where are you doing these activities....and I can't see doing jumping jacks in a skirt. I try to get up every half hour or 45 minutes, and I walk after lunch. In the winter I guess I can walk indoors, but there is still no place to have a mini workout session.

lettuce wraps with non-meat things

slow cooker? Hot plate? Edit: jinx! with Squamation ...lol....also what about a toaster oven. I LOVE those things in the summer when it's too hot for the oven.

home cooked meals from scratch? People seem to forget when TV dinners came out........

"I. always. get. stuck. embarassed I thought that was the way it was supposed to be blushing I'm gonna have to check out those front clasp ones at Walmart, getting out of a schweddy sports bra isn't as amusing as it sounds laugh" yesh......i figured if it was hard to get out of it meant my boobs were less likely to escape.…

I am honestly terrified of them. Scared I'll let go and leave a hole in the wall.

No. Well not yet. I either go after work, and go home, or I go to the gym and back home. i don't feel comfortable--the showers are frosty glass. What's weird is I don't mind the being naked in front of people before/after part, I just feel weird knowing people can see my movements while i wash. I guess if i have to I will,…

oh, I am sure I have abs, they are just buried under some fat ;-)

...that's really not fair. Energy (or lack of it) doesn't always have to do with your current weight. If the OP truly feels tired and has no energy, it could be the signs of another problem that has yet to be diagnosed. I know 350 lb people who can walk circles around people half their size, but I also know 150 lb people…

Oh, no, it's natural so it must be good!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think a lot of folks who say they hate salmon have never had a properly cooked piece of salmon. Mu dad cooks salmon for an hour. yes, an HOUR.

I was going to ask the same question, because the EXACT situation happened to me--was going to use Splenda, but a coworker suggested Truvia. She said the artificial sweeteners make you hungrier. I'd love to hear the community's take on this before I go to the grocery store.

Wow! interesting, and a reminder that 'we' sometimes need to get help. Glad he is doing better!

When you make your appointment, inquire about a larger robe. ask that one be set aside. based on your size (height, not necessarily weight) you might just need a man's robe. you don't want a too short robe!

By skinny, I am assuming you mean 'fit'. But skinny skinny people could be intimated too! They might be afraid to look weak next to the dude who can bench 200 lbs.

I will admit i was a little self conscious because I was worried the equipment was going to be hard to use, not because I'm fat (which I am). I did have some trouble but the gym staff was very helpful and didn't sound judge-y at all .

I go to Planet Fitness, and they are very big on 'No judgement'. Perhaps there is one near you, or gym with a similar slogan? Or go with a friend if you can.

Why even bother going to the break room for a bar? Lol.....

I always got the impression it was for someone who wanted to drop a quick 5 pounds or wanted to fit into a dress or something, but wasn't for massive and long term weight loss.

You were probably hungry, poor thing. That's exactly how I feel...

Yeah...is this a diagnosis from a medical expert? Or just your idea of what you think it should be. What is your post meal glucose levels?

My initial goal is to lose 75 lbs, then well readjust from there ;-) feel free to add me!

The purpose? for me it's money and creativity. I love meat...LOVE it, but it's interesting to see what else you can make that doesn't include meat, and it can be cheaper, and as filling as a meal with meat if you do it right!

I take the day off, but I am not that into random fried stuff. I do love meat though, and my plan is to split everything.

Looking to lose about 80-90 as well....anyone feel free to add
