I am a teacher on break and my summer goal is to walk at least one hour a day. So far so good. I am a stress eater and summers have been great for loosing weight for me.

For some reason my family feels like they need to inform me of my weight status every time they see me, whether I gained or lost. Drives me insane. I tell them that not every random thought regarding my looks that enters their brain needs to come out of their mouth but there seems to be a serious look of impulse control.…

I have three kids . The oldest has special needs and was a very hyper youngster and the twins were two years younger. We had no money for the gym or a sitter, no family and no friends or neighbors who were willing or able to watch them. I was alone with them for 12 hours a day. I lost 50 pounds by walking and counting…

I got my last job when I was at my highest weight. There were a large number of applicants but I was very confident about my skills and it showed. I think sometimes when we are at a high weight our confidence suffers and we sell ourselves short.

I am sorry to here about your diagnosis, it is a lot to wrap your mind around.

I am still a work in progress myself. Take care off yourself…

I decided as well to weigh once a month and instead of numbers to focus on eating healthy and feeling well. I do not count calories either, just focus on sensible portions of healthy foods. Numbers tend to preoccupy and trigger me.

I am so sorry for your loss. You need to do what you need to do to make it through. I did loose about 40 pounds a number of years back. When I was getting close to my goal when one of my children was diagnosed with a serious livelong disability. I had a hard time adjusting and figuring out how to navigate doctors and…

I love them.:love: I used to make them as a casserole with lots of olive oil, now I usually have them with a butter, mustard and lemon sauce. I should try them roasted.

I drink 2 tbsp. of apple cider vinegar each day. I tend to have some serious vinegar cravings and find it refreshing in a glass of water. While the vinegar and other fermented foods are good for you, I do not think that they will provide some miracle weight loss effect.

Yep, very exciting. My partner and I have been together 24 years and it looks like we will be getting married this fall. I will try my best to get into shape for the wedding photos :blushing:
