Turkey breast sandwhich on light multi-grain bread. Realllyyyy trying to avoid the donuts my co worker brought in today!

Start taking measurements. Sometimes my scale number does not go down, but my measurements do!

"Haven't bought/ worn the "sexy" bra and panty sets that can't handle my DD's." THIS! It's like they make the lingerie bigger but they forget to add more support!

"one day I hope that I can learn to love your body the way I love the rest of you". I have never dated someone curvy before and it is not easy for me", I think you should get back down to your college weight" , Ï find it hard to touch you because I do not like your body",I bet you weigh as much as me and I am 6 foot 4". I…

I once brought this up to my close guy friend a few years ago, saying its crazy how people think a male/female cant be friends without one person feeling more. I said to him "look at us! we're friends and we dont want to sleep together" to which he replied "who said i dont want to sleep with you???" Wake up call LOL. We…

Just curious how is the half and half calorie wise compared to the coffee mate? I could definitely make the switch to half and half if its less in calories/fat.

agreed - I measure more than I weigh myself and I notice a difference from the scale to the inches.

Sabotage would be more like pouring regular soda into your diet soda bottle or mixing lard into your dinner without you realizing. She's not sabotaging you - she wants you to do it her way. That's a control issue. There is nothing much you can do other than say i'm doing this my way. If you dont respect that then you won't…

I dont exercise at all and i've lost 14 pounds.

I do this all the time. He isn't on a diet so I like baking for him and buying him things I know he likes.

I eat a bowl of Special K on the weekends for breakfast and it hasn't hindered me at all.

I was going to say "not sure how God is supposed to help after her brother got stabbed...a little intervention there would have been nice!" If you need to take today to yourself, take it. Allow yourself to be a little down, but make a promise that tomorrow, you will be up - at the gym, at therapy. One step at a time.

The fact that they put "crash diet" right on the cover is ridiculous.

Not at all.

Awareness - great word for helping get through the moment. That's just what i was trying to say. Now that i'm aware that this is a problem, I can get through it.

Anxiety issues here! I actually did go on medication for 6 months and it helped me A LOT. I was able to think clearly. I decided to go off it after the 6 months because I didnt want to spend my life on meds. Now, I still have anxiety about things but i'm able to rationanlize my thoughts because I KNOW it's a condition that…

**Also forgot - I made my own invitations. Bought a kit from walmart and some ribbon. Done. They were great!

Don't think for a second the network didn't know what they were doing with this. Her response was crafted in advance. From what I read I thought a man called in and called her fat and she responded live. Not so.

I'm the opposite. I usually chose the HIGHEST option because i'm so freaking nervous about going over my calories. But I feel bloated lately, I feel like i'm plateau-ing and i'm not sure why. No I don't have a food scale (dont have the money right now for any spending) but I lost 11 pounds estimating (and over-estimating…

I was totally prepared to write "cheesecake!" for this post...LOL

You are not a mess! Keep this in mind - every successful day that you have is more weight loss. Your numbers will only go down from here so look forward to that! Feel good about what you are doing because you are now on the right track. Tips? LOG LOG LOG. Keep writing when you need support. Trade "this" (junk food) for…

Thank you everyone! I feel a lot better. I'll keep drinking that water and having potassium.

Oh! Thanks! I was panicking that they were "super high".

Regardless of what the negative nancy's say on here - thanks for posting. Definitely encourages a conversation (though I can do without the RAWRRRR YOUR WRONG!!!! posts). It's nice to read different perspectives and helpful hints on how to shake things up.

I think the people who are saying it's rude are completely ridiculous. What are you supposed to do? Sit and wait in the car until everyone is done eating? Come on. It was a social event, for your daughter. Why should you force yourself to eat or buy something you don't want? You did this for her and that's what is…

The only thing that ever worked for me to cure acne was Accutane. Proactive is a waste of money - it has the same things in it as over the counter acne cream, they just have a great marketing campaign so they drive the price up (sorry I hate that proactive preys on people with acne because they have celebrity endorsments…

Married - working full time - tons of bills = story of my life! I feel you! What I learned to do is make better choices without feeling deprived. My husband loves burger king and wendys and we both work full time so that for us is dinner a lot. So I did my research, I wrote down a few meals from each place that will keep…

Wow! Fantastic! SO motivating

Love this thread! And WOW you look amazing!!!
