Whoa cupcake, thanks for posting that. I learned something new. :drinker:

Please continue to do research. It can cause muscle damage and digestive issues, which if you already suffer from stomach problems could exacerbate them. Also losing too fast and making drastic diet changes can negatively impact your gallbladder. I've had to learn that first hand from a 40 day juice fast. I'm not trying to…

Agree with upping your cals. I feel the same way and it was part of the reason I changed from 1200 only, feeling that way is scary and just sucks. Seconding the Scooby workshop calculator. Take some time and find what works for you, and if you aren't eating back your exercise cals at least think about starting there, but…

WAIT, isn't the back of the toilet for building with Legos and stuff, that's why I sit turned around?

I watched this for way toooo long. Anywho... carry on. Don't do the water only thing, there is no magic shazam pow thing to making cravings go away, you just have to work with yourself and you have to realize that when you do start eating, which you DO plan on doing right?, the weight will come back because, well, solids.

My collarbones! Crazy I know, but they've just started popping out a bit and I honestly didn't know if I had any. :blushing:

I've said it before, I'll say it again. I love teh Stronglifts. Started in April and am currently on the 2nd round after 5x5, really never thought I'd stick with it. But like others have said, I like the straightforward program, the time factor is great since I have 2 kids and my hubs and father are also following SL, and…

Bent over rows. Being on the second level of Stronglifts and doing them twice a week is annoying. Grr

I watched it and did a 40 days juice fast about 2 years ago, using a Jack LaLane juicer. I'd lost from 338 down to 285 and just kinda got stuck and was frustrated so I gave this a go. I lost 40lbs doing it, so about a lb a day. I would NEVER do it again, I was a grumpy resent mom and wife but I don't regret doing it. It…

You all rock so hard! Congrats on your successes. I'm loving the photos!

Right there with you. When I got a comment or a look from a random person I have to try really hard not to go home and eat away the anxiety and fear those comments evoke. I got to 338lbs to be invisible. Now that I'm get a a bit smaller than what I used to it's a battle. Family and fiends mean well enough but just don't…

Just made 24 of 'em I ate 1, but there are 9 gone. Guess my youngins loved them too!

Carl Hiaasen, one of my favourite writers. It was a signing at a Barnes & Nobles where the store manager recited all these rules of no photos, he will only sign his new book provided you have the receipt from buying it at THAT store. He will only be signing his name, nothing else.Then he came out and said, "Ignore all…

That is some fan-freaking-tastic progress! This is why I'm sticking to my lifting routine even when I have to deload, even when I feel like I'm getting no where. I know it will get me to where I ultimately want to be. CONGRATS!!!!!!!! You have worked hard and it shows! :love:

Kitchen scale is invaluable. So is time. Your better choices will all add up. Success is not a straight line. As much as we want it to be.

I spend sooo much time on Deviant art. Too much to appreciate, I just get lost in there and then bam, hours have gone by.

Cuz I can't twerk.... YET. Maybe when I shed another 50 pounds. :tongue:

NOS4A2 was so good. Joe Hill is surely talented and came by it honestly!

Nope. When I was tired a lot and the kids were young we just didn't have sex until there was time to do it right. Also, can some guys really not tell? :huh:

Thank you, I haven't mastered posting gifs.

In for the noms!

Whoa! Good on you!

I sure hope your kitchen isn't on Yelp! Also, you might wanna call in Gordon Ramsay, sounds like you may be slipping in to a Kitchen Nightmare.

:flowerforyou: Don't waste the happiness.

^^ QFT

Yes! I'm going after all! :flowerforyou:

S'okay, I didn't wanna go anyway. I got a pile of reading to do. :sad:

WAIT for me! I went to an ultra conservative school and we didn't have prom. Can we go as a group? I'll bring a flask!
