I recently had an injury and got through most of the time doing chair (or wheelchair) aerobics. You can buy dvds for them, but I just used the ones on youtube, not much there but I would line several of them up on different tabs and do one right after another until I got a good workout. There is also some chair aerobics…

I def would and do, although tonight I left the mace at home and brought a stun gun. It is not worth the risk a woman alone at night is like bait for some of the freaks out there.

SELF CONTROL-why is it so hard? You are human. Don't be so hard on yourself, no one is perfect all the time on anything. You are making progress and improving keep it up and pretty soon it will only be a once in a blue moon thing. Kudos to you, but don't beat yourself up :)

I don' t think you can do anything other than what you are already. Showing him by example and encouraging is good, but it is his life, and his body. I am sure he knows he is killing himself, hence skipping doctor's appointments, but he is not ready and may not ever be ready to deal with that or with whatever underlying…

I think it is simple, we have easy access to food and do not have to expend any energy to get it. For example, within the last century if you wanted to have butter you had to raise and feed the cow daily, milk the cow twice daily, strain the milk, pour in a container, when the cream rises to the top skim it off, strain the…

Congrats Shamrockit and Ladytinkerbell99!!!! Great job being the biggest losers, throw up a good challenge, we are ready for it :)

I like all kinds, but one of my favorites is the You On A Diet Greek Salad 2 servings Dressing Ingredients: 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1 clove garlic, minced 1/2 teaspoon honey Salt and freshly ground black pepper (optional) Salad Ingredients: 1…

I like them all kinds of ways, hard boiled, over medium, scrambled with veggies, egg salad, just about any kind of omelet, egg burritos, deviled eggs, oh I am wanting eggs now, gonna go boil some :)

I think what works is an apology and doing everything in your power to make it right, otherwise an apology is just words. Then the rest is up to your friend...

My ex tried to force himself on me, I had to fight him off and then he was whining, "I just want you to know how much I love you", I'm sorry rape and love don't exist in the same reality in my book!

great job! You look fabulous! Your arms are about half the size they used to be and don't even look flabby! Well done!

great job reaching your goal!

I think it depends on your definition. I think any extreme is not considered sexy by most people, for example extremely fat, extremely skinny, extremely muscly, extremely flabby. Anything in between your going to find plenty of attention :)

Great job working out at home dnunny! I had a busy weekend. One of the things I did was go to a raw, vegan, gluten free, dairy free restaurant with my friend who is vegan. We shared a lasagna and a pizza (neither of them looked or tasted like what they were called). The food was ok in flavor, we also split a peach cobber…

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If I did not allow for the normal foods in my diet, yes, even junk food, I would last about a week or less. My husband, friends, relatives, children and I can all eat the same stuff, I am not excluded or feeling deprived. I just track it and eat in moderation, it does make me…

That is awesome! I think the nsv are the biggest ones, your husband noticing your face slimming down and being able to walk further is way better than what a scale says :)

I say go prepared with an idea of what you want to eat and look up all the information and eat slim the rest of the day, workout to be able to account for extra calories if you need them and plan plan plan to keep it within your calorie goal. You definitely will end up kicking yourself in the tail if you gain weight by not…

wow wow wow! You look much smaller! Great job!

Amazing transformation!

Thank you, I am amazed at how my skin and hair have changed, it is awesome! Unknown benefit :happy: :)

Thank you everyone one, you made my week :) I definitely plan on posting more when I am down another 40 and then of course again at goal :)

Thank you for all of the encouragement :)

Man, now I am craving healthy thin people. :tongue:

Great job! You look fabulous!

You guys should be very proud of yourselves! You look fantastic! :)

dnunny I pulled something in my leg toward the end of May, still working on healing, but at least I can walk unaided now :) uh oh klondike bars, did you fit them in your calorie goal or go over? I don't deprive myself of foods I like as long as I fit them in my goal. It works for me, then I never feel deprived of anything…
