Yes, that's EXACTLY what I was doing- "trolling for guys" to pay attention to this question. How did you ever figure it out?

*sigh* Well, I guess that's-that! Padded bra collection here I come!!! (along with a few water push up pads). You know what sucks? When women lose weight we lose our GOOD features (Butt and Boobs), but when men lose weight their "feautre" just gets bigger. Cruel joke, God- real cruel.

what is it?

You look stunning!! amazing job.

Exactly! I'm so glad ya'll agree. The thing is people look at mye like I'm crazy ecause I don't allow myself chocolate, because if I eat it- I binge.... I'm so overweight- I can't afford that. I'm not healthy. My body can't afford any more trans fat, cholesterol or "unnatural" and "unhealthy "calories For example, those…

LOL @ comment above.

You look FANTASTIC. You're last picture is great, and you look beautiful! That's so awesome to lose 75 lbs, keep it up :)

I'm curious, too. Wish I could answer it for you. Some people swear by them, others say no need.

the three day cleanse.

What's melba toast?

personally- I don't believe in the surgery- but each person is different. The way I look at it is: with the surgery, it'sjust a "tool" (I was scheduled for it- I didn't show up.) Anyway, it's just a tool to help you eat like you should be anyway. It's no different than if you started RIGHT now. If you made a promise to…

Buy items specifically for you, and hide your portion. I know this sounds extreme, but when my mom lived with me, she almost ate me out of house and home! I had to hide things. and yes, frozen meals are ok once in a while, but theyre so high in sodium.

Thanks ladies!

Do NOT give up. I'm right there with ya. My scale hasn't moved at all, and i was up a lb yesterday..... How often are you weighing yourself? I've been weighing everyday, and I'm finding that I can't do that- I HAVE to do it once a week caus my weight fluctuates like crazy. it could be water weight? Have you been eating a…

very rarely. Personally, 'bad' foods for me are trigger foods, and I'm not able to portion myself with trigger foods yet, so I don't even bother with them. My biggest "bad" food is popcorn (100 calorie one), but thats about it.

I have it and prefer it over any other method (MFP, Heart rate monitor, etc.)- from what i've read its much more accurate than both of those. I don't use the MFP tool because it's never right for me. it always says I burn WAY more than I do. i don't trust it. I love it.

LMAO @ "ugly butt shaper shoes"- so true! but im glad they work! I'm thinking about getting a pair, too.

Everyone does this differently, as you'll see. Personally, I never eat my work out cals. To me (and I might be wrong- I'm not a scientist), but if I'm eating back my work out calories- why bother to work out? To me, it just creates more of a deficiency. Also, I've tried eating them back and my weight loss went downt the…

Excellent post.

underwear that keep falling off is actually one of the ways I judge how much I lose around my ab and lower stomach.... :) I love buying smaller underwear! (yay for TMI! )

Thanks ladies. I started on Strattera but it made me into a zombie. I actually fell asleep AT work and didn't know where I was when I woke up. It was awful. i'm glad its working for you! i wish I could have stayed on it. vyvanse seems to be working well, i'm just worried about getting the cals in.

bump. No one has replied yet, so I will :) Getting out of that mindset is hard (as we both know)- there's really no way to get out of it except just to "do it". I know, it sounds ridiculous- but really, what else is there? you either do it, or don't. You need to tell yourself that you KNOW that the pizza is bad for you,…

i agree. I did 15 min of eliptical today and it said i burned 290 calories!! i changed it, but can you imagine if I ate back those calories when in reality I only burned 150?

yeah. I def have 75+ lbs to lose, so that works for me!

LOL @ the bunny.

awesome! thanks, i'll check it out!!

I'm in!!!

bump. anyone?

Count me in!!! (hopefully I live to tell the weekly tale....) :-)

I also have bad left wrist with arthritist so I can't put much weight on it or do things like push ups ... would that be an issue. basically i can't put direct weight on my palm (especially not 280 lbs of weight)
