I am the same way, I do not post about weight loss on my FB, but I don't post anything personal on FB, I go on there like you to read articles and chat and what not, however, when I hit my 50# mark....damn straight I am posting it! don't know if I will include pics at all....but I am sharing my 1st big victory!!

I am so sorry for your loss...it is not easy I know. I lost both my parents and my older sister with in 4 years of each other. The only advice I can give is take care of yourself....the loss will try and consume you..and there will be days it succeeds and that's OK. But the days you manage better than others take care of…

Not worried about weight gain with eating before bed...I just don't like going to bed after eating...I don't seem to sleep as well...I guess I am most concerned about logging...I know how I get when I work overnights...eating in its self can be a chore...its going to get interesting lol

How about just a WAY TO GO!!!!! I am a firm believer in non-processed/slightly processed food....but I am also a firm believer on the calories in/ calories out theory (doesn't mean I'm right lol) but I figure if you're going to put in the effort to losing weight..may as well go big and eat healthier food!! I am by no way a…

Wtg! Doing great! And what an insperation you are!!!!

Not un relaxed at all :) wasn't asking for help or advice .... Was making a statement. ..BUT in his and everyone's defence I guess everyone's entitled to state their opinion... I just need to get used to ppl posting their opinion when it wasnt asked for. Not being sarcastic...stating just one of my many faults

Please let me know if this is too personal but what are your stats...height weight age....I was an over weight teen...and struggled....now I am 40 and struggling...but I also had friends that were 10 lbs more than they should have been and struggled as well....(I have been at least 50lbs over weight since I was like 11 or…

You still here?

Sorry I was not more specific...I thought by saying I wasn't going to make it I was implying I was going to get as close as I could...forgot the audience ! Have a nice night :).....oh....and since you are being so literal....I did not call you a donkey I said you were making one of yourself....translation : you are acting…

I do not recall setting 21lbs as a goal...I said I would like to be there.... I would also like million dollars in my bank account...and bigger boobs. I think maybe now you are just trying to argue but are really doing nothing more than making a donkey of yourself... I however am done with you....have a wonderful…

I guess the definition of unrealistic really shouldn't even matter since I stated I wasn't going to make it but was going to get as close as I could....but to argue your point 21 Lbs in 6 weeks IS realistic.... people do it all the time

I jad two months where I just maintained...and thank you for reading my post and not skimming through it to see what negative comment you could make...and yes I will be content with any loss...happy with more....and simply amazed if I get close lol

Not unrealistic...very doable...if I want to screw everything up I've worked so hard for. I can lose 20 in a month...just not in a healthy way...as I said I would love to be 170 by new years but I won't make it...but I'm going to try (because if I try...maybe I will lose ten or 15....) If I dont push a little harder it…

I thought about calling. I know what I want to eat so I can look if they have the info there...... Run....that's all I found too :(

I think its great how people who know nothing about you but a couple of numbers can determine you are doing something wrong or harmful when obviously if we're here we have all had a weight issues at one point. Every person. Is different if we weren't losing weight would be easy.... My doc has me on a lower cal diet with…

Pitctures of shedding? And no ....I won't ..because u will continue to go back and forth and I am 40 not 14 ...so u don't agree with me OK ..youre untitled to your opinion .....and I have no desire to try and change yours or anyone's....again...thank you for the reminder of why I don't come into forums...I have children at…

Jugg we could go back and forth all day...you do it your way I will do it mine... Wino....don't recall asking any questions about cravings....do you not know the difference between a ! And a ?

Dianne.. I appreciate the link...and I did read it, I just don't happen to agree with it. Fasting every once and a while is something I so that helps me...just like some people count carbs and not calories...some people calories and not fat or sugar...I also do not believe in starvation mode....just as you can show me a…

I'm not at a platue after 19.5 hours...I've been fasting that long Let's see toxins and junk out of my system.... If I have to name you one u have no clue about nutrition I am not here looking for advise...I didn't see "advise on nutrition " when I clicked here... And MANY MANY people would agree with fasting for 3 days to…

#1. I enjoy juicing and believe it is a good detox #2. Doesn't hurt at all to re-boot now and then #3. It generally helps get me past a platue (which it does for many people)

Thanks everyone....I still don't see it (isn't that awful I still feel huge) but I hear a lot of ppl have a hard time adjusting to losing weight...I'm still a big girl...just not as big

Mine was ...I am fat...but healthy - I have always had awesome test results from the doc. Low b/p cholesterol was great...everything except my weight was below average ...no signs of developing diabetes... (I do have COPD but I would have that even if I was 110 lbs) until right before I turned 40. Bp still really good and…

This question baffels me. How did u gain weight if you can't eat enough calories.... Obviously at one time she could eat enough calories and didn't move too much (not being rude just speaking from my own experience) but the whole purpose of MFP and changing your lifestyle is just that...changing your life style...when you…

Are you weighing your food? I thought I was eating 1200 a day until I bought a digital scale. ..now I weigh EVERYTHING even bring my scale with me when we go to my in laws for dinner.

Gump you're a genius! Of course at one time I over ate... Binged...didn't exercise.... But isn't the whole purpose of mfp to change your lifestyle to not over eat and be lazy?? Now that I eat better food I don't get hungry or have the desire to binge eat...not to mention I have learned self control and I don't eat when I…

I love them too...great idea!!

WOW! thank you! Its people like you who have lost so much and have really changed their life that keep me going. Make me feel guilty about complaining that losing 50lbs is to hard. I have 26 more to go on my journey and I CAN do this. The struggle is the same for all of us..but you are living proof it can be done and I…

I am not keeping them this low intentionally...its just I don't eat if I am not hungry. I do work out ...almost every day. But I am a stay at home mom and don't get the daily activity besides cleaning the house that I got when I was working. My job before becoming a stay at home mom were very strenuous and I did eat more…

Lack of support can be so hard. We all say things out of spite now and then...even those of us who claim we never would. If this is on going then I would seek out other options such as seperation or counsoling if you could get him to go. You have 3 kids... Just walking away as of right now (if this is an uncommon thing…

Meat!! Usually shrimp/chicken Green peppers and red onions and garlic!! Protein shake with unsweetened cashew milk :)
