Sorry for the errors.

I have a cheat day once per week for about 3 months now and I am not one who believes in deprivation. My cheat day includes no exercise and eating something sweet ( normally). Sometimes I don't need a cheat day so I don't exercise. Having a once per week cheat day helps because normally I don't cheat or eat like I used to…

Well said.

Tape measure is better than scale.

Thank you.

Not my best week. I ate a lot of sugar and I will try to be better this week. SW 258 lbs LW 164 ??lbs CW 166.4 lbs GW 130 lbs

Start using a tape measure. Hope you continue to lose inches, not just lbs. I started losing in June, 2012, and am giving myself until 7/11/14 to reach my goal of 130 lbs. I use the tape measure to ward off discouragement when I plateau.

I will turn 60 in Sept but hope to reach my goal weight by July 11, 3014, so I figure I should try everything! SW: 258 lbs LW: 166.4 lbs CW: 166.8lbs GW: 130 lbs Sherry

I would start with sugar intake. I now use Stevia or try to have natural sugars from fruit. Stay away from fruit juices and soda. Good luck. This site is great. "Awareness precedes change.":flowerforyou:

It was probably the food. Try starting with a soft diet for about 3 days If you haven't had heavy food for while it will take some adjustment, or maybe it's your body's way of saying you don't need it, . . .ever "yeah"!

My goal weight is 130 lbs., but I've been stuck at 165-170 lbs for 3-4 months. Down from 265. Haven't sen 130 lbs since 1985. Was 160 lbs in 2004. I wear size 12s and 14 (most are too large). Goal is size 8. I have a small frame and am 5'2". :flowerforyou:

It is so hard to do! Good for you.

When my granddaughter was 3years old we lived in Arlington, Texas. Her preschool talked a lot about "healthy foods", and "healthy choices". She is 8 years old, skinny, and very active. She is and has been in an unhealthy food environment. I think education is the key, but you must start early.

You are awesome! Keep up the good work.

Great job.

Hang in there. Weigh yourself once per week. It works for me when I am able to do it. Remember muscle weighs more than fat. I've never done this workout but I workout 5-6 days per week. Also, being healthy is so much more important than what the scale says. I also get " stuck" every now and then. Measure yourself to make…

I'll be 60 soon, I have about another 50 to lose. This has not been a great week but I exercise to balance. Stay active and remember that the goal should be to get healthy.

You look great! Keep up the good work. :flowerforyou:

Yeah, yeah. :flowerforyou:

Thanks all. :flowerforyou:

:flowerforyou: Sharing them, thanks.:flowerforyou:

Gotta have tough skin to hang out around here. It is nice to be nice but remember, "PEOPLE ARE HUNGRY!!!". :flowerforyou:

If that's your attitude in life (in general) you shouldn't have any trouble at all.:flowerforyou:

Awesome. That's great news.

Those *kitten*! Expecting you to work instead of spending personal time on the computer. How dare they?:flowerforyou: But really sorry you lost your job. Choices!

It is my experience that people need you to be a certain way so they can feel good about themselves. Stay in touch with your body and your doctor. As long as you do this and feel good I wouldn't worry about it, but I would add some strength training if you haven't already.:flowerforyou: Don't ever stop exercising. It is so…

Not dating but if I did he would have to be 58-70 years old. I will be 58 this year.:flowerforyou: NO dates for me. I'm really happy right now. So that would make it -0, +12. Did the younger thing, doesn't work for me.:flowerforyou:
