Wow girl and I thought I didn't eat enough. But I can't advice you as I been told I don't eat enough either. I am a salad freak and protein shakes. Trying to eat more protein but I rather drink it. Today I finally hit just under 1200. Usually I am between 800-1000. And that is pushing it for me. I am suppose to eat at…

I know that some girls don't like losing their boobs when they drop weight its understandable. I was the opposite. Mine were huge! I truly believe the heavier I got the bigger they got. WIthin the last few years I lost 120 lbs. And to my surprise only went down in number size but not cup size! I was so upset. I went to my…

Kenda I was 279 lbs a few years ago and had huge breast on top of all of this. I couldn't run either. But my doctor said that I didn't need to run to get results as I tried running once and ended up falling to my knees and nearly breaking both my legs. Doctor said that you could doing more harm than good trying to run as…

I'm not sure I will help in this post. I was 279 lbs and lost about 120lbs. Before weight loss I was a 46DDD!! After weight loss I was a 42DDD. I was so angry. My doctor could not believe I lost weight everywhere else but there. Anyways cause a whole slew of problems. Serious backache, headaches, numbness. I was popping…

Take Biotin. It will actually cause your hair to grow and thicken. I know, been taking it for a year after my surgery. My sister in law was getting thin hair and I got her on it and now her hair is thick and growing.

LMAO!!!!! I love it!!!!!:laugh:

Om man do I ever relate to this story! I was 279lbs and now I am 165. I can't tell you the crap I had to hear from the get go! When I got married and announced my marriage at a previous job my closets friends told me I was too fat for my husband! I should start thinking about losing weight because he will defiantly leave…

I have lost over 100 lbs and need to lose the last 30 lbs and my body wont budge now. I have taken all sorts of advice, eat less, eat more, change calories, change workouts and I get down sometimes but I just pick myself up and push through it. I have come this far and darn it I will win this stupid battle! by the way we…

How is it that I can lose over 100lbs and need about 20-30 to go and now can't lose at all? Its late...I'm tired.

OMG I can' stop crying! I am so happy for him!!! Each time he fell and got up I thought to myself how much courage he has and that if he could do that then I could lose my last 30 lbs and stop whining about it. BTW who the heck is the trainer? Yoga instructor? OMG i gotta get into yoga! Thank you this did help me see…

Make me your friend...I have been plateaued forever and ever. I have done what you have done and you wanna hear something else? I recently had breast reduction went from a 46DDD to 36C!!!! Doc said it was about 5 lbs of fat so 5+5=10 right? I kid you not after the swelling went down my weight remained the same before going…

Thank you everyone for your words of encouragement and advice. I have gone to both the dermatologist, endocrinologist and allergist and nothing could be found. All my test came out normal. I don't workout with makeup and I wash right afterwards. To date my face has finally cleared up some with some minor breakouts. Since…

I understand your frustration as I in the same situation. My husband could stand to lose some weight (but only about 15 lbs). But your doing this for you. He shops for his food and I shop for mine and I eat only mine. He makes yucky faces sometimes at my food choices and the hard part is that we had two young children and…

Maybe you will love this. Instead of using the shortening I used applesauce and these were a huge hit at a party I took them too. Cranberry Walnut Oatmeal Cookies Recipe **I bought everything from Trader Joes and organic. Crisco® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray ( I used Parchment paper) 3/4 cup Crisco® Butter Shortening or…

Reading this post I couldn't help to think it was about me. I HAD 46DDD and lost over 100lbs and went from 46DDD to a 42 DDD! So my body got small and my boobs stayed huge. i was so mad. My back hurt all the time, I couldn't exercise. I was your classic case that need a reduction. So in September 2011 I had breast…

My friend is on it. Just started this year. Only lost 14 lbs from what she told me. She said she feels like **** all the time. Grumpy and before that she was doing Crossfit Training and doing quite well so not sure why she switched. Doctor said no Crossfit for her. Maybe walking. She is now depressed and says her body…

You took the words right out of my mouth! But you said it better.

I lost over a 100 lbs and let me tell you underneath it aint pretty. When I lost the weight my breast deflated (I was a DDD, I recently had breast reduction 9/2011). My stomach went from round to now looking like cottage cheese. I am about 30 lbs away from my goal and struggling like hell. Recently my face has decided to…

I hate Banana, but here is what I found out so hope it helps A banana a day keeps the muscle cramps away. Or so you may think. Bananas are high in potassium. They contain approximately 460 milligrams of potassium for a medium-sized banana. Potassium aids in nerve and muscle function and balancing electrolytes and pH level.…

Oh boy can I relate to this topic. Some of my family members are supportive and some are not. The ones who are not tell me crap all the time. Why are wearing clothes like that now? Your not eating very much..is that healthy? Why are trying to lose weight so much so you can find another man? (I am married). Don't you think…

I want this on a tank top!

I used to attend these Zumba classes and this one girl would always arrive late looking like she was going to a club. Her makeup was on so thick, and raccoon eyes. One time a girl next to her asked her if her eyelashes were real. She said yes. Anyways here is the kicker..she reapplies her compact during the break! Who does…

So I had the same problem with my scale not moving or moving up when I have been doing everything right and guess what i found out....My scale is new first of all. But if you weigh your self on a floor that creeks like woods or carpet or vinyl flooring basically a floor that is not too stable anyways I tested this out and…

i just have to say....WTH? I am same weight and height and I wear 12/14. Someone jipped me somewhere!

i want to burn 1600 calories doing nothing! Wonder if i am eating too less. But I cant even get 1400 calories in a day...too much food. I can't eat steak or chicken all day either. I need to get me one of those arm bands.
