Those that have mentioned "stomach vacuums" .....are you talking about liposuction?

I wish I lived near you! I'd walk with you.

I can't stand most types of seafood! I can't stand the look, the smell and forget the taste! Yuck!

I am an emotional eater too! It's not easy. I believe I have this condition because food was always there no matter what hurt I was going through. I have good days and bad days. Just take baby steps and don't be so hard on yourself.

Oh my!

Ok, thanks! I'm such a perfectionist that I want everything to be perfect including the calories in my food diary! I will try to get in more exercise today besides just cleaning.

I can't see you!

Wearing cute clothes. Not looking pregnant!

I am just under 5 feet one inch. Sometimes I've had a nurse ask me if I was sure I was that height and not taller? Um......if she measured me why doesn't she believe it? l.o.l. I'm fun sized. No pictures yet. I'm not sure how to post them.

Congratulations on your weight loss! Jackie sounds like a god sent. It's wonderfully motivating that you lost all this weight and without the help of surgery! Thank you for sharing your story, the good, the bad and the happy.

That must of been so hurtful! That person was certainly insensative to say the least.

I am starting over today. I got myself some slim fast and some healthy snacks. I want to really be aware of what i'm putting into my body. I want to either log here or on paper and transfer it here. I've also started a zumba gold class. It's only once a week to start but it is a start.

I know I am an emotional over eater. I eat when I'm bored, emotionally hurting, lonely, or just because I enjoy something like chocolate for instance. I think this is my biggest problem.

Congratulations! How did you do it?

I'm proud that I'm starting over as of my doctors appointment yesterday. I'm proud that I'm under my calorie goal and not tempted to snack.

have you had any surgery like a tummy tuck? You look great! Please tell me I can do it too!

I too am a stress eater and emotional over eater. I was so stressed and so angry one day all I wanted to do was run away! Instead of running I walked briskly and walked and walked and walked until I felt better. Walking also took my mind off my stresses by feeling the wind on my face, hearing the sounds surrounding me,…

It seems like eating once a day helps me to lose weight and it seems like the only way I really lose weight. It's hard sometimes not to think about food but I just keep thinking about all the weight I need to lose and I think about the scale numbers getting smaller. If I don't get enough calories per day will my body take…

I can definitely relate to this post! I had a binge last night and feel so guilty and angry with myself!

Congratulations on the amazing weight loss! You look like a whole new person.

The way I've been treated for being over weight! I have emotional scars from this and had an eating disorder (I was not overweight at the time) as a teen. I just want to be accepted as I am, just as I am.

Yes, she is my baby. that is an older picture though. I'll have to try and update. she'll be a year old in August. :)

I'm venting today because I don't seemt to be losing weight but gained a pound. Also the having to post everything I eat, drink and exercise is very time consuming so I haven't been as much as I should.

I find eating before a workout (walking, etc) really does me no good. maybe something light would be okay? Eating after supper is very difficult.

Great job! Keep up the good work!

How wonderful! you look like a whole new person!

Thanks everybody! I'll read these replies more carefully tomorrow after I hopefully get some sleep. Just to clarify, I have not had a panic attack in a long time like maybe months. Tonight I had to give my son and mom a ride to and from school and while driving is when I had this panic attack. Driving is the worst time to…

Hello, I also seem to be stalled at losing weight......I was told to cut back on sodium. There is a lot of sodium in packaged foods and fluid really makes me retain water! I had no idea until one morning (after a few days of drinking a good amount of water daily) I looked at my feet and noticed they were not puffy! I had…

Thanks for all the support and friend requests!
