The sad part is that I showed these pictures to one of my husband's friends and he said that Monroe looked "fat" and that the model was "really hot". I promptly punched him in the stomach. No, I didn't, but I was really disgusted by him. The funny part is, he's overweight. :huh: I don't understand men sometimes.

So THAT'S what I've been doing wrong. Darnit! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

In my opinion, a spell is a way of directing your attention and your subconcious thoughts towards something. A weight loss spell will not work unless you work it. We can't trust everything to the gods. Things like weight loss can be helped along, and certainly a spell will help you increase your willpower, but you can't…

My fear with blowing it off would be eating and eating and eating because what you really wanted was pizza. It WOULD be better for you to go home and eat your sandwich and apple, but will you think about the pizza all day, or will you be satisfied with your lunch? I have a problem with not eating what I want, because I…

I just found this and went to the website. If anyone needs to be updated, please go. The parents must be going through some terrible feelings right now. My :heart: is with them today.

WOOOOOO!!!!!!! You are doing SO great!

I'm waiting for my library to get it back in stock! Ahhh!!!! I'll post as soon as I get my little hands on it.

The book that really got my butt in gear was Secrets of a Former Fat Girl by Lisa Delaney. I would check it out if you can find it.

I am the same way. When I started on here my son was 9 months old. I was starting to get into feeling like my eating habits should not transfer to him, because it was unhealthy. So I did it. Exactly the way I quit smoking. When I found out I was pregnant, that was it, because it was affecting him. I started on here and…

Kerri - Just saw your new av! :love: :love: You look HOT!

It was! I take all of those with a grain of salt, because when's the last time you told the truth about your weight? LOL I know I only tell the truth about mine when I'm on the scale and have no choice. And even then I'm like, "NO! I'm wearing shoes and jeans and an extremely heavy pair of socks and..." :laugh: :laugh:…

She's sucking in too. This is a more accurate picture of what she looked like in her early years: Notice she has a little belly pooch, her arms are thick, and her thighs aren't tiny, and I think she looks even more charming for it. She looks like a real woman to me. I stick to my 140! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Edit: It also…

Yeah, I was trying to find the most generalized pictures out there. I know that personally I have had moments when I think I need to look like her. It's sad because a lot of people think that too. It's taken a while but my perception has changed to want to look like the picture of Marilyn, because she looks healthy and…

This is a HUGE issue for me. I won't let anyone take pictures of me, etc. When I look in the mirror, I just feel sick to my stomach. Things that help me are instead of focusing on today's standard of beauty, I concentrate on the standards of my body. I will never ever ever look like a supermodel in today's world, because…

When I count my grocery shopping (which I do, because it can get pretty time consuming), I always use "pushing or pulling a stroller with child" for my exercise activity. I figure it's the most comparative.

Hey CB - I have no idea how hard this must be for you. I can't imagine not having my husband home most of the time (or at least in the same state). I think that he's going to be way more excited to see you than you think. I'm sure his feelings have not changed. If it's really important to you that you are married, why…

So I'm having a really difficult time staying motivated. I'm trying so hard, and I know that I want it, but then at the end of the day when my husband leaves for something to do with his band (which has happened increasingly often), I almost ALWAYS binge on something. And it's very rarely something I really want. Why is…

You are doing SO GREAT, Lindsay! I'm glad to see you back, and I'm really glad that you're doing so well! Keep on keeping on!

I LOVE Chanel Egoiste. Every man I have ever known to wear that cologne smelled like heaven on earth.

Well, I was absolutely crazy about my husband until we had our son and he left me at the hospital when our son was in the NICU. We were an hour and a half away. He just went home and left me to deal with postnatal "issues" :blushing: and the fact that our son was in the NICU and I couldn't hold him very often or anything.…

Steak toaster. What man doesn't want a steak toaster?

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!! I hope some people read the small print. :laugh:

I think that as a community grows bigger, it is almost inevitable that we will all become more comfortable with each other. I personally have found some things people have said to be a little over the top and offensive, but I groan and ignore it and move on to something else. I haven't seen anything on the boards that's…

Stir-fry! Marinade the tofu in whichever marinade sounds good to you all day tomorrow, then stir-fry with veggies. Make couscous with veggie or chicken broth as your liquid, and add diced tomatoes at the end. Easy-peasy.

If I find numerous numbers, I always do an average. Like with the weight lifting, I would put in about 300 calories burned. As far as machines go, sometimes they estimate high, and sometimes they estimate right on, and sometimes they estimate low. The numbers on here are the same way. I figure if you take an average of…

I need some advice, which may sound kind of silly, but I'm really confused as to what I should do. I have been getting my hair done by a really fabulous stylist that I now consider a fairly good friend. We have dinner occasionally, exchange e-mail, etc. She owns a salon, so my family always gets reduced price haircuts,…

Almost 14%! I'll take it! :smile:

If you can, try to find an Angel Food Ministries location near you. They have great cheap boxes of food. We get one every month. http://www.angelfoodministries.com/ Sometimes it's not the best or healthiest food in the world, but everything can be portioned and stretched a little further (not to mention made healthier) by…

Don't count calories. That's really the only way to do it. :smile:

For those of you who are new and don't know me from Adam, I found out I was pregnant about a month ago. And then about a week or two later, I disappeared from MFP. Well, we lost the baby. It was terrible, and emotional, and I ate and ate and ate myself crazy because I was depressed. I wasn't a very good mommy to my son for…
