Feel free to add me! I will be turning 42 in a couple weeks and I have a 17 yr old, 15 yr old and a 4 yr old. I am currently weighing in at 259, but I started at well over 300 a couple years ago. I have been an emotional eater my whole life. I still am, but I am getting better day by day. I definitely don't have all the…

I have a bodymedia arm band and I love it! It has really opened my eyes to the amount of calories I burn (or don't burn). I don't have a fitbit, so I can't help you with a comparison.

Thanks!

Sounds yummy!! Thanks!

I can absolutely relate! Breaking that cycle will be hard, but not impossible if you take it one step at a time :smile: . Feel free to add me!

As long as it isn't Daryl, I will be fine with whomever they choose...lol :-) Though I would be sad to see Carol or Carl go as well as Glenn. I think Maggie's days are numbered though. She seems like the next logical "main character" choice that would tip the group as a whole over the edge when she was to die and throw…

I had to put my scale away. Literally, had to put it on the top shelf of my closet and I only bring it out once a month on the first of every month. I was weighing myself all the time and it was literally making me crazy. It would depend on what the scale said every morning as to whether or not I had a good day: scale…

Michael Pollan's book In Defense of Food. Really opened my eyes about some of the foods I was eating.

I am a SAHM of a 17 yr old, 15 yr old and a 4 yr old. Yep...never say never...lol. My husband also works night shift and spends the day sleeping, so most of my conversations are with teenagers (who know everything) and a toddler (who also knows everything)..lol. I have alot to lose, 132lbs to be exact. Please feel free to…

The weight loss industry is just that: A multi-billion dollar industy that will tell you what ever you want to hear about losing weight. You want to eat carbs? You will find a ton of Dr's and authors selling their plan. You want to give up carbs? Same thing. Looking for a quick fix? Again, you can find a ton of pills,…

Used to just try and work out/walk at home, but found it way too easy for me to come up with an excuse not to do it, whether it was the pile of dishes to wash, the pile of laundry to fold or just a good show on TV. So I joined our local YMCA the end of December. They have free child care and tons of programs for my 4 year…

If I did the numbers correctly, my 20% below TDEE would be 2199. That is such a scary number, but I have been struggling to lose 1-2lbs per month for a really long time now. Some months I would barely lose 1/2 a lb. Going to give it a try...goodness knows I have definitely tried everything else :-)
