Buggers make want to puke. I hate when people blow their nose in public or pick their nose. Just disgusting. :angry:

Margarine is disgusting and I won't use it. Margarine was actually banned here in Wisconsin until 1967.

I quit caffeine many years ago doing what my doctor told me to do. This way I avoided withdrawal symptoms. The first week drink half as much caffeine each day. As someone mentioned above try drinking, say two cans of regular diet coke and two cans of caffeine free. The second week you drink 1/4 the caffeine you did before.…

I log everything good or bad. If I binge I've still got to be honest about it. Otherwise I'll be in denial by lying to myself. That isn't helping me at all.

I do mine for the next 3-4 weeks. That way I know how much of each item I need to buy for the week. It keeps me from eating the wrong things. There are days that I might change a banana for an apple if I want one and not the other. Otherwise I try hard to stick to the menu. Not to say there aren't bad days with me…

I think I'm going to have to invest in an iPod.

I have thought about walking three miles on the track instead. I'll probably ask my trainer what she thinks when I see her next Monday.

I'm going to start yoga this coming Monday. I have to ask if I'm supposed to come to both during the week and if I still do the cardio and machines on those days. I'm simply going to have to make myself stay on each machine for at least 15. I've got to approach it in a different way, I know that. I actually feel a bit…

I'm Kelly and I live in Wisconsin in a little itty-bitty unincorporated miss it if you blink area in the country. Not too far from town. I like to read, sew, be on the net, and I crochet occasionally. I have brown eyes and red hair. I'm 5' and have a small frame. I love the color blue. I have one cat and would be a cat…

I'm 5' and weight 108 right now. I'm trying for 90 pounds. I had hit 99 but due to overeating in February I gained nine pounds. Back on track now and I feel better about myself.

You look great. Be proud of yourself.

You really have done really well. You look good too.

My word, that is a tremendous difference. I'm in awe.

You're very beautiful.

You look great. Way to go. Your wife is gorgeous btw..

Wow!!!

You look great in those photos. Wear the bikini proudly. Be sure to "strut your stuff".:smile:

Work out five days a week, lose 8 pounds, and go to yoga class.

I had a breast reduction 30 years ago. I'm 5' and was in a 36 F at the time. Had serious back issues. I understand how you feel about having large breasts. I wish you luck in getting them smaller. Sounds like you've done really well.

I was at a lecture and the subject was addiction. The psychiatrist giving the talk said he's found that there is a list of "bull****" words. Two are "I'll try". He said these words actually tell him the patient has no intention of doing what needs to be done such as quit drinking/drugs, eat better and exercise to lose…

Keep it up, you'll be glad one day. The cravings get less and less as time goes buy, keep that in mind. Congrats on the two weeks, that's awesome.

Can't remember if I posted a reply on this thread or not. I don't think so. It was the day I got out of the shower, walked up to my husband, handed him my socks and shoes, and put my foot in his lap. He never said a word just put them on for me. I kept thinking "What's next? Having to have him wipe me." (It was gonna be…

Thanks everyone. I needed a giggle and a smile today.

No advice from me, but I do want to say I'm sorry to hear you broke your ankle. Hoping you have a speedy recovery too.

I'm so sorry I made you annoyed. You're 100% right about the wasted three years. I've spent the past three plus years doing nothing but obsessing about food and weight to the point that I'm driving myself crazy with it. At this point I'm at the end of my rope with myself and my stupidity and denial of how bad what I've…

They did send me home with a month long planned out menu. At the time I felt everyone was making a mountain out of a mole hill, they were trying to make me fat, that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the way I ate, and they were all stupid. It's taken me nearly six months of occasionally thinking about all I've been…

That's good advice. I did start with a therapist two months ago. I have to get a handle on this now. Bad habits are hard to break and it's going to take a while.

I don't feel good. I'm sick of it too. I'd love to quit being cold, queasy, dizzy, etc. Enough is enough. I'm going to listen to the medical professionals from now on and return to my dietician.

I am a small person at 5' 0" and a small frame. Do you think upping my calories slowly would be less scary and more doable? I'm afraid I'm going to become overwhelmed if I double or triple the amount I'm eating overnight. I'm thinking I'll keep it at my usual max for a couple weeks then raise it by 100 a week until I get…

I was hospitalized back in September 2012 for almost three weeks due to malnutrition. I spent that time with an NG tube pumping 24 hours a day. That's why I'm looking to eat more. It wasn't a fun time and I don't want to repeat it. I've been eating the same foods over and over for so long it's going to be hard to start…
