Raising kids (even when they are adults) is hard and emotional and never ending. Show your kids that you have taken control of your life, by becoming a healthier you, and hope that they follow your lead......eventually. And remember that YOU are just as important as the rest of the people you are caring for and about. Good…

I didn't mean to quote myself in your quote. Dur:noway:

Mmmm I really like those underarmors! I wear shorts that look like the underarmor (spandex) and I don't wear underwear. Might not be the prettiest sight, but I'm not there to win a beauty contest and I refuse to have my underwear up my derrier all workout and I'm not going to continually pick it out of there either. The…

Triumphs are aweseome aren't they, nice job!!

And vege's are a complex carb, which is exactly what I was talking about. Simple carbs are hard to process and generally not good for any reason, except they are yummy. Vege's are complex carbs. You actually just proved my point.

Maybe your doc said no simple carbs? Carbs are way misunderstood. I bet he wanted you to go no simple carbs cause no carbs at all is unhealthy and virtually impossible. Complex carbs are important and good for you.

If my period disappeared, the last thing I would be worried about it getting it back, personally speaking. I would do dang near anything to get mine to go away forever!!! and ever and ever. Never once in my life have I wished I had a period, so I'm sorta lost on this whole subject anyway.

I'm a walker and I love walking. I've tried to be a jogger, but I just really don't enjoy it and it hurts, so walking is one of the many activities I enjoy and do as much as possible. I have a dog that HAS to be walked every morning, which is great cause he makes me get out of bed and go. I think the most important thing…

That's a tough one. Does she verbalize that she wishes she could drop lbs? If she expresses the concern, that's probably your best opening, when she brings it up, but I would take it slow, like first just suggest she joins MFP or another website that helps track food and exercise and gives her a community of support. And…

I was scared too. I didn't want to look like a fool or feel like everybody is watching me because I don't know what I'm doing and don't belong there for some reason. Here's how I got over it. I enlisted my daughter to go with me. We learned the machines and some strength moves with free weights. It was so much easier with…

What nomeejerome said. If "Doc" Oz and I use that term very loosely, is touting it, it's probably a scam, if that's where you heard about this latest craze. There may be some benefit to the fruit, herb, mineral or whatever it is, but it alone will not be the magic bean. Don't waste your money, but that just MHO.

I think if it works for you, you should do it. I have just "learned" to drink my coffee black. I actually was surprised at how easy it was and that I like black coffee. For me, that saved close to 100 cals that I can use so much better somewhere else. So if you can find tea you like, then you should drink that. I have…

Big swigs of water and gum help me through most the time. Sometimes I'm just plain freaking hungry and so I eat to curb them and just adjust throughout the day. But for those little pangs that I just need to curb for a while until it's really my "time to eat" I chew gum and drink more water and it works for me.

I agree, eggs are one of my all time favorite foods and I like them every way you can cook 'em. I usually have one or 2 soft boiled in the morn, and one hard boiled in the afternoon. I never bought into the "eggs are bad for you" mostly because I can't imagine my life without eggs. I agree with cwolfman13 also. I read your…

I've had relatives say to me, "remember when you used to be such a beanpole" and then they add a laugh like it was a funny statement. As a matter of fact, yes I do remember, thanks, and not funny. I don't think they realize how rude it is. I just say, yes I do, but I also remember that was back when you didn't have…

My favorite comment so far. Please let me know if it works. Love pizza......oh wait, I don't want to drink it, I want to eat it, nevermind.

I haven't watched it yet, but I was looking it up on the internet to see what the hoopla was all about and the first thing that crossed my mind was - "Oh, he just wants to sell his blender". I'm all for the whatever works for you and hopefully it's healthy and long-lasting type of thing, but only juice for an extended…

Dude! Damn!

LMAO!

Who cares if there are millions of posts about this exact same subject. This is her post. No need to be snarky when someone is just asking for opinions and help.
-
This post may be my favorite so far. I needed a good laugh.
-
Read it, thanks. Very real and inspiring. I saved her blog to my fav's to peruse at my convenience. Thanks for passing the info along. We all know the answer is within, but it's good to hear time and time again.

Love it, you know you've got a win when it time to buy new panties. Great posts BTW, I love reading this type of moto. Just today I was able to wear a shirt that was just too tight previously. I was very happy. Sometimes the NSV are actually the sweetest!
-
That was awesome and you look amazing. Thanks for that, I needed it today.
-
You said yourself you are kicking *kitten* and loving it. Please don't let a couple birdbrains who obviously have no common sense make you question what you are doing. You look amazing and you know how much better you feel when losing weight, please don't let them stop you. My daughter could get a thousand compliments and…

Cookies, brownies, donuts and other sweets. If I do have them in the house for some reason, like my darling daughter begged hard enough, I make her hide them from me. If I don't see it, I usually forget we have it and then I'm not tempted to shove the whole package of whatever it is in my mouth.
-
I think in a - not so helpful way - she is trying to help. It is hard to stay motivated and sometimes familiar places (my parent's house for me) can make me want to overeat just because I guess I always have when I was there and maybe you felt the same way, but she is trying to stop that cycle, cause she loves you and…

Nice job! Isn't it great to have that first 10 lbs off. I'm only at 7, but it's surprising what a difference it makes. This may be a weird observation, but your posture is even different, you're standing taller in your 2nd photo. Did you notice that?
