What she said. I'm not married anymore, but my ex-MIL used to think that about me. She was right, I didn't want kids, but I'd discussed that with my husband at length before we got married and he was totally comfortable with it... he just never filled in his parents prior to us getting married, so they always thought it…

Relax... this isn't a linear process. There are TONS of things that can make your weight fluctuate several lbs within a single day. If your clothes are looser, you're making losses!

You'll be fine. Drive on :-)

Alternate.

Awesome story! Thanks for brightening my day!

Because I RUN!

Awesome job!!! Keep it up :-)

Nope. But i don't mind someone who looks "normal". Too fit is a little intimidating. I want someone who knows what they're talking about but also walks the walk. Edited to add: assuming we're talking about the traditional definition of "obese" here, and not the person who's super fit but fits into the obese BMI due to…

My car keys. No wait, that's not what you're talking about. A Chihuahua. That's good, actually... not a fan of yip-dogs ;-)

I agree with all of the above. I just had a friend who got married on June 2 and she had similar feelings. She'd lost some, but didn't get to her goal, and gained a few in the week leading up to the wedding. But, she still looked awesome on her wedding day. Her dress was gorgeous, her hair was perfect, the wedding…

Hard to know what her true intentions are. I'd tell her, personally.

No diet soda at work today.

How sacred is your friends list on MFP? Not. Do you track it offline? No. Do you review it often? Occasionally. Do you know the number of folks on it at any one time? No. Do you drop someone because they add a particular person that you do not get along with? No, but sometimes I don't reply to forums b/c I think they'll be…

Yeah... why is it that everyone is totally hyper about wiping down the cardio equipment, but no one bothers with the weight machines?? Weird.

Nice!

And that's why I spend a lot more time on MFP than FB these days! Ignore here, and delete her as a FEB friend, then block her. Use this incident for inspiration, but lose the weight for YOU or it won't stick! Good luck! All the best, Jen ** edited for spelling (stupid auto-correct).

Do they still make Tab?

Honeycrisp, hands down! but Fuji isn't bad either.

Yuk. NOT sexy to me.

I'm a huge Diet Dr. Pepper fan, but I dropped my consumption way back last week. Surprisingly, it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I was pretty tired, but not too grumpy. I just stopped buying 6 packs for home. I used to bring two 20 oz bottles to work every day... one for mid-morning, one for mid-afternoon. If I…

copying and printing NOW... I LOVE buffalo chicken!

I like PB&J for breakfast. If you want it warm, you could toast the bread... then the PB gets all yummy and gooey.

That's a sticky wicket. On the surface, sure, it looks like obesity shouldn't be a disability, but there is always a story behind the answers people write in those blanks. I work for the Army as a physical therapist, and aside for gross trauma, the leading factor that I see in who ends up being "disabled" and who doesn't…

Feel free to add me if you'd like. I'm here almost every day. Though I don't always have time to comment every day, I do respond as much as I can. I try to keep my comments positive, but I will call you out in a constructive way if I see behaviour that seems contrary to your goals (no congrats from me if you eat 500…

Nope. But maybe that's just me. I'm kind of hard to get along with apparently.

One of our front desk people / schedulers. She is not normal. She is a pathological liar and a total $!tch. She makes me want to pull my hair out on a daily basis. And she doesn't even work directly with or schedule for me. She can put our whole office into a frenzy when she tries. She is just not right. Rant over.

No... it's not too severe and I'm sure his suspension won't go the whole 15 years. I think it will make a difference, even if it's a small one. If one other person decides to put down the phone and just drive, that's something. He killed a person. He willfully decided to take a risk and he lost... so did both people in the…
