I have pcos, and i can tell you for me the symptoms of it dissappear when my weight is closer to normal. I went ftom 220 to 156 and hot pregnant like the week i was in a healthy range. Gained 80 with that pregnancy. Lost about 40 of it in 2 years, and got pregnant again..i am 180 as of this morning, and instead of being…

I could easily undo 2 weeks of progress in one day because I am an over achiever like that. My logging is rarely as precise as a lot of people on here, but it is goid enough, and I am losing. Like if i steal a gold fish from my kids..i don't log it, but they often take bites of my stuff..i figure it evens out.

I brush my teeth with a really strong tooth paste, but i have ice cream..every single night.

Gum, or brush your teeth. For me food just doesn't taste good then, i also buy a really over powering tooth paste.

Stop buying them, or make just enough. I don't cook anymore than we are going to eat at a meal, or maybe enough for my husband to have left overs. I buy ice cream in individual packs, because i won't open a second one.

I am 180lbs. 5'5" and just upped mine to 1620 for 1lb a week loss. 1340 was 1.5, and i was over every day, and seeing red..psyched me out.

Don't eat

that I thought I didn't like skinny jeans and lingerie. I honestly *thought* they were ridiculous, but now I find myself thinking..I want all the things. Somehow I had convinced myself to dislike everything I knew wouldn't work. I still have about 40 more lbs to go, but clothed I now feel very body confidant,…

I have spent way too much time thinking about this question today, and I know all family dynamics are different, but I just cannot fathom 1. my mom caring one tiny little bit, especially since I was doing it for health reasons as opposed to..please move the Jelly to my night stand since I am now too fat to even walk to…

Regardless of how condescending a statement sounds to YOU, it is really the truth, and it really is that easy. IF we buy cosmic brownies, I cannot NOT eat them, I lack self control when it comes to those (And they are not even that good). When I whine about this to my husband he says "Just don't eat them" And then I want…

I had 2 slices yesterday at fazolis, and 2 breadsticks. It came in at 850 calories, i just ate around it part of what got me here is thinking that 5 pieces of pizza is normal..

I have also learned to just like cheese, or cheese and pineapple.

I use tortillas sometimes. .and bake them in my toaster oven. I can have 2 pretty good size ones for 400 calories. Pita is also a good one.

I think it is jard not to look at this without your own bias. At my own moms house, i would have put it up without asking, and i can't imagine even having to explain myself, and if one of my children asked me to do it, i would think nothing of it. Family helps each other. I didn't ask her to never buy it again..

Sure..vut 90 calories for 5? No way!!

I just googled, there are 10 calories per m and m..i can handle that. My bag is obviously on the skimpy side

I save room, every day. even if it is only 150 calories, also they make 40 calorie fudge pops, I suggest those to everyone..you get a lot of bang for 40 calories. 100 bags of kettle corn are awesome to. chocolate chips..also good! sometimes i break a graham cracker into a bunch of little pieces and have like 10 chocolate…

For things I am aware of...I absolutely pre log , and leave myself some wiggle room if possible. I know that a bunch of my friends are getting together on saturday to trick or treat with our kids. we are having dinner, and then going trick or treating..and then watching the game (LETS GO ROYALS!!!!!!!) There will be lots…

I get up at 6am, and drink coffee and water until whenever I get hungry, usually between 12 and 1:30. then I eat my lunch, usually chips and a sandwich (I pack cereal every single day) and then if I get hungry before I get off work (6pm) I eat my cereal. I eat it about half the time. then I go home and eat dinner. If i…

thi s is me exactly, and it is almost always about 2-3 days before my period, I want ALL THE FOOD. My period happens, thankfully mine usually only lasts about 2-3 days, and then without fail I have a 2lb whoosh about the day after my period. So basically while I feel like that whole week is shot, so far regardless of what…

sure, just make sure whatever you eat over is what you stacked up.

i'm 5'5" my goal is 135ish, then we shall see. I have been 155 in my adult life, but that was before kids..but even before kids..I remember feeling quite chubby.

you are going to worry about each lb individually. 100lbs is a mountain. move it one rock (lb) at a time. You have to decide it is happening. Mental block is the only thing that will stop you!

just start, and be consistent, and know that you are doing what you can do. START TODAY. don't worry about how long it will take, in march regardless if you have *only* lost 20 lbs it is still less than you weight today. I have lost 36 lbs in the last 100 days, sure I had hoped for more..but 100 days ago I would have…

I have a platform digital scale, i have never questioned it before, isually because it gives me an abysmal amount of cheese..so..

I assume you weigh 500 lbs or you over estimate how active you are. My husband was at 420 and pretty active, he could eat 2900, he never did..but he has lost 110lbs.

my husband weighs close to what you do, he is about 310. HE also works a very active job, and logs between 10,000 and 15,000 steps a day, so not sedentary at all. his start weight weight was 420. I will say that he eats between 1600 and 2000 calories a day (rarely the high end). and with that he loses about 2lbs a week.…

I am weirdo when it comes to size, i am clearly chubby..and I think just Heavy, BUT I can wear a 12 comfortably to the point of pretty loose, but 10s aren't comfy enough for me yet..and drum roll please i weight 184 lbs and i'm 5'5". and as a point of reference, i wear my pants loose enough by the end of the day I can…

I have had a cold for a werk, and i think im the only person i know who is starving wgen they are sick, i also should be getting my period in the next day or 2. Whatever. Eat all the food, like seriously all of it..get better..and move on to next week.

I am 5'5" i have lost 34 lbs and im down about 1.5 sizes.
