Deoderant!!! I probably put it on 2-3x, ALWAYS, before getting dressed, just in case.... I don't ever want to be the girl that "smells"!

Rarely is there only ONE reason for becoming overweight ~ I have a stack of them but none of the excuses are good enough to have caused the harm to my body that I have.. 1) Not exercising ~ The only real exercise I've ever completely enjoyed is dancing and riding horses (now I'm too heavy to ride) 2) Overeating 3) Eating…

As a sophomore in H.S., a long time ago, I had jaw surgery to correct a bad overbite and the errosion of my jaw hinges. The surgery included breaking my jaw for the adjustments and of course wiring up for recovery. I was wired for 9 weeks.. I didn't really have a weight issue back then but I still loss weight, naturally.…

NO... Run!!! Relationships should be based on trust... Not an option to begin with a lie. Be very careful out there.. With the on line dating scene, I've been there, done that, got the tshirt for it..Lots of disappointment but I did make a couple of great friendships as well.. Just be very aware... Also, some big time…

Calvin Klein Obsession ~ An oldie but goodie; Beautiful ~ Estee Lauder; Heavenly Angels ~ Victoria Secret; Cinnabar ~ Estee Lauder, another oldie but goodie.. I always get complimented more when I wear the "classic" older scents.

Where I started this time ~ getting my mind right first about the necessity of losing weight for my health and my future and how it could affect my family.. Once that was done I became committed to logging in every morsel I stuff in my mouth, to me, that's the most helpful tool on this site, other than my incredible…

I'm experiencing the same issue right now... Clothes are looser, down a size, thinner face but the scale won't budge past the 10lbs I've lost since I started in Jan. I do have issues with water retention and I know I'm not drinking enough water... So, for me, it's going to take upping my movement, upping my water, and…

Oh yes... it sucks but I try very hard to not think about the condition. I refuse to let it define me! I will lose the weight, despite the medical issues associated with PCOS!!! I used to use it as a crutch when I was lazier about losing weight but I'm stronger and more mature than that now and way past it!! You can get…

Hey there, 47 in May, and making lifestyle changes and loving this site as it really keeps me on track and I've made great friends in the process.. Started in early Jan and have only seen a 10lb loss with a couple of gains but I am very motivated to getting it right, however, not in a huge hurry as it took half my life to…

I recognize that I am simply a meat eater, I love it, bottom line.. I would never push my love of meat on anyone else, though. Protein is essential for a balanced diet but there are many other ways to attain your protein through eggs, nuts, beans etc. all of which I also love, but give me a good ole steak or a turkey leg…

There's some wonderful, loving, motivational folks here and I also love to be a friend and help others in their journey to better health and happier lives.

Logging every morsel that goes into my mouth! It makes me so much more aware of what I'm doing, which keeps me under calories most days. I hate making poor decisions and then having to see it in black and white and on the scale too. Never realized the true importance of a food diary!
-
Good Morning, Diana! Welcome to MFP! Glad you've taken the step.. This is a great site with a lot of very friendly and motivated folks that will help you with your weightloss journey. I am faithful with my food diary and that is what keeps me on track. It's coming off slowly weightwise, but my clothes are the big indicator…

Your post made my day!!! I could feel your pain and anguish and then I felt like celebrating for you as you met your milestones! I hope to be a new woman myself in about 10 more months. I already enjoy my journey and although it's slow progress I feel better! Thank you and I wish you much continued success!! You are…

Yes!!!! So, frustrating... Especially when you know you have done pretty well, clothes are looser but that darn number moves up and the only reason can be TOM.... I am participating in a Biggest Loser Competition at work and you have to pay for each lb you gain... I chose to skip the weigh in this week and pay $3 for…
