Know what you mean honey... the tops are too small and the bottoms are too big. lol.

A great appetite suppressant that isnt a pill, even tho i know its a horrible way to lose weight (so nobody give me crap about it, i do things my own way) is drinking tons of water and any other non-caloric liquid and... smoking. I just started about 1 week and a half ago and i have been eating so much less. I love it.…

Gosh you sound like me. Lol. I still havent gotten into the mind set that this is a "life long" thing but im getting there slowly. I've stopped trying to starve myself into my "skinny" jeans and now try to eat at least a little healthier thanks to mfp. So im sure you can do it if you stick to this site.

Wow. Congratulations on the weight loss and beating cancer. Your quite an inspiration. Im looking to lose 15 pounds and it doesnt seem to be moving at all so i know what you mean. But this site helps sooo much so if you need anything like a little motivation or some advice, there tons of people to help. Good luck!

BY THE WAY, THIS IS A RANT/ ME VENTING, WE ALL DO IT. DONT TAKE IT TOOOO SERIOUS GIRLS.

I did that too just the other day and it felt great.

Thank you guys. And no once again im not losing weight to look better than her, its just another great reason to keep going. Im not competing with her or anything i just hate how she acts like hot sh** when she isnt. I just wanna show her up. And my bf used to not care how he talked about her but now i made him see that he…

LOL. Thanks guys. Im not just doing this to make her look bad or to make her jealous. I am doing it to make myself feel good but it's going to feel like a much much much better victory when i make her look like a tranny compared to me. Lol. And thanks for the tips. I am def. going to try them. You guys are so much help.

I HAVE to lose weight by the end of this month anyway so this is perfect. I have a wedding to go to in July so by then my weight loss goal is going to be 10 pounds. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.... everyone else thats doing this, it'd be nice if you could give me a few tips on how to keep from over eating cuz when i get…

Wow. Great job!

Lol. No im pretty sure your not. Maybe you'll meet someone on here!!

Lol. No im pretty sure your not. Maybe you'll meet someone on here!!

Im in for this! I need any extra pushes i can get!

Think of it this way... you arent going to be happy until you reach a goal that makes you happy. Whether that be 160 lbs. or 110 lbs. It doesnt matter what it is, keep going til you get there cuz when you do it will feel soooo much better than thinking everyday that you're a failure and that you'll get back on track…

Do what you think is right. If what your doing is making you sweat or tired, then put active. If it doesnt make you sweat or anything like that, then put lightly active, but do include it in your exercise journal. I do and it makes me feel like i actually did something for the day even if it wasnt a hard core workout.…

baby powder... dries up any oil. And hair spray helps too.

YES!!! And it never works... at least not for me. :( I used to binge, then purge or just try and starve completely but couldnt cuz i got really shaky. ANd of course i've tried every fad diet and diet pill out there. But good luck with it if your gonna try it and tell me if it works!!

You dont look that big in your pic? But i kind of know how you feel. When i was 12/13 years old, i thought i was pretty cute. Always had the cutest clothes, hair, makeup, etc., and didnt think i was that big... until i saw a group picture with me and all my friends. I was noticeably the biggest one. I weighed 158 pounds...…

running on a treadmill is way easier on your body than running on a track or dirt. A track is more unstable and pushes you more. Thats why some people debate about that. Some say its better to run outside rather than in a gym because it puts you in better shape and the fresh air is better. Im not sure tho. Not a doctor.…

Start by putting down the fork. lol. Just kidding. Look around and find ideas that will work for you. Im a binger so a low calorie diet works great for me cuz i learn portion control. And im broke too so cant spend too much on health food so i just think about how much money im saving when i DONT eat all the unhealthy…

Wish me luck and i wish everyone else luck too!!!!!! Im fat and really want to lose weight so hopefully this will be another little push in the right direction.

I usually always eat oatmeal for breakfast and put in o calorie sugar or sugar free syrup, jelly, or butter and low fat milk. (Just a little). And dont worry about eating more if you work out cuz you only need 1200 to keep your metabolism up. If your workin out, then its even better for your metabolism. Keep up the good…

Jillian Michaels.... She'll kick your a**!!!!!

There are sites you can go on where you enter your weight, height, sex, age, and your level of fitness. It'll do this crazy math problem and spit out what you burn on an average day.

It might not be the healthiest way to make sure i do good on v-day, but i plan on not eating the whole day except for dinner cuz my bf is planning this whole big meal with pork chops, mashed potatoes, and french bread (my biggest temptation). Wish me luck!!! Hope i make it... although I might have one little snack ;)

I;d be happy with that. Even if the scale says that im over weight, id be as long as my measuring tape said i had a small waist. So dont pay attention to the scale. :)

Lunges and squats.... a lot of them!! Best toning exercises for that trouble zone.

I do the same thing! I usually do 3 hours for an 8 hour shift. Im not sure exactly how to calculate that but i usually calculate it by adding walking and carrying an infant for that long (1.5 hours each). Not sure if its accurate but just a thought. :)

Good job!!! I signed up for my first 5k and it's only a month away. Im really nervous cuz i feel like im soo out of shape and im just gonna embarrass myself. But good luck with yours.

Welcome. This site is really good for losing weight. The people and the advice really help motivate you. Hope it helps. :)
