That probably sounded like I was selling something. No, just in a lot of pain and it has affected my workouts. Looking to see what others have done.

Outside Omaha, NE. Currenly 6 degrees. They cancelled school a couple days ago just because of the windshield that was -25 to -30. My youngest just got over the flu, and now I'm home from work sick. 70 something days until spring! Can't wait!!!

Great question. I could have written this post. I realize that I cannot have cheat weekends because it cancels everything out for the week and I don't lose anything. Doing cheat weekends doesn’t work for everyone. My co-worker does it, and she is able to lose. So I decided to try that route. My body doesn’t like it. She’s…

43 here! Just sent my request!!!

Pizza and cake. Not just any cake, but birthday cake. There is something about birthday cake. I'm ok not buying those things myself, but if it's put in front of me then I have a real issue. If it's in the house, it's calling out to me and I can't concentrate on other things very well. That's just sad lol. My current pizza…

Hi Susan, Looking at all options. I know medication is different for everyone. Hoping I can find the right options. Good luck on your journey!

Syn - thank you for the perspective!

Thank you!! Glad to hear it's working for you!

Thank you! I will look into Wellbutrin :smile:

Hi Wen, Can you tell me which medication you are on? Good job!!

Prozac was the first one I ever tried. It made me see that I had a great life to live. It really opened up doors for me. I will consider going back on that particular drug. Looking at also Zoloft. Thank you for your post and good job on this journey!!

Thank you for your post. I last tried Lexapro, and it made my heart skip beats and gave me a nagging couch. I have tried Zoloft before and it really helped. I gained the weight though. However, I wasn't actively trying to lose like I am now. So maybe there would be a difference. Thank you again, and good job!!!

Thank you Cyn!

Thank you for the perspective. My mental health is the most important thing, adn I need to get a handle on it. Just isn't healthy, and that's why I am here. To get healthy. Thank you again.

Thank you Nikki!

--- Thanks for your post!! Good job!!

Glad to hear it's working for you. I love stories like this!! Thanks for your post!

Thank you - I once stopped abruptly. Never again. I thought for sure I was going to die. The worst stomach pain I ever had and dizzy spells to boot. Thanks for you post.

Thank you - I tried Lexapro and it gave me heart palpitations and a bad cough. I gained a little bit of weight, but I wasn't trying to lose weight at the time. So maybe I would have been able to lose weight on it. I am happy to her you feel better. I know how it is to feel blah. Glad it worked for you!

I step on the scale every single day. All day long if I could. I know that isn't the thing to do. I log on Sunday mornings.

I was thinking about zoloft the other day and wondered if anyone here was on it, and voila! I have been on and off it for the past few years. I always found it difficult to lose weight while I was taking it. It was possible, but I had to work just a little harder. I think it does something to your metabolism. Don't give…

That is awesome!!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Hi NewMommy! I'm not a stay at home mom, but I'm working on it. Hopefully in August. I have a 5 and an 8 year old. I completely understand how it is for the lbs to creep up. My hubby also says I look great, and yes that makes it easier to keep eating the cookies and cupcakes. I joined 21 days ago, and I have lost 5 lbs.…

I know you have received a ton of responses already. I assume most of the people you are referring to met you when you were heavier. Do you think if you met them at this stage, they would want to be your friend? You are a reminder of what they should be doing, but aren't. We all need to take care of ourselves and eat…

Size 8 is perfect for me! That is where I am trying to get now. Currently an 11/12.

80/20 --- A real lightbulb moment for me and thanks!

Thanks so much!

Thank you!

Thank you!!! :happy:

Trying to get used to this really great page. Really interesting on here. I always tried to do this solo, and never really considered sharing my journey. I got a really nice boost reading the comments. Thank you!
