Seems like a very thoughtful and sensitive woman :)

American Idol WYR - Go to the Willy Wonka factory in the original movie or the remake??

I work in a small office with very little ventilation. When someone "uses" the bathroom, the whole office stinks!!! I mean open a friggin' window!!! I am the one spraying the bath and body spray just to keep myself from throwing up! I do think you need to make her a cute little stocking with Gas-x and Beano lol. Maybe add…

Through all of my struggles with my weight and being "obese" I have learned that the only person who has control over the problem is me. I made myself fat....i ate too much and didn't exercise. Can I blame it on genetics or medical problems-sure, but I choose not to. I don't know that anything would have made me stop the…

I love the documentaries.. Craigslist Joe and Happy are really good.

I keep a huge bottle or cup of ice water with me at all times!!! If I feel the need to snack I just chug away lol. It helps me so much.

It's happening to me too.....just started last night. My settings are right. MFP is messed up!

Food is not "evil" It's the excess that is not healthy. Just my opinion.

It took me changing to 1200 calories to finally start losing weight and end my love affair with food. My doctor gave me the green light to continue with it as long as I continue to feel good and it doesn't affect my energy levels. Please don't tell me how this will ruin me for life. I want to get to a lower weight before I…

I still have a very long way to go. I was about 210 in the left and I took the one on the right on Friday, i'm at 188. I've lost 24 pounds!

OMG lol!!!!

He's eating his exercise calories back x10 LOL!!! On the lifting....not sure he has what it takes to lift heavy.

I would have posted in the Food and Nutrition forum lol!!

Ok, Symon looks like a little cat compared to this cat....WOW!!!! Did he lose any weight??

Jamie Sullivan in "A Walk to Remember" I cry every time :( Gerry in "P.S. I love you" Ellie in "Up" Mike in Breaking Bad Adrianna in Sopranos Walter White

Wow!!! That really sounds like a kitty diet sucess!!!

Yeah, my teenagers keep his bowl full all the time. They feel bad when he meows for his food. I even feel bad when he wants his treats too.

Thanks!!! Maybe I need to set up an MFP for him lol :)

Lol....I was thinking a Fitbit...hahahaha!!!!

I made a vet appointment for next month. I know it's not going to be easy. He knows where I keep the treats and he sits at the cabinet door and meows!!! He is only 4 so he's still pretty young. I just don't want him to have major issues as he gets older. I think the companionship will help your cat. Our kitty really took…

Thanks for all the input!! I have a friend who had just started doing some phoyogtaphy so I might go that route. There are a few photographers in my area so I will make sure to do my homework first. I don't want some creeper taking my pics lol!!

Some people think they are cheesy but the Paranormal Activity movies scare the crap out of me!! Not really the actual story itself but when the scary things happen. I cover my eyes every time!!

Have you had your thyroid checked? Constipation and not being able to lose weight (if you're not on medication) are side effects. If my Sythroid is off I feel very similar to how you are saying you feel. I would see my doctor and have them rule it out.

I gave up my lack of self control and "I can't do it" attitude. My lack of self control and laziness is why i got fat....not food.

I recently started cooking and eating tofu. I like the one that's already cubed and extra firm. You have to make sure to season it very well. I made veggie/tofu lasagna and it was really good.

I agree with the others, walking is the place to start. Use an app on your phone to keep track of time/speed/distance so you can improve each time. I use endomondo. Back in March (about 210 pounds) It took me about 27 minutes to walk a mile. On Monday (now 188 pounds) I did a 15:15 mile!!!! I jog more than I walk and my…

Other people's success stories only inspire and motivates me!! Yeah, I do get jealous of the naturally skinny people that don't have to do a thing but fit in the "hot" or "beautiful" category just because they are naturally thin. This is something I am working on though. I can't let the way someone was born dictate how I…

Bacon is the thing I miss the most since becoming vegetarian. My favorite brand was just plain and simple, Hormel Black Label. Cooked in the oven until crispy....wow, I miss bacon!!

I'm currently working on becoming a hot mom :) I'd say I'm in the cute mom club. [/URL]
