  • When I'm not dieting, I'll drink maybe a couple glasses of wine a week whenever I feel like it - more if I'm going out on the weekend. Much more. But when I'm watching my weight I'll stick to maybe 3 or 4 drinks when I go out, and don't have a drink unless I have to in my spare time (ex. going for a drink with an old…
  • I had this years ago when I was practically starving myself but working out like a maniac. I'm sure you're not doing the same, but have you been doing a lot of weights? Elliptical work? I can say for sure that would be doing it, but it's possible that your body takes to muscle really well and it's taking up a bit more room…
  • I know everyone says donate, but I always keep a pair of pants that's maybe one size bigger than my lowest size (maybe something you bought in transition). We're women - we can put on 5lbs overnight for eating a pretzel and lose it all the next day. While being able to fit into them may not be the best feeling if it comes,…
  • Welcome! :) Feel free to add me - I'm 25 (the age I promised myself I'd be in the best shape of my life by, har har)
  • That's ridiculous! Good for you! My Dad worked out a lot when I was a kid and of course I wanted to "help" and grew charmed with our rowing machine. While I don't love exercising as an adult, I know that the urges I *do* feel to be active wouldn't be as strong if I didn't have that exposure. It's bonding as well and when…
  • Just spent $120 on New Balance shoes yesterday, and bought some hideous neon workout gear a couple weeks ago (I always worked out in black, baggy stuff so I figure new look to get me energized!) Also at work we have seminars and functions where the booze and cupcakes are free and flowing nearly on the daily - didn't touch…
  • I kind of agree here. I'm also 5'4" and I'll never be waif-thin since I've had curves since high school, but when I'm at 140 my body is healthy and I fit into very average sizes. Most girls my height sit around 125 (which is the "ideal" weight but would look skeletal on me) so 110 may be your body protesting, since it's…
  • Welcome! I have to lost about the same after slowly watching it come back, so feel free to add me :) Only been here a few days so I can't testify how much better than WW it is yet, but I definitely like not having to work out points every five minutes!
  • 9lbs in a month that is fantastic! Great job! It's easier because the database is so much bigger and no more guessing or calculating points in the frozen section of the shop.
