  • For me, it's last place on, first place off, so right now that is neck, ribs, and thighs. Looking forward to the rest! ☺
  • You are an inspiration! Way to smash your goals!
  • It can sometimes be difficult to know what to say when a friend is losing weight. Do you monitor everything that goes into someone else's mouth "as a friend"? Do you say "Hey put down the fork" in a friendly way? Do you do your best to be silent, and in that way support whatever someone else wants to do with their body? Or…
  • Amazing achievement!! Job well done!!!
  • That is a fantastic analogy. :smiley:
  • Hi! I weigh daily. If I don't weigh, I don't feel accountable to myself, and more eating while ignoring the consequences is not what I need right now. When I first started weighing, I only did it weekly, and if I didn't see a loss, I would get really upset, and I would fall off my eating plan for a week (or two). So for…
  • I'm all for cutting down on sugar and sugary foods.

  • Hi! Add me! Everyone! Anyone! :) I would love to help provide support and motivation, and I could use some as well! The thing I keep reminding myself about weight loss is the same thing that I told myself when I quit smoking (twice) and got so out of shape: "I'm still learning how to do this. I need help, and I need to be…
  • I developed eczema later in life and have found that taking Apple Cider Vinegar (I use Bragg's, but I'm sure any ACV that still has the "Mother" in it will do.) has been a great help. I take 2 tablespoons in the morning and 2 in the evening, diluted in my drinking water. The ACV should be cloudy and should fizz when you…
  • I was born and raised in Central Wisconsin, but now live in York, England. :)
  • My hubby and I got one of the fancy digital scales that wirelessly upload the reading to MFP. I weigh once a week and because most scales weigh differently depending upon where they are on the floor, I just picked a spot and that is where I weigh, once a week, in my birthday suit but not out of the shower (don't want to…
