  • I absolutely agree with CheveuxNoirs, I had the LAVH and experienced just about every bad outcome. And that was following Doctor's orders. Are you taking NSAIDS?? Have you experienced prolonged or excessive bruising? Are you having regular BM's . Sorry for being so explicit, but Bowel shut- down is not only one of THE Most…
  • Thanks!! How do you list it on MFP??? As aerobics??
  • This is the same guy that does the insanity workout.
  • Born and raised in Raleigh, NC. Now live in Durham. Been on here since 09/12. Love it!
  • 68. We live on the second floor of a two story apartment. We actually run the AC most of the Winter. We keep it at 74 in the summer. Our downstairs neighbors are from Nigeria. They hate cold. We can tell!!!!!!
  • The one thing I gave up completely to lose weight, and has really worked for me is EXCUSES. Once you quit those the weight comes off.
  • I haven't noticed this myself either. I LOVE Okra, but I only eat it when its cooked in unhealthy ways. I love it fried, and stewed with crowder peas, seasoned with pork.
  • Sometimes it is a matter of accepting one's self warts, scars and all. Whatever horrors you have locked inside your mind need to be released to someone you can trust. Hopefully a mental health professional. Whatever happened to you that caused this tremendous pain you are holding, you need to let it out. Go to your city's/…

  • Well, YOU can choose not to believe in Starvation Mode, but it looks like your body does believe in it. Can you try adding more fruit and vegetables to your diet? or just protein?
  • I know a lot of people like that. Yes, very annoying. I work with people young enough to be my biological children. They constantly say, OH I am sooo old! Here I am creaking and cracklin when I walk, Finding grey in my hair and have a niece and nephew older than them! Plus the same kiddos talk about how chubbo they are.…
  • This is super silly. Yesterday I got on a real outside bike and rode it for the first time after 19 years of being deathly afraid of trying again. Nineteen years ago I was hit by a truck on a bike and was afraid to ride again. I overcame my fear and did it. This is a huge victory for me. @ cldaughtry (Copied) That is…
  • Also thought I would mention, I was up to almost 2 packs a day. Had smoked for over 30 years.
  • I gather you are in the UK. I am in the states, But I imagine you can get e-cigs there. I bought one for when the urge to smoke was so bad i found myself stuffing food in my mouth. I have been tobacco free since 07/28/12. I am losing weight and smoke free! never thought it would happen. You could try going to a store that…
  • I knew I was overweight. I knew my "fat" close were tight. But when I got on the scale and saw how close I was to 200lbs! I said oh HELL NO! This is gonna change, and now!
  • I have one and I love it! mine is the TC5000. You can lock the trendles and use it like a treadmill, or unlock it use it as a stepper at your own speed. or turn the speed to where you are comfortable and use it as a treadclimber. sort of eliptical. Warning though. The workout on the Treadclimber is much more than you get…
  • I was in the stoners/headbangers/trouble makers group. I used to hang in the smokers area, pick up a group of "friends" and skip class until school let out. Now, 26 years later, I am a tee- total er. I pretty much follow rules, and get pissy with those that don't. lol So, No, Not the same at all.
  • I love it! You chose well. You are beautiful and the dress looks fantastic on you. I agree with others, this dress was made for you. I bet your groom will cry.( happy tears)
  • never mind. I googled it. lol
  • Please somebody tell me what PB2 is!
  • Great share! I truly needed this today. Wish I had been with you seeing the elderly woman! what an awesome motivator.
  • Ask your dr if the drug you're on can be taken twice a day. I take double the Average dose, AND I take that twice daily. So i am taking 4 times what most people are prescribed. It works for me as long as I don't screw up and eat certain foods. Yes, even with all the PPI's I still have trigger foods and breakthrough. Rest…
  • I don't know if this will get censored because the moderators think I'm advertising but, here goes. I use a site called nuts.com. They have all kinds of healthy snacks. Nuts, dried fruit, trail mix, and much much more. I love them! I eat something from there every day.
  • My binge food is M&Ms. Can't keep em in the house. There is NO stopping me! lol
  • Hi, I didn't read all the pages, but what I read has blown my mind. I am 5'7 and have small frame. Long legs, short, thick waist, big hips and butt and big boobs skinny arms. Totally out of proportion. I weigh around 187 and barely fit in 18s. Size 20 are okay loose in some areas fit in others. I want to get to 135/…
  • I too have a fitbit. I just got mine on Thursday. There is a lot to learn about syncing with MFP and so on. (at least for me, completely computer illiterate.) Otherwise, I absolutely love it. Very motivating. I tried to track sleep, but I think you have to buy the premium package to do that. I just bought the fitbit itself…
  • Thanks for all the replies.
  • :flowerforyou: Thanks
  • Macro setting? Obviously I haven't done anything with it. I am not sure what it is or how to make adjustments, If they are even ness.
  • That is soo awesome! I quit myself 7weeks ago today. I used patches then the e-cig. I am all done with tobacco. I feel so free! Like with you, the E-cig really helped. I am not using it or the patches anymore, I have been done with both over a week now. :happy:
