I was really scared at first too, but I finaly forced myself and then I forced myself into a bathing suit and into the pool now it is no big deal. I chose the time when there was the fewest people at the gym and I started going and the more I went the better I felt about going. Now the people expect to see me there and…

Good job! Keep up the good work!:flowerforyou:

Ingredients 2 medium (1-1/4" dia) fresh Strawberries 1 oz (28.34 grams) fresh Blueberries (could use frozen berries if Fresh are not available will make more of a frozen drink) 1 large Kiwi Fruit without skin 1/4 Cup (2 oz) Activia plain yogurt (Could use vanilla or other flavored yogurt to taste) 1 tsp Clover Honey 1/2…

touch ups just give me that fever again I have found I always end up getting something new when I have a touch up:embarassed: I am so weak:laugh:

I can safely say there are no marathons in this girls future. I won't be coming up your way and climbing any mountain either:laugh: . I may do the breast cancer walk next year though.

With 100 plus pounds to lose the key is to be determined and stick to it. I also notified the people in my life that have a tendency to either be negative or tell me how to do things that they had to just keep their mouths shut through this journey. My mom (the biggest "do it my way" person I know) has finally come to…

Ok so for most people this is not a big deal but for me it is since just 2 weeks ago I could not even make a quarter mile. Yay!!!

I too would get an eror message if i weighed on my home scale so I go to the doc office once a week and weigh myself. It keeps me on track knowing that someone is expecting me every week.

My friends Mom has lots of Tattoos and after losing over 100 lbs they are ok well at least the ones I have seen. Mine are on my ankles and any time I lose a bit pf weight they just wrap around a little more but look fine.

So I was at the C-store a few minutes ago and I was so hungry well all the Godiva sets at the counter and I was like Ahhh I am getting some. So I paid the nearly 4 bucks for a 2 oz box Eeek! It is all good though cause I can make one serving last at least 4 or 5 cravings it is so rich I can only eat like 5 almonds at a…

I have never had kids and mine is uneven. I just figure it is how I carry my fat.

Most Experts are now saying that occasional cheat is going to help your metabolism. The idea being that it shocks your system.

I first heard about it in a Dietitian meeting (they did not want to waist the time with one on one sessions so they invited many people) . The I came across it again when I was looking for a calorie counter.

I think you might have a problem decreasing your carbs and not going over them very very often.

I am from Illinois (Ahhh to be home again) but currently live in Camp Lejeune, NC where the only wether changes that come are hot and rainy. Yuck!

Yay! me I am minus another 3! 4-11-08 at 422

3 More pounds Gone That is 11 total now Yay! Oh we so need a happy dance smiley on here !

I was such a sugar fiend in the past and now I replace that with berries and fresh Pineapple (extra sweet) it is so yummy. I am also a big Oatmeal fan now.

I say have a tiny piece of each over the next 3 days and then freeze the rest and when you have an awful craving have another small piece. It is after all your Birthday. Happy Birthday!:drinker: :flowerforyou:

I understand where you are at completely. I was always a big girl but when I got married I put on an extra hundred pounds. My husband always loved me just the way I was and never asked me to change. I would have days where I did nothing but sit at home crying and feeling sorry for myself. Then the day I had to say goodbye…

I have to agree with Jeremy here! Sweetheart you are a beautiful woman and you should not put up with a man who puts you down! There are plenty of fish in the sea and I know for a fact that there are men out there who will treat you like a queen, you just have to be available for them.

Good for you! but keep your eyes open and watch your sodium that first five days is probably a lot of water and sodium intake will make you retain. Keep up the good work though and soon 10 will be 20!:flowerforyou:

Oh My goodness! Talk about Palpitations! I was so scared:frown: I need mfp to stay on track. If it were not for the support here I would have jumped off the wagon by now.

Yeah the doctor was all for it though. My clothes were falling off. As soon As I went off the diet and started eating processed foods again I gained it all back.

This is so true I was on the Michael Thurman 6 week Miracle diet a few years ago. My plan said that if i picked up a food (anything processed) that had more than 10mg of sodium per serving I could not have it. I still got the sodium my body needed I got it naturally, but was not adding the extra with processed foods. I…

Keep up the good work! soon that run will feel like a walk in the park!:drinker:

Welcome Karen!:flowerforyou: Good Luck with your goals. There is a lot of support here. When your down reach out and there will be someone to help you up again.

I think I would be really careful using this site As it says Satay with 2 Tbsp of sauce is sodium free. I have to question the accuracy there.

Sounds Yummy I used to do this all the time with Hershey's syrup instead of PB. It is so light and yummy, but suprisingly filling. I could eat a couple spoons full and be done.

I need some pointers or just someone to tell me what is good I guess. I have High Blood pressure, am on blood thinners, and have and alergy to vitamin A. So I need a multi Vitamin that contains lots of Potassium but little Vitamin A and K. I also need something That is not going to break the bank. I am not working right…
