^^^ this... pretty much the same thing I tell people when they ask me if I'm getting one.

ditto stef..it's what works for me too :)

I drink coffee and alternate it with half water/half Ice Cascades or fareway water coolers ( made with splenda) 0 calories. I can't force myself to drink plain water it has to be flavored with something. I also got a pitcher and will take frozen fruit ..put it in the bottom, fill to cover fruit with water and then fill the…

LOL -- when I hit it-- I made a new goal..then when I hit that. I SHOPPED. Now I've set just a mini goal ..just to see if I can get there. I figure then I will have about a 7 lb comfort zone.

I put on the size 8 office attire in the morning that 6 months ago I wasn't wearing -- (size 16-17)...that's enough to keep me motivated. I don't want to go back there. I feel so much better now. Now I'm almost in a habit of what I eat during the day so it's become my new normal. I do "splurge" maybe once a month ...then…

my body has learned to tell me when it's hungry. I have learned what my day can look like and still maintain. I don't pay attention to the days I exercise and one of the sites tells me I can eat a gazillion more calories. I eat when I am hungry and that's it. ( ok except for my popcorn at night..that's habit but a healthy…

go crazy and experiment with different spices...MOST of them are low calorie. I really like sea salt and cracked pepper on mine.

they lost me at "never"

unless you are going to eat everything organic -- there really isn't much of a point. ALL vegetables / fruit are loaded with chemicals that are known to cause cancer. See those cool designs in the sky? Those are chemtrails and unless I'm mistaken the organic grass fed cows are out in pastures where the chemicals those…

love my tattoos ..have never regretted any of them and am designing my next one.

detention poster girl .. I know you look at my pic now and don't believe it. I spent more time in detention than out :( I hated school and all it stood for

oh yeah American Horror Story -- got sucked into that one too...and just when I thought it couldn't get any more twisted and demented...OH yes the next season proved me wrong. But just like a train wreck -- can't stop watching.

Gilmore Girls Big Bang Theory True Blood Vampire Diaries Parenthood ( just now on season 4 and don't like the episode I am watching right now)

Fleetwood Mac -- BEST FREAKIN CONCERT EVER Rod Stewart Skillet (met) Bon Jovi (met) Train (met) I've been to dozens more...these just rank up on my BEST

My breakfast every morning ..cuz it works for me. 1/4 cup of perfect portions maple oatmeal ( mixed with water to taste and nuked until consistency desired) 1 packet of splenda 1 tablespoon of perfect accents cranberry / almonds and COFFEE!!! I have that before I leave for work and that holds me a good 4 hours. LOL I'm a…

the single digit size jeans and office attire I am in now.... started out in july in size 17's and xl ...now wearing size 8 and smalls in tops -- yep that's my motivation -- that and skinny jeans and knee high boots! WooT!

<---- this is me 50 years old and 5'2 last time I was measured. I'm sure I'm shrinking. I used to be like 5'4. BAH! Anyhow I started July 5th 2012 at 167 and am now at 131.6 . (today's weigh in)

my breakfast always consists of quaker perfect portions oatmeal ( 1/4 cup with 1/4 cup water) nuked...added 1 packet of splenda and 1 tablespoon of dried fruit or a 1/3 of a banana ( the rest to be eaten during another time of the day) and COFFEE -- in my world it's all about the coffee lunch -- I'm pretty regular with…

yes you can and you can be even more hot at 50 :)

I love those thin things and omg that little sandwich thing you just described sounds delicious. I'm headed to the store today to grab that stuff!!!

^^^ this -- I've lost 34 lbs and am usually eating a bag of popcorn right before bed while I'm journaling. Hasn't hurt me since. I know people who eat a meal before bed due to shifts at work and it doesn't seem to bother their weight loss. A meal wouldn't work for me because then I couldn't sleep...but a light snack like…

I dont' log anything -- I let the fitbit do it. I think that "normal" activity is already factored in so some may be adding a calorie burn that is already being counted. I'd rather error in a low burn estimate than over estimating.

single digit size pants ( never EVER worn them ..even in middle school I was in double digits with the word "husky" added behind it for more of a self ego boost NOT) size small shirts and sweaters skinny jeans and knee high boots

thank you -- me too . And skinny and curvy have such broad definitions depending on who you ask. I love "MY" curves.

gulp that's like porn right there.

ditto -- I notice the cold now. I refuse to turn the heat up in the house just cuz I like to be curled up under blankets...but now it takes more blankets to stay warm. bye bye insulation

zhayne got kicked out for placing boxes of condoms in random shoppers carts!

^^ this...she is one of my idols..and just proof that you don't have to be pencil thin to be fit and hot!

for the people who don't like space invaders....this was an idea given to me by a clerk. Keep your cart behind you. Unload it from that angle..that keeps the neck breathers at a carts distance. It's BRILLIANT and works every time.

in case it hasn't been mentioned... 1. blue tooth and people who are in their own little world while trying to look important with that thing stuck up to their ear...if you are that friggin important -- stay at the office. 2. pajama wearers....seriously? if you can't take time to get dressed -- stay home and frankly this…
