I am like your Dorthy, I am 41 two grown kids with only a few pounds to loose, honestly I really on need to get my body fat % down and build some lean muscel. Everytime I get on the scale it makes me sick, because it is not moving, I too have to stay the heck away from it and just go by how I feel and how I look to myself.…

Hey from Louisiana- (Lazay-Lay Bon-Tom Roulay) means-- Let the good times roll

Good set up Jim...That is the way i should be, that way there is never any issues with cleaning...it so easy when pp compromise] I clean the bathrooms and the kitchen (including dishes and dishwasher)....also responsible for taking out garbage and maintaining the pool and cutting the lawn. She does the laundry for the…

I don't argue about it anymore...I know it ticks US off....but try to work it out, even if you have to give a little more than him..Think about it is it worth it...Don't get me wrong..don't be his slave, but there must be a happy middle somewhere....

[too funny tyler...I did think it was a gay thing at first...no offense neverstray...but until you read the whole story that is what it sounded like at first.....you gotta laugh....] Just break up. [/quote]

Hey neverstray....once you tell him and its over and he is not bothering you anymore....you will be relieved....

I agree w/ corn63...Ignoring him makes you more of an *kitten*, life is tuff and if you can't help him, that is ok, but be honest with him. The trueth hurts, but if the person is mature enough they will understand. The manly thing to do is bite the bullet and lay it out.

I never took any of that, but ask enough people that did and you will probably find out there are not shortcuts in life. You didn't gain the wieght in a few months so it won't stay of by taking a pill for a few months. Ladies and Gentleman..we are not dieting, we are living a healthier life..RIGHT....healthier habits will…

You are a pretty GIRLY... I'm almost a mom (Due in February), and I think I'm pretty... Hope this counts... [/quote] you are gurl! workin it! [/quote]

Agreed.. HOT MOMS...WE ROCK] Can we all agree to just call it hot moms. The word MILF makes me feel like Stifler's mom. [/quote]

I met my husband from online dating, sure you are going to worry. BUT..would you rather worry and never know...or worry until you meet him then find out he is into you. You will never know unless you go through with it.

oops sorry about the term...I take it back...don't want to ofend you...

TOOT TOOT! you are right If we don't toot ourselves who will.....BTY..@ fcp1234 nice arms... you must be a MILF & couger

[That pic is of you? and you are 52.. TOOT TOOT...I hope I look half as good at 52, I'm 10 years away from that] OK, I will play. I have two grown kids and I will be 52 in Feb. [/quote]

I use both, but actually I don't log my food diary or message on my phone ( haven't done it yet) I find it easier to go on my lap top.

It is true..fake it until you feel bettter...it really works. Make yourself do things, make yourself smile. It may take some time but before you relaize it you will be feeling better and didn't even know you were not faking anymore. Feeling sorry for yourself and being unmodivated will only make this feeling worst "you…

@Pickledginger......Don't hold out on us pickledginger, dish out some of that proffesional advise " I am listening" always interested what knowledgable people have to say.

First I will NEVER have the body that i really want, I was born with a genic skin disorder ....BUT......I can try to reach for that BODY as close as possible. My moviater is ME, I have always wanted a flat belly, lean thighs and tight everything, so i am trying to reach that. I never had a wieght problem and didn't wan to…

Do your own thing, she is wrong for saying the things she has, but she also has the right to give up on her diet and eat what she likes. Yes she should be encouraging and considerate, but you have to have the will power, bc she brings home fried chicken you have to choose not to eat it, its part of the process. None of us…

you can add me, I have not decided on 10 or 15 lbs, My BMI is normal, I just want to loose body fat, got more than enough of that to loose...lol..

Beautiful....Bravo! what an accomplishment, I'm sure everyone includiing MFP friends are proud of you....:happy:

[Came back with friends....Love it...] I was once on a 480 calorie diet. The weight came off. Diet ended. The weight came right back and brought friends. I understand wanting to get the weight off as soon as possible, but I have to recommend you do it in a way that you can live with long term so that you don't have to go…

not me, did not even have a craving. My boss handed me 2 pieces of candy, I brought it home for my son or husband to eat....

I am still working on pushups myself, but as a tip what i do is tricep DIPS. If you don't know how to do it you can look it up at ABC-of-fitness, they have some really helpful stuff on that site. Anyway it has helped me build stregth in my arms and I am able to (I think to do more pushups (man style) not girly...lol..girly…

I was told by an areobic instructer years ago tea is conseiderd as part of your water intake. I suppose "Mooseycakes" its all in how you look at it. Of course sugery drinks are not good for you, but in my opinion don't count sugery drinks if you are not trying to loose wieght. I have never drank 8 glasses of water a day, I…

Welcome to MFP! we are all here for the same purpose to either loose wieght, get in shape, stay healthy or all that I mentioned. We're here to support each other, Good luck on your journey to loose wieght.

I understand I am 5'1 and only allowed 1200, add me as a friend and you can look at my diary. You just have to be creative and spit your meals into 5 or 6 instead of 3.

Yoga is for both sexes

This may not be freaky and may not burn alot of calories but before I take my bath, while i am naked I do 10-15 pushups....Hey its better than not doing any pushups...lol..
