Ok, it's official I am going to the YMCA and joining up! I can't take it any longer. Doing it on my own is just not working. Maybe if my money is going somewhere I will be more willing to go. Wish me luck:)

Ok, so today is my 28th bday and I'm eating! We're going to Red Lobster, my treat and one that happens every other year. So, my start day is officially tomorrow... I have been walking every night and trying to watch my eating but with no luck. So what am I doing wrong? I can't go to the gym and workout for 4 hrs a day, I…

TELL ME!!! Whats the secret to losing that much weight so fast?

There are meds for anxiety that you only need to take when you are having the anxiety attack, if that is what you are having. Don't stray from your doctors suggestions but do what is good for you and your body.

Wow, I must be a bad mommy, I can't wait for my son to go back to pre-school and then kindergarten hopefully next fall. I just feel so happy that he gets to try new things that it doesn't bother me that he's gone. He's growing up so fast but he's doing it so well.

We fast at the beginning of every first Sunday for 24 hours. It used to be very hard for me to do too! I think your mind set and your body just have to get used to it, plus you have to keep in mind why your doing the fast in the first place. Good luck!

She will be in my prayers tonight. I commend her on her decision to continue with her pregancy. That can be very difficult but I believe that she will be blessed no matter the outcome. :smile:

Don't give up!!! It can take awhile to make any head way. Just this morning I took a step on the scale also, I lost another pound but it has practically taken me 2 weeks to do so. But that one pound does count.

Just take each day at a time! If you fall of the wagon start new the next day or even the next hour. The fact that you are able to work out 5 days a week makes me so... I'm hoping off the couch and going on a walk!

Welcome and I hope you are able to achieve your goals! Good Luck

I work in a lab, so we were goofing around and we decided to check all our thyroids. Low and behold my was a sky high 23. It was funny! All my co-workers, plus the doctor said "How can you be standing?" "Don't you feel like crap?"! Well, not really, I just had my son and what new mom isn't tired? Thyroids are funny…

I don't like to eat those pre-made meals, they all taste like cardboard. I went to the store and bought a whole bunch of green veggies and some salmon. I'll make my own little meals and stick them in the freezer and then take them to work or nuke them for supper.

So I am doing the South Beach diet again! And I have only done it since last Thursday, but I have lost 2 lbs since. So I am slightly motivated. Now to get my butt in gear and actually exercise. But my question is what to actually eat! I am still in the 1st 2 week stage, so no sugars, or carbs. If anyone else has done this…

I am in the same boat, except I don't get depressed I get cookin'! And when you cook like I do, you have to eat it:wink: My goal this fall/winter is to still cook but make everyone else eat it, my co-workers are doomed!

He is a cutie, and just my age:love: Send him my way:wink:

Oh, I am so with you! Eating almost seems to be my enemy. Of course, getting off my rump and moving wouldn't be bad either. Don't give up! Just strive to do better!:wink:

I'm pretty sure that my wagon lost it 2 back wheels and is dragging in the dirt. This has been very hard for me!

So yesterday, I went shopping! Ugh... It was horrible. Looking at yourself in a 3 way mirror did not do my self esteem any good but what makes it even worse is when nothing fits. I literly left in tears. After trying on, what seemed like a million things, I finally gave up in a heap clothes in the changing room. I am never…

You are awesome and such a motivation! What's your secret:)

Thanks to everyone and their ideas. Hopefully I can use them to my advantage:happy:

I am in the same boat. As hard as I try to stay on task, my boat keeps getting holes in it and I am sinking fast. I wish you luck:wink:

Ok, so I am soooooo hungry, so I eat and then I totally go over my calorie count for the day. I need help to fit in food that keeps me full but doesn't put me over my quota. And slim fast shakes just don't do it for me. What are some things you eat throught the day or are your meals? I'll do anything! :embarassed:

Working out = C Healthy eating = C Staying within calories = C Motivation = C I am really having a hard time!

:smooched: You can do it! Your sista in Iowa is 100% behind you. I bet you lose it faster than me!

2 lbs down, 48 more to go! Wow, that's what my feet look like!:wink:

So I have this thought, if I truly want to lose weight I need to got bed early and get up early so I can go exercise. So that's what I did, except it was by accident. My 3 month old thought she needed to get up and eat so I decided I'm up lets do some damage:wink: I went on a walk and started myself out right. Kuddos for…

I'm new and would love to be your fitness buddy. We are also trying to lose about the same amount of weight. Let me know:smile:

Ok, so last night my soon to be ex dropped the kids off. He bought a gym and a tanning package right after we separated in December and has been losing weight, getting trim and a nice golden brown. Plus he's dating some other woman. :grumble: Yuck, me on the other hand just gave birth to our 2nd child, in March, so I have…

Thanks for everyone's replys. They are encouraging. I will take everything in stride. I was just wondering what everyone thought.:happy:

Um... My new diet. Which I mean my new one out of the other 4 I've tried and so far fell off the wagon. I'm not an expert or anything but lets see... I've done south beach, which I did lose weight but it's hard to cook 2 different meals when the husband and kids don't want to eat your meal. Weight watchers, that got…
