some people think the opposite of love is hate. but I don't think that's true. its indifference. Some day, believe it or not, you will be completely indifferent to this guy. you won't wish him harm, or wish him well, in fact there will be days you don't even think of him. and if you do, it will be with the same emotion you…

I am proud of you too:drinker: Ya did good.

Stop in and say Hey. I understood each person worked their personal plan and came here for support. I expect there are several people here on WW. I am low carb plus calories. which is somewhat harder than I expected and have found the support, stories, input and information to be incredible. If you do go, please come back…

If my memory is correct Marilyn was a size 14.

Catlover, I so agree with you. we do set ourselves up for failure by putting ourselves in the situation of buffets, cookies in the house, and scads of other scenarios. With me its all or nothing, which is why low carb works for me when most others don't. Now I have added calorie counting to low carb and have managed so…

:smile: went to the Post Office today to ship him a care package and they said that it is only taking about a week to reach the soldiers. For the MFP's that have asked about an address. I have one for my husband and his unit if you would like. It is only in the low 70's so I don't think the chocolates will melt too much.…

on the bright side, you won't have any appetite either!!!:laugh:

you are an addict. sugar is addictive. and when the resources start to get low you crave it, and you even have withdrawls. it sucks:grumble: I managed to kick sugar, and most empty carbs but I fight with it everyday. its everywhere in things you least expect. when I started reading labels it was shocking. There seems to be…

I count it as a protein:heart: I make half a recipe and half a recipe has 450 calories, no fat, 20 grams of protein, I don't remember the carbs, there is a half a cup of flour in my 1/2 recipe, also I count the Splenda as 100 cals. since I went to their website and they tell me a cup has 24 carbs. 1 3/4 Cups Splenda 1/4…

I am not a huge sweets eater, but these are the exception. I will definately be having one of these at Easter. :heart: I will ride the bike 170 calories worth.

ask your sister if she can talk to one person, (a real person and not one selling the stuff.) that has used this method and kept the weight off for at least 6 months. with every other diet or lifestyle change in the world whether we agree with them or not, there are people who have been successful and will recommend the…

try it this way...I WOKE UP!!! and was given enough time this morning by getting up early to be grateful for some alone time. I drank a warm cup of tea, in my cozy home, cared and loved, in the presence of my family. There is food in my home, I am surrounded by choices...after this tea, maybe I will stretch a little to…

:flowerforyou: YOU GOT IT!!!! you have managed to figure out where the problem lies and what to do about it. that is very cool. I know you will win round 2!!

VERY COOL :glasses: I was thrilled I lost the 15, its been very enlightening. Missing the goal wasn't as crushing as it might have been without all the support I have gotten here. I know its about consistency and not speed. Its a difficult thing for me to learn, being a person of instant gratification. :wink: But the next…

Try the taco salad without the beans, don't eat the shell and leave off the sour cream. its reasonable then.

Its not just gum either, I have a couple of horror stories of the results of sugar free candy. :embarassed: I actually use this to my advantage now, when I am a bit constipated and want a treat as well. :happy:

:heart: Good morning and Happy Valentines Day!! I missed my goal of 199 for V day challenge by 1 pound :noway: But did lose 15. started 215 goal 199 ended 200 It is also 1/2 way through my 100 day journey. Hope everyone did as well.

I drink a protein drink EAS Low Carb. its 110 cals and chock full of good for you stuff. it keeps away the hungries and isn't empty calories. Celery is a wonderful food. I am one of the lucky ones who don't get hungry between meals maybe that's why.

Try to spin it to the positive, and think about how many calories you can burn if you shovel the walk.:laugh:

GOOD JOB:flowerforyou:

Well, you have all heard me gripe about not having the spine to stand up for yourselves, or take your own decisions into your own hands and all the other idea, but sure enough I fell right into that same old crap. sunday we went cruising through neighborhoods, our lease is up and we want to move. after a very frustrating…

you're 133? and what is your goal weight? do you only have a few pounds to lose? if that is the case then of course you aren't going to drop anything huge. you don't have anything huge to lose. if you only have 10 pounds to lose or maybe a bit more or less, your body will cling to it as long as it can. what is your bmr?…

US measurements are bunches of fun to learn.:laugh: conversion from grams to US standards are even harder. :noway: but there are roughly 28 grams in an ounce. and 8 oz in a cup and 16oz in a pound. all liquid measures. because here we have both liquid and dry measures. easy so far, right? :wink: If you want to cook with US…

You guys all have some really cool sites that I go and see, then forget to save and can never find again. so I thought I would start this Thread for us to post those great sites. Here is a food counter one I have found, Plus I am going to add the fast food links and such as I find them. I need one for Chinese and Greek…

who is your family? your mom and dad, who made the decision and ordered for everyone, or you and your husband and the kids? cause if it was mom and dad, and your decision was made for you, you have a right to be angry they did not take your needs into consideration, ( I mean ,really ,if you were allergic to chocolate,…

all very well said. don't feed your kids the stuff you have deemed unhealthy for yourself. there is a healthy alternative to almost everything. snacks don't have to be sweets either. you might have to slide some of the good stuff in a little at a time, but you can do it. when my kids were little and I was dieting (of…

is that what the package means when it says 'may contain up to 10 percent solution?!" I try never to buy those. I go to a meat market just up the street. I think they have just regular chicken breasts, but I will begin asking that question. thanks. BTW how did you learn the trick with the lemon juice and how does it work?

8 oz water x 8=64 ounces or a half a gallon there are 128 ounces in a gallon. which is a lot of water
