Thank you for sharing your story with us. You have a lot of guts. You are welcome here as you will find a lot of support here. I went through a similar past, but not to such an extreme extent. A friend of mine gave me an antidote He said - "Every night, review your day. The whole picture will be completely wonked out. But…

Im getting "Download Denied" whats up??

I am sorry, I don't agree with this. People have been pretty mean to me all my life. But many, many, many people have been supportive and kind as well. Just kick the mean people out of your circle. Dont talk to them. Cherish the kind ones - they are numerically far more than the unkind ones.

It's true - we often instinctively rely on family to give us support, but it is not coming. Then we feel hurt. Our family and "so called friends" also put us down, and it hurts. But, there is a way out - - Keep all good natured friends who support you in your inner circle - Kick the butt of those who don't support you - be…

I will tell you a method I follow with some success - I assume I will binge (comfort seeking behaviour) I prepare a list of fuods that I love asmuch as I love meat and burgers I found that the list included some healthy foods along with a lot of unhealthy ones. I binge on the healthy foods and have them stocked - like Tuna…

This topic has triggered a lot of rage in me. I am male, 49 and a consultant. At one of the clients place, there were a couple of women who would attempt to put me down because of my weight. They would come together and as I passed the corridor, make comments like "When is the baby due?", "Wov!! You look pregnat", etc. It…

That just proves that if we tae charge of our lives, we call all transform ourselves. But God! Why does it have to be so hard?? Couldn't it have been a little easier??

Twinmama Your poses look great. I am concentrating on flexibility right now. From your profile I can see you have been at it for 2 years. How often do you do yoga and for how much duration? What issues did you face, what difficulties? Could you elaborate please? Thanks

During that month, I've worked out for 3,000 minutes (50 hours), burnt 35,000 calories, lifted 360,000 pounds, done 8,000 situps and run about 200 miles. 26 months ago, I couldn't run a quarter mile or bench 100 pounds Wov!! Congrats!!! 26 months ago you could not run a Quarter of a mile - so what they say that no matter…

You have shown the path for us to follow. Thanks

My God! You have got me all inspired.

Wov!! If that's not God's work, I dont know what else is. You are blessed dear, you have been touched by Grace. Glory be!!!!

When I started in Jun, I was doing about 1000 Cal a week. I have reduced it to 500 Cal a week. That is because - i) I have started stretching. That means only 90-130 Cal a day ii) I realized that I should not put calories in in the first place. I know you would think that 500 Cal a week is poof!! But I am getting results,…

Scott, Just wanted u to know that 16 kgs = 35 lbs

Thaks a lot, folks. As I said, I am Male, 49, and terribly unfit. I have decided to do a lifestyle change towards fitness. That means losing 14 kgs (already lost 4 of these), and trying to be flexible. My plan is to do yoga/stretching till Dec/Jan. Within a week I have seen dramatic results in some areas, and hardly any…

I am at the same place. I lost 4 kgs (9 lbs) in 2 months after joining MFP. But the weight has stopped falling. I guess I just have to keep on.
-
Wov! Supergirl, Wov! I was wondering if I too could run 5K. I'm 49-Male, a bit overweight. Why dont you share some more thoughts about the process. I know what c25k is, just wanted to know what you went thru.
-
Thank you all for your kind answers. Yes - Yoga or something like it seems the best. What I wanted to know, however, is how long does it take. I know you would not get instant results and I have to be patient. But how patient? Could anyone share their personal tid-bits? Like - "It took me 4 weeks to touch my toes", or "I…

Hey guys, I'll be tracking your progress. I am unable to do it at present, but would do it next year maybe. But I'll keep you guys all motivated
-
Wov - you look gooood! Yet that advice that you gave us - its solid - real solid. Thanks dear
-
I am hooked to this App. I joined 2 months ago and have lost 4 kgs. If I go at this rate, I'll lose 10 kgs more by Dec (my goal). I am telling about this site to everyone. The greatest advantage of this site is that it's easy, and you check yr logs and yr weight comes down. I am waiting for Dec!! THANK YOU MFP

My Gawd Twinmama!!! I desperately, desperately want to have your sort of flexibility. What did you do? Can you share pleeeease???
