If you want, you can add me. Dealing with infertility from PCOS, and need to lose, well, a lot of weight. Fair warning: I say lots of bad words.

This is how I do things, too. My downfall is that one local place always party cuts pizza, so translating that into actual slices is a pain - especially in public, where I can't weigh things.

Getting married December 2015. We could totally be friends.

This was almost my understanding of average.

My high school weight was 125, until I got pregnant junior year. Then I ballooned up to 210 because of meds and bed rest. I'm around 280 now (but haven't weighed in almost a month).

This worked well for me, before I started being lazy about tracking.

I have about 80 pounds left. I started at 300.1, and was down to 260... but went on vacation and that was the end of that. :P

Married, no kids, english teacher

Yes and no - I have no lock code, but if I did he'd know what it was. However, I guard my phone with my life because it's my personal space, and that deserves respect. I assume if he's looking through my phone he's suspicious of something; he's welcome to look through it *if* he's going to tell me what it is he's looking…

Up until a couple of days ago, I was working in food service and we have crappy local water, so I basically was living off of Diet Dr. Pepper while at work. My other favorite go-to, even though it's non-caffienated, is packets of Crystal Light. We usually have 2 or 3 flavors, plus we make pitchers of it to go with dinner.

Thankfully, tailoring is something I can *definitely* handle!

I am looking at spending probably $75ish later this week, and then I'll be out of town *for* this new job in a couple of weeks and will have access to a decent selection for those few days. Hoping that plan works out, at least.

Unfortunately, not in Ohio! :P

I would *love* some of these tops - I just got hired for a new job and am in desperate need of clothes that aren't tanktops. :P

This is brilliant. I love the dress pants Torrid sells, so I'm sure their skirt won't let me down.

I should just hire you to dress me every day. I suck at this. :P

I'll be an account manager, moving up shortly after (within a year or so).

Haha, it seems I've found my people! :D Things I enjoy: Knitting, console games (and a couple PC games), musicals (particularly things like Repo! and RHPS), exploring and modding electro-gadgets of most varieties, working on cars, reading basically anything I can get my hands on (especially YA fiction), cats, spinning…

But don't you know, everyone is a pedophile or murderer! -sigh- I hate how paranoid everyone is about every little thing.

I have this cheap-o scale, and it's been incredibly accurate for the 3ish years I've owned it. It's within 2 pounds of the scales at my doctor's office, and if it does start to get wonky (which mine finally just did a couple weeks ago) replace the battery and you're good to go.…

I have a Polar FT4, which is the cheapy, basic model. I love it to death, and actually just replaced the battery in it today since it finally died. I can't swim, but it *is* waterproof... and I'm not sure why it would slide or shift or whatever if the strap is tight enough.

I do this. Even in a pack of new socks, I can tell you which ones are a pair in addition to which is left and right after they've been worn once. I also count things, either in 8's or in 3's... like I count steps when walking, by 8s.

This guy knows what he's talking about. He's done amazing, and eats all sorts of unhealthy things. :) He's also completely freaking awesome, btw.

Glad I'm not the only one! :D I'd sure want someone to stop and help me... and I think we're overly paranoid as a society.

Pssh, pick 'em up. I'll take my chances.

Monsters Inc., when Sully has to let Boo go home. Gets me every time.

I add balsamic vinegar. My mister adds chili - you could do vegetarian chili. I also really enjoy it with broccoli, cauliflower, onion, and bell pepper steamed and added.

I have about 165 left to go... so I'll be at it for a while! :) Feel free to add me, I could use some people to keep me accountable.
