Happy Friday!

Bump

Carrot Chips w/Hummus! mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Got hit on by well known Basketball Player at a club in Las Vegas last year...in a Creeeeeeeper kind of way. (Celtic, recently traded to the Brooklyn Nets) That was after a 50lb loss, and before I started my tracker on MFP. He had his body gaurd pull me off the dance floor over to his 'private couch' introduced himself,…

Ridiculous. Someone has a sense of humor and a lot of free time at that brewery. Thanks for sharing!!

I can vary about 5 lbs over the course of a day...Eating/drinking/water retention from a salty meal...etc. They all factor, just make sure to keep an chart so you can monitor your average over weeks/months, rather than getting attached to the emotions from a daily weigh in.

Congratulations on your determination, and the amazing success you have earned as a reward :)

I second what so many have said about E-cigs. But I'll add that you should try the Vaporizer variety (Like a Ego-C5, or similar) These are the ones that have flavored liquids which contain the nicotine. They are much easier to 'draw' smoke/vapor from. The earlier style E-ciggarettes are small and, in my opinion, too hard…

bump - for future laughter tears.

Getting under 200lbs again, back to the numbers starting with a '1'

Yup...that's it, seems I really did block it out!

Oh, and if you want a really good current Horror/Suspense ghost story in Netflix, check out "The Awakening" I was HUGELY impressed. New favorite 'ghost' story, my last favorite was 'The Others'

M. night's "The Knowing" I was so mad at having wasted time on this. Seriously...the big reveal - Grass and treas conspired to take us (humankind) out? Really? \wrist.

Join the group 'in place of a road map' and check out their topics related to metabolism resets.

Wow. Commenting to keep that visual.

Check out the threads for this group - it will help you better understand calorie needs and the group is very supportive. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/7965-in-place-of-a-road-map

Yes it counts :) plus you get water from so many other sources...foods, other drinks, etc. Just focus on trying to work more straight H2O into your daily intake and you'll be fine. Something that helped me is hearing that the majority of the time you feel a 'hunger pang' it's actually your body telling you that it's…

Can't wait to see that 'One' in the front myself, it's been 3 lbs away for weeks now. The body just can be stubborn sometimes! SUPER congratulations to you :)

Have you heard of the Dynaflex Powerball? They sell them at most sporting goods stores, and are supposed to improve grip. They are advertised for improving golf hold, baseball, gaming, etc...but I would guess they'd be great for weight lifting as well.

5'9" Highest weight 257, that was 2 years ago... Current weight 206, and just starting to move it down again...yay Goal weight, for now 180, then I'll start the next one of 157, for a nice even 100lb loss.

SUCH A DIFFERENCE! Congratulations <3

I can't wait for this to come to CA too. Personally, I enjoy smoking, but have quit due to work drug screenings. This has led to Wine being what I turn to instead to close out the night/relax. Calorie wise, and diet wise, the Wine is much more harmful! Note - i've never had issues controlling the munchies. a diet soda is…

Awesome read. Bump.

abbyneekole - That's really good advice. I don't mind taking myself out to movies/dinners Solo, so maybe I'll do this a bit more often and give us both alone time....

Thanks strangers...If i had a close friend I would cry on their shoulders with this, but all this moving makes keeping up with friends hard, let alone having/finding that bestie type friend. It helps to hear other's opinions/takes on this confusing situation...I find I latch on to certain lines of advice that you give, and…
