I've lost 6 and am on clound nine. Can't wait to be at 17 you r my inspiration

Of course he's noticed. He's either intinidated or mean.

Chopped salads - run the romaine and everything else thru the slicing blade. cut up enough for a few days and tupperware them in the fridge. Put your add ins later (turkey grated cheese olives etc)

I'm not quite sure how to do these reply things but maybe I did it right this time. I totally agree with being very careful w/ Rx and have posted as such somewhere in this thread.

Very true. One should see a psychiatrist for these meds and be monitored carefully as they do affect different people different ways. I see mine about once a month just for a 10 minute check in. It's not talking therapy with these guys - strictly meds. Though therapy may recommended. I do not go to therapy as my problem…

No that never happens to me, but I used to waked up depressed. The anger and irritability would hit later. I went on an anti-depressant/anti-anxiety med (an SSRI) 12 years ago and my life has been so much better. There is very little social stigma in being on there meds - so many people are on them now. They work and, to…

God Morning Mad Hatters. I am laying in bed having my iced coffee with my 2 dogs and 2 cats spread out around me. My son is asleep. Husband gone to work. So peaceful and lovely. I have been using my summer break from RN school to catch up on things like cleaning the garage and some heavy gardening and I am exhausted and…

This group is exactly what I was looking for!! So excited. I lost my 5th pound today! Well I wrote a bit about myself in the original conversation leading up to the start up of this group. I'm 50. Done with menopause. It was a two year process but it seems to be over. I have had weight problems all of my life but this time…

Hi. I'm 50 and just pretty much finished going through menopause. I'm 5'6" and currently weigh 195 having lost 4 pounds already. I am shooting for 1 pound per week as 2 pounds per week was too stressful for me to attain. I don't like starving. I was put on my first diet at 3 years old and have struggled with weight all of…

Oh I did that too. I wasn't even hungry the next day so I ate less to make up for it. I also did a 4 hour bike ride which eliminated the calories

Them's fightin words:sick:

I agree with you. see my post

Never. I have l had the perfect awesome figure several times in my life and each time I attain that goal I swear I will never gain it back.. I do every time and I grieve and say how did I let this happen again??? I have had weight problems since I was a child. I have a huge appetite and now that I'm 50 I have accepted that…

1500 a day seems right. Rememberhere they make you count lettuce and celery and things that were "free" in weightwatcher so the calories do add up. Im new too. need buddies!

Im new too and need support. I have 40-50 pounds to lose and that seems like a mountain I don't know if I can climb. add me?

Hi, I also recently neared the 200 pound mark. I have had weight issues since I was a little kid. Lost it and gained it back probably 30 times. I don't think you need to worry about hanging skin. Mine has always been fine when I've gotten skinny. I want to lose 40 pounds. I go through the same ups and downs. Yesterday I…
