WoW! My jaw dropped!

Buy Old Navy jeans a size down. They stretch soooooo much. If you put them on and bend your legs and squat a bit, they will stretch out to a point of being comfortable.

Oh I just threw out about 20 bras. I wish I had seen this sooner. What a great idea.

I completely forgot to do this last week! Duh me! Start Date July 15 Week 1 July 22 Starting Weight 150 Week 2 July 29 no loss...had a bad week.

Good Morning everyone! I had a crazy weekend and I'm feeling like I'm going to be up tomorrow. I hope not. I wasn't very great about working out or drinking my water. I worked crazy amounts of hours last week which really cut into my working out time. With 2 little kiddos at home it's so hard to find time... Meemaw...that…

Of course there is a difference!!! You go girl!!

I am 5'3 and I'm aiming for 130. Once I get there I will see how I feel and if I need/want to lose more.

I have lost the gross weekend 2 pounds! Now it is time to buckle down. I've worked out every day this week so far and I'm feeling good!!!

Thanks for the support everyone! I did so well yesterday but the 2 pounds are still there. I'm doing all right today. I even took my 3 year old to the free movie and didn't have any popcorn! And I took her out to breakfast and only had 2 scrambled egg whites, some what toast and some fruit. I did have a huge salad with…

Ugh! I need some "that's okay" and "you'll do better this week". I was away this weekend at a wedding and had some drinks and ate far too much junk. In the process I gained 2 pounds. I know some of it could be water weight but I'm sooooooooo mad at myself for slipping. I did exercise a lot on Saturday (ran 2 miles, walked…

great job those of you who lost weight! Meemaw...it will come off, try not to be too mad at yourself. Vacations happen! I was soooo bad this past weekend that I am surprised I didn't gain more weight than just 0.2 pounds. I haven't been able to exercise as much either so I've been really trying to keep the cals at 1200 on…

Congratulations! That's great!

I can't b/c my ticker weight loss is based on my weight when I started MFP and I've lost 6 pounds since starting here. So unless there's a way to change my starting weight, I don't know how to change my ticker!

Meemaw I hope you have a good trip. I can't imagine how tempting the food on a cruise will be! Just found out we are going to St. John from December 5th to the 12th. So forget Christmas, I need to look good for that!!! I worked from 8-6 yesterday and actually went out and jogged 2.5 miles when I got home. In 80degree heat!…

I did South Beach a few years back and lost about 15 pounds. But it was super hard. I ate lots of eggs, chicken, salad. Did you research South Beach at all? It's a good lowcarb plan and after the first 2 really strict weeks, you slowly introduce "better" carbs into your diet.

You are hysterical!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Wow! Thanks. MFP has me at 45g but I weigh 150 pounds so that's a lot lower than what I really "should" be eating. Off to change my settings! Thank you!

Yummy!! I can't wait to try this. Thank you soooo much!! Now...I need a low cal frosting! LOL

Gets the job done! LOL :bigsmile: :drinker:

I'm sorry for your loss. Stress can do crazy things to our bodies. Are you taking any meds for stress/depression due to the situation. A lot of anti depressants can cause weight gain.

Thank you! I know if you have kidney disease you should be careful about eating too much but I don't have any kidney issues. I love my protein and don't want to cut it back!
