I have mild rosacea, so my face gets red as my body temperature goes up. Every time I work out I have lobster face.

i calculated my BMR a few days ago, and out of curiosity switched it to male. A guy my size would burn 200 more calories a day than a female. Mind boggling... also leaves an opening for jokes about why?

sounds like you guys are doing awesome!

i gave up caffeine in january... made for a rough week or 2. you'll get past it and forget about it after awhile.

you will get there in no time, and then you will cross over to the healthy range. get ready to start buying smaller clothes!!

eat more. if you're hungry, you're hungry. just try to make healthy choices. i've also been told to eat slower (count to ten in between bites) so yu brain can catch up to your stomach and let you know when you are full for real.

i just wanna play with my kids without getting winded

trying out doesn't mean you would have to go if you got chosen. Just the tryouts would be a good workout and you can say you did it. Then you go home and do the biggest loser dvd workouts like me :)

I just try to eat smaller portions. those burritos are big enough to cut in half and save some for later. Good luck with your weight loss!

i'm with you on not being afraid of a bathing suit!!

awesome!!!!! the last one is the best!

I used to get b-12 shots every month, I didn't think it was making a difference at the time, but when I stopped getting them I felt more tired. They do have b-12 pills, you can get them anywhere like Walgreens or Walmart.

I would talk to my doctor first, just to find out what they recommend. Also don't lose the weight to quickly, it can release toxins into your breast milk that makes for a sick baby (happened to a friend of mine who decided to crash diet while breastfeeding)

Usually casual acquaintances tend to discuss my ups and downs with my weight more than I prefer. However a stranger did come up to a friend of mine while she was upset, assumed it was about her weight, and recommended gastric bypass surgery! Some people just need to mind their own business, if my weight is open for public…

I was freaked out when I realized special k red berries was more calories than captain crunch

I would log by ingredients, but it just takes longer! Usually thee's something the same or close enough in the database I'll use it instead. I'm not going to let 5-10 cal on my log deter me, it's about keeping me close to my goal not exactly at it.

I was taking one a days, but they make me queasy. I pop flintstones chewables with the kids now...

Stories like that make me scared to eat out anywhere, not just mcdonalds. At least I know if I cooked it, it wasn't sneezed in!

watermelon cream slush: 435 calories. i will miss you!

It has been used as a joke unfortunately. In high school, everyone teased a girl there named Leilani saying "Everyone's had a chance to lay lani" or "her parents even advertised in her name that she will put out"

if you're youngest can still fit safely in a stroller (my 2yr old can't, too dang tall) you can always bring him along for walking/jogging. some gyms also offer childcare, but not many. best of luck!

This Taylor scale from target can go up to 450lbs. For $30 it doesn't look bad.…

Not a fan of IHOP.... LONG LIVE WAFFLE HOUSE!!!

I used to leave notes to myself on the fridge... kinda like a police negotiater talking me down :)

Just jealousy... he'll get over it

Welcome to the site! Keeping up with the kids is one of the best motivators!
