Nice thanks. Thank you everybody for your suggestions :)

49 years old. High School Art. Anybody can add me :)

student:wink:

all great ideas. Thanks everybody.

I have Leslie Sansone "Walk at Home" which there is a lot of arm lifting, jabs, and kicks too so just to be "safe" on my calories I have been logging it as slow walking.... I'm surprised the exercise search isn't as thorough as the food search is for when calories are logged. thanks for your two cents. :)

Nice. thanks.

thanks. I'll check it out!!

I love your attitude. That, for the most part, is mine too. I just want to do it for myself and wondered if it can be done. I don't think I would spend money on plastic surgery. Thanks.

Sounds great. You're so sweet. Thank you for all the info.:smile:

At first I was having Coke-Fridays and I would limit myself to one of a certain size. That gradually became Coke-Wednesday and Friday and I had a bad day so the largest size was okay. Finally , I made up my mind I was done with the stuff, and I knew it had to be completely gone or it would creep back in. I quit in April of…

Thanks for your input everybody. I did find some exercises on youtube. Good luck in your continuing quest.

Thanks everybody who responded. I think I'm gonna go for it as soon as I figure out how I'm gonna haul it :wink:

This sight has been useful to me. I checked out velveeta mac n cheese last night and was stunned by how many calories.... Logging your food really does make you more aware. I think you already have had an amazing weight loss. I weigh about 259. My ticker says I've lost 8 pounds but really more like 30. Keep up the good…

Hi. I'm 48 and joined last Summer. About a week after I joined my brother almost died from Mrsa in his blood, but I stayed strong and kept counting the calories. then about 2 weeks later my 20 year old son was in a bad wreck, and I ended up in rehab with him all summer and GAINED 20 pounds. Been back off and on since then.…

Just TB? Awesome. LMAO when I read this. I love it when the right words come out of my mouth and leave my friends speechless, and I don't even know what I've done. Great advice ;)

I'm not the only overweight staff member at my school but prolly the MOST. I was blessed with a stand-up comedian personality so the high schoolers I work with like me for who I am. I may be the poster child for "fat people can be loved." I understand the paranoia though. I have even thought about WHEN the weight is gone…

Oh to be everybody's perception of perfection. What bliss. NOT. Everybody is wired differently and react to impulses in their own way. When I am stressed, I sleep. It makes everybody crazy. I love food dammit. Don't judge me for it just be glad you're not me!!

I have been chubby, thin, and obese. As a fat person only true gentlemen and kind people care to go out of their way for you. I seriously do get treated like I'm invisible a LOT. If I go buy heavy parts for my husband's farm or buy a heavy purchase from Lowe's, 9/10 the salesperson won't even offer to get a man to help me,…

Awwwwwww. He thinks you're beautiful. It's like when I was a lil kid and couldn't stop staring at my new shoes (dint get those very often). Give it time and maybe he'll slow down or you'll start to like it ;)

I'm really sorry that happened to you. People can be so flipping mean and can think they're so funny when they're drunk, and HE better watch it cause WE all know alcohol has a LOT of calories! I have an elderly friend who thinks it's okay to talk about my weight every time I see her. When she met my regular-sized sister,…

I laughed out loud. I like your style. Maybe that's why I popped in too. But, YOU, you can put it in words :) Noice.

OMG. I was so clueless too. It was a wonderful bliss until I inflated to an undesirable size. I figure before I started counting calories I was prolly eating 2-3 times too much. I figure someday my cravings will subside and I will be on auto-pilot for the healthy food choices. If not, I hope to get stranded on a tropical…

smelling these hidden things is nice too and I like to tease my mouth and play choo-choo like I'm feeding a toddler but never, never open the train's tunnel cuz that is wrong, wrong, wrong because that lets the calorie monster out and before I know it I turn that tunnel into a carb storage unit that expands at will on…

I think our outlooks may be related!!

You cracked me up, and I crack myself up. My sister is the one who wonders where the heck I came from. By the way, we're not THAT

I don't have a video game system but thanks for the suggestions. The ground coffee suggestion would be excellent if I drank coffee and had any in the house...the smell of coffee nauseates me :) Thanks for your time :)

Good luck to you. Stay healthy!!

and here I thought I was the Lone Ranger. Ha.

Definitely not just you!!! :( I wish I could help you out with that, but I definitely have the same problem (90 pounds to lose :( and HUNGRY). Best of luck to you (us)!
