  • After losing 100 pounds and starting with a EE cup, you can imaging the skin bags. I took the plunge, had a total revision with implants and have never looked back. Mine are very natural, fit my body size well and I was rejuvenated by how I felt. It was totally worth it! Most people don't have a clue they are fake, but it…
  • I sing in cover bands and I have worn my hrm to rehearsal and to gigs and it works out to be the same calories as the Music Playing -Guitar that is listed. So I took that and created my own to use. Since I am the lead singer, I break out a sweat on stage, constant movement and huge use of core muscles. I don't count any…
  • Thanks for the feedback, Im open for more friends and support if anyone wants it. I did have my hormones tested, its official and now my Dr. finally gave me another hormone to take with the birth control pills to at least help taper the hot flashes. Nothing worse than getting on the treadmill, already being sweaty and…
  • Wow, this is an amazing thread. i was diagnosed with Hashimoto's over 10 years ago although my T3 and T4 and TSH were in normal range, my titers were not. I have an enlarged thyroid and every Dr I ever saw thought I had thyroid issues but i never tested positive. once they finally diagnosed me they also noticed a spot on…
  • Please include me, I need to boost.
  • Hey, It looks like we are in the same slowly sinking boat. I had three surgeries in a year and am still trying to get back on track. I am determined to not let this get away with me, so if you want a friend, add me. We can do it together. I use my phone a good portion of the time, but I do check in and see how my friends…
  • Have had a rough year on here and have not been consistent enough after having a really awesome successful year on here (lost 32 pounds), so here goes year 3 where I pick up the pieces and lose the 10 pounds that I have picked up and lose the additional 10 that I didn't get the first time. So 20 pounds is really my whole…
  • I just sent my email. I really need a challenge to get started on something. I have a goal for fitness this year and a trip in May to get ready for.
  • Love mine!!!!!!!! Had gigantic ones my whole life, after losing weight they were not so attractive and I worked with my surgeon to bring them back to the best they could be and still look natural. I couldn't be happier. My husband is totally happy, my self esteem is great and no they are not huge, but they are just right…
  • I am starting today for the rest of the month. Do you have a group set up to track this? I havent done a challenge in months, but I need one.

  • I think I said that like 10 times today....Slowest day in a long time. Its finally after 5pm here in CA and I'm heading home to relax!
  • That is just such great news and a wonderful achievement! You can get there, even if it's slower that before. Keep up the great effort! Pat yourself on the back and celebrate with a new fingernail polish or a massage!
  • Just keep at it. Some of those nagging areas are the last to go, but they do go!
  • I agree, I actually am commenting on the fact that they logged their food and completed a diary...I do not judge others, I offer support for their daily activities. I am not a nutritionist and even though I know what is good for me, I am not qualified to give opinions on others diaries.

We are here to help support and maybe make you smile from time to time. Go get 'em tiger. You can be successful!
  • Thanks for those suggestions. Ever since having surgery this year, my hair is getting worse. I am contemplating chopping it off (its mid back) and letting it grow back in, but then Im afraid it wont grow. Its really thin now.
  • My very own Golf Clubs (I've been using hand me downs)! Running shoes to start the C25K with my hubby....so excited!
  • Actually I came here Dec 2010 to lose as much weight as I could before surgery in May. I lost 36 pounds...I have been maintaining that loss ever since. I go up and down 2-3 pounds consistently. I would like to lose 10 more pounds, but I am happy where I am, so I just keep doing this until I decide to put more effort into…
  • I just ordered a bakeware set from QVC that is metal but has the handles and the bottom covered in the latex bakeware stuff. Apparently its dishwasher and microwave safe. It can go right from the oven to the counter because the latex acts as a trivet.
  • QOTD 11/20/11 - Do you take supplements on a daily basis? Do you find it helps or hinders your weight lose goal? Final answer....Yes, I take Calcium, Iron and Vitamin K and D. I Could not do this without it. If I don't take these, my energy and health go out the window and I would not have the ability to exercise. Plus if…
  • QOTD 11/17/11 - Please share with the group a funny joke, quote or embarassing story about dieting. Oh I am so bad with jokes. Here goes! DIET PILLS"I'm prescribing these pills for you," said the doctor to the overweight patient, who tipped the scales at about three hundred pounds. "I don't want you to swallow them. Just…
  • Wednesday Nov. 16 QOTD: Do you drink caffeinated beverages? Why or why not? Do you feel like it helps or hinders your weight loss or neither? I do, not because I like them, if there is a non caffeinated option, I do try to pick it. Since being diagnosed with diabetes ages ago, I had to give up a huge juice habit. At the…
  • QOTD 11-15 What was your goal at the start of this challenge and do you feel you've gotten there? My goal was to get under 150 ( i have been going up and down 5 pounds). No I don't feel I got there at all. This last 10 pounds has been rediculous to lose. Today I decided to take it back to basics and really try to keep my…
  • QOTD: 11/14/11 How do you feel now that you are losing those unwanted pounds? How is the weight loss changing your life? Well, I have been maintaining my weight loss since May (up or down a few pounds). It felt great getting to this point, and since I still want to lose some more, I find that I am a little frustrated and…
  • QOTD, Friday, November 11th: Are you currently having to deal with any saboteurs on your weight loss journey? Maybe a family member, friend or co-worker? If so, how are you handling the situation in a positive way? I actually have very good support. I am so glad that my best friend decided to join me in this journey and…
  • Piano, since I was 10, I both read music and write music, but I also play by ear. Keyboards/Synth 5 years, but After playing the piano for so long, I find it feel like cheating to only play portions of songs. I also sing (front a couple of cover bands and back-up vocals in the recording studio) I do have a guitar and bass,…
  • QOTD, Wednesday, November 9th: Recently MFP instituted groups, and I am actually finding it more inciting than I thought I would. What groups have you joined, if any? Please share the links for your groups with the rest of us! Well, I didn't know about the groups. So I guess I will have to check it out. Im still smarting…
