I had a OMG moment last week when I gained back 3 pounds.... My monthly though this month was all screwed up. Did you weigh yourself the same time of day as usual..I usually weigh in the morning but by night time it's changed. Could be hormones & water. You'll get back on track - avoid those late night heavy dinners. : )…

Been there..DONT THAT.....Your husband is gone & your kids are in bed...Go do something else just for you....Go take a hot bubble bath or something else for you....Get out of the kitchen & standing there looking at the cabinet or refridgerator.....I've done that many many times. If you do it - you will feel aweful later &…

I was the biggest soda drinker. What finally got me to this website is I saw a picture of myself my husband took of me walking away. I saw that picture & cried all night..

:smile: I wear mine all day cause it is a watch too & I dont have one. Its pink & made for females. I do understand what your saying...I dont have a gym membership, I work out at home. By what it's reading now...instead of burning 200 -300 calories on the treadmill, it reads as a extra 100 with everyone else for the day…
