Hey, Suzy here. I just had 3 (I know, it's odd) wisdom teeth out on Tuesday and today's Saturday. I"m in a lot of pain, not so nauteous or dizzy, but can't open or close jaw all the way. I keep biting my cheeks. But, I've only been eating apples sauce and yogurt because my cheeks are so swollen. Kids are driving me wild.…

Where do you guys live? I'm paying 3.89 and that's better than the national average of 4.00/gal.

I agree with that the dress size is all that matters. THanks for all the advise.

Quote: You may need to eat more calories per day. How many calories are you eating daily? If you don't eat enough calories your body goes into starvation mode and everything just kind of stops. I'm eating less than 2000 calories...usually between 1,500 and 1,700 like you said about yourself. I should add more? It sounds…

I thought that's what you'd say...I just wanted to make sure I'm doing it the right way...with direction. So, it's ok to not lose weight for a while?...I can tell that my calfs are getting slimmer and more musclular...I can somewhat see more definition in my thighs...but was looking for a pound or so gone. It's fine with…

Ok, so it's been 3 weeks since I've weighed myself...and I just did it again yesterday. The same weight...only a slight difference in high waiste line (in a good way). Is this normal? I'm really not eating that much and exercising more than I plugged in goal chart. Maybe I need to wait a little longer. Looking for…

ok, it's not like that....I ordered a "Free trial" and they ended up not honoring their word. I had to pay for it. THey never answered the phone number or the emails. So, yes, it was accidental. Since the shipping was not free, I payed via debit card...and since they had access to my account, they charged me for the whole…

Thanks...born on the Rio Grande, huh? That's cool. It's not cool here. It's very hot and humid. We stay cool by watering the plants outside and ourselves, too!! You've come quite a ways on your goal. Good Job! I haven't weighed myself in almost a month...because my scale is broken.. I need to get another one. Ok, take care…

Ok, so I picked up the flue from my kids and of course, I didn't feel like eating. Total calorie intake was/ still is less than 1,000 for the last 3 days. Ya, I was a little weak the first day when I ate basically nothing. But today, I have been active around the house and playing with the kids and I didn't need all that…

Hey, I accidentally bought a month supply of wu-yi tea a while ago but have not tried it. My hubby was a little leary of letting me try it before I got some advice. Is this a safe tea to drink? Suzy

This does sound like fun.... Start weight: 145 Current weight 142 4th of July goal 137 final goal 125 Let's do it....

Thanks everyone for the reply's. I haven't been on the message board since I posted this one. But I guess the answer I was looking for was on the lines of.....yes, I tried that too and it worked or no, I tried that and it didn't work. Do you think I should add a different kind of exercise or try to eat less? (it's hard to…

I've been told before that sometimes you'll gain weight before you lose any, especially if you're doing a lot of cardio. I used to be really strong and had a ton of muscle, but after having two kids my activity level plumetted (Not that kids don't keep you busy and on your feet..I mean, I'm not walking to school or playing…

Hey, this is a great post!!! My children are not old enough yet for grade school, but, yes, I do homeschool them in potty training and manners and other such things. I plan to homeschool my children when it comes time for it. I have 5 brothers and 3 sisters and my mother homeschooled most of us for a good portion of our…

I was frustrated, too. I am 23 and have 15-20 pounds to lose (baby fat) and I have been trying for over a year as well. So far, I've lost 4 pounds just by keeping track of the food in and calories out. This type of journaling really helps me to be organized. And the truth is: I still eat almost every thing I want, I just…

Here I go, the first day. I've been trying to kick these last few baby fat pounds for over a year. I just need a little direction. Hope this helps.
