Congratulations sweetie... Keep up the great work and when you least expect it you'll hit your target weight :bigsmile:. I understand your excitment I finally hit the 150's too :drinker: it feels awesome doesn't it? Congratulations!!!! :heart:

I find it funny how everyone is quoting you so I thought I would do the same just to give you my opinion. I think in a marriage we do need to support each other but I also believe it would have been different if she would have been the one to say I don't want to dress shop UNTIL I lose some weight. Then I could understand…

This is just my opinion but I think your bf was wrong to tell you to not start dress shopping until you lost some weight. That's what I find wrong here. I think it's good for him to support you in your weightloss journey and tell you to put the ice cream away IF that's what you want. I honestly think he was wrong to have…

Whenever I get hungry I mean really hungry late at night I'll have a kiwi or two but I usually try to not think about eating at that time and just go to sleep or watch a movie to distract my mind from it because in my case it usually isn't hunger it's just the need to eat you know the need to have something in my…

So am I... I can't go a day without weighing myself and I have to weigh myself several times, I can get on the scale 10x to get the most accurate weight....is that crazy? I'll do it with my pj's on in the morning several times and then I'll do it with my pj bottoms and socks off LOL!

Can I still join in? I've been working on an x-mas challenge since September and I can sure use the support. I would like to lose 28.5 lbs. HW: 232 lbs. CW: 167.5 lbs. GW: 139 lbs.

JStar513, My husband and I were talking about that this weekend, we were saying that the hardest part is getting of your butt :laugh:, but once you're doing it you feel awesome and don't wanna stop. I completly understand the missing one day and ends up being like two weeks LOL that happens to me that's why if I'm not in…

Sorry one last thing... Like they've mentioned think positive :heart: !!!!!

Don't worry honey you're not alone, I'm also losing weight to get pregnant...actually to be able to start a pregnancy treatment. I've been trying to lose this weight for a year now...well it will be a year in December when I was first told I wouldn't be able to get preggers without treatment because I have PCOS anyway my…

I agree I think the 100 calorie snacks are good other good ideas would be sugar free jello the pre packaged ones you can just open and eat, some yoplait yogurt college cafeterias usually always have these individual yogurts, apples, baby carrots, I used to buy snack size ziplocs and pre pack baby carrots for on the go,…

Just a suggestion... why don't you buy one of those work out videos this way you don't have to leave home and you can do them when the kids take a nap or something. There are so many vids out there such as salsa dancing, core work out, and my favorite tae bo, there are more but I can't remember anymore :embarassed: sorry…

Congratulations Jeannie! I understand what you mean the same thing happened to me after years and years of yo yo dieting I finally found the ''secret'' be conscious of what you eat by this... I mean make good and healthy choices and exercise at least 30 minutes 5 x a week. I think your doing an awesome job not only losing…

This is so funn to me :laugh: because I have the same problem but wth both scales. I am now using a traditional one and my weight can change anywhere form 5 to 8 KILOGRAMS thats a lot! :ohwell: Maybe we should go to the doctors office and weigh ourselves there, just let ourselves in and help ourselves to their scales for…

Sweetie, I found this on the cymbalta web page and I thought it might be useful. WARNING: this might be long as well as my previous post. I'm sorry, I just hope this helps you find what you're looking for. http://www.cymbalta.com/learnaboutcymbalta/importantsafetyinformation.jsp Cymbalta® (duloxetine HCl) is approved for…

I used to take cymbalta and I remember that the first couple of days it was so hard on my stomach, it took a while getting used too. It gave me a lot of stomach pain because the pill is a bit strong but after your body gets used to it, it does help. I'm not sure what type of info your looking for, so I'll post the info I…

Madam, lol Everyone has a right to their own opinion and what they believe to be true what I don't understand is why it isn't respected

Marla, Now I can't express what I believe, my opinion, what I think is true without having to think about if I am hurting someone's feelings? Didn't you write something about that? Everyone has a right to post anything they want, call it a rant about what a bad day they are having or how something is so annoying to them.…

I agree, I couldn't have said it better. I don't know why Dave is ranting about people ranting, I guess Dave has too much time on his hands almost 3,000 posts since Dec '08 makes you wonder. Dave maybe you shouldn't read them, ever thought of that? If they are such a waste of your time and you hate them so much then don't…

I really like it as well as brown rice, what I do is add lots of italian seasoning and I think it comes out awesome.

Why don't you try a fun workout like zumba or something dance related, you get to learn new steps and it's tons of fun or maybe kick boxing where you learn some great moves to defend yourself. I also look forward to cleaning my house everyday, I don't miss any details now, I don't cut any corners because I've learned it's…

Im glad you decided to start eating healthy, I know losing weight is hard work but like everyone said you are worth it, do it for yourself, for your children your family. Imagine all the things you will be able to do once you start losing weight. Make yourself proud by succeding! I know you can do it, I believe in you…

It feels awesome to reach goals, I always try to set goals for myself because that is the only way I can visualize getting there maybe it works for you too. You should set a new goal and let us know when you succed so we can share you happiness:bigsmile: . Way to go and keep up the good work :drinker:

That's awesome, you are so close to meet your final weight goal, way to go congratulations :bigsmile: !!!

That's awesome enjoy your victory and keep up the good work! :drinker:

Hi, I'm sorry to learn that you're upset but what type of exercise are you doing? Your are probably gaining muscle and thats why you are an inch bigger everywhere except you neck and havent been losing as much. Going below your calories can sometimes backfire and maybe you should only workout once a day, sometimes working…

I know exactly what your going through, I was diagnosed cyclothymic and was on cymbalta, topamax, neurontin. I would take about 5 to 6 pills a day and the first couple of weeks I lost weight and it was probably because the meds made me feel sick until my body got used to them. After those first couple of weeks I gained…

Maybe 7:00 would be a good time to have supper that way you don't go to sleep right away with a full stomach, I've heard its not good to eat and then go to sleep right away.

I used to take green tea pills a long time ago and I did notice a lot of benefits such as my skin, metabolism and omg did I have to pee every 5 minutes but I guess its good because thats how you get all of the toxins out. I know drink green tea, I just boil some water and add the green tea bag, i love the taste of natural…

I'm sorry your doctor made you cry :heart: , but I am with all of those who disagree with her opinion. I don't see any problem with walking 5 or 6 x a week, it is true at the begining because of the drastic lifestyle change you made it is normal to lose weight very fast. As long as you don't feel sick or bad then I would…
