After a morning workout is easy because I just jump in the shower afterwards and to my thing to get ready for work. When I worked out after work, I didn't care about my hair too much - came home showered, blow dried (no curling) and that was that. This summer, I don't want to deal with my hair. I sweat too much on the…

I'm 5'5", 260 which puts me in the Extreme Obese category. I have to lose 1/2 of me to be considered "Normal?" I haven't been "normal" since grade school!!! Guess I need to up my goal another 50 lbs!

:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Dr. Pepper is only one of my favorite sodas!!! I long switched to diet, but haven't had ANY soda in months, and hardly any juice ( If I drink it, it's very diluted). Just think of the money you'll save by kicking the soda habit!!!

Good Going!!! :flowerforyou: It does feel good when you get a workout in, AND you burn more calories throughout the day!! Yesterday, I went for a walk during lunch - just under 2 miles. I synced my ZIP and LOVED to see my progress, especially the calories burned and how they continued to climb by the end of the day!!! I've…

160 calories is nothing, and I agree with taking a walk. You probably already burned it off but just don't realize it!! Chase your son around a few times!! :happy: I don't even want to think about how many time I've gone over. It happens and right now I feel like having a fresh loaf of bread with Twinkies!! Figure THAT one…

Hi Ladies!! I've been going through this for about 2 years now. At first, I told my doctor that I was having symptoms such as my moods going crazy and missing a cycle (thought I had a pregnancy scare there at first!!), but when she got my lab results, everything looked normal. Then one day I got extremely dizzy, worse than…

This happened a couple of years ago...I washed my 2 pairs of jeans and left them in the dryer a little too long. I was pissed about that and tried them on. Needless to say, they were way too tight and I could no longer wear them, barely able to zip them up. Well, over the course of the year, I gained weight and these jeans…

Hello Ladies! I'm 51 yrs old and have been going through menopause for the past year - suffering with hot flashes and vertigo (for which I have to take medication 2-3 times a day). I've struggle with my weight my entire life, tried everything. My latest attempt at weight loss was on WW about 3 years ago where I lost 46…

Karen - you're too funny!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I did weigh myself all over the room when I tried 5 different times. I even changed rooms (thinking that might make a difference? and backwards, too!!) And yes, I weigh myself first thing in the morning, after the bathroom break and just before I jump in the shower. I…

It's called turning the tables, flipping the script, deflecting. There are many terms for this, but basically, the man turn things around, blames or accuses the woman of the very act for which HE is guilty, thereby catching the woman off guard, causing HER to become defensive. As a result, she becomes so busy defending…

No, you're not weird and I do know others like this. It's just personal preference. :smile: I, on the other hand, love fruit and nuts and do not mind mixing sweet and savory. My family thinks I'm strange because I love to mix things - within reason. I once saw my mother mixing 2 cereals together for breakfast, which I love…

Thanks RatPat! This was very interesting. How is a person to know what their true weight is when there is such a difference among the scales? I had an experience where I used my son's digital scale to weigh myself one morning. Five attempts gave me 5 different results. I thought the scale was malfunctioning so I went and…

I have a few that I love: - Roasted beets tossed with light balsamic vinegar dressing, baby arugula (or spring mix greens) and goat cheese (feta or blue cheese works just as well) - Leafy greens, good season’s Italian dressing (or any light Italian dressing) and mandarin oranges. - Greek salad. Optional to top with grilled…

Good Morning Everyone! Dragged myself out of bed this morning and did my workout – 20minutes of ZUMBA Step – and I’m so glad I did!! It always feels better AFTER the fact. Now if I can only continue to keep that in mind on mornings that I would rather sleep a few extra minutes. KnitorMiss – what you said about water is so…

I tried the Green Coffee bean extract and Raspberry keytones - separately, not combined in one supplement. They did nothing. I hope you have better luck and didn't waste your money like I did.

Oh My Goodness..We must be!! :happy: Although I don't wear compression socks, my ankles are swollen and I have to be careful about the kind of shoes/sandals I wear. Things can look hideous when the swelling is bad. I even "joke" about my legs looking like cottage cheese in pantyhose. My friends and family laugh, but it's…

No rain, no wind, lost of sunshine and warm weather (~70)!!! Think I'll go for walk during lunch time. I tried to do that yesterday, but found myself across the…

Yes, you DO owe it to yourself and your children to be healthier and the fact that you are here is a step in the right direction. You have so much going on, so it is understandable to feel this way. There are scales out there, so in the meantime, log your food, move and take care of yourself as best as you can and remember…

Walking is one of the best exercises a person can do to get them moving, and there are different ways to walk that can really give you a good workout, get your heart pumping and work your legs and butt. I know personally know people who have lost weight (as much as 60 lbs) by walking. Yes, they did watch their diet, but…

Oh yes!!! I am 51 years old and going through menopause (hot flashes and vertigo). I've been overweight my whole life. Even when I thought I was a decent size (about 180ish) when I was about 20 yrs old, I was still considered "big." I've been on too many diets, trying whatever I could to lose weight only to gain it back…

I tend to fall for these gimmicks, even more so when I see it on the Dr. Oz show. Do not waste your money on these. I tried both and wish I spent the money on something more useful.
