And dangerous! Get away from her as fast as you can....unless she has an option where you only pay for help with gym stuff, and the nutrition is up to you?

Do you have your goals set to lose 2 lb a day? You are trying to lose 20, so I'd set your goals to lose either 1 lb., or half a pound a week instead. Also yes, please see a doctor. I am anemic and have to take an iron supplement, but you need to have your doctor do some blood work to see what the issue is.

Well at least she had pretty undies on rather and granny panties or some sort of strange print on them. I would have told her. Its not like you will ever see her again. :)

Bumping cause it would be a shame for this to go away.:drinker:

Excuse you? :huh: I do, and I've lost 40 lb. so far. Yeah its a workout to me.:bigsmile:

What's the point if you don't break a sweat?

Truth! :drinker:

Dang it!! You beat me to it!! lol

I hated it too. I cried when I took my measurements and I almost used the entire tape measure to get around my hips. I almost puked at my before picture in my profile. But now, I am happy I did that, because when I feel like I am not seeing progress, all I have to do is take a picture and compare it to my "before" and I am…

I see a lot of editing of comments happening. :laugh:

LOL I had such a snarky urge to say, "TL, DR, Just break up". And yes, I read it and totally agree! I think we are our own worst enemies and harder on ourselves than our loved ones are. I am glad you are getting rid of that mean side of yourself that makes you feel like crap. :flowerforyou:

For me, my eye opening moment was a plane ride to visit family. It was a 5 hour flight and I was TIGHTLY squeezed into my seat and was trying to fold myself up as much as possible to take up less space. :sad: I've done this for over 105 days now and I lose about a pound a week. I have no deadline and I think this helped me…

For someone who has lost 83 lb., you would think you would understand where she was coming from. Haven't most of us had an eye opening moment like this before we started our own journey to a healthier lifestyle, or are you just a special snowflake who just decided to lose weight for kicks and giggles? OP, that was…

Maybe ask her what she already knows, and than go from there? Kids talk, so she's probably heard stuff already.

They are teeny, tiny, fanny packs! :laugh: :laugh: I didn't know they were making a comeback, but those are pretty neat looking.

Did you take "before" pictures? Take comparison shots for every 10 lb you lose, body and face. You'll be amazed at the changes you see. 10 pounds is a lot!

I am in the same situation. I eat even when I am not hungry and what is worse, is that its WAY worse at night! What has worked for me so far, is saving the bulk of my calories for the evening and having snacks that take time to eat and have a lot of flavor. My favorite snack is raw almonds! They take awhile to eat and I…

I love all rice and have it daily. My favorite is Jasmine, and I just got a bag of brown jasmine rice and a bag of black rice which is really REALLY good!! I'll cook it in chicken stock for added flavor and I save calories for butter and seasonings like garlic.

When my husband makes dinner and hasn't weighed the meat before its cooked, or if he doesn't weigh anything on my plate, I go nuts trying to figure out how much it must have weighed before it was cooked and can't eat till its all weighed. With meats, I will over estimate the weight to be on the safe side, than fret that I…

Angel hair is about 4.5 cooked when I reweigh it.

There is a joke in there somewhere.....

Um...run! A mama's boy will always be tied to her apron strings.

You must be drinking it wrong. Open up your diary and give us your stats.

Divine secrets of the Ya Ya Bacon The Taming of the Bacon 10 Things I hate about Bacon (nothing except once you eat your bacon, you can't eat it.) Bacon Dynamite

Awesome!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Those other stories were just small blurbs. Like someone else already said, this one really needs to be a story by itself:laugh:

I don't care what they put in their food, Taco Bell is awesome!! I don't eat there all the time, but those crunchy supreme tacos are so awesome!

+1 It was way more entertaining to see him figure out how to use his webbing, rather than whip up a batch and automatically know how to use it.

That was hilarious! Now, I want to know what your story was! :laugh:
