Amazing job!!

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing! I just checked out this website and there are TONS of good ideas on here :)

Thank you! Same to you!!!

My husband made a healthy dinner of turkey kielbasa, sweet potatoes, and a spinach salad. He left for work shortly after dinner. Then I proceeded to eat 3 Oreos, a small bag of Doritos, a packet of trailmix, a Fiber One bar, and had a handful of salad croutons. I ate like 900 extra calories :/ You are definitely not…

Glad you posted this! I binged on junk this evening and am feeling guilty. I came on here to look for tips or support from others who have the same issue. I'm feeling bummed because I did great all day up until now. I'm trying to figure out what made me do it. IDK if it's because there was a Danish and some doughnuts…

Add me as a friend! I'm starting over today as well :)

Not sure what the doctor would prescribe, but a common diuretic is Lasix. The generic is Furosemide and most pharmacies have a low cost prescription plan. At Walmart you can get a 30 day supply for $4. A 90 day supply is $10. It doesn't matter if you have insurance or not, just as long as you have a prescription from your…

I've lost weight doing both and I think either way is great. It was nice going to the gym to use all the machines and lift weights. Some gyms can be costly, but my friend belongs to a Planet Fitness and she only pays $10 a month. ( I think that's what it's called) Right now I don't belong to a gym. I'm walking/jogging…

Just a thought...are you eating more foods that have artificial sweeteners in them like fat free puddings and such? I have a friend who gets horrible headaches if she eats too much of it. Alot of the fat free foods contain it. Could or could not be related. Next time you get one (hopefully they stop) see if you can pin…

Add me as a friend! I'm right there with ya and I also work in nursing :)

I think that being your natural skin tone is just fine! I have blond hair and fair skin. I've already had Melanoma and I plan on staying out of the sun for my health. I've tried self tanning lotions in the past like Jergens Natural Glow and I just don't care for the streaks they leave.

I crave sweets everyday and it's always after I eat dinner. It's like I've trained my body to automatically want chocolate at that time. This week I'm trying to keep myself busy so I don't think about it. Actually being on here and responding to posts keeps me so preoccupied I havent really eaten any sweets at all :) Thank…

That's a good way to handle craving sweets. I like that :)

Maybe you should make a Dr's appt and just have some baseline labs checked. Maybe your thyroid levels are off.

I'm the heaviest I've ever been. Even when I was 9 months pregnant I didn't weigh this much. I know how I got this way, but I'm embarrassed even more that I let it happen. As of Monday, I'm laying down the law!!!!!

You are so not alone on this one!!! I struggle with this every single day! Feel free to add me as a friend if you ever need to vent or chat :)

Feel free to add me! I'm looking for friends and support as well :)

Please add me! I'm looking for friends and support also :)

My family and I went horseback riding. The horses had a 250 # weight limit. The workers called me out in front of everyone and made me get on the scale to make sure I didn't exceed the weight limit. Luckily I was able to ride, but I was humiliated!!

I'm from Michigan. Next month headed to Chicago for Lollapallooza!!!! Can't wait :)

I have a larger bone structure so I'm aiming for 160-165. Not sure about the clothing size though.........

I completely understand!! I lost about 40 lbs. two years ago and have gained every single pound back plus a few.. Over the past few months I have been really beating myself up about it and wondering how I could let this happen. It's really effected me in a negative way. I've been on and off MFP for the past year, but have…

I cooked a very healthy dinner for my family and stayed on track with my calorie budget :)

You're AMAZING!!!!

OMG I have the same problem!!!!! It's only 11:23am and I've already had breakfast, plus I've eaten 2 cookies when I know I shouldn't. It sucks because I know exactly what I need to do, and I want it, but I can't stop doing all the wrong things!!

Having an "off " day. Just ate 3 cupcakes without even thinking it through. I added it to my log and I'm cut off for the rest of the evening......

I have 2 horrible problems and binge eating is one of them. I'm great during the day, but at night every thing falls apart. My other problem is that no matter how hard I want to, I don't follow through on anything. I tell myself "Tomorrow will be different. I'll be better and I'll exercise instead of binge." I feel like…

You just made my day :) Congrats and thanks for sharing. You look wonderful!!!!
