Congrats on the weight loss -- you've worked so hard to get where you are today and intelligent people will recognize that. I've also used a "tool" to assist with my weigh loss -- it's called a treadmill. Does that mean my weight loss is "not natural" as well? Oh man -- I've used my computer too -- and my TV and my…

We have struggles with our 11 year old too. My suggestion would be to have someone unknown to your child observe his behavior in the classroom. As a graduate student working on my social work degree -- I provided case management services for a local behavioral/mental health center. I was frequently assigned to schools to…

The goal was to lose 10 by end of May :) Check page one for the team captain you need to message :)

I vote that it's not --- I'm believe the more the merrier. Susank66 you'll be on my team -- I'll send you a friend request. jkwilson300 -- you're going to be with my very capable co-captain yenohamk -- just shoot her a friend request with your starting weight -- weigh ins are Fridays...and we post results Sunday (or try to…

Back in my gardening days -- we would make pepper fries -- slice up your peppers (we used banana and jalapeno) -- slice into strips -- spray a pan with cooking spray throw in the peppers and spray again -- bake at high temp like 400 for a few minutes -- we'd sprinkle salt, garlic, seasoned salt (what ever was handy)…

Definately not a failure!!! Look at the wonderful thing you are doing for your body. Remember -- not all of your success will be measured on that scale. Look for other signs -- such as inches lost, better sleep, better skin, better circulation, clearer thinking just to name a few. I also agree with the other poster who…

Oh man -- I am having flash backs from high school. You know -- cliqueville. In my school we had -- beautiful, athletic, smart, goth, and stoners. And then there was me -- or at least it felt that way. Just not quite enough of anything to fit into any one of the groups. So I'll admit -- i didn't "get" the post. I didn't…

I'm still waiting to get out of the ugly duckling stage. I can count on 1 hand the number of people who have told me I'm beautiful and I honestly felt that way at that moment. 2 of them are my children :) OP -- I think you are poetry. Not everyone is going to "get you" or "like you" or see how beautiful you are. And I…

I had some late entries -- But I wanted to make sure they got to see themselves in the chart. I'm so proud of everyone. This journey would be so easy if it's all we had to do everyday. But the reality is we all have lives in addition to getting healthy. I'm so impressed that everyone works so hard to keep everything…

Loved it -- I usually can't watch those kinds of movies -- but i was riveted. Natalie Portman is beyond amazing.

Congrats honey -- there's nothing like "seeing" the results of your hard work. That's tangible proof of how amazing you are!!! I'd keep it -- and whenever you feel like something is too difficult to accomplish -- whip that sucker out and and remind yourself that you can do anything!!!

Sorry its a late entry-- here's my amazing Purple group. I am so proud of everyone!!! I hope we're all having a great week -- staying focused on our goals, taking care of our bodies and minds.

Did anyone else just lick the computer screen or just me??

Aldi's is awesome :) The only think I would caution is the fit n active mini cupcakes.....at first I thought I was in heaven - - they did not taste diet at all -- but within the hour i was miserable. But the rest of their line is really good and Aldi's regular prices beat most items at your other big stores. Happy shopping…

Best Forum EVER!!!! Pretty sure I gained weight just reading thru these -- here's my own Death Row Last Supper: tamales with hot sauce and guacamole. Deep fried broccoli under melted cheese with buttermilk ranch to dip Followed by a bucket of KFC -- original and crispy, mashed taters and gravy A plate of Red Lobsters…

WOOT WOOT!!! to everyone for working so hard this week. My weight from last friday was 223.2. After a few beers Friday, not eating well over the weekend and Aunt Flo visiting -- Monday morning found me at 227.7 (blech!!!) So this morning -- my weight is (da da da daaaaa) 224.8. While I'm OFFICIALLY 1.6 lbs gained for the…

i know I'm not your team captain -- but -- what I've been asking my members to do is send me a private message (cuts down on searching all of the forum posts) AND post it here for the whole group to see. We want to encourage and support each other!!! Hope that helped a bit :)

Hugs to all of you -- None of us deserved this kind of treatment.....people can be so cruel and heartless. I didn't even realize I was chubby till 3rd grade. Long story short -- my biological mother was killed in a car accident and I was placed in foster care. A year later I was adopted by a family. What followed was the…

This is a great comment -- thank you for posting it.

Thank you KN -- that comment was out of line....very much uncalled for.

Jumpin on the Team Captain Bandwagon -- Ditto the above -- You're stuck with me if your screenname starts with Q-X. Lookin forward to celebrating with all of you!!!!

I think that regardless of the moderator's warnings this has continued to be a religious and political topic. Today -- the death of Osama is the white elephant and for that I see the purpose behind the post. I have my own views about 9/11 and the tragic wars that followed. My deepest sympathy goes out to the families that…

Non scale victory -- I had to ask too :)

I just sent you a friend request :) Guessing it was the space -- my username is SommerJo (all ran together) Thanks!!

Wow!!! Great job everyone!!!!! Those numbers are amazing....if I added correctly -- it was a total of 186.6 for all of us.
