken and Ranch Snack Wrap or the Premium Grilled Chicken and Ranch Wrap (if I can be allowed more calories) At Chick-fi-Lay it’s the Cool Chicken Wrap which I normally only eat half of and save the rest for another…
  • Yes, I am to! I am trying to lose the last 20 or 30. I’m at a total of 60 lost since May. The holidays aren’t helping either!
  • Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom at the Pirates of the Caribbean premiere at Disneyland, Anaheim, CA. There were also MANY other stars that walked the red carpet that night such as Kobe Bryant, Geoffrey Rush, Bill Nighy, Holly Lauren and Teri Hatcher, just to name a few. Pretty much the whole cast of the Pirates of the…
  • I don't log gum. I do log coffee and the creamer I put in it. I didn't log those 5 bites of chocolate cake I had yesterday, to. I paid for it with a bad tummy ache :(
  • Carbs are the devil! LOL I’m kidding of course. Each person’s body is different and in some, as myself, carbs do not bode well. I cut out bad carbs (I still eat fruit but stay away from breads, pasta and rice) since this past May and I’m down 55lbs. However, I also cut out fast food and greatly limited portion size and…
  • Phentermine was the best thing that happened to me. However, I also changed my LIFESTYLE AND EATING HABITS. No longer do I eat portions enough to feed a small army nor do I abuse fast food and sweets. I also exercise regularly now since I’m actually able to move freely with less fat on me. Would I remain on Phentermine my…
  • I actually prefer the treadmill over power walking outside. Mostly because I get to watch TV in my apartment community's work out room :) I started on the treadmill 4-5 times a week back in June. I started walking, semi-fast paced, then upped the level to about 2.0..then 3.0 ....and so on. I'm currently power walking on…
  • Booyah! Great job! I've had to buy new pants multiple times since I've started this. I had size 10 jeans on the top of my closet as inspiration, finally got into them and had to wear a belt to keep my size 12's from falling! I used to be a size 18! Good job!
  • I’ve been divorced for 9 1/2 years now. Single and raising a child on my own for the past 9 ½ years since his father, my ex-husband, decided he wanted nothing to do with his son. I dated twice since my divorce and both turned out to be lying jerks, as was my ex-husband. I lack trust in men completely and especially since I…
  • I started a new job. I had been there for about 9 months when I realized that after walking up the small 10 steps or so to get to my office, I was huffing and puffing like I had ran a marathon. I couldn’t breathe and needed a minute to catch my breath. It was when my co-worker almost had 911 on the phone because he thought…
  • You have taken the first positive step! I’m 5’4 and I started at 245 lbs. As of today, I’m 53 lbs down. Each person’s body is different and will react different to different changes. For me, personally, I cut back on carbs, bad carbs like like bread, pasta and rice. I still have fruits. I then started exercising. For my…
  • Your goal loss is around where mine is. I'm at 43 lost so far. Good job!
  • I do blog. I have found blogging, even before I started losing weight, to be very great therapy. I have a blog here on MFP but I also keep a personal blog which includes my weight loss journey as well. It's been great because it keeps me accountable. I weigh in every Friday.
  • I would have to agree with this^^^^^^ This sounds like my sister. Lately, she's been doing those "crash" type diets where for 3 days you eat like 800 calories or something like that by living off tuna and 5 saltine crackers. I can't think of the name but I think she called it the military diet? I might be wrong. Anyway,…
  • Public diary to!
  • He was Brandon in the Tudors.
  • Human Priest, made in October of 2007. Later changed to a Blood Elf (followed a guild to Horde side). I still have her and she is my main. I fell in love with healing (yes, I'm not lying). I prefer to heal over anything else. I am out of practice though and was better in her younger years. I have many alts to but my main…
  • Greetings! I'm glad to have found a group like this here! I"m 36 and I've been slowly and steadily losing weight for the past 3 months (weigh in day is wednesday). But I've been a gamer since I was a kid. At one point I played World of Warcraft on a daily basis but my guild fell apart and the guild leader fell apart…
  • Good job! I also lost alot in my face first, more than anything. Keep it up!
  • The fact that to walk from my car, up 10 steps, then down the hall to my office, I don't feel winded, out of breath and like my heart is going to explode. And I think it's funny that everyone is choosing sex. I probably would choose that to, if I actually was having it. Haven't been married or in a relationship since my…
  • I would have to say yes it helps a lot! I have a blog, one here at MFP but also a personal and diet blog (link is in my profile), and posting in my personal blog every week for my weigh in has not only held me accountable but has encouraged me as I've see the success. I did start a blog on this site but I mostly write in…
  • LOL me too. The last pair of jeans slipped right off me and I wasn't prepared. Luckily, I was in the privacy of my own home and I was running around, cleaning and stuff when I realized...uh...why are my pants half way off my butt! I giggled, then put those jeans into the Goodwill give away box and grabbed the size 14's I…
  • I'm also one to only pay Goodwill prices for jeans I know I won't be in for long. I just recently went down from a size 16 New York & Company dress pants to a size 14 which I had, waiting at the top of my closet. I went to Goodwill and got two pairs of jeans one a size 12 and one a size 14. The size 16's i have now are…
  • My co-worker just yesterday told me that my face is so thin. I seemed to have lost my double chin more over anything. That is it for me so far. Or that is all anyone has said to me. I'm sure people are thinking it.
  • Southern California, Inland Empire and it's muggy here today. There were thunderstorms...blegh. I want out of here so bad. I dislike pretty much everything about California and I was born and raised in Pasadena.
  • More hilarity! I always do pigtails or braids. I have super long hair and in this S. California heat...long hair down the back, is enough to make me chop it off, which I do not want to do. I also take it up a notch and sport the "Princess Leia" type buns, but definitely not as big and more towards the back of my head, not…
  • It was actually the HEART of a horse. And I only watch The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, True Blood and Downton Abbey when it decides to come back. :happy:
  • Ha! This is hilarious! Not something I've seen on a message board before. I wear dark rimmed glasses and have for many many years now. I can't wear contacts anymore as they itch my eyes and I'm not doing the surgery anytime soon because I don't have that kind of money. And if I'm not wearing my glasses....I can't even…
  • Benedict Cumberbatch and I have NO idea how to add a photo to a post...but he's it for me right now.
