Having my boobs stick out farther than my belly! :p lol jk kinda. Although I do have a roll around the middle and batwings, I will now wear tank tops and actually prefer the ribbed kind that are clingy. I guess in general I just like my body way more than I did at my heaviest. I mean I still have fat and now have saggy…

If you eat dairy in addition to eggs, you could do cheese sandwiches loaded with veggies (try on a low carb wrap for an extra protein punch). Also, good sources of protein from dairy include greek yogurt, string cheese, lowfat cottage cheese. All can be eaten with fruit or veggies to make a complete meal. Big salads packed…

Pure Protein Chocolate Peanut Caramel 190 calories and 20 grams of protein. A little higher on carbs than I like but they taste like a candy bar only packed with protein.

Stalk your friends' friends on facebook. lol I know this sounds horrible, but I have had guys strike up a conversation with me via messager regarding a comment I've posted on a friend's post. I have also had a few guys befriend me that I don't know but are friends with one or more of my friends and then we chat. My…

I'm with bikrchk in that mine only seems to happen when I binge on sugar. I am 3 years out. I can and always have been able to tolerate sugar in small doses, but if I overdo I get nausea, flushed and feel like I'm going to pass out. No diarrhea though just severely ill feeling. Generally I lay down for a bit if I can and…

Mine started at about 5 months and was over by about 8 months. I had minimal hair loss thanks to taking two multivitamins a day, iron, biotin, vitamin D and B12.

Ok I've been with a few guys since having lost weight. All were aware that I had lost a large amount of weight and not a one mentioned anything negative about my excess or saggy skin. Honestly I was so uptight about it when I slept with the first guy that had he made a negative comment, I probably would have become an old…

I wear two shirts to exercise no matter how hot it is because I can't stand my stomach bouncing up and down. And I won't exercise in shorts. :'( Just the results of having gained and lost 100+ pounds several times in my life and having a child. Lots of excess skin around my middle and on my upper thighs. Too much jiggle in…

When I went to WW, the leader talked about this all the time. Just use a 12 oz can of diet soda and a box of cake mix. Mix up and bake as usual. She also brought in cake one time that she had used canned pumpkin in instead of the eggs and oil. I have also heard of using applesauce in place of the wet ingredients as well.…

Yep had the happen before. The guy would only contact me while I was working and then proceeded to get pissy that I wasn't instantly getting back to him even after I told him I was at work. Well then he could only blow up my email until 3:30 and then nothing. Come to find out he was married.

I am just over 3 years out from being sleeved. I lost 147 pounds initially (from 325 to 178) and still needed to lose out 20 more to get to my goal weight within the first 15 months. I had stalled at 147 pounds for about 6 months to no avail and had decided that I was healthy, happy and looked good at that weight so I…

Light string cheese with either fruit or raw veggies gives protein and the crunch factor I need. I also like fruit with greek yogurt or cottage cheese.

When I was single, I referred to V-Day as Singles Awareness Day. lol Yeah kinda depressing but my daughter and I decided to make it fun and have a girl's day out with shopping and lunch and a movie. Now that I'm with my bf, we use it as a time to splurge on a gift for each other that compares to birthdays or Christmas. Not…

How much protein are we talking? Maybe a 3-4 ounce portion of grilled chicken served on a salad. No cheese and no dressing.
-
I usually do a low carb wrap with ham or turkey and cheese and add some raw veggies like grape tomatoes or cucumber slices on the side. Usually for snack or my pre-lunch, I have a couple light cheese sticks and some raw veggies. I usually eat three times while at work because I tend to eat smaller lighter meals as this…

Single and not even dating at this point. Just ended a 1 1/2 year relationship about a month and a half ago and right now I'm reassessing myself and what I want in life.

This sounds just like me lately too. I did so good for a long time and managed to drop 147 pounds, but somewhere along the way I stopped eating like I should and put on a few pounds then stopped exercising and put on a few more pounds. No I am back to -125 pounds from my highest weight, but I am not comfortable. Yeah I'm…

Thanks everyone. I know my biggest issue is that I need to get back to making healthier food choices and drinking more water and give up (or at least cut down) on the diet soda. Was looking at this LTL plan to help keep me motivated to "stay on the wagon" long enough that these things became a habit again. But you all are…

I think light cleaning is your usual cleaning like vacuuming, dishes, cleaning bathrooms, making beds, etc. Heavy cleaning to me is the spring cleaning type cleaning where you are moving furniture, cleaning windows, scrubbing floors by hand, etc.

Aww thanks Anna. Yeah we were together for 1-1/2 years. Sometimes things just don't work out. Not really in a hurry to get back out there right now. Grieving and healing and focusing on me right now. :smile:

I totally notice when I eat unhealthy foods. Just one meal from McDonalds can make me feel bloated and sluggish for the rest of the day and sometimes even zaps my energy the following day. That being said when I fall off the wagon, I fall big time and it takes me awhile to get back on so I eat crappy foods and feel like…
-
That is pretty typical at 3 months out. I often found that how much I could eat greatly depended on what type of protein I was eating. For example I could eat maybe 3-4 ounces of chicken or ground beef but if I ate say cottage cheese, I could eat 1/2 cup plus a string cheese and a couple bites of veggies. I'd say you are…

Home watching tv with my 10 year old. Haha! So exciting. But seriously after a recent breakup, I'm not really in a big hurry to get back out there right now. Working on me and just enjoying some downtime while contemplating life. Sucks though as most of my friends are married or in committed relationships at this point in…

lol I feel this way when asked what type of guy I like. I've had at least one guy tell me that he had been told he wasn't my type. I was like and how do they know what my type is because I'm not even totally sure. :huh:
