I can't get warm no matter what I do. However, I will trade off being cold for healthy. I can buy a coat, not health.

Hello all. I am in the Cincinnati area. Hope everybody had a great holiday.

Just smile an thank them. In their defense, they are not used to seeing you thinner and the person they know has changed or is even gone. If you were in a circle of people that didn't know you and the comments will be very different. WOW you look great, what are you doing to look that good, wish I had that shape, etc.…

From a guys perspective, if I have to give up friends male or female, I'll say goodbye to you. Not trying to be nasty, but I would not give up me to have a relationship.

I used to live in a small town so I understand. But my main thought now is "screw them all". Makes life much easier and happier for me.

People can be rude. I call it "stupid" and there are days that I do not do "stupid" well. Use the event to make yourself stay on the plan and be that much more determined. Then go back when you are at your goal and say, screw you I was then and I am now beautiful. (You have a lot of friends that will back you up on that…

4 weeks ago at 22 pounds lost and have not moved. I am trying to exercise more, but doesn't seem to be working. Everybody tells me to change something up so I am adding jogging to the mix in my work out. We'll see.

Nothing short of awesome results. Way to go.

Anybody with a license that learned to drive in Ohio.

Honestly a good brandy or even better a good Scotch. It really does help all kidding aside. It makes your throat feel better and the alcohol in your system (according to my grandfather) so kill germs. (I perfer to believe that old fashion remedy).

I very much agree. But can't find anything else and when I do I get "feedback". Sucks, but it is what it is.

Truthfully, I wait as long as I can to go to the next size down. If I can go two sizes even better. Now dress cloths I have to keep up with. But jeans and less "style like" cloths I don't want to waste money constantly buying them. So, I go as long as I can between sizes. (Normally someone tells me I look terrible which is…

Being a male and was married to a female that was not "mentally straight enough" to raise kids, I went to court to get custody in a time where that was not a common thing for males. In the end it all worked out. You don't need to hear that story as that is not what you asked. But here is what I learned during the process.…

Peanut butter on anything - including just a plain spoon!

My neighbor (two houses down) once called and asked if I had hot water. I said yes of course. He said, that they don't and they wondered when theirs would come back on! I had to hang up the phone before I said something that ended that friendship!

1. Did you split amicably - Worse ememies ever - the court ordered the kids to live with me and she never got over that. 2. Did you kill each other during the process - yes 3. Was the divorce due to cheating - No but it would have been better if it was. 4. Do you regret your decision - Not at all. 5. Did you keep your…

I so agree with taking measurements. Honestly I did not and I regret it now. I am stuck at a weight loss yet I keep taking up a Notch on the belt. So I am happy yet discouraged. It is a strange emotion. People tell me it is because I am working out and muscle weights more that fat. I agree, but still the feeling of…

Most of us saw the same thing. It will settle down to 1 - 2 pounds a week eventually. Get excited about it now however, you deserve it. Just don't expect it to continue like that.
-
I hear you, I hear you. I am within 5 pounds of my goal and it is so difficult to get the rest off. I will say (having done this a number of time before), it has to come off. Feeling comfortable where you are has always been a "cop out" for me. Keep pushing, get it off, and you will feel even better about yourself. It is…
-
I get it. I am not dropping as fast as others either. But the way I look at it is had I not been on MFP I probably owuld have gained weight. So any weight loss is a good one and I try to tell myself slower is more sustainable. Maybe that is an excuse, but if it is going to be a way of life now and in the future, what's the…

I simply choose not to go to places that don't share this information. I don't think government should legislate it as they can't even take care of what they have to do today. On the other hand, I choose to exercise my freedom of choice and won't go to places that don't share the information. Yes I have been asked to go…

I know the feeling girls. As weight is going away, my "Boys" are getting lower - of course now I can see them! Went to the store the other day (Bass Pro Shop) and got new underwear. Decided to try the lift and separate kind. Now when I sit down they are up in my throat! Ouch!

Totally agree. Peanut butter, water, water, water, and bed.
