"I don't want to achieve immortality through my works. I want to achieve immortality through not dying"--Woody Allen

Also, emails work for me. Whatever is easiest for you SJ.

Well after the 100lbs I gained this weekend, my goal is now to lose 104lbs. Ugh....but worth it :).

Alright, so my fat *kitten* only lost .5 lbs this week. 133.5 (which is still up 1.5 from the summer :( I'm hoping it's just due to me eating dinner at 11 last night, but who knows. ) Measurements: Hips: 37 Lower Waist: 33 Upper Waist: 28 I did do my weights 3x this week and I did burn 3500 calories. So I met 2 out of 3…

Yeah I'm in the same boat. I'm about a 4 (sometimes a 2) but I still feel fat and gross. I know I'm not, but when I look in the mirror, I see my giant stomach sticking out, giant thighs, etc. I'm 5'6", about 132, but feel like a cow still. Ugh!

Well I am not off to a good start :(. But if I can burn 1000 cals/day for the next couple days, I can do it.

I hope you aholes are happy. I just turned down cake. Starting weight: 134.

Spank away! Just don't go overboard with it--it doesn't need to hurt much to be effective.

3500 cals burned/week Weights 3x/week 3-4 lbs lost. Will update weights/measurments tomorrow

Jillian has some other good ones--no more trouble zones, banish fat boost metabolism, and cardio kickbox are some of my faves. The first two are 42 min, about 55 with warmup/cooldown, divided into 7 six minute circuits (so you can pick and choose). The last is about 30, 2 15 min circuits...

I make a really good bruschetta with tomatoes, asparagus, garlic and goat cheese. I use phyllo dough (2 layers) and make cups in muffin tins. Cook the cups, then add the mixture. Delic! (PS, it helps to mix the tomatoes, asparagus and garlic first, then cook in the oven in a collander (over a pan) for awhile to get alot of…

It's not great for you, but occasionally isn't going to kill you. Just try to make sure you fit it into your calories and you'll be fine.

Beer!!! (but, good beer :))

Diet Coke. I don't like coffee, but the caffeine, cold burst, and bubbles do a better job than anything else I've tried. I hate mornings but this is the most effective thing I've found.

Lol, I eat a bag of cheetos a day (minimum, most days other junk as well) and have still lost. You know it's better for you to eat healthy, but bottom line is calories. If you're under your calories, you'll lose weight, even if ALL you eat is KFC (though I don't recommend this approach, lol!). And yeah, the sodium might…

Go Bruins! And Caps! (my whole family is from Boston, so I was raised loving Boston teams, but I grew up in MD, so I love the Caps (only team around here I care about, lol))!!!!! (Luckily (?) the Caps generally blow it in the first couple rounds so my loyalties rarely conflict)

If you'd like it spelled out, your body doesn't need fasts. It needs nourishment, ie, actual food. It naturally cleans and regulates itself, it doesn't need you sticking to an all juice diet (or whatever) to do it. Fasting messes up your body's natural systems, it's stupid and potentially dangerous and any negligible…

To be fair, we are being helpful. It's just not the help you want to hear...

*facepalm*

Catonsville, Bmore county....

5'7". Currently 132, goal 128-130. I think 120 is REALLY skinny for someone our height....

I am! lol

It sucks but it's doable. I'm on 125 mg of levothyroxine. The medicine makes such a difference, in terms of energy, weight loss, etc.

Or it's still there from the night before. My makeup stays on for days, no matter how often I wash or work out.

5'8" and 115 sounds anorexically skinny....I'm 5'7" and my goal is 125-130.

I'm in the same boat. I'm 2 lbs away from my initial goal (4 lbs away from my new goal), and my motivation is just gone. I've been trying to convince myself to exercise for the last 2 hours, but am clearly screwing around on the interwebs instead (the copious amounts of pizza and beer I ingested yesterday, of course,…

Wine. Duh. Oreo's will make you feel good for like 4 minutes. A glass of wine (depending on the size and your tolerance, lol) will make you feel good for like an hour...at least...lol
