  • I wholeheartedly agree (I'm a middle school social studies teacher). I echo earlier posts: keep drinking water (although not while you're teaching, but while grading or during meetings would be good), and chew gum or suck on peppermints. I also find that listening to music while grading helps.... odd but true. Good luck! I…

  • I agree with the other people on here. No one should have to "put up" with someone else's anger management issues. My ex husband was OCD, and similar issues. I thought I could "put up with it" too, until he started hitting the walls next to my head, screaming and hitting the dog, shoving me. It's been three years, and…

  • The first memory I have of being overweight was when I was 9, and the doctor told my mother that I needed to "watch what I ate" because I was at the top of the percentiles for my height (I was 110 lbs... but I was tall.) I always had a tummy, and had a terrible time finding clothes. Once I hit puberty, I hit a size 14, and…

  • I've found that two-a-day works for me..... well, that and my coffee. :) Again, everything in moderation. And, for those of you that drink "regular" because it HAS to be better.... all that stuff has High Fructose Corn Syrup in it. Not a whole lot better, IMO. It's like everything in life... moderation is key!

  • Oh yes, I eat all of my calories... Starvation mode is definitely not a problem. I actually get myself to exercise by promising chocolate to myself if I do :) Should I eat all of my exercise calories though? I don't quite trust MFP sometimes -- I have a hard time believing that some of the activities I do burn as many…

  • I'd like to join this group, too! I'm having a terrible time getting this weight off, and perhaps a challenge would be good for me! Besides, 7 pounds would put me under 180 for the first time in a year. So: current weight: 186.6 By the end of March: 179.6 Definitely DOABLE!
