:flowerforyou: Way to go Taylor and Mary! Awesome jobs!! gained 2 lbs. But it is from all of the showchoir travels. I was in St. Clairsville Ohio, Southwestern Indiana, and Poca, WV, and our next trip will be in Teays Valley, Ohio. When these are done I will be eating better. I promise. With bad food comes bad cravings. -…

Lisa starting weight 222 goal in 30 days 210 I will have to post my inches tomorrow - I have them written down upstairs and I can't get them at the moment. I want to lose weight to feel better and to buy clothes from the misses section - not the women's section!

Hurricane, West Virginia! Yes there is a town named Hurricane - but we have no water near us. :)

I also have PCOS, insulin resistance, thyroid disease - you name it! I have a fourteen year old daughter. It took 6 years and three miscarriages before I got her. Had grapefruit size cysts and had to have a hysterectomy so no more children :( I also have a metabolic disorder that combined with everything else makes it very…

I am going to give up some of my tv time and read my Bible more. I am also going to read some of the books that I am behind on reading.

I have a bad back and get a massage every 2 weeks to work out my muscle kinks. I get them at my chiropractor's office - so I only have to pay for my copay for an hour massage.- It's nice!:happy:

I love my EA sports active 2. I have been trying to do it at least 4 times a week. I get a nice sweat everytime!:smile:

I love my link to facebook. I was unsure to do it in the first place, but am so glad that I did. I have several of my friends look and make comments for my diary goals and exercise. I love MFPs - it is the best thing around. It makes my facebook even better!~

I am in, I watch what I eat and exercise daily, but with my metabolic disorder it makes it hard to lose weight even with all that I am doing. I will shoot for 15 lbs. (I'd like to lose a total of 70).

When I have to eat fast food I usually get a "kids meal". The calories are more appropriate and it is more often than not plenty of food.

Hurricane, WV:wink:

Rachel Lee (14 year old) Her name means "beautiful lamb" We were hoping to have more, but it didn't work out. If we would've had a boy --his name would've been "Isaac Lee" which means --he laughs.

My knees crunch and swell also. Unfortunately - my knees are bad. Yours may be also. I would go get them checked. Do they hurt? Mine do often. I have arthritis in them. I've had arthroscopy on one, but it is back to where t was beforeI alreadyand the other one is just as bad. I am 45 and don't want knee replacements. Being…

I have the same trouble. I have been busting my butt exercising every day, and I've lost only 2 lbs in 55 days. Don't give up. Eventually you will see a difference. Don't forget to measure yourself. When the scale doesn't go down, the inches are disappearing. It helps to see those types of changes when we don't see the…

Sometimes I tend to sabotage myself because I am safe in my old habits. When I do good and start to get more attention, then the pressure is there to keep up with all of my work. This is hard, and No one is ever satisfied, so I always have to strive for more. Then I find myself re gaining or making excuses. I don't do this…

Thyroid stuff can be so frustrating. Believe me - I know. I have been dealing with it for over 14 years. It just makes us work twice as hard as anyone else to lose, but you can lose. Don't give up. It is totally worth it. Get to a dr. they can get you some medicine that will help you regulate your thyroid. Once it is…

Rachel Lee is my daughter's name. We were thinking of Isaac Lloyd if it was a boy.:smile:

I teach special kids too but I teach in high school. I have 9th through 12th self contained students. I love my job, but the bathroom thing is very frustrating at times. When I have Lots of water I have to go every 20 min. Our classes are 90 minutes in length - so this becomes a MAJOR problem. Thank goodness for friends…

I find that I get more veggies if I eat a lean cuisine for lunch. My co workers usually order out EVERY day - so I feel good about my healthy frozen meal. I also try to increase my fluids and look for the lower sodium choices.

i love all of those too. I also like the old Carmen from the Standard. Amy Grant's eary works are also awesome.

I missed it yesterday. I was so bummed. I thought it was 2 hrs - but the Prez. was on when I got home at 9. Was it a good episode? Who went home?

I would love the slow cooker pamphlet. teachawa1@gmail.com Thanks :happy:

Where in WV? I was born in the northern panhandle, but moved to Charleston, WV with my hubby.

I am from the beautiful state of West Virginia. :smile:

I made the 64 oz today! It took a holiday to get it done, but I did it!

I have thyroid issues and it makes it harder to lose weight. I struggle to lose a pound at a time. I watch my calories and always go to the gym. Losing weight is hard - no matter how much you have to lose. Just hang in there and the doc will be happy that you are making changes. 1 to 2 is a healthy amount. The slower you…

My favorite quotes are: "Don't tell me the sky is the limit - when there are footprints on the moon" "With God all things are possible"

I love Leslie Sansone! I am joining late so my goal is to walk 20 miles to the end of the month.:smile:

I would like to lose close to 70. I would love to be your buddy.:smile:
