  • I didnt have breast Cancer, but Ovarian and Uterine. Got thru that but the Ovarian came back on my liver. I really thought that Cancer was gonna be a great diet. Well ive gain 40 of the 50 pounds i lost before diagnoses. Remission now and trying to get that 40 off again and more. Good luck to you.
  • Great job. It get easier the more you loose. It's hard work but I'm finding I talk to myself a lot now, lol. Like do you really need more or you know your not hungry. Boredom is my biggest problem. I also was pre diabetic. I think thats what finally clicked for me. Kinda weird that I was willing to give up sugar and carbs.…
  • Its improved my smile. I actually stop and look in the mirror. I have a lot to go yet. But for the first time in my life I think I got this! And my blood pressure has gone down. Looking forward to getting off the pills.
  • Ive been down that road. I was told if I didn't lose the weight I would be put on meds. So im down 50 pounds in 6 months. You can do this im 57 years old and over 100 pounds over weight. For me I logged everything that went into my mouth. I bought a 5 dollar stationary bike at a thrift store and rode that. I know have a…
  • Not thrown away, but have punted it across the room a few times. I agree with most people on here. If your clothes are fitting better, your doing something right.
  • I feel your pain! June just sucked for me. My Thyroid numbers are off. So my meds have been changed. I hope July is better for both of us. Put the scale In the closet and just forget about It for a while. Im ignoring mine for the next week. My clothes are falling off me but my scale isn't moving. Relax and enjoy the 4th.…
  • Sometime that scale don't want to move. I went all of June only loosing 3 pounds. Bummer, up its moving again. I think when we get older or body gets comfortable with what we weigh. As far as exercise, I found this exercise called Sit and be fit. I found it on my Discovery health channel. Im sure you could find them on…
  • Hi, well had mine removed in 2007. My pills were 175 until about 2 weeks ago, Ive lost 40 pounds and my last blood test I was going into hyper. So he dropped me to 135. Next week I get blood drawn to see if it leveled off. Your pills seem low, but im not a Dr. Do u have blood drawn every 3 months? I do. Its a crazy ride…
  • You are never alone on here. I was also over 300 pounds, im down 40 now. kinda stalled but that is my own doing. Tons of people on here. Some need to drop a lot and some just want to get that last 10 pounds off. Its a hard thing losing weight. It takes will power. And you have got to want it bad. You will find your own…
  • What a wonderful Birthday gift to yourself. Your health! I cant wait to get that much weight off. Took me 50 yrs to put in all on. Lost 40 and have a lot to go. Good luck and Congrats!
  • Never too late, Im 57 and have lost 40 pounds since the end of January. Log, log, log, everything that goes in your mouth. And personally don't try fads. I eat what I feed my husband. Just portion control. I stop and think " do I really need more". And get moving walking is free. When I look back at how easy the last 5…
  • Well I need to lose that much. Im down just over 40 pounds. My daughter is getting married in September. Would love 60 or 70 pounds by then. I would be happy to be a cheer leader for you. Its not easy to do, but it can be done. Add me if you like.
  • Your face looks amazing! Ive started about the same place. Only 40 down. But working on it. Good job and good luck.
  • Ive found that after it hits my mouth, it gets logged in. That way I can see what im eating. I think you are eating to few calories. You need to fuel your body. I also need to lose 100 pounds or more. Ive lost 30 in 3 months. When I think back on what I was eating its no wonder im so fat! I do snack a lot during the day.…
  • Hi, sorry about your situation. But screw em! Do it for yourself. You can go out and walk that way your not around them. Try to find a walking buddy. We have a morning walking group at our Mall. Maybe you can look into something like that. Believe me the longer you wait the harder it is to take it off. I agree with you I…
  • I cant wait to get to the "other side of my closet". Where all the stuff i bought dont fit and my other side of the underwear drawer. I wont need to buy clothes for a while. I can already feel the difference in my jeans. And it is a good feeling.
  • NICE! im up where you started ok so a little bigger. I cant wait to hit my first new pair of Jeans. If winter would just go away. I would be outside working more. Your a great inspiration.Thanks :flowerforyou:
  • I guess I didn't know how or if mine is closed. Im new here and just learning the system. Not that we are friends, but if you want to view mine feel free. Love my skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches! :bigsmile:
  • I just read your profile. I have a question, im using weights, just I guess what you would call curling. Do you tighten your hand ( squeeze the weight) on the up motion or down. Im only using 4 pounds, but you have to start somewhere. My problem is ive had so many health issues in the past 3 yrs. I no longer work and ive…
