Good idea on posting your info to keep yourself accountable. One step at a time. Good job! Can I make one suggestion? I see that you made cinnamon rolls today and then had trouble with eating 2. I know I do my best to keep foods out of the house that I know will tempt me. It may be a good idea to keep that stuff away if at…

Don't go with him. Make yourself something healthy at home. I had this same problem. I had to just be frank with my husband and say you know what, this is why I weigh 271 pounds and I'm not doing it anymore, so you can eat how you like, but I'm not going to be a part of it anymore. I would make myself something and let him…

Bagels aren't too bad if you get a good one, and they stick with you. I also eat Lean Pockets Ham and Cheddar. Only 280 calories and they stick with you for awhile. Oatmeal is great. If I'm in a hurry I usually do a slim fast, but those sure don't stick very long.

I'm so glad you decided not to quit. I have trouble with this same thing and I've quit many times in the past, but nothing ever gets better. So this time I'm not going to quit and eventually the weight will come off. Good luck and please do share anything that you learn.

Why did my family decide to celebrate Father's Day with food??? It's been a horrible food day already and we haven't made it to dinner yet!!! My weight hasn't moved in weeks:mad: Ok...tomorrow is another day. NO MORE HOLIDAYS please!!!!
-
Don't you love people like that? As a teacher, I get to see a lot of lovely things that "parents" do. Nothing makes you more mad that someone doing that to a helpless child. Tomorrow is another day!:flowerforyou:

Sirloin steaks and chicken tonight. I'm waiting on the charcoals right now. I'm SOOOO excited, I love grilled food and it's somewhat healthy depending on what you choose. My big craving tonight-baked beans. So I'm making those too. YUMMMMM :love:
-
Did good yesterday. So far so good today. I exercised extra this morning so I could eat a bit more for dinner tonight.
-
WOW 300-600 seems way too low, and impossible! There's no way I could exist on 300-600 a day. I'd fail immediately. Definitely check that out-seems way too low.

I've been trying to lose all this extra weight for about 15 years now(and I'm only 24)!! I've been doing a lot of thinking about how far I've come lately, partly because I've been struggling so much. I guess you could say I'm an experienced dieter. Thought I'd share some things I learned along the way-and I'm still…
-
Here's what I do. I'm always exhausted when I get home, but my husband set me up a little area in our basement with my exercise bike and the television. So I can settle in and get my exercise while relaxing to my favorite TV show. It really helps make the time go by faster and I'm in my own home, which is much easier for…
-
I did that yesterday, but today was a new day. Just remember that, you can start over this second. Don't let it ruin all of your hard work. Pick yourself up and try your best not to do it again.

I did weight watchers and found that I prefer just tracking my calories for free! I was eating more calories on weight watchers than I do now and am also losing more weight now. Try breaking your points down to see how many calories you end up with. I did that a few times and found that my points allowance was way more…
-
WOOOO WOOOO Congrats!
-
You are definitely not the only one who does this. I did it tonight and now I feel TERRIBLE! I get really emotional and weird on Thursdays because that is the day my husband goes back to work and we basically don't see each other for 4 days. Well he left this afternoon and what did I do?? I ate the sadness like usual. I…
-
I'm so jealous. Mine are still about a month from picking time. NOTHING beats the taste of a homegrown tomato. My mouth is watering at the thought....
-
Oh my.......You are a nice looking guy! Look at those abs!
-
Welcome. This is a great place. Get that boyfriend under control. I know from experience that having someone that doesn't support your efforts can be the death of your weight loss plan. I've struggled with that for years. He's got to support you! My husband used to sabotage me every time I tried to lose weight, even if he…
-
Can I just say that you look great. Just so you know, I envy you. Yes there are people out there that look at you like you look at those skinny skimpy dressed girls. I hope that I can be as successful as you. Just think about that for a minute and I know that will make you feel better. You're an inspriration to others. I…

I've had the worst day today. This has been a FAT day for me. I've eaten wayyyyyyy too much and all the wrong foods. I kept seeing the commercials for those new shakes from Wendys, so guess what I had for lunch. I've really been struggling lately because I've been really depressed about my husbands new work schedule, which…
-
I avoid shopping at all costs! I always feel like I'm losing so much weight and looking good, then I go into the store and nothing fits. It just depresses me so badly and then I don't feel like I've made any progress. It seems like all clothing is made for those skinny girls. I've made a pact with myself that I won't go…
-
It's the opposite for me! I feel like I have to finish whatever my toddler leaves on his plate! I hate being wasteful.
-
I'm still working on that, but funny story I thought I'd share. I'm a teacher and one day one of my 6th graders says to me, "you have arms like my grandma". Oh the joys of honest children!
-
Ok so this has been my first week of summer vacation. This is so hard. I went from doing great to wanting to eat all the time. When school was in I didn't have time to eat during the day. My schedule didn't allow it, and only having 20 minutes for lunch made a small meal seem so much more filling. Now that I'm home I want…

I am also going to the river this weekend. I'm stressing out about it, because I'm giong with a group of friends and the last thing they need to see is me in a swimsuit. I'm thinking I'm wearing pants and all. I hate my legs!!! I can't wait until the day I am skinny enough to not have to worry about this.
-
It's always hardest for me when my husband isn't home for the evening. I get so lonely and just want to eat-food is always the best friend! And weekends are also hard. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

I am right there with you. I lost 12.5 pounds and I have been stuck there for 3 weeks-haven't lost an ounce in three weeks! It's driving me insane. I feel like I'm doing everything right and nothing is coming off. I am losing inches, but you really want to see it on the scale. Have you been measuring yourself? That is what…
-
OH my goodess. That is quite a few calories! I'll skip the Nyquil and hope it's worth it! Thanks for your help.
-
I would take it to feel better, but I don't really believe it will make be better any faster. I am just trying so hard this week to make it out of the 230's. I'm almost there and don't want to ruin it. Was just curious about the calorie content.
-
Ok so I've gotten sick, again!!! I really try to avoid taking medicine. Was wondering if Nyquil has calories. It seems like it's loaded with sugary syrup. How much will that affect my weight loss?
