Bottom Line - You have to want it bad enough, no one else can do that for you. We've all been there, we've all had that "lightbulb" moment

I think, apart from when I was dating, I have been "almost single" most of my life, ex was a firefighter, 24 on 24 off, and took lots of overtime, or just plain slept 18 of the 24 hours he was home. So, there is alone, and lonely, I am definately NOT lonely, I am happily divorced (I cheered the day it was final) I'm also a…

Only by understanding the "why" will you be able to find the reason not to. Write it down, a journal, why you ate, xyz, and how you felt, and how you felt after. Youve done it before, I have faith that you can do it again. Log everything, really, log every little, last bite, it might give you the push to say "enough, I am…

Before and after the Dr (I walked on a broken ankle too, then when I had a bad sprain, I thought it was broken) RICE, Rest, Ice Compression (Ace bandage) Elevation (above your heart)

I eat Atkins and the occasional High protein Slim fast in addition to my Healthy Foods. I am diabetic, and I wasn't eating enough/wrong stuff, and over time gained around 10 lbs a year. All depends what you like, I totally <3 the Atkins Chocolate Caramel bar They all come in handy when I'm on the road and I cant stop for…

Everyone is different, but I can no longer eat Oatmeal, it totally hates me :( And I love it so... with cinamon...

Get it checked, it's better to be safe than sorry. I had miniscus/knee spur surgery almost 2 years ago, partly due to me ignoring the pain I was in until it got unbearable. Knee spurs are what your body grows when what you are doing isn't supporting your frame enough, ok till they catch on a ligament then it freaking hurts!

As you are not diabetic, don't worry about the sugar, a little over is fine. Have the fruit, peanut butter..in fact, cut up the apple and dip it in peanut butter as a snack :)

From a peek (ok several days) you are taking in way too much sodium, are you drinking a lot of water, cos I don't see any logged? Try and drop the sodium to the 2500, and log water Apart from that, if you stick to logging calories, your knees will stop hurting, and you won't tire so easy You are doing good, just keep at…

I knew I was fat, and I needed to lose... and that didn't do it.. My knees were screaming at me for help .. and that didn't do it December 22, 2012 I was told I was diabetic, and I thought, No, hell NO, I am not going to be diabetic! So here I am...

I don't have time to relax!!!

Give me migraines, I avoid them like the plague

Celeste, its also in the genes.. But when I started I thought almost the same "seriously, I eat healthy!" But I wasn't eating enough (every couple of hours) and I had some serious "Whoa!" moments when entering foods in, that I had considered healthy. Its a learning curve, and we are all here to help if we can :)
-
Always colder.. Didn't realize what I had lost till I lost my "tight" pinky ring Who needs books when there are labels to read? Food shopping takes twice as long now!

Look in the Mirror, if that doesn't help, nothing will. (works for me)

Thats ok, make your own nuggets, and fish sticks, sweet potato fries, um.. spagetti squash..

Prenatal (generic) here too, on advice of my Dr, and Hairdresser I'm 55, so I dont need it for its intended use ;p

Problem 1, you are stressing your gym bill - stay away from McDonalds, that'll save you money Problem 2, No weight loss, - see problem 1's solution Kids ALWAYS say they hate you, they only love you when they want something! Hate means you must be doing something right :) Eat clean, no fast food, nada, stay away from the…

With my first dog (many years ago) I tried obedience classes.. He saw a female on the other side of the room that he just HAD to meet, and took off with his chain wrapped around my ankle. Next day, foot was like a balloon, ended up being sent to A&E, and finding it was broken.. I'd been walking on it.. and needed to have…

Also remember, you went to the DR in pain. Pain pushes your BP up (so does going to the DRs - white coat syndrome) But, if all you remember from the replies here is one thing, remember this, - it is far easier to take BP pills than it is to recover/survive a heart Attack or Stroke.

And the moment she stops, and resumes eating it will go back on, because she has learned nothing from this journey. She has lost more than you, because she weighed more than you to start. Keep on doing it the right way :)

I have the snack bars and shakes on hand, not to do the whole Atkins thing, but to supplement my regular diet. They are good to have for when I need a snack, or am away from home, driving at lunchtime (Diabetic)

I feel better when Im around 1000 - 1200 Never been a big eater, just ate the wrong things, and at really odd times, which made my body think I was starving it. Now, I eat for a diabetic, snack every few hours (love string cheese and babybell cheeses) - I cant do nuts because of all the things I could do, I can eat a whole…

I actually didnt think it helped - until I ran out of it and my FBG jumped 20 points. Now I take capsules with my metformin, do I know if it works? No, but its not hurting me...
