It's insane!!! So much killing and waste just to get ivory. Thank you so much for signing! I'm just trying to spread the word to get as many signatures as we can, whether on my employers petition, or the main one. Either one helps bring us closer to the goal!

Bought a size 0 dress! O.o It's for my engagement pictures in a couple weeks. ^.^ Now to clarify, it's from white house black market, vanity sizing for sure, and its cut in a way that it fits my skinny torso and is loose over my hips where all my weight is. But HEY! Talk about an awesome feeling. I went in there to try the…

Shame on me, I still haven't posted. I'm pretty excited about this group, it's just been a busy couple weeks. My goal is 125-130. I am 5'2" and got up to 155.6 this past Christmas. That is my heaviest weight ever and I'm not too happy about it. My doctor put me on a 1000 calorie diet which is actually helping quite a bit.…

I somehow managed not to exceed my maintenance calories while my sister was in town visiting for four days! I'm pretty darn proud of myself for that. My biggest day was 1600. *dances* :laugh:
-
Ello! 5'2" here. Currently 148, weighed 125 in Highschool. It still depends on the brand and type of material. Waist is 27, but hips are 41... Soooo I wear between a 6 and an 8. I was a consistant 6 in HS and college and didn't really bump up to the 6-8 margin until I hit 150 last fall. (UGH) It really just depends though.…

Great Job!!! I'm on Week Three and I'm kind of dreading next weeks five minute jogs. XD

My advice is to find a partner! Both my friend and I are getting married next year (she's got Pi day and I'm 10-17) and we made a pact to keep each other on the right track. We started the couch to five K a few months ago. We make sure we complete both sets of apps to it's taking double the time (makes sure we're ready for…

Iccceee Creaaaaaam. If I want something sweet, it's usually ice cream. Luckily we don't keep it in the apartment or I'd be SOL. So when my craving hits I would have to drive to the ice cream parlor and spend money on the deliciousness. (Double deterrent... I hate wasting gas... and I'm saving for a wedding. Whoo!) Oh how I…

The orriginal post actually makes me feel a bit better. My Doctor put me on a 1000cal diet and I was concerned because of all of the hype I read about 1200 minimum. It is difficult and I try to keep it around 1000-1200 a day, but I've actually started to lose a little bit of weight. I was previously trying to eat 14-1600…

My goal is 20-25 pounds so I'm in!

I just got the Zip for free because of my insurance a week ago and I love it! I have a very sedentary job, so it shames me into walking more when I get home. (I mean seriously, it's 2:21p and I'm sitting at 1,357 steps... UGH) I really like how it shows your active mintues and syncs caloric intake with MFP. I'm a happy…

Awesome! Friend and I are doing C25K (end of week 2) and this is great advice! Commenting so that I can find it in the future. ^.^
-
:) Thank you both! (And to everyone else too!) I'll share this with my friend too.
-
I'm really interested in this as well. My friend and I just started doing C25K after work. We ended up starting over last week due to tons of rain storms and she had a week long trip she had to do for work. We're on week two again (90 second run+ 2 minute walk) and we do okay until we get to the last set, then we feel like…

I decided to try it out because of the benefits as far as bowel health goes. I have IBS and NOTHING has worked, water, fiber, eating healthy... just doesn't cut it. I'm one of those folks who stays stopped up for two weeks and then my body decides to explode out. I've been taking the Yacon Syrup for two weeks and have…
-
WOW!!! Thank you both! So much information! I'll definately be switching! I think I can manage the 1400 instead of 1200, and then just not "count" my exercize calories. *Excited again* hehe.
-
Thanks!!! I may try that. I know part of my problem is serving size. My boyfriend does all the cooking since I tend to hurt myself in the kitchen. He tends to split everything down the middle, which works for him, but is too much for me. Then he gets fussy because I'm "complaining" about too much food. I try to even things…
-
AH, Thanks. I fixed it. 17 is ALL of my weight loss. >.< It's not an it's only to me since I'm just starting. I'm measuring myself every two weeks like it suggests. Tomorrow is measure day. I'll have to update then. ^.^ I'm glad to hear i'm not alone in not seeing anything for a month. It's been very, VERY, frustrating.

^.^ I prefer to call myself a geek, but I still fall into this category. I enjoy video games (handheld more than console.) My geekdom incorporates everything from music to animals to anime to books. Never got into roleplay games like D&D and LARPing but if it's a board game (other than Catan) I'm in. Yes, yes, everyone…
