    in I am finally in the "normal" weight category! Comment by ayedemi17 August 2013
  • You are very beautiful and I agree with some stating that when you are on this weight loss journey, it is best to stay away from shopping. I find I get more depressed. I also go to Lane Bryant if I am really looking for something that way I know that it fits and looks good no matter what the size. I always come out of…
    in Feeling pretty low today Comment by ayedemi17 August 2013
  • If you begin to measure inches as well and think about how your clothes are fitting you will find greater gains. Also taking pictures and looking how you have changed over your journey may also help. Don't get discouraged. I find myself getting discouraged when I have lost nothing or even gained and then I go and take my…
    in One week in, frustrated, lacking motivation Comment by ayedemi17 July 2013
  • I have tried the Crystal Light as well as the Mio. The Crystal Light made my joints hurt...I am not sure what made them do that, but as soon as I quit drinking it...it stopped.

    in Lost Motivation - really could do with finding it! Comment by ayedemi17 June 2013
  • You can always put them on EBAY! Or donate, or give them to consignment, or sew them to make them fit you if you love them that much. Either way...don't keep them. You do not want to have an excuse to go back to the size you were before. There are always people who are the size you used to be and those less fortunate than…
    in "fat" clothes? Comment by ayedemi17 June 2013
  • I too had a bad weigh in, but I am also measuring things like my hips, thighs, waist, arms, and neck to see how I am progressing. And even though the fact that I gained weight hurts, I am keeping my spirits up because it is really about the inches. So keep working...we are here to feel better and be healthy and not be…

  • I also am choosing to measure my different body areas in inches to see how much comes off. I have found that I have a lot of muscle mass in my body and do not always get the fat off....so don't be discouraged...you are doing great!
