I weigh in once a week no matter what, it keeps me accountable. If I am feeling extra light mid week I may weigh and track it to keep myself motivated. The more I lose the more I want to do good.

I personally get migraines if I have anything with aspartame in it. I found this out a few years ago when I decided to drink crystal light instead of soda, sucks for me cause crystal light is delicious. Some people have no issue with it so I guess its a personal preference, but it seems like a pretty scary chemical, I even…

You would be surprised of how many people ask a rape victim what they were wearing. Come on people ( or should I say Ignoramis) 1 in 6 women will be the victim or have an attempt of rape in their lifetimes and it has nothing to do with what they are wearing. I wonder if the lady who wrote the earlier post would not feel as…

I would not approach him if I were you. I know this is going to sound a bit extreme but I would approach the police and ask them to run his record. They may even offer to talk to him about his behavior. And if it turns out he has no record, who cares! I think as females we have to listen to our intuition and stop trying to…

OMG, the other day I was eating and suddenly I asked myself " why are you eating this like someone is going to come in and take the plate away". I mean I have always been a fast eater, and since going back to school it has gotten worse. Eating while driving is another thing that I am trying not to do. I know this is not…

Wow you look fabulous!

I absolutely hate taking pics, when I look in the mirror I like what I see, but then someone snaps a pic and I am like really how can I look so bad and not know it. Hopefully this will change as I start to loose more.

I'm 5'7" and 181.6, I think I wear a size 13 in jeans but refuse to buy anything over a size 11. I buy alot of elastic waist band stuff which I know is completely wrong, size L for the bottoms and XL for the tops. My goal is to be back in size 9 jeans that have room to breath, and a large in the top would be great too.

Lol, I thought about keeping my profile private out of fear that people I know would see my weight. Then I realized they have seen me and they already know :)

I think if I was on maintenance for lets say 3 months with no gain, maybe I would try to log my calories every other day and see how that works. What I do realize is that I need to weigh in every Friday, no if's and's or butt's. I wish there was a reminder to weigh in, not that I would forget, just so that I do it. I…

I feel the same way.

I think I will invest in a HRM if I start to plateau:happy: , thnx!:happy:

Lived in Cambridge for a year when I was younger, and both my parents are from Nova Scotia but I am in Cali. Do I count?:)

Ok good, I thought I was missing something.

Aspartame, I wish it didn't give me migraines. I love crystal light lemonade but my head can't handle it.

There is a limit on beverages? I mean I know your not suppose to drink my calories, which I love to do but I havent seen the spot for beverage limits. Please advise.

Ok so I just figured out where to go to see my responses, LOL. My total calorie goal is 1570, I ended up walking for a half hour and was able to eat a light dinner.

I didn't like her when she was on American Idol, and actually I think I will blame her for my lack of success on WW, lol. But I will give her this....she looks great!

I used to take Metabolift with ephedra, and I LOVED IT! After it was taken off the market I spent hours and hours searching for alternatives, which I never found. I'm too scared to try the prescription stuff, I think I would get addicted. Good luck and be careful!

Yesterday I was able to avoid eating out and ate all day long. I still had over 100 calories left at the end of the day due to exercise calories. I woke up feeling so guilty today. This is my 2nd week and I am not fully trusting the process yet. I guess I will find out when I way on Friday.

Lol!

Do you like grapefruit? I have found that it stabalizes my bloodsugar and helps with the cravings. Try it next time you want to crab the cookies :)

I did the slow carb diet which allowed you one day a week to cheat. I personally found it hard to get back on track, and found myself craving things that I normally do not crave. I do not drink alcohol and suddenly I wanted cocktails with my meal, go figure. I think it depends on the person on whether it works or not. It…

I think low carb success depends on one's individual makeup. I have tried it and found that I lose double the weight in a week with the same amount of calories if I focus on cutting the carbs. I also feel completely bloat free and energized. Only down fall, I love bread so I usually cant maintain the low carb lifestyle.

185 which is what I am right now, yikes!
