I bought a brand new scale and it does this - it's really annoying. I step on 3 times in a row and take the middle weight usually...

Well this is just 1lb, so multiply by 15. Eww so gross! http://tinyurl.com/3hzfrpp Now tell DH to shut his trap :)

Bump on this one too - thanks!

Give it one more shot, if you feel like you really want to. Email is too easy to ignore or get lost, so I would make a phone call this time, and have a plan of something to invite him too that is to do with the shared interest? Just call him up and say you heard about such and such and thought he might be interested in…

NJ here. But an Aussie...

Really noticeable difference! Fabulous!

Hey and you did get almost 500 exercise cals in today, so don't be too hard on yourself! Probably will not be as bad as you think tomorrow for weigh in because of your whole good week.

Perhaps you could go to a meeting / support group? They are free and you could probably find more free resources available in your area to help you. Here is one I just found doing a google search, perhaps it's a start? http://www.eatingdisordersanonymous.org/meetings.html

“If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. It's the hard that makes it great.” Tom Hanks You can do this though!

Perhaps because your weight has gone down already? And perhaps because of the goal you set yourself? Eg cals goal is different if you set a goal of 2lbs a week than if you set 1lb obviously.

Congratulations on your success so far! I know what you mean when you say you are glad you got fat - I never appreciated my body at 150 and always thought I was so huge and revolting. Now even at over 200 still, I am getting much better at loving this body I have right now, because I know what it feels like to weigh so…

I really didn't think I could live without melted cheese on toast....or grilled cheese sandwiches....but I hardly even think about it anymore!

Just plan what you will 'splurge' on and if you can exercise a little more to cover it or skip a snack to cover it or just take responsibility for going a little over for one day, but still staying within your maintenance goal or bust your butt today and the day AFTER your birthday to make up for it :) Also you could…

Yay to no more tears! That must have felt soooo good! You look fantastic!

Definitely can see a difference! Keep it up!!

I would love to weigh in somewhere every week also! As long as those numbers keep dropping, that is my goal until I am back in a size 10 or 12. My name is Sandra, I currently weigh in on Mondays and was 213.2lbs at last weigh in. I can weigh in any day but prefer not Sundays.

Some great ideas here! Thanks!

I don't know how to edit my original post - how do you do that? Can you do that? Weekly Goal: 3500 Mon: Mon: 605 (treadmill 3.5mph, 40 mins and then cat clinic prep for 90 mins walking and running up stairs) Tues: 500 (treadmill and hauling laundry up and down stairs) Wed: 701 (walking Leslie Sansone, cooking, wii fit…

I have one size 8, then stuff all the way up to 20. I am still 18/20 after 19 lbs lost and 50 days. Can't WAIT to toss out a size!

Wow! Fantastic! The change is incredible. Congratulations!

Well it's cellulose....so it's not like they are throwing wood chips in the box :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose

I'm in for the first time! Weekly Goal: 3500 Mon: 605 (treadmill 3.5mph, 40 mins and then cat clinic prep for 90 mins walking and running up stairs) Tues: Wed: Thur: Fri: Sat: Sun: Total: 605 Left to go: 2895

No matter what my distraction, at some point i am always thinking exactly that - is this EVER going to end? I think breaking the time up with something like interval training helps me get through - like I'll do 5 mins at a certain pace, and then amp it up for 2 mins go hard core and make sure my heart rate is at max, then…

Enjoy yourself, but take it easy on the breads - ouch! If anything stick with a quarter piece of that!

Haha I have Tim Tams in my fridge! I had one last night - but only one :)

The cat tatt (presumably Fergus?) is so sweet! Awesome job - can see a big difference and you look much more toned also! Congratulations!

So how do they taste? Were you happy with them? I'd also like to know how many calories before I attempt to try these otherwise I'm at risk of assuming they are not bad at all and eating lots haha

Try these ideas: 1/ Read success stories 2/ Look for buddies on here with similar goals to keep each other on track 3/ Make smaller achievable goals for yourself along the way - it's really hard to look at the final goal only because it is a long way off - so break it up into small goals eg to log everything you eat for 7…

I got the FT4 and It's wonderful. I use it to accurately count calories burned of course, but I also find it invaluable for letting me know when to push harder and for letting me know how hard i am working. Some days I will think i am going hard, and my heart rate is like totally at the low end of my target, so i will push…

Me! Not there right now though!
