Right now, I would start with something easy. Perhaps walking? Get used to that...then move on to something more.

No...actually they intrigue me! I can't believe it is me. They also keep me motivated! I REFUSE to allow myself to get that big ever again!!!

bump to answer later

M&Ms of any kind. I've bought the HUGE bag and managed to eat half in one evening! They are in the house now...and calling my name. Once they are gone...NO MORE!!! I can't control myself around them!!

^^^Both statements!!! Yes!!!

The one time I got the flu shot...I spent the next two days with a horrible stomach ache. I have not had the flu shot since. I have not had the flu either. Also...if all of you who are worried about getting the flu...get the flu shot...what does it matter if some don't get the flu shot? You will be covered.

LOL!!!!!!!!!

What started my weight loss journey was a friend's comment about herself. She said, "I just want my clothes to fit better." I went home and thought about that. My "fat" clothes were starting to become tight. I thought I could manage losing a few pounds so that my clothes fit better. So I started...I stuck with it for a…

Bump...in the same boat.

Actually started at a size 26...now at a size 8. It took me a year and a half.

I started out about 20 pounds overweight. I gained about 50 pounds per child... I had 7 children and kept about 10 pounds per child. Hence having to lose 90 pounds. :smile: I really did eat for two people...just forgot one only needed a few extra calories.

Garden of Life and Vega One

Depends...if I want it...nothing. I will make it fit into my calories for the day. Sometimes once I see the amount of calories...I realize that it doesn't look good enough for that many calories. And sometimes my skinny jeans stop me from cheating! I can cheat and not log...but my skinny jeans do not lie!!:laugh:

I think if you have been overweight for a while...once you get down to a high "normal" BMI and weight...people think that you look SO much skinnier. They fail to realize that perhaps there are pockets of resistant fat that you are trying to get rid of. When people tell me that I shouldn't lose anymore weight...I just tell…

Greek yogurt with chocolate protein powder...like eating chocolate pudding!! Yum!

toast with butter and powdered jello....used to have it a lot as a kid. My mom was told that it was good for us. I love it...so do my kids.

SideSteel, Sarauk I would love to ask them questions about diet and heavy lifting.

But not on a paper plate. Mine got stuck and I lost some of it to the paper plate...what a waste!

It is okay, but I prefer the chocolate chip cookie dough one.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE....peanut butter M&Ms!!!!

Funny you should mention that! When I did Atkins I ate TONS of protein. Way more than 30%. But when I decided to go off it...I happened to go back to their site and read that they advocate about 30% protein. People think that Atkins is high protein...but it really isn't. I started reading MFP message boards and went with…

I lost 90 pounds using the Atkins diet. However when I went back to eating carbs....I gained a belly. I didn't gain any weight...but my body composition changed slightly. I kept the same amount of calories. I just knew that for me, I couldn't continue on the Atkins diet. I don't really like protein enough to eat that way…

I hope butt since my boobs are gone!! Wahhhh!!!!

Bump....curious to hear what others have to say

I'm 48 also! I also LOVE salt, sugar, etc! Welcome! You can do it!!!
