Nothing wrong with it as long as you have things in common

Replacing fat with muscle is a possibility. Do you have a "smart scale" that tells you your percentages?

Happy Birthday and you look GREAT!! Congrats

I agree. I do low carb and if I go back to carb foods I gain. If your going to go low carb do it longer than a week and slowly work the carbs back in with carbs that are healthy.

Have you done your measurements? You could be replacing fat with muscle.

Sending friend request :)

You have done AWESOME!!! Congrats. You look great. Best of Luck you can do it :-)

Thats great. It will slow down but it is a great motivator as the first couple weeks are rough to get through. Best of Luck to you!!

Thats a good NSV! I suffer from anxiety and now that I think about it what you say is true, I cant remember the last time I needed my chill pill. :-) Enjoy your valentines day

just gotta muster it up, set goals and think that it will be worth it in the end

I need some friends to. Recently had to drop nursing school to attend to my daughter and illness. I have 2 little girls and current stay at home momma waiting to go back to college. I am struggling fairly badly. Add me if you need another friend for support and motivation as I could use it in return!

sounds fun

It can be bad for the body. its corrosive to the teeth. It contains aspertame sweetener which interferes with your potassium absorption (potassium helps your muscles contract) so as long as you dont have any heart, blood pressure problems its probably ok in moderation. I cant do aspertame because of extreme headaches. Oh…

Purchase a smart scale. It keeps track of your body fat percentage, pounds of body fat , water weight, bone mass and some do muscle mass. I try to only weigh in once a week and I steer clear of the scale during my TOM. MFP has helped me tremendously!!! Get some friends, feel free to add me for motivation and a support…

You are beautiful, and you have done a wonderful job. Thank You for my daily dose of motivation!

Great Job! Congrats!!:happy:

Im sorry your in pain over this. Its always hard at a break up, but you are going to have a better life now. Keep your head up, know you deserve better and when your not even looking your "prince charming" will be in front of you. Been there done that and life gets better once you rid yourself of negative people :) Wish…

Everyone who has told me I cant do it!!!

I know you wanted the mans point of view but.. Ive had this same issue for about 5 years. My husband is like a freakin porn addict!!! I HATE it, he doesnt see it as a problem. A woman will not win the battle of getting rid of the porn, Ive tried no matter how much effort a man that is already into it will not stop. Ive…

Got a husband, got comfortable, two kids back to back, postpartum depression for about 3 years layed in my house in the dark and tried to eat my problems away. I woke up one day and said what am I doing??!!! Now I have finally found a path that works for me :smile:

You all look GREAT!!:smile:

WOW! You look like a whole new person. Great Job!!

My husband calls me wifey. When he calls me baby I call him boy. lol. It all depends on how "the wife" feels about the title.

I think posting this and admitting to yourself that you have this problem will help you alot! I try and just stay positive, they are your family and will love you and accept you no matter what, and your losing weight, Im sure they will be even more suprised when they see you in real life rather than a picture. Keep up the…

Have your husband get neutered! lol. Thats what we did, I was to young to get it done so he did his :) NO more babies for us!

I stay with veggies fruit and protein.

I listen to my "bad mood music" it sounds silly but gives me that boost of energy I need. I listen to Eminem, Lil Wayne, Disturbed. Anything a little violent, I guess its because so many people have been negative about my weight loss goals it gives me motivation to say STFU to them :wink: lol

I had the same rant today! My step father (who is overweight himself and not trying to lose) was trying to tell me my "plan" wont work even though I have lost 20 pounds doing so! He told me to eat everything fried foods chips blah blah blah. It made me incredibly mad, so understand exactly where you are coming from. Just…

I have an android. If you have a contract see is they will upgrade you, and you dont need the iphone there are cheaper ones that work great also. Yes you have to pay for the internet access whatever price that is with your provider. Just ask about specials or discounts they have. Good Luck! I love my smart phone, I use run…

try to up your fiber or protein maybe. Thats what works for me but we are all different.
