I lost weight on Topamax...however, I was prescribed them because of my seizure disorder. I was never hungry and lost 20 pounds. I looked great. Problem: I never ate because everytime I would eat or drink something it had what I called a copper flavor, like f I was sucking on a penny. It was awful. I had headaches everyday…

I am not on antidepressnts, it is seizure medication. But I have been on seizure meds since I was 18, so 14 years now. I switched to a newer medication that is better for you compared to the old med that had not so good side effects. I portion my food, drink 12-15 glasses of water a day, watch my calorie intake, am very…

I have my diary open to my friends (I have 5 college friends that we send support to via MFP and emails). I just dont open it to the public. I know I am eating healthy, my doctor and trainer said it's good. My trainer wants to to start having a protein shake with a scoop of lain oatmeal in it for breakfast. I'm going to…

I have big thigs and a big ole' booty too!! I am In LOVE with DKNY jeans!! They are not too expensive...$50. I know it sounds alot but aren't some of Old Navy jeans like $39? And I actually just got a pair on sale at Dillard's last Sat for $35!! I always get the boot-cut style. They just fit me awesomely. Good luck.

I want to be 185lbs when I meet my boyfriends parents for the first time at Thanksgiving!! If you need any teaching interview tips, let me know!! (I am so happy to have a GOOD class this year!)

Thanks everyone...I know, log, log, log. I guess I just need to step up my game. Maybe if i'm lucky I can drop 4-5 piunds before school starts on the 22nd. And lsmiii...you're comment about your looks randomly thrown in made me smile! Well I am out visiting my boyfriend in California and I want to go lay by the…

Hello beautiful tall ladies! I am visiting my boyfriend in Cali, so let's just say he is a man...no scale, no measuring tools! But before I left I was 207 and I am fairly big boned (my fingers just barely touch each other). I have no idea my measurements and am scared to find out (I have gained 60 pounds). I see such…

I have a decent pair of shoes now...but I will definitely get a great pair when I get paid this week! Monday is spin at the gym, so I will not be running anyway! Thanks for all the great advice so far guys! I feel amazing right now!

Someone asked me that last week in the grocery store...No lie, I looked her straight in the face and said "No, i'm just fat, but thanks!" and then I walked away! You should have seen her jaw drop! Hopefully she learned her lesson!

Thanks guys!! One of you said it was painful to sit down on the toilet, that is totally me! I am only using 5lb weights. I do not have lighter ones, maybe I will use a soup can and try again tomorrow! Haha!! I rested up today and look forward to trying again. If I can't bend and squat tomorrow, I am going to hit up the…

First, awesome on the weight loss!! I have dropped 1 pound in the last 3 weeks..so I am depressed. How did you lose 7?? You get past the cheeseburger and fries by being happy that you are 7 pounds down...what would you really rather have...the food or the weight loss?!

If I didn't live on the complete opposite side of the U.S I would totally work out with you!!

I would give anything to have the weight melt off!! I haven't lost eally anything, and it is depressing. I am terrible at running...and actually running for me is a really fast walk! I am ultimately aiming for 150..and would give anything to just have 10-15 melt off for right now and then go from there.

I am 5'11...and so glad you posted this for all us tall girls! I currently am 200, and miserable :frown: About 3 years ago I was 145, strong, healthy and loving it...the weight just crept on and I have no idea how I could let it. I would give anything to get back down to 150...but right now I am focused on 185, that is my…

I am not eating too little calories. And I have been eating healthy, nice healthy foods for breakfast and solid protein lunch and dinner...and I am definitely not over exercising. I work out hard, (I am actually loving working out again), but I am by no means over-doing it. I know losing 10 in 3 weeks isn't realistic, but…

How do you join a challenge group? I am starting the 30 day shred tomorrow and I know I will be 2 days behing you...but I would love to be apart of a group for motivation!!

Thanks everybody!! I actually joined a gym a couple weeks ago...but of course got bronchitis and pneuomia, so I was out for the count...then went away for spring break (teachers need that break too!!). I was thinking YOGA. I know it is great for you, and having an hour of quiet time sounds lovely! I am not sure I am…
