  • I have about 100 to lose and I need someone to harp on me to keep on track. I tend to do really well and then start falling off at about the 3 months mark
  • I get you (we have the same sense of humor) lol. I have a girl like that and we are actually friends but I "HATE" that she has got the 'perfect' body and can run like a gazelle! Plus, she has TWO kids! NOT FAIR!!! Anyways You are great babes don't let the real haters get to you!
  • Welcome! I'm a SAHM of two boys 5 and 15mo. I also have an angel baby which I had calcification (otherwise known as a stone baby) I know your pain and I commend you for working through it! Good luck on your journey and feel free to add me.

  • I feel you I was scared when I first upped my calories and the first few weeks I gained and plateaued but after 2 1/2 weeks I started dropping again and have lost 3lbs per week consistently since. It seems scary but it really is best. However, if you are close to goal it may take longer. Good luck!
  • I have a 1yo and a 5yo if I can't get to the gym (usually the hubby takes them but sometimes it is impossible) I get them into my workout. We play 'exercise' and I put a dvd in and the kiddos work out with me. Also, I make all my errands a little more energetic. So when going to the grocery store we 'run' from the farthest…
  • I've got HUGE hips and major junk! However, my waist is 10' smaller than my hips! (yeah I'm a hourglass) I find that Maurice's has good jeans. They have 'hiphuggers' but they work great because they are longer in the stomach area and back area so that they don't get that weird flap thing going on. Plus they usually are on…
  • Actually, I am going to stick up for the man. If I was meeting his ex for the first time and she was super dressed up and I wasn't I would feel self conscious. I think he is probably proud of you and wants you to look your best so he can rub it in the nose of his ex. I would feel good if my husband wanted to show me off.…
  • I commented earlier but I had two others real quick. Right after the birth of my son I was headed to the NICU to see him and some teenage kids yell at me in the parking garage "Hey fattie!" I replied I wasn't fat I had just had a baby to the jerk and he responded "Well did it taste good?" The other was when I was a…
  • I'm obese I admit it! I'm a BIG girl but I run on the elliptical and I mean RUN! My fat is flappin and I wear spandex to keep everything pretty tight so that it doesn't fly off (although that would be AWESOME) I get looks sometimes. Especially today when there was no school and all the tiny little high school girls decided…
  • After dating my husband for almost 10 years we announced our engagement. My mother in law looks at me and says "Is Missy pregnant because I've noticed she's been getting bigger." I wanted to die but only after I buried her body!
  • lol that is a Russo family for you! (I'm one too but probably not related to you) but it seems like whenever I bring up what I am doing it makes me self-centered. I think the problem is more that when people hear how well and see how well you are doing it makes them feel like they should be doing more. Usually, that means…
  • You are an inspiration! Thank you for sharing. Every day is a struggle but learning to love yourself is the best lesson in the world. Congrats and good luck with your journey.
  • If she does have actual issues she does need to get help.
  • I'm making a spiral ham, salad, homemade rolls, deviled eggs, and mashed taters. I'm going to follow that with running around hunting Easter eggs with the kiddos! I'm not worried about the extra calories (due to being in an upping cycle) but I'm probably going to work out a little extra on Monday. I'm more worried about…
  • I shop once a month at the grocery store and stock up. Usually, it comes to around 200. However, my husband eats at work and my son eats lunch at school. So that means that everyone only eats breakfast (usually cereal) and dinner together. I also spend around 100-200 per month on Schwan's. So all together for a family of…
  • I'm with you! I upped my cals last week and I gained 4lbs but I lost them this week along with an inch off my waist and hips. Upping really works!
  • Mt. Dew I tried to drink some today and spit it out in the sink cuz it was so gross.
  • Grr I give up I can't make my pictures work! Just look at my blog I posted a before and after pic of me.
  • LOLZ! this made my night great job!!!! I hope I can do this with my hubby some day!
  • Weird as this sounds a white skirt with a pink cardigan without my arms and legs looking like they are going to fall off in a gelatinous mass. (It's what I was wearing when I met my hubby) Plus, I want a new wedding dress for my 10 year vow renewal in a size 12-14 (I can't get any smaller than that even when I try)
  • That is so sweet!
  • So a little while ago I posted about eating too little calories and exercising too much. I was SUPER guilty. I spent 3 hours a day working out in the gym and I was skipping meals and eating barely 1000 calories a day. I was also losing TONS of weight. After my post and most of the same advice everyone here is giving and…
  • I have butterfly tattoos but they are all 'different' not any of those ones you find on the walls. I love butterflies and I am a singer so I have one on my neck made of music notes. I also have one on my foot and my lower back and mid back all made of different things that when put together look like butterflies. I am…
  • Granola bars. They are small have "CHOCOLATE!!!" and have tons of calories. I've had to start eating one before my workout, between the elliptical and the pool and on my way home just to fit in an extra 700 calories because my recommended intake is 1870 and that is before working out!
  • Xbox gamer tag is RckPaperShotgun. I'm a HUGE L4D, Bioshock (I can't wait till september) and Diablo freak. My husband was a computer programmer and we held a 'reception' on Sony online for our gamer friends during our wedding. I love LOTR and have read the books and watched the movies at least a dozen times. (I still want…
  • Today I slid on a pair of pants buttoned and zipped them up before realizing they were a size smaller than what I wore last week!
  • Phone booth My ex's mom calls me at 3am looking for him, my best friend calls at 7am to say she slept with my bf, and my ex calls at 9 am and when confronted asks for my friend's number.
  • I blame myself for my weight gain no one force oreos into my mouth. However, at the time I gained weight I was doing what was 'right' I was put on bed rest because of my two pregnancies and the complications. (Gestational Diabetes, Toxemia, and Pre-eclampsia) I wasn't overweight before and I was very active I was and…
  • I have a sports water bottle and I set times that it has to be empty. For example when I am working out I have to drink it every hour. (it holds 36oz) That insures me that I'm drinking enough and then during the day I drink it again. I average about 12, 8oz water a day)
