So so true. How do you harness this focus? I have not been able to.

A fritata of sorts. chicken onion eggs broccoli yum

What kind of wine are you giving up? :drinker: Mine is Barefoot Reising. :cry:

yes, I have been watching my weight go up daily. :cry:

Growing Up Duggar.

I got mine at Wal-mart. It is a battery operated digital scale that has 4 different units of measure. g, oz, lb., and kg. It has the Tare feature as well. I dont remember the exact price. About $20.00, for sure less than 30.

OK all you nay sayers. Look at it this way. If she got gastric bypass she would be eating way less cals than that. She will be successful if she continues. You CAN do it. I believe in you. Try to eat nutricious foods and take a daily vitamin. Good luck!!

I understand. I weighed 130 and so did my friend. We are the same height. She always looked chubby when I looked very trim. She did not achieve the same "thinness" as me until she weighed 115 even though we wore the same size clothes. I think it has to do with muscle mass. I was an athlete and she was not. You have to go…

Seems like being 79 pounds overweigh would put you into the obese or mobidly obese category (depending on height). Not sure you can avoid sagging skin at this point even with your yound age, but it will help.

We actually need lots of fat in our diets. The good fats are from tree nuts, seeds, avocados, olive oil, fish oils just to name a few off the top of my head. MUFA's (monounsaturated fatty acids) at every meal and PUFA's (polyunsaturated fatty acids) should be a 1/4 of your meal calories. These fats make you feel satisfied…

Happy healing to ya! I'm glad you are ok! And Congratualtions on the birth of your son!

Rotissery chicken from the super market can be used for a few days.

I thought maybe I'd weigh again next year.

I don't understand it and it seems so unfair. You are trying to better yourself and support your passion for running only to be stopped cold. Obviously your body is trying to tell you something but what? Seems the running/ pounding makes something in your ear go haywire. Sorry you are going through this. Wish I could help.

I am a big fan of Fast-5.

You look great but its time for a new bikini. THis one is too big for you now! WHat a great problem to have! Congrats.

I think the all or nothing mentality leads to the crash and burn syndrome. Your idea of moderation to go the long haul seems to be a good one that will lead to long term success. Congrats on your loss.

I don't hate them. Never been afraid. I guess I like them and the enthusiasum people need to have to be one. Thumbs up.

I would do it if someone would prepare it all FOR me. I'd eat just about any diet that was made for me.

I forgot to poke my potatos when I baked them in the oven one time.

Always stab first.:huh:

Crock Pot: Beef Carrots Potatoes Onions Chop everything and saute the meat ahead at home with salt and pepper and in a little flour,. Put all together in the pot and plug in early in the day.

I got it decorating a couple hundred Christmas cookies with a pastry bag. lol I had it for months and it was so painful. I couldn't hold my coffee cup in that hand! But mine was not a tear , as you say, but inflamation from over use. I finally found a velcro closed strap that fit around the elbow. It has a little bump in…
