I like extreme weight loss but not biggest loser. I don't see how berating people and making them exercise several hours a day is going to get them to have any self confidence or maintain that weight loss after the show is over. At least with extreme weight loss its done over a year and they are taught to maintain and…

I admire anyone who can run. GOOD FOR YOU!!! That is awesome!! I can't even run around the block and I"m not even over weight anymore. Just never could run.

Water has Zero calories, hydrates you, keeps you feeling fuller long which in turn keeps you from over eating or eating when you're not really hungry but in fact just thirsty. All of this does help you lose weight. Diet sodas do not hydrate you. They do not make you feel full. They actually make you feel hungry and make…

I didn't have a weight problem till a couple years ago. But when I was much younger at times I was actually under weight. My dad on the other hand was obese. He was told by his doctors that he was pre diabetic. Every time I went into the fridge to get something to eat he would yell at me... "you eating again?" or "every…

my son also suffered a TBI and takes neurontin for his migraines. He has to constantly take them. Its not something you can only take when you have the migraines but it helps him. My daughter and I both have chronic migraines not caused by an injury and have only had relief with Excedrin migraine. My daughters are much…

my daughter was just dxed with hypothyroid. She was able to lose 10 pounds in one month without meds. She has to wait till she sees her endocrinologist before she can start on meds for it but even without meds she was able to lose weight. She eats clean, counts calories and exercises every day. She walks a lot more now…

Have you considered seeing a therapist? There are therapists that specialize in food addiction.

sure its realistic...in the beginning. The closer you get to your ideal weight the slower it will go. I lost 4 lbs first week. Then 3 a week for a couple of weeks then 2 a week for a couple of months. Now i'm down to my goal weight and still lost a little more. The last couple of months I lost maybe .5 a week. But looking…

as a former hairdresser who worked in a spa I can say I've seen young children come in and freak out over getting their hair cut. We would simply explain to the parents that maybe they should try again another time. We always did a test run with small children especially if it was their first hair cut. We also never…

yes high BP and high Cholesterol can be due to genetics. Some people no matter how they eat or what they weigh will still have high BP and high Cholesterol. Fortunately I am still able to get my numbers down with proper diet, exercise and keeping my weight in the normal range.

WTG!! At my last physical my doctor was thrilled. Loved the look on his face when he saw me. All of my blood work was normal, my BP was normal and no more heartburn. He took me off of my BP meds completely saying I didn't need them anymore. Lost another 40 lbs since so can't wait to see the look on his face at my next…

I know of 3 people who had this done. Only one has stuck with healthy eating and exercise and has not only lost all of the weight she needed to lose but has kept it off for over a year now. The other 2 regained all of the weight they lost and then some. Its supposed to be used as a tool in conjunction with eating healthy…

you can all add me if you like. I'm doing this for life to keep my health in check. I have no intentions of stopping even though I've reached my goal weight.

You sound like our oldest. He would take off and hide under clothing wracks. I can't tell you how many times I had to search for that boy in the stores. It just got to where I would't take him anymore. I had to find a sitter just to go shopping. I didn't know about harnesses back then. Wish I did I would have gotten one.…

People use playpens all the time to keep their kids safe in the home so yes you can say thats a form of cage. I wish I had a leash for our oldest. He would bolt into the street by ripping his hand away from mine and just take off like a shot. Once when I was pregnant with our 2nd child the oldest was 3 he ripped away from…

Sometimes they just lock them and other times they completely delete the thread. Depends on what was posted.

I love flounder. I like to put fresh squeezed lemon juice on mine and some fresh pepper. Also try to bake it in the oven with fresh rosemary. If I"m out of fresh lemons I'll just sprinkle on some lemon pepper seasoning before I put it in the oven.

My husband and I never liked fast food of any kind and we don't buy it for our kids. As teenagers with their own money now and a BK and McD within walking distance they don't go there to eat. When their friends ask them if they want to go there to get something to eat our kids all say similar things.. No thanks. Don't like…

I started with MFP and didn't lose any weight for the first 3 months then joined WW online and boom!! Lost 4 lbs the first week then 3 the next then 2 every week after that for about 3 months then down to 1 to 1.5 a week. I still tracked on MFP as well as WW to see what the difference was. I realized that once I joined WW…

Took me 5 months to lose the first 50 pounds and then things slowed down. Took off a total of 80 so far. Only consistent exercise I did was 2 walks daily. Now I use weights, walk and ride my bike.

My husband is hypoglycemic and has to stay as low to no carb as possible. His blood sugar takes a nose dive if he has any carbs and he will seizure. For him I take the large outer leaves of Romaine lettuce and fill it with grilled chicken breast or steak cut really thin and add other veggies, walnuts and cheese. He can't…

Do you weigh and measure everything you eat or are you just eye balling it? Chances are your eating way more than you are actually logging. Also besides watching the scale take your measurements. Just when I think I'm not making any progress I'll see that I've lost inches.

I married him thats how I handled it :laugh:
