I too try to provide words of encouragement, but not overbearing or expect you to answer them.......nor do I give canned "good burn" comments - I try to be halfway original. My fiancee and I have been at this for about 4 months now - totally committed and doing well and feeling great. Anyone - feel free to add me if it…

My girlfriend is Dominican, but I really want her to be Asian. I keep telling her to eat more foods that are traditionally asian, but she just won't. How can I make her Asian if she won't listen or try? It's not fair because I used to be Hispanic, and am now am Anglo Saxon. Help!

Good Luck - ~!

I certainly appreciate a good rant, as well as honesty; however, I'm of the ilk to err on the side of caution and couth - and tell someone they look great, since most people overweight already know deep down what the deal is.

Congrats Mike...two days behind ya -

Good question idro! *bashes face against computer so I can get an appetizer too* !!!

I think if you do these things within reason, start slow and still enjoy…

I have not had chemo; however, I wish you the best and hope your health is on the fast track to 'perfect!'

Just wishing you luck - looks like others have given some wonderful things to ponder over for now. I wish you much success and thanks for the friend addie!

It's a tough battle for sure, but maybe once you start to see and feel the difference of the little wins here and there, you can promote yourself to General and with the whole war. Everytime I'm in the grocery and walk past the deluge of things I love, it gets easier as time goes on. Each day, it gets better - and I think…

My fiancee and I also enjoy doing this little journey together. I love it, as does she (well, she says she does haha). Best of luck!

My girlfriend has been loyal to her calorie goals on here for 40 days and has lost 20 pounds, and like you, had enough of excuses. We both are religious to sticking with the diary and doing some cardio every day. If you can just really try hard to stick with this for 30 days, you will see and feel the difference, and get…
