Haven't read every post so I'm not sure if these have been mentioned already. My cult favorites would definitely have to be Clue, Empire Records, The Craft, anything Mel Brooks. I could probably keep going if I really thought it about :smile:

This has already been said, but you definitely need to find another doctor. No doctor should ever label someone or make them feel badly about anything... EVER. I had a sports medicine doctor tell me once that my knees hurt because I was overweight and that I should stop eating. When I told him that the weight gain was due…

I was going to say the same thing.

Agreed.

I eat low carb since my fiance is diabetic. We never have sweets in the house and only buy lower carb (rye, pumpernickel) bread... when we eat bread. I've found that eating low carb isn't that hard once you know what to look for. Most people think it's just candy and soda, but there is sugar in everything. Reading labels…

Just sent you a friend request! There's no shame in having to start over. I think most people can say "been there, done that." What I've discovered this time that seems to be working is that I stay away from the word "diet". It's an evil word. Instead, I just say "lifestyle change" because that's what it is. I'm not…

Agree 100%. I weigh myself once a week, but try not to focus so much on what the scale itself says. If my clothes feel looser then I know I'm doing something right.

LMFAO!!! This is seriously hysterical. Thanks for the laugh everyone :laugh: :bigsmile: :wink:

Congrats! That's amazing :happy:

Water and hot tea work best for me. I can't have caffeine, so no soda or coffee for me.

Thanks NeuroticVirgo! That was really really interesting. I wish I didn't see so much of myself in every single one of those though :embarassed:

I got rid of about half of my wardrobe a few months ago. I lost about 30lbs 3 years ago and never got rid of anything. I'm a big pack rat and I don't like to get rid of tshirts and things that I've had for a while or that have sentimental value, but I never wear them. So I just took those and put them away somewhere.…

I get bored with salads after a while, but when I do eat them I'm a big fan of cesar dressing. I usually get Ken's cuz it's not creamy and very low in calories and fat. I'll usually just do that with romaine lettuce, cucumber and maybe some tuna or chicken. But, again, I get wicked bored after a while and need to get away…

Omg, I totally know what you mean. People at work will cook food and I can totally tell by the smell what it is... even if they're rooms away.

WOW! That's amazing. Congratulations on your weightless (and your upcoming wedding). You can reach that goal. You've already come so far.

Wow. Good luck with everything. This is an extremely supportive environment, so you will definitely find the help you need :flowerforyou:

The same thing happened to me last night. I ate at this tiny place and there was no way I was going to be able to look up their nutrition. So I just came on here and looked in the database for something similar to what I ate. It's never going to be exact but it can give you a good ballpark.

Awesome idea! I never really thought about that before

Good job! :flowerforyou:

Wow! That's awesome. Thanks for posting! :)

I like it with everything. I'll use it in a wrap with chicken and some veggies. If you can find a grocery store that sells falafel (or see if you can make your own), that's the best. I spent 2 weeks in Israel a couple years ago and practically live on hummus!

My Grandpa Bernard Benjamin Wolfson My "Puppy Sid" Sidney Lawrence Craft My best friend's twin brothers Nathanial and Justin Clough. Justin was wounded and got marine of the year a few years back. And countless other people I've known from high school and through my mom. Thank you for serving.

Miller Lite and Bud Light are too too bad. Mich Ultra is always a good choice too (low carb). I've never tried MGD64, but my boyfriend says it's not too bad. You're always safe with any light beer.

Welcome! I know what it feels like to feel trapped in your own body. A girl I know was pigging out in front of me one day and just goes, "This is what happens when you're a fat girl trapped inside a skinny girl's body." My repsonse to her was, "I'm a skinny girl trapped inside a fat girl's body." I've been up and down and…

OMG these sound so good. I'm such a sweet fanatic and I'm always looking for things :)

Thanks everyone. It's nice to know I'm not alone in this :)
