Yes, this is exactly how it sounds in my head. Generally, I just ignore her. I can usually handle it for a few hours or so, but we ended up in the same hotel room out of town for the weekend. After a few days I just head for the cake and don't look back.

Wow! Is that even the same guy? You look amazing!

I like to grab a handful of pistachios. They take so long to get out of their shells and stuff that it keeps me entertained and distracted so I can still feel like I munched and passed the time.

A comment after my own heart (attack). Deep frying makes it safe, right? Those deep fried Twinkies are gonna preserve me from the inside!

I finished it, and then kept right on running for a few months but found that i missed the little voice telling me to keep going and such. I am now re-doing C25K at a faster pace than my first go-around.

I am too broke to buy new clothes. I can lose weight or go naked. I choose to lose weight and then go naked! Best of both words.

This is great. Congratulations!

What, no love for the scale babies? Leather babies? Feather? ...wait, I think leather baby is something else entirely....

I don't know if this will work for you, but what ha worked for me so far has been a combination of two contradicting things. Pay attention, and get distracted. I started trying to pay more attention to what I was actually eating. By that I mean, really savoring and tasting the food. Have a hankering for some Oreos? Fine,…

I'm so sorry you're in this situation. I'm afraid that you're gonna have to accept the fact that the only one who can really make a change in your mom's life is her. You can, however, nudge her along. Maybe you can push her towards seeing therapist or a counselor to get her into the mindset of wanting to change. If not,…

Ugh, i hear you on the water. What is it about it that you don't like? I always thought I hated water, but it turns out that I just hate room-temp tap water. I have a water bottle with a filter in it and I keep it in my fridge. Voilà, suddenly the water isn't so bad. Also, you didn't fail, you just learned a new way of not…

Alternating Couch to 5k and Strength&Flex podcasts is a great way to start. http://www.nhs.uk/LiveWell/c25k/Pages/couch-to-5k.aspx http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/strength-and-flexibility/Pages/Get-fit-with-strength-and-flexibility.aspx

Oooh, you must tell me more...

Box of triscuits and can of that aerosol cheese stuff. In one sitting. Ugh...

It is really a simple question: Is looking good in wedding pictures more important than starting your married life together? Some people are fine with never getting married. I know a couple with three kids and 20 years together that never felt the need for marriage. Some people don't need an "engagement". My husband never…

Client at my job sees me every month. Keeps asking when I am due. Actually got mad at me when I insisted that I am not now nor have I ever been pregnant. I've been there for like 3 years, so unless I'm in my 8th trimester...

Oh, wow, you look amazing!

Got a free treadmill on craigslist, hid it in my basement, and started jiggling along...
