Exactly! You know what gets me even more? That a lot of these cheaters cheat on their wives after she gained weight giving birth to his child. 4 pregnancies can really do a double take on your body. Some women can think about it and lose the weight while the rest of us need to work really hard. But no, nobody's got time…

This is it. Besides, if I were you, I wouldn't weigh everyday. Weigh once a week, at the same time of the day, right after using the bathroom and naked. This way you can see a long term trend.

Losing the cigarette is way more important than the 5 lbs. Besides, you clearly know how to lose weight, else you wouldn't have been able to do 60 lbs :smile: Wishing you the very best!

I do once a week. Everyday is too stressful for me and I tend to get stressed out over daily fluctuations. I don't need that kind of grief.

This sounds interesting. I live in the Northeast, where would I find this?

Yeah no. Your ex is a jerk. You know what a good spouse does? Tells his partner when things start spiraling like my husband did : "hey babe, i notice how you look at yourself and you don't look happy. Do you want to try and start losing weight? I'll do absolutely anything I can to help you along". This was at 1 year…

It's still not your business unless this someone close is your spouse/significant other. Even then, losing weight/getting fit etc are very personal goals.

Isn't this an amazing feeling? Love it! :smile:

All good questions. I was wondering the same thing.

More Brussels sprouts for me then!! But seriously, have you tried roasting them? With a generous pinch of salt and pepper, they're so delicious!

Please just focus on recovery. The weight will come off. We're all here to support you when you're healed and ready. Wishing you good health!

I don't do cheat days. I do cheat meals. Eating without accountability for a whole day puts too much of a dent on my progress. Besides, I don't starve myself so much that I feel the need to eat a mindblowing amount of food one day. The day of my weigh in each week, I allow myself one meal in which I don't think too much(I…

This is what I did.

Maybe the raw vegan diet is tiring you. Can you try and stick to your caloric goals whilst eating more cooked foods and small portions of whatever it is that you crave? Also, congrats on the 30 lbs lost! Fantastic job!

Yes to this! I've become so much more conscious about moving more since I bought a Fitbit. Highly recommend it.

Set alarms on your phone for once every hour to remind yourself to get up and walk.

Those posting with their "success" stories while ignoring advice from MFP all seem to have started from severe obesity. That changes the whole equation. When you have 200 lbs to lose, you can obviously lose 2 lbs a week for a whole year. But that's not the average crowd here. People who have say, 30-50 lbs to lose simply…

I visited my hometown when my daughter was around 1 and hearing "oh wow, you've become a little chubby" and variations of it was enough to get me started. But what really freaked me out was when 2 months later, my fasting blood sugars was at 101. And I'm all of 28! I decided to take charge once and for all. I've lost 21.5…

This happened to me too. I gained weight while nursing but once I weaned, it's going away.

That's not cool. You don't make fun of a partner's body like that. Please do talk to him and tell him whatever you've told us.

That's like science fiction! :open_mouth:

I empathize with you. My MIL was so worried about me losing my chubby cheeks when I was bragging to her about losing my double chin and gaining visible collar bones...sigh!

You can fruit too. Cantaloupes, musk melon, water melon, strawberries work very well. You can also do cucumbers.

Sounds like my father! You keep going!

This is not silly. It's very motivating. It makes me think like this - "If I could do it then, I can do it now"

Heck yeah! I'd give up coffee for basically nothing. No can do.

Decaf must be outlawed. It's the work of satan.

OMG! I want!!!!
