still at 232 on 7/10 :cry:

I don't always add in my Propel packet - it's 10 calories per packet - which I use for 64 oz of water (instead of 16) - I probably burn that 10 cals getting up to refill the jug and add another packet /shrug

I didn't read all the responses - but She can try an E-cig - there are cheap disposables she can start with - like $7 here for supposedly equivalent of 1 pack of cigarettes. If she uses only the E-cig and NO cigarettes at the same time - after about 2 to 3 days the cigarette smoke will gross her out - in addition to the…

I posted mine on the other thread yesterday, it was 232 for 07/03 no loss :( but TOM is rearing it's ugly head too, so hopefully next week will show my effort

Congrats on being humble enough to come back and ask for help! That's the first step. I agree with the others, don't be so hard on yourself! Maybe instead of worrying about doing it ALL at once take it one step at a time? Because that can be kind of overwhelming!!! That's what I did. First I started with the logging of…

not necessarily... my exercise yesterday - 14,396 steps was 5.4 miles - with a 24 inch stride... ETA: a mile is 63,360 inches - measure your stride then count your steps around the circle - you'll only have to do it twice to get an average - then just count how many laps you do - and then multiply your steps by your laps -…

^^^This feel free to add me too. I'm in the learning process too, once you see the gobs and GOBS of food you can eat and still have calories left over and wonder how you're ever going to eat that many calories - it completely changes your relationship with your food.

that's awesome Donna! I've been pushing hard too!

I"m not from IL but I went to SIUC, lived in Murphysboro and DeSoto

I've just started my 3rd week of really exercising, so I'm seeing the same thing - stalled for the past 2 weeks on the scale - but I keep trying to remember what a lot of folks are saying about the muscle holding water for repair.... but I still want to throw the scale across the hwy :explode:

how are you measuring your diaphragm? I think I may be taking you too literal, as there are only 2 diaphragms to measure one you can't do without an autopsy or ultrasound; the second, your doctor does when he teaches you to insert it...

What motivated me to start? Not being able to stand the heat or walk very far with my Tiny Tornado. I'm jealous of his energy - and I'm SUPER jealous of his abs... he's 3... he knows nothing about crunches and bicycle crunches etc., but the kid has turtle shell abs! Every day was a struggle to get out of bed, every muscle…

This has always worked great for me - takes the sting out, but need to reapply often Lidocaine aloe is pretty bomb too, but a teensy pricey

06/20/12 CW: 234 Neck: 15 Waist: 40.5 Hips: 48 I usually weigh on Wednesday, so I'll give you that tomorrow - then I'll start doing it on Tuesdays = I already ate and exercised for 77 mins today so my weight is not accurate to do now.

I personally have to avoid Aspartame. I discovered by trial and error, I started to developed literally blinding headaches (could not actually see anything), and then what was later diagnosed as a temporary fine motor paralysis (a type of seizure). I was unable to talk, no matter how hard I tried, I was semi-aware of what…
