I actually just went through the same thing you are going through last week. I weighed myself and I was up 4.5 lbs but when I weighed myself agian this week I was right back down to what I was before!!! It will go away!

How do you find out your BMR? Do you have to have a HR monitor or something?

Thanks for all the great ideas!

I completed this in Sept. and it seems hard but the more you do it the more you can't wait to run again even though every time it kicks your butt! I can't wait until it gets nice again here in Ohio so I can get out and run. DO THE PROGRAM! IT IS SOOOO WORTH IT!

Heyycassie, I totally agree and am right there with ya! :)

DUDE! What do you do to burn that many calories in one day AND...is that a normal day for you??? That's awesome but crazy to me because i only burn 500 something at best and am proud of that! lol

I would like to join!

II was thinking the same thing about the caps...who cares if she uses caps! lol

awe..sorry I was no help. I am glad that your depression is in check. Hopefully, the doctor can figure something out to help you.

Hi, I have used Cymbalta but I wasn't on it long because it didn't seem to work for me. One thing I notice when I am really depressed is that I CRAVE carbs like nobody's business. Is the medication actually helping your depression because if it isn't and you are craving carbs maybe you are eating with in your calories but…

I just want to say that I believe you have every right to be upset. You packed his dinner and gave specific instructions. If she wanted to give a little ice cream she should have asked you in advance. Maybe she didn't think she was doing anything wrong and wanted to give him a special treat while he was visiting. I know…

YOU LOOK AMAZING!!! You are a true inspiration! Good for you girl!

I don't know if they still have it but a long time ago they had like a banana cream pie one ..oh my gosh it was amazing...lol

Hello, My name is Lori and I am a food addict. I am married and have 7 parrots and I cat. I love food and it loves me back by adding on a bigger, butt ,belly and thighs! lol I lean on food for comfort when I am bored or sad or I just plain over-eat at meals. I am glad to know I am not alone while at the same time wish you…

I always thought when you were bloated it was good to drink lots of water because it helps reduce the bloating

Well when I was at my heaviest weight my family doctor said i should try to loose weight first. When I was in to see my obgyn in april she just told me to work on being healthy and exercising before then having the baby and she said everything would probably be ok. So I am still worried but we were going to try to start…

Like you said I think it helps reduce the chances of snacking or eating things your don't want to because you aren't starving!

ok found the site by googling but what i want to know is how you track the time?? Do yu get a stopwatch?

I tried looking up that coolrunnings web site and it comes of 4domains or something. Also, I am interested but how do you even start and what do you do to work your way up???? Does the site explain it all?

Awesome thanks everyone ! I will have to try these ideas.

I have a degree in early childhood education and a minor in child development. I have worked in a daycare and school setting so I have some experience. I was wondering if you have discussed this with her pre-school teachers and maybe even the director? I wonder if something is going on at school that is making her feel…

thanks!

thanks!!! :) I do exercise but I still end up eating to much...i gotta kick my butt back into gear!

i had braces/etc almost my whole childhood! The only thing i did was avoid really chewy candy, candy apples, corn on the cob (but i just took a knife and cut all the corn off the cob and ate it fresh anyway). The most important thing as mentioned above is CLEANING!!!! Don't worry so much you can each most things just be…

I thought it was normal to eat vinegar on fries here too...i do it and live in ohio!
