P.s....thank you guys for not giving me "the speech" lol I am sure its coming!

I weigh EVERYTHING even if it comes with the serving size on it I weigh it. I even bring my scale and most my own food when we go to my in laws for dinner. And that weight projection deal is wayyyyy off lol

I am 5'9" I am tall but not super tall...I have 30 more to lose to be at the very tip of a healthy BMI and about 50 if I want to be in the safe area of my bmi

I used to think people sabotaged my weight loss as well...then I realized..I am in control of me...and what I eat.. I am the ONLY one who can sabotage my weight loss...so she is negative and brings "bad" food to work....play her game...bring healthy food to work to share...a fruit tray or vegi tray...assorted meats . ..I…

I accept with ease..only because I know if I don't accept it will go on and on. Lol its just going to take some getting used to...I am pretty introverted (unless I am drinking.....liquid courage) but I don't really drink anymore...so yeah I struggle with attention...guess there are much worse problems to have in the…

Katy Perry 'Roar'!

Ohhh don't get me wrong. I LOVE ...ABSOLUTELY LOVE that they notice..makes me feel all this hard work is paying off...and I probably would be a little discouraged if no one noticed...its when its over load I feel awkward. As I said I have never liked being the center of attention...probably stems from being so over weight…

I agree!! I used to "diet" sure. I would lose weight...but then put it back on...so obviously dieting wasn't really working...now I am changing my lifestyle....does this mean I will never eat a cheeseburger again? No BUT I will make better choices as to when, how many and how often I eat them. My MIL always says..."you're…

I guess my biggest concern isn't losing weight with it...but just its over all health benefits....from what all of you had stated it has good benefits.... And that's good enough for me. :)

Boo...I don't have a camera icon on mine...and no internet right now to do it on PC as we are moving and I cancelled our internet. Thanks for the info though

Thanks guys ....that's pretty much what I've been reading....I had two cups and I am very full...which is probably a good thing

Thanks gals...I know its a lot..its the same 20lbs I've lost 10 times before.. Its the next 30 that scare the hell out of me!

Quality....not quantity....I get by on between 900 & 1200 cals a day (before u flip out its per docs orders) but I eat mostly meat high in protein... Some fruit...vegies...and as few carbs as I can. I also have a protein drink (low carbs and sugar high protein ) to help if I get hungry when I usually don't. 1200 calories…

Unfortunately I don't care for vodka :( I believe my captain has 90 per ounce...I don't dump mine I just don't make a real drink...meaning I tip the bottle but don't let any come out ..everyone else is so caught Up in drinking they don't pay attention lol. I usually don't show up until after everyone else is half in the…

I have lost an automobile tire....find it hard to believe...but that's what the list tells me

He may want that back :)

Yeahhhh....I'm going to do once a week just as a check in and record every 2 weeks and see how that goes

You look awesome! Gives me hope...I am 5'9 and didn't know how far I would have to go. But if you're 5'8 and 175 and I would have your shape I would take it. .wtg!

No, thank you lol

Excellent job EVERYONE!!!!! AND on a side note....HornsbY HUBBA HUBBA AND YUM (sorry if slightly inappropriate)

Good girl lol.....but really keep it up your an inspiration

You look great! And 1000 -1300 isn't bad...as long as its not junk food you can still get all your nutrients met on that many calories...I too stick between 1000-1200 some days even less...not intentionally... But yes some days less...and my calorie goal IS set by my doc.....carry on as long as you feel good...cuz you look…

I don't graph it on paper ..but I store it in my head...that's why I trust the AM weight...it never fluxuates as much as the day or the night weight does...and I am pleased to say it was down 8oz this am ...not the 9oz I was hoping for but I can defietly live with that...I dunno maybe I am to obsessive about it...I can't…

I am on them now...they are not a miracle pill. I put in ALOT of hard work...time...and dedication. What I do like is they help me not feel the urgent need to stuff my face, which in turn let's me make good choices and learn how/what to eat that is healthy. I am on another forum for phentetmine users and so many just take…

I weigh at least 3 times a day and I know it fluxuates...I only go by my morning weigh in and seldom am higher in the morning unless I had a really bad day the day before...I don't get upset when its 3 lbs higher at 7pm than it was at 5am because I know in the morning it will be lower. Just ready to be out of this…

Avocados ! (Kale is really good too but unless you drink it you have to use a lot of it)

My running is not really running...what I mean is....I do have COPD so I run maybe 1/2 a block walk 1/2 a block and so on...and I only do the running part 3 times a week....for one its over 100 here in az even at night just too dam hot to run and two these old lungs can't take that big of a beating...everything else is a…

I will have to look those up (sorry missed them the 1st time) and yes I'm working on everything not just my Abs. Just trying to get stronger in general...I really have very poor muscles and flexibility and as I mentioned balance... I'm a mess lol cardio is hard (I have COPD) but I do a run/walk between 3-8 miles a day (two…

Could you give me an idea on that? Sounds self explanatory but I am new to this part of getting healthy.... Ty for your help :)
