1. He's obviously insecure about himself. 2. He may be socially inept at encouraging other people. But either way, don't make this about him. Make it about you. (Remember, it's all about me, deal with it!) There's one in every crowd so don't empower him. I'm so proud of you for your hard work and effort. I'm not yet to the…

Harrisburg here. We could have our own PA support group and possible meet-ups. I'd love to be friends with others from PA so add me if you are interested.

I changed my daily schedule. I like to go to the gym before work so I get up at 4:00 am during the week. I have my dinner between 6 and 7 and I go to bed at 9:00 pm so I don't have problems with nighttime snacking. Where my problems come in now is on weekends, sleeping in for me is 7:30 - 8:00 am and going to the movies…

Me either, I've turned every feeling I have into a reason to eat and I am a very emotional person. Now I'm unlearning that, slowly.

Under the Dome - Steven King Murder Past Due by Miranda James Silent Ghost by Sue Ann Jaffarian Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - J.K. Rowling The Good Knight - Mercedes Lackey and the Teleportation Accident by Ned .....ugh I can't remember. (Yes, I have a short attention span!)

Hi Everyone, My name is Kai and I'm 44. I am the mother of a 19 year old son with special needs. On April 1, 2013 I weighed 319.6, now I am down to 277.4 with my weigh in being tomorrow (nervous, who's nervous?). Two of the driving factors to my wanting to lose weight is so that I live longer to be here for my son and…

I saw this unaccredited quote on a friend's profile: "If hunger is not the problem, then eating is not the answer!" It's become my mantra and I'm really starting to look at my problems to see exactly what they are.

Hello! I'm Kai and I'm 44 y/o. I'm married with one teenage son and two cats. I've lost 42 pounds since starting here and have about 98 left to go. I'm a natural born cheerleader and love to chat. I'm not on a specific diet, just counting my calories and working out at least an hour a day. I'd love to have some 40 and…

You forgot to mention the genetic, environmental and socio-economic facters that influence morbid obesity. I am morbidly obese, I am quite happy with myself but concerned for my health. I am not a victim though over the years I have slipped into the victim role because of my weight. But I very strongly disagree with the…

I choose to workout early in the morning (I get up 4:00 am) because I used to go for walks after work when it was cooler. Everyday the same man in the same truck would drive by me and yell very unflattering things about me. Did I cry? Yes, but not where or when he could see me. Did I stop walking, no. Just readjusted my…

Just started Steven King's Under the Dome. It really made the time on the stationary bike go by!

I work a desk job, but my desk is the farthest away from the printer/photo copier and the kitchen. So I had nice walks to get my coffee or when I needed to pick something up at the printer. Last week we got a brand new printer/copier and it's in the cubicle right across from mine. I asked not to be hooked up to it but was…

Younger :happy: I'm 43 y/o and my son will be 19 y/o in a few weeks. When people see us together or I tell them my son is almost 19 they are shocked. I'm not sure it's because of how I look but because of my personality. I am and have always been a kid at heart!

I'm proud of myself for not giving up or giving in when my emotions/hormones started to get the best of me. I'm still under my calorie goal every day since I started here and 17 days binge free. Though last night was really close!

Don't give up. Look at it this way, next week is going to come no matter what. Do you want to look back on this week and say "I should have...." or do you want to look back and say "I did my best and I'm a better person for it!" You're not alone. You can do it!

I sleep when I get stressed, but I eat for every other emotion I have. Boredom really gets me going and I really can't think of anything I'd like to do more than eat.

Going through this right now. I didn't even realize it. I sent my hubby a text this morning saying I want to eat everything I see so I'm hiding my lunch until lunch time. He texts back "So it's that time of the month again is it?" I guess he's seen the pattern.

I started addiction counseling. I've only had one appointment so far so I really don't have an opinion on it yet. I just know that I've been eating my life away and eating as a substitute for something. It got to the point that I was eating constantly and when I wasn't eating I was looking for food. I know I have a lot to…

Just finished Calculated in Death by J.D. Robb this morning at the gym. Looking forward to starting The Book of Summers by Emylia Hall. My understanding is that most of the book is set in Hungary and I'm excited to learn more about a country I know little about.
