I guess there are badges now. It says: It may as well say, “Struggling with weight since the dawn of time, yet still alive, kicking and fighting” :D it should be an image of a trophy… a rhinestone walker or dinosaur in a bikini. :D

  • WOW! You look fabulous!!! Great work! :drinker:
  • You look fabulous!!! Excellent work!
  • Welcome Margaret! It is not rude to "lurk"... it takes courage to post on a thread on any website, but with a website that covers something as personal as weight loss and health... TONS of courage. Great job :drinker:
  • If they are on her friend's list, they know that her intentions are not to hurt, but to help. Just as I'm sure your intention is not to be combative, but to simply state your opinion... Perhaps you can overlook that you find the label offensive, and offer some advice regarding the issue of being supportive to those that…
  • Fabulous for you that the only comment you have to offer is negating a statement of someone who appears to sincerely want to be supportive. I don't think she is being offensive. I believe her intent to be pure. She is asking how to support someone who is making clearly unhealthy choices. Just because you don't appreciate…
  • Howdy neighbor! I am in Everett, but grew up in North Seattle, so all of the Seattle parks are my "stomping grounds". Thanks for the props - On the way out on the trail, I told my son "maybe next time we will go the opposite direction"... on the last half mile, as we were going downhill, I was glad we hadn't come that way!…
  • Morgori - Feel better soon!!! Laurie - Poor kitty! I hope he feels better soon. I hate when my animals are sick; I always feel so helpless. My dog has skin issues and some days, when it is really bad, he will just munch on himself and cry. It breaks my heart. Robin - Have you tried alternating the heat with ice? I have…
  • I eat from 1200 to 1500 calories a day and am losing weight... I expect to keep going and keep it off. There are lots of reasons why you should eat more than 1200 cals- I am not some medical prof who will be able to list them... I sell airplane parts, not statistics. :wink: Were I to eat "low cal", I could only do it for a…
  • Wonderfully done and fabulously stated :)
  • I am on day 63 of logging my food and paying attention to what my body does and what I put into it. In that time, I have lost 19.5 pounds and gained much more than that in confidence. The number on the scale isn't my primary objective, but it does help to watch it move closer and closer to my goal weight as I breathe…
  • No no no.. wiping your a** IS a good thing.... logging it as a calorie burn, well....... naceto burned 2000 calories doing 5 minutes of "Laughing at this thread"
  • YAY!!!!! Way to go!!! I am so happy for you!:drinker:
  • @Jana- You are a rock star, girly! You will do terrific! (and I am not sure if I would prefer burps or farts... ugh tough choice) So I got a probiotic and an enzyme (similar to what beano does, from what I understand) @Skinnyjeanz- I have been meaning to add more quinoa. It has been forever since I had it (outside of my…
  • That's awesome :) Thanks so much for posting this.
  • ******WARNING TMI ALERT******Please accept my apologies in advance, for what I am about to type. I'm pretty sure my brain to mouth filter is not working today.... :blushing: Thursday truth - I fart. :embarassed: My son thinks it's fabulous and a good reason for him to do it too.... but his are much louder, and they stink…
  • I was doing a teaspoon... so probably too much! How much did you start with? (Oh and thank you VERY much for answering my questions) :)
  • Lin - thank you! I am feeling much better... the hip seems to behave as long as I take it slow. I don't wanna go slow!!! :sad: But I shall. Sending healing thoughts and prayers for your dad :flowerforyou: ~hugs~
  • You look amazing!!! Great job sticking to it, and staying healthy! :)
  • MyM0wM0w - Stay strong!!! Maybe it is your excellence at sticking to plan that is keeping things as is... what can you do to mix things up a bit? Change up the veggies and fruits (or add more), perform a different exercise activity, or maybe your stress levels are higher than normal? Don't let that silly number on the…
  • I started doing local raw honey for my allergies also... but find that it triggers allergies for me instead of helping. Have you done that long? I am wondering if maybe I just have to use less.....
  • I haven't heard of ZOI, MyM0wM0w, but I will have to look for it. Thanks :) nicholsvj- I get the kind with the tasty jellied fruit... I enjoy the plain, with fresh fruit, but have a hard time with the prep... <insert nice way to say how lazy I am, here>. I did try a couple of other things, and decided to stick to my guns…
  • I missed you guys/gals yesterday!!! I was swamped at work, and decided that leaving the computer off when I got home, was the best way to go. I can't get the message boards on my ipod... so.... @vickimieth, Kelley, MyM0wM0w - Thanks for your feedback and encouragement. I think I need to watch the sugar and bread more…
  • Checking in... I'm getting lazy. I have been doing okay, just slow minded and not as diligent about making healthy choices. I need to find my groove again and push myself to be my best. I have been eating more bread and sugar (not from fruit) lately and am wondering if perhaps that is what is dragging me down. I feel…
  • Well done!!! Keep up the great work! :)
  • Hi Everyone! I hope your weekend is going fantastically amazing! :happy: Sunday share for me--- I am Nicole, 39 years old, and I live in Washington State. I have always been "chubby", but really started to pile on the weight with my pregnancy with my son. I gained 80 pounds with pregnancy, even though I was incredibly sick…
  • YAY!!! You look fabulous! Keep going girl, you are doing terrific! :drinker:
  • @vickimieth- WOW!! I didn't know about the magnesium for breathing issues. That is super cool! I have asthma and along with my increased activity and better food choices, have been more consistent with my magnesium supplement. This could be contributing to my increase in endurance. :happy: Yay! Knowledge is power. :) Thank…
  • Hiya! Happy Saturday! I am really excited because today I get to go hang out with one of my best gal pals. She is super aware of healthy choices and supports my goals, so I should have no problem with temptation today. Thanks for all of the feedback on the Tae Bo vs my own exercises! I am going to wait on the Tae Bo, at…
  • Great news!!! :drinker: Do you take magnesium as well? I am also deficient in vitamin D, and my doc said to be sure I take my magnesium so I am better absorbing the D and calcium. Magnesium is such a big deal - I was amazed at how different I felt when I started taking it. Lower stress levels, better quality sleep, fewer…
