I have family stress too - I stress eat and I hear you. I Hope you had a quiet less stress christmas and found some peace. I get it. It's hard to understand how others causing you stress can lead to over eating... it's subconcious and not a choice when I stress eat too. I literally have to just walk away sometimes and…

I had a lot of ham left too. I love ham sliced and wrapped around dill pickle spears and laughing cow swiss cheese spread. Ham salad. Ham in Mac and cheese (light of course) is a family favorite. Grilled with a little maple syrup with breakfast... mmmmm

"Awesome Sauce"... I hate that stupid commercial and that stupid phrase. It can just go away. plus, how do you not know where your twin sister works? Just dumb all together.

A lot of the recipes suggested are weight loss and if you read the original post again he needs to GAIN weight it says so my suggestion is to use glucerna shake mix packets and add things like homemade non sugar peanut butter or I like cashew butter (break out the food processor and make it yourself with a bit of oil so…

I've been on here a year - I was prediabetic and I lost 40 lbs and now I'm not prediabetic anymore. I'm a slow loser but this makes me accountable to myself and others. I still have at least 30 more to go. I think it's worth it.

You can add me as a friend too - I've lost a baby to ectopic and a baby to miscarriage. I also lost my Dad not long ago... My hero. So I'm the poster child for depression and self medicating with food. It hard to get past bad things we don't understand. No baby or parent should ever pass away. I dug a big giant hole of…

I had 3 kids with no weight loss in between - just packed on the pounds. I was pre-diabetic (diabetic during pregnancy) always tired and hungry. I took 10 years to put weight on & was 210 lbs. A year ago a fat photo at my best friends wedding with my skinny Mom made me feel like Godzilla... Made me cry & then I got mad at…

I read all 3 books and couldn't see what the excitement over them was. Really truly a bore read And didn't turn me on at all - hoped maybe movie would be better - didn't get to see it on Valentine's Day like I wanted - so maybe it's a good thing because a lot of people have told me its a dud.

Kids to Grandmas - thinking of going to the movies to see 50 shades of grey on the big screen... and with the kids away... (Wink wink) a home work out! Win Win!

Agreed... much better as a salad dressing!

I hear you on the loss of the chest... my bestie and I discussed that not that long ago. I am not very clothing smart and was upset at the chest loss. She told me about these gel pouches you can get at walmart to slip into bras and introduced me to push up bras (some add 2 sizes!) why is the chest always the first thing to…

My youngest is 4. Baby weight is stubborn. I was 210 at my highest. I'm in my early 40's. Sometimes I get creative with my exercise... I roller skate, bike ride, wii just dance. I miss my pre-kid body though. I have about 40 more lbs to lose to really feel good about me. The weight comes off so slowly... but it isn't a…

Ps... I have a brother and he's totally Momma's boy... so it works!

I'm Daddy's Girl through and through, but My Mom is my best friend... I lost my Dad 2 years ago... I can say that BOTH my parents are so special. If your lucky enough to have both parents love them with all your heart. Never miss a chance to say I love you, even if you don't always agree... when they are gone your chance…

Why the heck does every other commercial on tv need to be about food?... seriously, it's disturbing! ...that is not just a random thought - its an every other commercial thought. I JUST WANT TO WATCH TV AND NOT WANT TO EAT!!!

I'm 43 - I want to join too! I've lost 40... gained 15 back over xmas/new years and have lost 7 lbs of the xmas gain...sigh... I have 40 lbs to goal. I have 3 kids. Life is crazy... but I love mfp!

ALL the best cowgirl/cowboy boots are the ones caked in mud and well broke in... but, if the boots fit then wear them! Cowgirl up!

My weight goes up and down like a yo-yo but I weigh every day too. It helps me stay focused. I work that much harder to behave when it goes up.

I agree with the people who said it depends on the person. Some people you can look at and laughingly say to yourself inside your head "whatever" ...and the right people say that stuff and it is a real "ouch" like a dagger to the heart- I've never let someone else's mean words be my motivation. Realize that sometimes…

For carrots to taste more like cheetos :p

Showing ronrob... Super hero... Hello!

Oh... your in the same boat as me with kids. Some nights I make "kid/hubby" meal and then I modify mine to fit my needs (sometimes making something similar but different). Pizza night, I make homemade pizzas for family then make mushroom cap pizzas or crustless pizza for me... they sometimes have no clue I'm eating…

I use giant mushroom caps for pizza's too... so if you like shrooms, its worth a try! I also found that recipe on pinterest. Be sure you use a pan with an edge because it does get watery... but it's sooooo gooood!

I tried Gordans grilled tilapia with garlic & butter today for the first time (Ive been wanting to re-try fish too) 2 in the box and 80 calories each. I'm still not crazy about fish... but it was tolerable

It lost a bit... Im very sorry for your loss... friend me if want to chat.

I lost my Dad last year. He was in a car wreck 7 yrs ago and I watched him end up as a quad & slowly die for 6 very long years. My therapy through it was music, hot baths, talking to friends A LOT, keep busy, focus on yourself, spend free time fixing your weak spots, and my favorite is long car rides in the country. * A…

I'm not 50 yet... but have a slow burner too. Agree on the scale/weigh foods. I'm pre-diabetic and the best thing I've done for me is using my fitness pal for tracking and eating via the scale (and cutting salts and sugars by cooking my meals... no boxed food). I was a size 20 and I'm now just barely a size 12. Its taken…

Mine showed the other guy... but I'd take you on too!

I seen an ad on tv one time for charcoal activated underwear to keep fart from stinking.
