I was seeing a therapist for a while, but she really was not helping at all. I swear, the only thing that woman could tell me was to "breathe". I know thats good advise for most, but not so much myself. My depression is related to my PTSD from my time in the Marine Corps, so I'm trying to get in to see a specialist with…

I was slacking by not logging what i ate and cutting out my structured exercise. When u have a 2 yr old and depression, structure tends to go out the window, but just keeping up with him I think filled in a little of my exercise needs. But I firmly believe that people need a break every once in a while, and that includes a…

Yeah, I know. I was mostly just joking. I know I haven't been trying very hard lately, but I'm ready to again. Basically, I just needed a break for a little while, and now I'm back on track again.

Peanut Butter!

So, if you resolve to lose 2 lbs a week, then by the week of April 28th you would have lost actually 40 lbs. I think that is what I am going to shoot for, since it is actually 2 lbs past my original total goal that I set for myself last January.

1) I asked her one day (since she lives with us) and she said she didnt know for sure. So we added up a typical days worth for food for her and it was aroud 2200. 2) I cant say exactly what time of the day she eats, but being as she lives with us and eats out of my fridge and pantry, I can tell you she does not miss any…

I have disagree with just about everyone that said that "its just because they dont eat as much". Genetics plays the BIGGEST part in it. My mother-in-law is 49 yrs old (way past the point when her metabolism should have slowed down), does not exercise at all, and eats between 2000 and 2500 cals a day. She should be putting…

Tell ur hubby I said Semper Fi and happy belated birthday! Houston, born and raised! Got lost for a little while in California and the Carolinas, but I'm back now and dont plan on going anywhere else.

Mostly I was just going to eat the things i like and really want, just in way smaller portions, and probably over several days, that way i get my fill of them until next year.

My mother made me promise her that I would not get any tattoos that showed when i got married or went to church. That being said, I have 2 that are not visible unless I decide to show them, and i plan on get quite a few more. My next is going to be my son as a cartoon monkey!

Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred..... Loved it!

Update, my husband had strogenoff ready for dinner last night before I got home. Did I eat any? Yes, but only about a 1/2 a cup, because I ate a big salad first!!! And I even had ice cream after, although it was actually frozen nonfat greek yogurt. Woohoo!

To be within my Marine Corps height and weight standards, which at my height of 5'3 is 130 lbs or less. I'm aiming for 125. Currently at 170 I believe, but I havent weighed myself in about 2 weeks. Smaller goals that I have already met without really realizing they were good goals until I noticed them happening: 1) my ring…

Father God, Just for today Help me walk, Your narrow way Help me stand When I might fall Give me strength To hear your call May my steps be a worship May my thoughts be a praise May my words bring honor to your name Pobably no one here has heard this song, but its very true. Works in any situation, even this one. May my…

BTW there are lots of mommy groups here, but we can make a new one if yall want.

Not exactly new, but...new"ish"? My son is 18months but so far I have only managed to lose about 20..... then I gained about 10 of that back. We are having a really hard time getting him to gain weight, so I have been focusing more on that than I have losing my own weight. But I think its time to renew my efforts so to…

Yall are assuming I have one of those nice MILs that actually treat me like one of their own children. Its not quite that easy. Plus she is menopausal, so the slightest thing will set her off and she wont talk to me for days (which is actually not that bad most of the time). But that is really another problem altogether. I…

I hadnt thought about seeing a family nutritionist actually. I was easy before because I would fix a low"er" calorie dinner for me and hubs, and he would just eat seconds usually. Then the little one wanted to eat dinner with us, so they got a little higher. Now my MIL has dinner made most nights by the time we get home,…

Bump? Anybody?

I did feel pretty awesome about it.... until my husband goes and says "Now imagine how much farther along you could be if you had stuck to your workout plan." :mad: Seriously?!? He had to say something like that and just totally rain on my parade! I couldnt believe he said that. And he pretty much knew he just his foot in…

Marine Corps Boot Camp... hands down! And mostly because I had no other option, since once you're there, you are pretty much stuck like chuck.

A lot of people told me they could see a difference after just 1 week. I was stoked!!!

1. I have a tattoo of Texas on my right ribs. 2. I can speak Korean, even though I have never been there (thank you Marine Corps and your wasted funds) 3. I met my awesome husband on the internet, and I have never known another person that I fit with as well as I do with him. 4. For the longest time I could not stand the…

This is how I feel at work everyday, just sitting answering phones.....

You know there is a 4th book in the making right now, right?

And you might be a redneck you can man who said this first!!!

Get her to figure out her BMI, because it is probably perfect for her age.
