I definately have days that I allow myself to eat anything I want but when i look back at my diary later I find that I dont typically go that far off track... my carb count will be a little high but generally speaking I dont go far above my calorie goals.

When I had my child now 2 I seriously considered getting one...not because isdidn't want to watch her but because it only takes a second of looking the other way for someone to snatch her...now that she is 2 I still think about it if I am ever. in a situation where we have to go to the airport or someplace like that...I…

My problem growing up was the exact opposite, yes I was also constantly told I was fat but rather than unhealthy food being around all that there was was healthy food...at 12 years old I was 5'5" and 125lbs...not fat, not small no but not fat...when I looked at your profile picture I saw a beautiful girl...if you are…

You can do it...one day at a time..set small reachable goals...when I look at where I want to be I realize that I've not been there since I was 14...35 years ago it doesn't seem possible.....but if I focus on a 10 lb goal I know I can do it...

I just got a couple of bigger shirts...when I got pregnant I weighed 330 and the day I delivered I weighed 330... I lost down to 310 during my pregnancy...one of the great things about being big and pregnant you will probably loose weight. I'm sure you have heard of the HCG diet... while you are pregnant your body will be…

There is a site I went to that asked for your gender and height and age... it gives a real goal based on what other people feel comfortable at ...that's all I want not to be the biggest kid on the block anymore...

I generally refer to them as spirits... I tend to think of ghosts as spirits with mischievous or evil intentions.

We are truly blessed to live in the times that we do....embrace your gifts for what they are...there was a time not so long ago when to live "outed" was not possible those who did were living on borrowed time...I personally have never made it past 34 and many times not that old...I find it interesting to see what life's…

Cute...very cute...yes I can hear do I always choose to answer ...no....actually I block a lot more than I let through...I have heard more than I wanted at times...as with all things the louder the voice/thought the harder it is to ignore..

Absolutely, do I have telekinetic abilities. No

I came back because my mother needed a guide...though she is my mother and physically older than me she is a very young spirit..when we are not earth bound our spirits travel...when we see someone who can guide us in an aspect of our spiritual development or someone who needs guidance we are drawn to them.

When the time is right you will reenter this world...as your spirit gets older you will begin to remember things from your past lives...the more lives you have lived the stronger your spirit....in each lifetime we are meant to learn and to guide...the lessons that are learned in life are not for this life alone.. To answer…

Love this and wish I had been it when I started... great info here...though I have actually had exercise put me into a net negative. That's probably not healthy. Anyone in need of friends I am here.

I have done the Atkins diet and lost a ton of weight... however having grown up in an Italian household I find I miss the pasta. I always end up gaining back... I do know a lot of people who were more successful than I long term. Bottom line find what works for your body and your lifestyle. There is no 1 diet that works…

Love avacado. Really thought that was one I had to give up until I was having trouble getting to my daily calorie goal. Raw is the only way I have ever eaten them if someone could let me know some ideas for cooking them that would be so great.

congratulations any weight change can be a challenge. Society tells us what we should look like and weigh. When there is a medical reason for it it can be even more of a challenge. I absolutely understand the frustration that comes from having to explain why you look the way you do or weigh what you do. When you are too…
