you and me both!

I feel more stuffy when I consume milk.. not necessarily cheese though.. I have not noticed any stuffiness when I eat sugar, but I'll be on the lookout for it!

I will do it! :) No worries! Have a great vacation!

I say this is the most delicious way to get your fiber! yummmmm!!! :)

I am still new to Primal, but would be happy to have a new Primal friend.. :)

I've been maintaining too, which I am none too happy about! I can't believe I didn't lose anything... (says the girl who stuffed her face with her husband's choice for his birthday.... DAIRY QUEEN! ughhhhh!!! so mad now about it.. I got right back on the wagon on Friday, but I think it really affected my lack of…

I bought a new brand of coconut oil this past week and I think it was mislabeled.. :( There were two of the Dr. Bronner's at Whole Foods, one said, "light coconut flavor" and the other said "mild flavor".. so I got the mild flavor because I don't always want the taste of coconut.. yeah, it's SUPER coconut-y! my bulletproof…

I think your percentage lost was 2.81%.. :)

I just wanted to echo what everyone was saying.. we are on a marathon run, not a sprint.. You are overall doing GREAT! That man who was making rude comments needs to be kicked, repeatedly, in the shins. I hate that for you! I had a similar experience on Friday night AT CHURCH(!!!)... these little 9-ish year old girls were…

I lost 1 whole pound!!! YAY! 1.26% lost according to my calculations ;)

GREAT job!!

welllll.. not as well as I thought it would go. I was treated to my weakness on Tuesday (Mexican) by my friend, and I did well for dinner, but didn't do as well avoiding the chips. or the strawberry daiquiri. whoops! Wednesday went a little better, but today I am totally back on plan! so YAY! Sugar free gum sounds like a…

oops.. my total weight loss percentage for just this week is 0.52% and total is 1.13%! Yeah! Get away from me, dumb fat! lol

Let's see.. my weight this week was 345.3.. a loss of 1.8 pounds. My challenges this week are that I really want to stuff my face with emotional eating, PMS, and more emotional eating. I am really going to fight against it, but I say that as I sit with a medium sized piece of chocolate cake. sigh.... My successes this week…

I'm losing about 15 pounds a month.. Started off doing South Beach and then quickly realized that didn't "feel right".. can't really explain it, but I felt really off.. did some research and learned that for low carb to work best, it should be high fat, so I switched to more primal/paleo eating.. still fully making the…

At 10 years old, that is out of control... I am so sorry that happened to you. You are doing great! I would have "accidentally" punched him.. haha ;)

Great job everyone that has reported so far, and those that haven't yet! Weight loss is a battle, so whether you go up or down, you are doing a great job! My weigh in today is 347.5, a loss of 1.8 pounds. Not what I wanted to see on the scale this morning, but I am thankful we are moving in the right direction. :) Just…

Speaking of measurements, I had something super depressing happen with my measurements! I went to the doctor's office and had one nurse measure me the first time, and she mis-measured in my chest and waist... my hips were measured in the correct spot though. When I went back for a f/u, the nurse said I had GAINED 9 inches…

Me!! I'm happily doing as close to Primal as I can get with my budget right now. And feeling great! Feel free to add me and view my diary. For the record, I am soooo happy! haha :) Welcome!

I would love to be involved in this challenge! Love it! My starting weight as of this morning is 349.3 (another decade gone! hallelujah!!) and my goal by Memorial Day is to be at 310 or less.. I would really love to see a total of 20% gone which would put me at 301.6.. ohhhh yeah! Since I switched from South Beach to the…

Drugs are bad? Would you support someone with cancer to take round after round of poisonous chemotherapy? What about someone with a different treatable illness? Would you tell them that drugs are bad and not to do what it takes to treat the condition? Obesity is a disease, as well. I'm really ready for people to understand…

I had followed both South Beach and Atkins before (without Phen) and still had crazy sugar cravings. This cut them instantly. It really was a magic pill for that. I think the rest of your response was for the original poster since I covered most of that in my reply to her... I also just want to say that if you get the Phen…

I have been on the generic Phentermine for just at a month now and have lost 18 pounds. The first two days, I felt nothing as the nurse practioner instructed me to take 1/2 tab the first two days.. the third day (1st day on a whole tablet), I was completely "cracked out"... I got about 2 hours of sleep that night and was…

I was actually coming onto this board for PCOS success stories! Haha! :) Thanks so much! You are looking great, but I know you have to be feeling great too! So proud of you!!

Great job!! :happy:

i like sugar free rockstars... but my new favorite thing is vitafusion b-12 gummy vitamins.. i take 2 in the morning and i have energy ALL day.. i think they're 5 calories for 2. and they're yum!

i had lap-band surgery in june of 2007. i lost about 50 pounds initially, and then put it all back on, plus another 5-10 pounds. then last feb. i got serious again and went in for an adjustment. they barely put anything in the band, so i continued to eat at my normal rate. but i didn't gain anything else. then i started…

i've only been on the site 1 week, but started with my low-GI plan on the 3rd.. you're probably right.... but i like to be on top of it! haha... i do need to up the exercise too... :( i'm such a baby..
