uh wait... when you sit down you get rolls... yeah, that happens to even the skinny people of the world, no way to lose that honey, sorry...

I'm more of a comfort eater than a binge eater. What's worked for me is trying to fit it into my calories for the week (if not that day). Sometimes you have to treat yourself and not feel guilty about it. So you do it, document it and move on. I try to avoid purchasing certain foods if I know I can't control the…

First off, congrats on the weight loss! I'm sure you already are starting to notice a change in how your body feels day to day! Super proud of you! I don't have near the amount of weight to lose as you do, but I have the same problem right now with the "excess" skin. I've noticed that if I wear certain things they tend to…

I've had my fitbit flex since April. And with it, I've noticed I tend to get off my butt more so I can set off the 10,000 step alarm everyday (admittedly there are days I don't hit it, but definately make up for it on days I work so it evens out some). I keep it set to dominate arm since I equally use both arms for various…

AMEN! I joined two dating sites and one of them I quit after two days. The other I've been on for a little over a year and only been on one date and that date was a dud for the most part.

Most of us have been to the point you are at. Hating ourselves for various reason's. Finally something snapped in our brains or with us physically and we HAD to make a change. As another poster said, he was going to be put on blood pressure meds, I WAS put on blood pressure meds at age 35, I was told to lose weight and I…

After I was diagnoised with high blood pressure I pretty much cut back that day, I got a fun water bottle and I keep it filled with ice water. I only drink soda with meals or if I can feel a headache coming on. Best thing to do is find out what works for YOU.

I have boobs, but because I don't show case them I don't get friend request for the wrong reasons. I only want people who are actually going to support me in my weight loss vs someone hoping to get a boobie picture

depends on how much you have left to lose to be honest, looking at your photo, I would highly suggest no more than .5kg

I love cottage cheese, I normally get the 4% small curd like others here, I typically add salt and pepper to it, but once in a while I will add pepperoni (particularly the smaller pepperoni made for salads) or eat it with potato chips, using the chips as my spoon. Seeing all the options others have posted here though makes…

ohhhhhhhhhhhh good idea! I'll have to try that!

so long as you eat at a deficit you will lose weight, since you aren't going to be as active (I don't know what you currently have your activity level set at) I'd set your activity level to a lower setting.

I have a fitbit and work retail, I LOVE it simply because there are days I'm extremely active and days I'm not so active. It helps me to know how much I'm actually burning throughout the day to figure out what to fit into my diet for that day.

logging my cleaning/housework!

AMEN! Having been in the group of women who's been well-endowed since puberty, it kinda sucks at times (specially when trying to find cut tops that fit your boobs and your waist

while this topic give me hope that I won't lose my boobs, it's also making me cuss, I'm already a DD in up size... I don't wanna go up anymore than that... :(

I don't have premium and every week get an e-mail telling me my averages and other stuff

Yes, and it wouldn't surprise me if you're burning a lot more than you think having a young one to chase after!

I typically eat at least two eggs a day if not more. The cholestrol in eggs is actually GOOD for your body, it's not the bad cholesterol. :)

Are you around TOM? Women tend to "gain" water weight at that time. Otherwise, don't weight yourself after indulging for a few days. Wait a few days and hop back on the scale. (Scared myself not too long ago with that fun)

I was drinking roughly 3 liters of soda a day. I cut back soon as the doctor told me I had hypertension to about 2-3 can's a day. For some reason I can't completely shake it, but a lot of times I don't even finish a can now and end up tossing half of it away. I drink a lot more water now and it's helping to flush the…

this! I lost 10lbs within a few days when I first started just cause I cut back my soda intake and was drinking more water. Some of the people at work freaked out on me about losing so much so fast till I had to "confess" how much soda I was really drinking a day.

I have hypertension, I'm also at risk for several other nasty little diseases from my family medical background. Easiest thing I can honestly tell you is try to hit your protein and your calories. When your grocery shopping look at the back of the packages and try to find what has lower sodium. (ie When I was first told I…

my favorite customer was very flamboyant... and bought 16 POUNDS of banana's, 12 dark blue towels and a pool hose... yeah I didn't ask questions...

People still use the fitbit group... it might take some time for an answer because either they don't know the answer, or no one in the group is at their computer... or, you didn't even try to post in the group... but to answer your question. Yes you will still get an accurate reading, but if you have a lazy day fitbit will…

Fitbit is more of an actual TDEE calculator. Even when you aren't active you are burning calories, I enter any exercise that isn't step based into MFP as well as my food. I let Fitbit do it's thing and just check it to see where I am for my steps. Since I use both hands to do many different things (left handed writer and…

nothing, but you seem to have been blessed!

well my ex-husband has to take the tops for me... not only did I catch him lying to me multiple times, including cheating on me with his ex-girlfriend who was also married, but he would make little comments to my younger sister (didn't find out about most of them till I was divorced). Seven years after our divorce he…

CONGRATS!
