I had the same problem last week girl. I knew I was about to get my period because I could NOT stay satisfied. Every couple of hours I was ravenous. It helps to just not have the snack food around and then i'm forced to eat something healthy if I do eat. But I have not found a way to ignore the cravings. I'm a sucker. haha

Yep! I'm mostly worried the snacking that goes along with the drunkenness. Ughhh. But mind over matter!!!

Looks fun, sure.

@ilfaith- um...25-30 lbs you look very young!

Congrats, Girl!!! I just added you. I'm on the same journey. Would love to support you and motivate each other! :)

Ha...there's no such thing...

I am interested in getting a Polar FT7-- does this keep track of calories burned during normal everyday life, like when I'm not working out?

This is a perfect explanation. Thank you!

Hey girl! Just added you. I have about the same to lose. I joined MFP over a year ago but just started really using it about a month ago. Trying to make it work this time! Let's do this :)

Then why comment?

I wonder the same thing sometimes. Not to be *kitten*-ish.. But I experience such a high level of discomfort getting to be 50+ pounds overweight that I'm compelled to start dealing with it. I don't quite understand how someone can gain 100 pounds or more and be comfortable or unwilling to deal with it unless they're…

I can imagine that when you say you are not trying to offend any one that you mean it but... Come on.. [/quote] I thought the same thing....but I figured she just worded it badly. I'm sure she is just curious looking for things to avoid doing. ORRRR maybe she just wants to hear all the fatties' stories.

I don't weigh over 300 pounds but I am not far from it. Honestly, it happens when you're not paying attention and slow enough that you can deny it's happening. I could feel my clothes start to fit tighter, I could look in the mirror and see i didn't look as good as I used to, but I just denied that it was happening or it…

Me too!! Ideally over 100lbs for me, but if I can do 100 I will be BEYOND happy. I just started a couple of weeks ago and had a bad weekend (my anniversary and went camping) so this week is kind of a kick in the butt again. We can be friends and keep each other motivated :)

Thanks girl! It's good to know I'm not alone in the struggle (not that I thought I was) but to hear someone has gone through/is going through the same thing is encouraging. Congratulations on the weight loss and getting married soon! I hope it is your dream come true :D
