[/quote] BBQ is definitely a treat. But I'd been wanting it for a long time, so I just did it B) . It's more typical to spend $20-$25 bucks at the Asian place around the corner to get an entree and a large soup that is easily 3 meals. The food is a little pricier than most strip mall Asian places, but they use really fresh…

The scale feels part of me now, I don’t think I could give it up, lol! I may start daily weighing though to see trends.

Thank you, I hope so!

I’m 2 weeks shy of the 3 month mark but so far have lost 37lbs but 18 of those were in the first month, lost 13 in month 2 and lost 6 so far in month 3 but can maybe squeeze out 10. So maybe I’ll average 7-10 a month which I guess is ok, it just seems like it should be more.

I guess so. My doctor seems to think that since I have so much weight to lose it should be flying off me. It did at first but not anymore.

You can buy pre cut broccoli!? I’ll have to look for it!

Thanks. Yes, they won’t do surgery, just PT but it’s painful! Some days I can barely walk which makes all the food delivery appealing but it’s tempting to order unhealthy food and it’s really expensive with delivery fees and tips. The steamfresh bags are a good idea. I’ll have to look for the chicken.

Thank you, this is very helpful. I never really thought of PT since I figured weight loss was the only answer but maybe I’ll look into it.

That’s awesome, congrats! Yes, I’m completely freaked out by Covid because of my weight. Working on it but it doesn’t happen overnight!

I forgot about those. I haven’t had those in ages!

Donuts!

Taco Bell. A few tacos won’t ruin my calories for the day but the hard part is not ordering all the rest of the things I want.

This is exactly how I feel! I haven’t been to Trader Joe’s in a long time, what’s good there?

Thank you everyone. Yes, we are planning a funeral over the summer or whenever it’s safe to do so.

That being alone and isolated from your family isn’t as easy as I thought.

Congratulations on the weight loss, that’s awesome! The question is though, could you have lost that 250lbs without calorie counting?

And how’s that working out for you? I don’t think I know one couple in the past 5 years or so who haven’t met online.

West burbs here.

2019 sucked but so did 2018, 2017, 2016 and pretty much every year before that so at least it’s consistent and my expectations for 2020 are pretty low.

Taco Bell calories add up fast or maybe I just eat a lot there!

I eat Chick Fil A at least 2-3 times every week and lose weight. I have my doubts that their mac and cheese nutritional info is accurate but no problems so far.

Thanks. I’ve tried those socks but since I also have achilles tendinitis they are too tight around my achilles and cause pain. I’m just a mess!

Ugh, the clean up! It just doesn’t seem worth it to me, especially because I don’t enjoy it, to cook and clean for just me.

Someone named Lonestar just sent me a very nice message and friend request and I accidentally deleted it. I don’t know the exact member handle so I can’t find this person to send them a friend request so if you’re Lonestar, my apologies.

I’m sorry Naveed, love sucks sometimes. Music saves me, it can change my mood instantly. Any favorite songs that help you? I’m glad to hear your physical activity is helping. My diet has been crap lately as has my exercise. I know I would feel better if I get back at it. I don’t think I’m depressed, I just enjoy eating…

I’m sorry your relationship ended. I know how extremely painful it can be. I’ve been through two awful break ups in the past year and a half and it really sucks. The sad thing is that they weren’t really great relationships to begin with. I just sometimes feel that all the decent guys are already taken because I keep…

Exactly! No one wants to be the old crazy cat lady! I already have the really nice car. 😉

The grass is always greener. I hear from my married friends how they would love to be single and here I am dying to be married. I think it’s good advice to be more active and just get out there even if it is by myself. Online dating has been such a nightmare between all the married men, men just looking for hookups and…

I’m sorry for your loss. I’m glad you have such a good relationship with your stepson.
