Check them out. you canlay baby onthe floor and make faces at her and blow onher tummy whatever makes her happy while you are doing leg raises. Use her as a tool but make it fun. Dont feel guilty. It is important that you are…

I have a husband that is a truck driver and a son. My phone doesnt leave my side. Period! in case of an accident or something I have to be able to answer my phone.

That is my biggest fear. I am afraid that I will bust my hump to lose the 150 lbs I need to lose and then will screw up and will gain it back and will be devastated. But I think with the drive I have and determination that I will be ok. Just have to stay active and make sure I stick to eating healthy and I should be fine.

My mom doesnt do breakfast either but starves by lunch if she doesnt eat. So she has started to drink Special K protein breakfast drinks. She loves them and says they are filling. Just keep them in the fridge and grab one on the go.

I do it first thing in the morning. I take one drink of water (to take my first med of the day) and then weigh in. I know that I have weighed lighter after a bowel movement (of course) so sometimes I have to reweigh myself. But 99% of the time first thing in the morning.

hahahaha I have the same problem and I think it is because we push consistently with our toes on the elliptical versus rolling our feet on the treadmill when walking. if I take the time to go in reverse on the elliptical it helps correct the problem.If I focus hard on keeping my feet as flat as possible it doesnt do it as…

YAY !!!! Nothing harder than having temptation around you. My house is full of them. Even after being asked 4 or 5 times If I want something I stick to No Thank you. Eventually they get the idea and leave me alone. Congrats!!!!

Im 5 ft 9. started my weight loss at 327 and no one believed I was 327. they all told me I carried it well. Seeing pictures of myself I can tell you I dont think I did. I am working on a goal of 180 myself. Now this website says I should be between 125 and 147 but I have a feeling that with my bone structure I would look…

Congrats on your weight loss! I am hoping to catch up to you VERY soon.

There is another option. I am on a medication called Phentermine. It is 1 pill every morning ( can go up to two times a day i think) take it half hour before you eat. It reduces your hunger and I have found that since I dont think I am starving I make better choices in what I eat. The first 4 weeks I dropped 17 lbs. Thats…

That was fantastic Thanks for sharing.I will have to share it with other friends who I know feel the same way.

the first drop in size was about a 20lb loss or so. I started at 327 lbs a size 26/28. I am now 250-252 (i yo yo) and wear a size18/20 or 22 depending on the clothes. I went from a 44 DDD to a 42 DD. But I am still losing. I went from a 4x to a 1or2X so I am very happy. Still working at it. I want to get down to a size…

See I heard that it comes off basically from the top down. Face,neck, breasts and then down.Thats what I heard. And I can honestly say if you look at my profile my face has changed THE most and my breasts have gotten smaller. My stomach has too but the biggest change thus far has been in my face. So I dont know.

I have had about 6 total pepsi's since August 2010.I have had a few sprites or root beers. Caffeine is addictive and I have an addictive personality so bad combination so try to stay away from it as much as possible. Water is my drink of choice now and I drink about 2-2 1/2 liters of water a day.
-
I can tell you I dont honestly didnt see a change until the last 20 or 30 lbs and ive lost 74-76 lbs. I go back and forth atleast right now. fighting to break the cycle. But I have the same shape as I did before. But my clothes fall off me, and I am sitting better in my husbands arms. So there is a difference. It is just a…

the gym I signed up for gave me a free session once a month. But they were recently bought out and now no longer offer that which bums me out. but if I could afford it I would see one weekly or even daily.
-
I wish this existed. Honestly. I was wearing 26's and now I am 20's and 22's. I bagged up my clothes and gave them to a friend just to get rid of them. I buy one or two pairs of pants that are TIGHT so I would buy them at 16's or 18's and work my *kitten* off until they fit. Thats what I did. they last longer. I bought a…

I have a hand and mouth fetish honestly. I am not content unless my hand is providing food to my mouth. I have broken this trend. Everyone so far is right. Get rid of that crap in your house. I didnt have that option. My husband needs it to sustain his weight (stupid I know but Dr said so. He has an extremely high…

I have people around me consistently that subconsciously discourage me if that makes any sense. They bring food around that they know I cant eat but is my fave. It is hard to say no but all I can see when they do that is their jealousy because those that do this to me are those that are jealous they arent doing it with me…

He told me he could feel my rib bones. Or that I could sit on his lap. I know it doesnt seem like a "compliment" but when you could never sit on your loved ones lap and to be invited to do so it made me feel good. The rib one was great though. We were cuddling and he had his arm over my ribs and had to move it because it…

They have some fantastic new procedures where they can go in thru your belly button or thru your arm pit and you would have little to no scar at all.

I have a feeling I will be in the same boat. I started my journey at 327 lbs and am currently at 251. I however do not having a bunch of hanging skin but I do have a pouch still that runs from hip to hip where I carry alot of my weight which I have a feeling will be hanging skin when I am done. I have also noticed that my…

I eat crushed ice. It satisfies the eating sensation and it has no calories :D not to mention its good for you. I hope this helps.

Try a journal honestly. Before going to bed write down what happened that day things you need to remember for the next day. Its the best way to get things off your mind. Or even do it as you are laying in bed as you start to remember it so you arent going over and over it in your head trying to remember.

My trainer told me to breathe in when I am pulling my weights up or towards me and out when I am going down or letting them go back to the machine. She said it is to tighten (use) your core muscles (something like that lol) keeps you centered lol Hope that helps. Its been a few months. I just do it lol its silly but i do…

I take medication called Metformin for my PCOS. It is a diabetic drug that is used to help the body from making excess insulin when not necessary. That is how my obgyn found that I had PCOS. After years of testing and seeing an infertility specialist who had no idea why I couldnt have kids. This gentleman did a blood test…

I lost 74 lbs in 7 months but had a few set backs in there that if they had not happened I would be further along. So yes it is possible but because of some medical conditions I am on medication to help me and am given a check up every 30 days to ensure that my body is holding up ok.
-
I only log extra's that I do to my daily routine. Like what I did at the gym. Or I just logged where I walked from home to the vet then from vet to the store and then from store home it was like 4 miles (normally I would have drove) while pushing my 45 lb kiddo in a stroller and from the store home (2 miles alone)was my 45…

I have both ears pierced twice in the lobe and my tongue pierced. I had my naval done until my body decided to send me a red flag that I have allergies and a dr had to remove the cyst that grew from the inside out. However my tongue and ears arent bothered by my allergy. Its weird I know. I also have 2 tattoos one on my…
