Ugh Me too, It's eat fast or don't eat at all in our house. I've gotten to the point where I am so tired of being bloated and overstuffed from eating too much to fast that I don't even care anymore. I fill my plate to what I think I can eat and let everyone else fight for seconds.

I'm 4'11' 3/4 and I'm looking to lose about 75 pounds. My Ckw is 200 and my gw is 125. I also want to gain a decent amount of muscle so my gw may change if need be.

Yes! I HATED gym class and I never realized how much it actually helped me stay the weight I was(at least until I started bc) and I would never want to go back because I did not like the people I dealt with,but if I could get myself that active again it would be a godsend!

Being called 'fat' when I was young and not even overweight,just shaped differently than other kids because I'm short led to a very poor self esteem that decayed more and more growing up. Then add birth control,lack of exersize,eating too much fast food because the only money we had fed 3 people and we had to eat what the…

I definitely agree with having her help you cook, so she'll be able to do so for her self when she's older and then she can be involved so she knows what goes in it. Do you know why she doesn't like the meals you make? Maybe there's something you could do differently.

Awesome!

Update: lost 11 pounds total, only 19 to go for me by July 1st. Woo!!

You could try the sugar free options for the Swiss miss, I drink that at times when I'm at work and it's usually 60 calories vs 120, as for the frappe I'd suggest to keep it weekly too. I love frappe's too but I'd drink my week away if I still drank them that often =P (I could never get rid of red meat either, I like…

Since you know that you tend to eat late maybe set aside a pre-made snack that you usually eat with a single serving size. Then you know the calories that will be there and you can build that into your day either working around other snacks or extra exercise. I wouldn't suggest cutting out any full meals though. I'd…

That is my dream omg! Yes!! Lol And fancy dresses :open_mouth:

I definitely support that decision! I haven't been diagnosed with sleep apnea myself but I have noticed since I've gained weight I actually snore before I even am asleep in certain positions, so I hope it helps to lose weight! It's not only annoying feeling myself snore but it's not safe so definitely good luck at feeling…

I used to be one of those people but I completely agree that fast food is soooo much more expensive. For me and my bf to get 1 meal at just about any fast food restaurant it costs about 15-20 dollars a meal. Buying food to make at home, which tastes better anyways, usually costs 10 dollars a meal on average unless it's a…

You Me At Six

If my stove worked better and I was a better cook then I probably would after seeing what my microwave has done to my surrounding electronics... My modem and router only give me have my actual internet service I pay for. Not good.

That is a very valid reason!

That's judgy. Some people work at night or late in the evening. I work until 10 so by the time my dinners done and it's time to eat it's usually past 12.

2 Chainz?

1200 is doable for some people. I personally found when I was at 1200 I was really irritable and tired.

Awesome work on what you've already lost! That's awesome! I can't wait until my weight lost number is that!

Thank you Megan! Negativity is what I'm trying to get away from. It really helps having people working for similar goals.

Failure is a harsh word to use. It's not like I'm going to break into a million peices if I don't reach that goal. I forget now how I got that number, but regardless I've weighed myself for the first time in a few weeks and I'm already 9 pounds down from what I initially thought. I am still going to support everyone else…

You both are taking cookies and chocolate way too literally. It can be any food.

For about 2 years now I've cut ff and soda out altogether and at first it did help lose weight, after a while of course not as much, but I still feel better without. If it ever comes to a point where we eat ff then I try to keep with in at least my calories as much as possible, or at least a more macro conscious meal later.

This isn't me personally, and not just those things, but some people have to avoid some foods other wise they over eat. Maybe a better example in my instance would be like fast food or soda, I used to eat and drink those things so much that if I were to keep those in my diet on a regular basis,even just one cheat day a…

If you're trying to avoid something like cookies or chocolate, that could be considered a cheat snack. Or yeah, something thats higher in calories I suppose
