Great names

great job!

I think you need to tell him how these comments make you feel. I can be very sarcastic and say things in a "joking" manner at times. I has been a true eye opener when someone calls me out on my comments to say that that what ever I said hurts them. I have learned over time that what may be funny to me isnt to whomever. If…

wow. I'm feeling the oatmeal craze. Great ideas everyone

I'm so glad to see I am not the only one who struggles with overwhelming temptations.

didnt work. oops.

Dallas, TX :wink:

good to hear... I can shave off a few cals to save for the night. thanks

?... was I suppose to give up coffee?

I am so happy to hear I am not the only one with this addiction while at work. I love Fridays because my supervisor is off and I have a little more freedom :laugh:

is it bad to eat more later at night?

good advice. It is probably stress and/or boredom. Your right. I need to work through it and stop myself. thanks.

I have to do weekly. I wont even bring a scale into the house. I weigh in at work same time each week to keep motivated, otherwise I would become discouraged if I didnt see some progress.

I applaud your efforts. I have been watching my food for almost 2 weeks and havent started exercise. When my family and friends start with their opinions, I try to tell them that if I dont do it slow and small changes it wont be a long term solution. I am trying to improve the way I eat and lose weight without going…

I knew a girl named Stormy Knight. Thought she was joking at first.

Wow! I thought it was just me. The past few days I have been inching over my cals each day. I NEED TO GET MOTIVATED AGAIN!!

great job. it really helps when family is on board!

Dallas Texas is in the house!!

Add me too! I have 100+ to lose and want to stay motivated. On my second week lost 4 so far :happy:

I can relate... I had a terrible night after kids went to bed fighting the munchies. I did much on ok stuff but feel so guilt ridden today. We can encourage each other to get back on track

I love the droid app. Esp the scan ability

I can't thank you guys enough. This has been so helpful I can't wait to go shopping now. I was dreading it before seeing myself wondering around aimlessly. lol

Thanks again.. I was wondering what is the difference between greek yogart and reg?

this is wonderful thank you, thank you, thank you. I knew y'all would have great ideas!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for all of the ideas. Is melba toast low carb?

thanks for asking... I was hoping I would find it somewhere.

thanks for the advice... I think I will try to do it weekly because I am the type that would obsess over the numbers and feel discouraged etc. thanks again.

the MIO drops for water are great because you can adjust to your taste. I get them at Kroger.

I was successful on Atkins several years ago and of course gained the weight back. I have found anytime I try it again it isnt as successful. I read an article posted on the Atkins site that it is common for this to happen. It seems your body remebers and doesnt respond they way it did the first time. The article does go…

I do okay at work but right before bed is really tough for me. Usually by then I have eaten all my cals for the day but I am learning to spread them out more so I have that buffer to help me.
