Congrats and keep it up! I notice I breath easier, and my skin is clearer now then when I started. I'm looking forward to more of these changes.

Dr. Seuss says "those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind", or something to that general effect. That doesn't mean that an aunt who isn't supportive doesn't matter in your life, if just means that her opinion about your weight is unimportant. Unfortunately, it doesn't always feel that way, and these…

Oh I so wish 6 inches fell off my tummy! Fabulous job! That just means you're excising well and getting stronger everyday! Congrats!

I'm with you! I also have 40 pounds to go till my goal. I don't have a time limit though. At the moment my goal is set to loose 1/2 pound a week. When I was trying to loose a pound a week I just kept getting frustrated and over-eating! Here's to working hard and reaping the benefits!

Just want to throw it out there that it can be dependent on how water is coming out of your body, like as sweat. If it's 80 degrees out and you're shoveling gravel, you're gonna need more then your average 8 glasses a day deal. Using the color of your urine is the best gauge, I think, just don't forget if you ate beets…

I just want to throw it out there to have kids tested for allergies, especially if it's a particular food, or group of foods they won't eat. I took a lot of criticism from a lot of adults when I was kid for "not liking" peanut butter. A four year old just can't describe that the very smell of it in the room makes her…

Ack! Weddings! It's like someone is always going to be offended no matter what you do, but all you want to do is have everyone be happy! I agree with whoever said get the bigger girls fitted first. Focus on the positives. Say something like "that neckline looks really flattering on you". It will be natural for them to feel…

Watching people is so funny sometimes. I work in an outdoor plant nursery, and I love watching everyone react to things they don't normally come into contact with, like mud and mosquitoes. The mosquito dance is my all time favorite!

For me I cannot exercise just to exercise. I need a reason. So I take classes, walk the dog, garden etc. I love to eat though, and let's face it people, junk food is really fun! Try giving yourself a "junk food allowance". You get one junk food snack a day, or 5% of your calories a day, or only eat junk food one day a…

Hey Everybody! I'm new too. New to mfp, (I like to call it "the Pal") and new to clean eating. I am not going to be able to go all out, at least not yet! But I am taking the step to say it out loud "I need to eat way less processed food"! There, I said it! I'm hoping that this group will give me lots of great ideas on how…

Girl! If you can quit alcohol you can do anything! Think back to when you realized you needed to quit, and how you began that process. Write down a list of everything that helped you quit drinking. I bet there's lots of things on that list that could help you now!

Hi Desperate Guy! I'm really glad you posted here! I think that was step one in what will be a long but rewarding journey for you! I think that telling your wife exactly what you just told to us, even letting her read you post, would be a really great next step for you take. She needs to know everything you just told us.…
