What did you have for breakfast? This tired, this early is not great. You need some energy.

All of the imaginings about what has happened to the doughnuts are great, but... Our school group toured a Krispy Kreme factory/shop a few years ago. We were told that oil changes chemically as it gets used and OLD oil cooks a doughnut better. So, they buy the oil that fast food places have already used, strain it and…

Swimming or walking in the pool are my favorites for exercise. The water takes the weight off, but adds resistance, making the walking MUCH easier on the knees, but still very beneficial.

Goals this week: 8 glasses of water - This one has turned out to be pretty easy for me. I measure it out in bottles in the morning, keep them nearby and it just disappears during the day one sip at a time. But it is a goal still because I don't want to lose the habit and go back to soda and Southern sweet tea. (which is…

I know I blame just about every problem I have in my life on being fat. My knees hurt, it's because I am fat. I can't breathe after a flight of stairs, it's because I am fat. People ignore me, it's because I am fat. Guys don't find me attractive, it's because I am fat. You get the idea. So, some of those ARE because I am…

Don't interpret silence and not noticing. Also, don't interpret weight loss that isn't noticed as not mattering! It is nice when people notice, but you can't hang everything on that.

Hi, ChristiAnn! Welcome back! How was the walk? That weight loss is fantastic! Keep up the great work!
-
Meadow_sage, so sorry this issue has not resolved yet. I hope all goes well with your surgery. Keep the water flowing!
-
I would love to give and receive support, especially from people who are in similar situations and phases of life. Feel free to add me!
-
Oo, this is exciting! I know if you checked a month ago my name would have been one of those red Has-not-checked-in names. I am back and jumping in full steam. I would love for the group to be more active.

How certain are you that the 10 pounds was not water in the first place? The whole "water weight" thing is because people, especially those who are obese, retain water. That accounts for roughly 10 pounds on the people who are carrying a lot more extra weight than you are. Probably much less on you. Whether you were…

That is an amazing achievement! Way to go!

I want to pin your picture to my refrigerator! But that would be weird, so I will just keep it in mind that this CAN BE DONE! Thank you

Have seen it twice (and probably will at least once more.) Loved it! I was not really familiar with the team and such. Gamora was very different than I expected. In a good way. I have been listening to the Awesome Mix Vol. 1 for a week.

I haven't been back at this long enough to SEE much results, or even FEEL much different (don't worry, I am patient) but I feel this incredible sense of serenity just because I am trying. I expected to be irritated and hungry, but I am not. Maybe my hormones were out of whack and the good food is making me "normal." I…

Hi, Brandi! We share an anniversary. My darling husband and I just celebrated 17 years. We were married April 19, 1997. Congratulations! On your marriage and on deciding to better your life, mentally and physically.

Chicken / Sweet pepper fajitas with black olives and garlic. I should have taken a pic. It was beautiful! And yummy!

Since this thread is 2 years old, I may have already introduced myself back in the early pages. But, I have been gone for over a year and feel like saying "I'm back!" My name is Kim. My family recently moved from Mississippi to Texas. I love our new home and cannot wait to get settled. I have always been overweight. I have…

WELCOME!

If you still want fruit, you could switch it up. Or double check the numbers for the grapes. That sounds high. Cherries are listed at 22g for 20 cherries.

Signed in for the first time in 14 months (I think) yesterday. Good luck to all of us starting over.

I like lifting because it doesn't set off my asthma. Walking in water is also good as I doesn't hurt my arthritic knees.

In ancient Greece the color yellow was associated with the female gender, rather than pink.

This is already driving me crazy.

That is one of the things I don't get about the mirror self portrait fad. Why in the world would you want a picture of you with a toilet in the background?

Typewriter is the longest word that uses only the top row of letters on a qwerty keyboard.

This sounds kind of stupid, or maybe it is obvious, I don't know. When I play up-beat bouncy (in beat if not content) music, it gets me moving in my seat. It may not be aerobics, but I cannot imagine I am not burning a few more calories than if I sat motionless like a slug. Does wonders for my mood as well.
-
I'm in! My previously set goals have fallen by the wayside and I need to build some steam back up.
-
Count me in.

I was worried, as the last season was awful and Back to Earth sucked, but decided to give it a chance. The two episodes I have seen so far are fantastic, back the way it was in the beginning.
