This^^ I have had people tell me that I have gained weight (husband's Italian, and for some strange cultural reason, Italians really think it's okay to make LOTS of comments on your body) and every time I feel like I've been punched in the face...The one time I was told not to lose any more was like Christmas...If it…

I have a swim jacket which I bought partly b/c of being chubby :) but also b/c I am a redhead and burn really easily, and always miss spots with my suntan lotion as I go to the pool alone w/ my kids and have to put it on myself...I actually think that I will still wear a lot more coverage even when I get to my goal weight…

Terrific! That's incredible in 6 months!

Donuts..I stared at part of one my daughter had left for about 20 minutes...I finally threw it out...NSV!!!

You said that your TOM is in 2 weeks--I have stalled (and have seen that other women do too) around ovulation..I sometimes won't see a loss for 1-2 weeks, and then lose 5 lbs all at once (I guess my body is holding on to water).
-
Thanks for this...and your pants are really cute!

200 a day is a tablespoon of peanut butter...I don't think that you would survive on that for very long...

This^^^I think the stupid BMI really messed me up b/c it said that I was overweight at 140-145, and I have learned since then that that is probably my goal weight! I think that by the BMI many athletes are "obese"....so that's definitely something to think about...

Same here! I really need new clothes, but will be rockin' the yoga pants and oversized maternity tops (4 kids in 10 years I have mostly maternity clothes, sad to say) until I can get into a 10!

What's the main idea :)
-
Awesome! Don't worry--my butt sweats a lot too :embarassed:
-
Thanks I will!

There are more factors that play into the obesity factor in America than willingness to accept responsibility for one's own decisions. We have a culture that chooses quantity over quality. It is easier to be thin in a country that makes good collective decisions, and makes you feel accountable to someone besides yourself.…

Last month I lost about 5 lbs 2 days after my MC was over..I must retain a lot of water. I was freaking out b/c I hadn't seen the scale move in over a week, but then I had a big whoosh!

:happy:

That's true too...it's really hard to know what to think about lots of things, there is so much information these days. I'm still on the fence about the whole eat 1200 cals/eat TDEE/plateau/eat more to weigh less, etc. Me either! :laugh:
-
I think that anytime someone provides information it can be helpful..you don't have to take their advice, and there are two sides to any argument. If you don't want to read the information, don't. I come to MFP to learn as much as I can about fitness/food/exercise that I can, and I appreciate anyone who offers information,…

I don't understand how anyone eats McD's "chicken nuggets". They're nuggets alright, but I don't think that any chicken from this planet is involved in their making...Give me chick fil a over them any day...heck, even BKs are better!** **Just thought I'd throw in a little humor before this gets ugly.... P.S. Where is…

You look wonderful! How tall are you?
-
I love your dress! And what kind of strength training do you do? Do you follow a program?
-
-
Thank you! This was very helpful.

Heartburn?

I can look in the mirror without wanting to break it...

I had a zip but returned it b/c I wanted it to monitor calories but it seemed to really overestimate, so I was afraid that I would be tempted to eat more. I couldn't find any info. as to whether or not it was accurate. It did encourage me to move more, but I almost lost it the first time I wore it out...I think that I'd…

Add me :)

Didn't you see "Gremlins"? :happy:
-
I have an elliptical and I love it. Supposedly they are easier on the joints than treadmills, so if that is an issue for you you might consider one. I like to be able to do something inside in the winter and summer--I'm in NC and we had super humid days where the heat index was around 100--I know that there's no way I…

It sounds okay, and actually kind of similar to what I have been doing...
