where do you put it on your body?

That is cute:) I can see watching the miles and trying to make it to the next big number. I just might have to save up for one.

Two c-sections and hysterectomy so pretty much same situation. I think if I get down to 130, I'm looking into surgery "a gift" for meeting the goal. I wish KatePlus8's doctor would give all of us free surgery too! She was pretty bad after haveing the 6 babies. I know, wishful thinking.:laugh:

I pretty much hate doing all excercise but I found I have to find the pain in order to get where I want to be. I take classes at a yoga studio. They offer yoga, pilates, cycling, hot yoga, etc. I found that signing up for a class makes you commit, "without a buddy" however once you get there you have all kinds of buddies…

Great, I love the Kashi products, these are probably good also. I will get some and give them a try. Thank you!

I am always over on sugar. I had a small apple and a pear one day and I couldn't believe how much over I was on sugar. I posted this question and only one person replied and said not to worry unless I was diabetic. I don't know, it just bothered me because I was trying to stay within the daily limits and sugar has got me…

I agree with adding more protien. I began eating "slider foods". Anything that slid right through was great. Many of those items are really bad, ice cream, cookies, pudding, yogurt, soup, basically anything soft. Now I make sure my protien is a shake or meat. I tried Quinoa and it was horrible but seems like it would be a…

Hello All, I had my lap band about 4 years ago. I lost 51 lb's my first year and since then managed to gain 15 back. My last fill was about two years ago and have not been back since. I was at max 4cc. I would imagine that some fluid could be lost or evaporate but as far as I know I'm still at max capacity. I have been…

You need to go to a class with a great instructor. Guess what, most of us suck at it but as long as your burning calories and trying your best, who cares. It's pretty fun if you have a good group.

I usually eat about 1200. If I don't exercise, sometimes I go less but then MFP tells me I'm in starvation mode if I eat less than 1200. If I exercise hard sometimes I will go up to 1500 a day. Not loosing anything though. Pretty depressing.

Not to be negative, this is just an observation that I have noticed as I have been logging my daily food. I am over on suger everyday. I can't believe how much sugar is in a pear, an apple, etc. I know that these are natural sugars but it still alarms me because I hate to go over on anything except excersize! Good luck,…

If your concerned with carbs watch the slim fast drinks (prepared). I used to grab one every morning for breakfast and had blood work done. My triglycorides were really high. I asked what caused and was told high carbs. That's when I started checking everything with carbs. This was only one thing that was contributing but…
