LOL!

I don't log my every day cleaning like washing dishes and wiping the toothpaste out of the bathroom sink, but once a week or so when I clean like scrubbing the shower and mopping the floor and doing laundry (I live in an apartment without a washing machine, so while putting clothes in and out of the machine isn't work,…

:heart: MLP!

THIS!

I didn't believe in soul mates until I met my husband . . . I wasn't the least bit romantic or interested in a relationship at all until I met him . . . It wasn't quite "love at first sight" but not far from it, though. He moved in with me less than two months after we met, I married him a year after meeting him, and we've…

These two dresses: http://www.torrid.com/torrid/Sale/Clearance/FeaturedAssortments/Dresses//Pink+And+Grey+Lace+Party+Dress-566859.jsp http://www.torrid.com/torrid/Sale/Clearance/FeaturedAssortments/Dresses//Fuchsia+And+Black+Lace+Strapless+Pickup+Dress-545909.jsp I could buy and fit in them now, but I want to be able to…

A big thing for me as far as healthy holiday eating . . . if I really really want something, no matter how unhealthy it is, I don't deny myself . . . I allow myself a small reasonable portion. If I refuse to let myself have any of the horribly bad for me things that are so delicious, I end up binging later. I look at it as…

I think it's safe to say this group is dead? :(

I just joined this group and I think the mini challenges may be just what I need to stay motivated . . . I'm working on the water, and I think I'm going to opt for the crunches . . . I live in a second floor apartment and I don't think my downstairs neighbor would appreciate jumping jacks!

I'm a fat girl and my husband is a fat guy . . . he was fat when I met him (320ish) and short too so in that respect the odds weren't good. He also dated thinner girls before me. Confidence is a big part of it. He doesn't let his size define him. Find a nice girl with common interests, get to know her, THEN ask her out.…

This exactly . . . my husband is in a Speech and Language Pathology program, so most of his classmates are females. It's finals time right now, so he spends plenty of time in the library studying with groups of females. But, they all know he is married and from what I hear, I come up in conversation pretty frequently . . .…

Third year PhD in Educational Studies and Research . . . I'm taking comps in the spring and then just have to write my dissertation! My mom died during my first semester, then the following year I planned my wedding and got married, quit my job when I got a new better job offer but then the new job fell through (they…

My husband has as many (maybe even more) female friends than male friends, and I am completely OK with that. However, there is also complete transparency and if a friendship makes me uncomfortable in any way, he respects that and changes it . . . I don't ask him to end friendships, but for example . . . he was giving a…

I was a barely comfortable 26/28 and now a baggy 24 . . . I'm very tall, so even though I've lost 50 pounds, it hasn't made as much difference as I would have liked in my clothing size (but it also means most people would be floored if they knew my actual weight).

I've had IBS for as long as I can remember, but when I had my gallbladder removed three years ago, it got much more severe since my diet was even more limited . . . After I was forced to essentially live off of white rice, baked chicken, and bananas for a few months, my general practitioner sent me to a gastroenterologist…

I think that when people see you every day, it's not as noticeable. You see yourself in the mirror every day so you don't really notice . . . when you see someone you haven't seen in a while, it's a lot more likely to get complimented . . . or at least that's how it was for me :)

With my PCOS, I have miserable cramps and off the wall menstrual cycles . . . even with the pill. I've tried different pills in the past and it seems like the ones that alleviate the cramps the most (by I guess keeping cysts at bay) give me ridiculously heavy periods. When I've tried not being on the pill in the past, I…

Ha ha, my 21 year old, 5'9", 135lb niece complains about things like how flabby her thighs are all the time and I just want to throw a brick at her!!! Usually, my response is something along the lines of "Gee, if you think you're fat AT ALL, please don't tell me what you think of me!!!"

I'm Tonya, from Mississippi . . . I started using MFP in early May and have lost 33 pounds so far. My high was about 405 and I hope to reach 175 eventually (I'm 6' tall and have a large frame . . .) Hmmm, what else . . . I'm 31 years old and married to an amazing man, I'm a PhD student in education . . . I hope to become…

Friend request sent :)

Ahh, I hate those cheap plastic chairs!!! Besides getting stuck in them (more than once), I once had one just collapse with me in it because the plastic broke. I was quite a bit lighter then than I am now, even. :embarassed:

Hi . . . I'm Tonya, 31 years old, and from Mississippi. When I started using My Fitness Pal at the beginning of May, I weighed at least 405 pounds. More, really, because my scale couldn't weigh me and I got "Error" every time I stepped on it. I've lost 31.4 pounds so far (I'm at 373.6 now) . . . I have about 200 more to…
