I'm super nervous since I have to come into work tomorrow, and I'm a Registered Nurse, so I HAVE to absolutely go! It will be interesting to say the least if the power goes out in the hospital- we'll have to go back to the old ways of documenting in the charts and documenting what medications were given. I'm bringing an…

my advice: go to a behavioral therapist. they can teach you great ways to fight the behaviors you're displaying. good luck dear- its extremely difficult.

as a registered nurse, i cannot stress enough how so very VERY important exercise is, as part of your daily life. I have treated 40-50 year olds who watched what they ate, but did not exercise, and ended up having heart attacks/strokes/etc... I really truly think it would be best if you and a mom friend could share driving…

I want to also lose around 90 lbs- need the support! Friend me if you like :)

i'm part of an awesom ebook club, and by far the BEST BEST book i've ever read was The Alchemist. I'm a somewhat cynical person, but it gave me hope. Absolutely life changing.

I cannot even put to words how amazing everyine here is- so supprotive and yet telling the truth. I think a lot of you were right when you said that in the heat of the arguement people say bad things, and wasn't a angel at the time. i did say some bad things as well. i can understand he felt attacked about something he…

interested! please invite me :)

i'm a nighshift nurse, and i NEED my 8 hours. not 7 hrs and 45 mins either. Eight and its a date ;) No matter what, I ALWAYS end up eating way more than usual when i get less than that.

weight-in: 222.4- i forgot to weight in last week, but i've lost some 2.2 lbs the last two weeks. find that very good considering i ate like a champ on thanksgiving! woop! now back to the grindstone...

i am SO PROUD OF YOU. i feel that running is the pinnacle of fitness and health- you've reached your peak!

Check-in: Weight: I started last week at 226.8, and weighed myself yesterday at 230.0 lbs. i've been insanely sick ALL week, tried to stay on target even though the doc said i wasn't allowed to exercise... it was extremely difficult! that, and i went through 2 bags of halls (each drop is 15 calories... didnt know that…

i changed my starting weight- i started the challenge at 236 (you had me at 242 which meant i had lost 10lbs since the beginning of the challenge! alas, that is not true :(

last week's weight: 226.8 cw: 230.0 yes. i was sick all last week and did not work out, and my diet went out the window. that and i went through 2 bags of halls, and they're 15 calories each. what a HORRIBLE week for me :( it's okay- my goal is to be back down to what i was last week. we shall see :(

dear GAWD: dem guys were like 200 cals a small tiny bacon wrapped cheese filled jalapeno pepper!

not a huge fan of raisins either- nasty things- im just gonna leave those suckers out :) glad you love the idea guys, and its healthy! (i dont think it matters if you use red or green or yellow peppers... it would be interesting to try out all three :)

paddleboarding... i want to paddleboard so badly it hurts. i love the idea of just you and the ocean, and it's your body that's carrying you through the water.... i want that strength. :)

yey girl! this inspires me so much... i was at my healthiest weight at 170 lbs :) seeing your pictures helps me get some perspective on how i looked then

for me, yes, due to retaining lots of water... i just got a new scale by weight watchers that calculates body water percentage so when i see that my body water is high, my weight gain could be due to that... (there's debate as to whether it is accurate, but i use it as a reference point :) hope that helps!

it's so hard not to give in, but mostly i find that i binge when i'm bored. i'm not hungry at all... so i try to do something constructive, like cleaning the bathroom, cleaning the kitchen, cleaning ANYTHING to get my mind off food. if i really do need something, i have a skinny cow ice cream, or if i need something salty,…
