WOW pandora721 anf gramarye!

I don't take a bus, I drive. Sometimes it takes more than an hour each way. When I first lost 50lbs I would walk Target on my lunch. Since then my company has moved and there really is no where to walk except the parking garage.

Trying to exercise is difficult due to my schedule. I sit at a desk all day so no movement, plus an hour commute each way Monday thru Friday. In my subdivision we have been having issues with black bears roaming in the evening so walking/running outside scares the crap out of me. I have to wait until my son is a sleep…

baseball hat reality shows or fantasy?

Me too! I confess...I am addicted to chocolate

I can be an inspiration to someone starting out just like the many who have lost before me and inspire me.

Absolutely I would

Damn! You look great. You are an inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing. It is people like you who drive me forward knowing it can happen for anyone who outs their mind to it. Thank you.

All I can say is WOW!!! You are doing an amazing job.

That is awesome. You look great. I am looking forward to being in your shoes within the year.

WOW! You look wonderful!

Honestly, none of those prices apply to where I live. Chicken alone is $4.99lb, and the best I have found it is $1.79lb. Fruits and veggi's are through the roof here too. I would love to say buying crap is more expensive than good food, but not where I live. I do the best I can and buy little to no crap if possible. I…

The Dr. was wrong in saying it was the policy of the hospital if it was not. As for the other stuff, it sounds like the doctor was just trying to get her to go where it would be best for the delivery. If he didn't say/do anything and something went wrong he would be questioned also "Why didn't you tell me there was some…

Honestly I would try lowering how much sodium intake you have. I would also make sure you eat if not all at least some of your exercise calories back.

Thanks everyone!

Wow...not such a nice tone in your reply. No they don't shove food in your mouth, but the feeling of hunger can be overwhelming.

I did lose close to 50lbs back in 2009 while on Lamictal, but it does seem more difficult. Some people will think I am making excuses. I am just trying to figure out if it is the meds, then I need understand that it may be harder for me. Thanks everyone!

I 100% agree. Seeing the third number move is nice, but the second and first really give you a boost. :)

You look awesome! Congrats on the weight loss.

serapi, have you ever been extremely over weight/obese? From your post it makes me feel as though you have never been. I will admit I have made excuses, but in the end it is my problem. It takes a lot more then "Eat less, eat better, get active!". Some people don't have a lot of time in their lives outside of work, health…

Well, at least they are not real cookies you can pull off the wall and eat. They are only lickable. Which is kinda crazy in a publix elevator. Who knows who licked it before you. :)

During the week and occasionally on the weekends I will have a cup. On rare occasions I will have 2 cups. I put flavored creamer in it, regular not sugar free, but I do not put sugar in it at all. It is one of those things I like to have with creamer and I refuse to give it up.

You have done a great job. You look wonderful! :flowerforyou: Keep up the good work. You may not realize it, but just the fact you lost 70lbs is a amazing feat. At this point you are an inspiration to others. I don't have as much to lose as you do, but you certainly make me feel as though it is possible. Thank you for…

I don't have any before or after pictures because I just got back on the band wagon. I must say before I got pregnant with kid #2 MFP helped me go from 240lbs (109kg) to 194lbs (89kgs). It was not easy, but I was feeling great. I gained it all back when I got pregnant with #2. I am now down to 213lbs (97kgs). The point…

Great job! Keep it up. The more you lose, the better you will feel.

To tell you the complete truth, I was just in your situation. I just could not keep my head in the game. I went back to the way I used to lose weight. I concentrate on food. Make sure I eat what I need and still eat what I want to a certain degree. I have been logging in everything except dinner. At one point this could be…
