And according to this article, I'm spending about $15 extra yearly on gas for the car: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/09/gas-mileage-costs-affected-by-drivers-weight_n_1951174.html

According to that article, I'm carrying $1400 around on me.

Oh now this is good! I think I found my answer! http://drpennypincher.hubpages.com/hub/Average-American-is-Carrying-700-Dollars-They-Dont-Know-About-Or-Want

Great job losing weight!!!:love:

I am going to do this today! Great suggestion!

:love: Best quote of the day

You look great!!! How many carbs do you consume a day at this point?

I agree with some of the comments...People always see it in my face first...

Good job!! Thanks for sharing your story!

I would roll them up on or two times and they would look great!

Atkins chocolate coconut bars are the best!!!

I just went shopping and I saw the cutest dress that I want to get into!!! This is my motivation. Plus, getting on MFP more will help too...

Great response Rockmama72! I have been there too...:happy:

Yes, yes, yes... My friends kids do it and it is like scrapping your nails on a chalkboard...

Old Navy has great jeans to help with this problem

FREAKING EXCELLENT!

EXACTLY! You stopped her in her tracks!

I have a friend whose stepdaughter has brought up the fact that her mom refers to her as "skinny *****" and the stepdaughter is actually starting to call my friend it in joking. She said the next time it happens, she's going to refer to her mother as a fat ***** and that it's one's choice to be fat or skinny. Her mother is…

These are quite clever! Thank you!!

Great job! How tall are you?

No, she's just curious. Leave her alone and let her ask her questions without getting your back up.

Absolutely true. Fix the issues. The guy who is a moderator here that lost 330 lbs had to fix his issues as to why he was eating.

This is a VERY valid question and I'm not going to digest the prior pages too much. Counting calories has to take place in order to reset and learn where one went wrong. Same as getting a scale and weighing foods or measuring. OP is correct in that it IS a stepping stone or "baby step" to getting it straight. Some folks…

Completely disagree with this statement. In a marriage you need to support each other. If wife is struggling, lend her a hand of support, not blindly expect her to "be like hubs." That's short sighted and ignorant.

This is awesome and I'm saving it!

The OP deactivated her acct.

I say do it. It's a small price to pay for everyday happiness. I have 3 friends that did it and they LOVE theirs. One did it postpartum, one was 25 yrs old, the other was 47. Let's break it down. They paid 5,000-6,000... They last 10 or more years but lets just say 10. That's 3,650 days divided by $6,000 equals only $1.64…

......sounds like a mixed bag here....

bump Been wondering about this one.
