If my partner knew I was taking steps to become healthier and was tyring to lose weight and I shared all this with them, then yes I would totally love this as a gift, would love it, but I wouldn't mind a lil something else to go with it, especially if it was for Valentines Day, maybe some roses. :flowerforyou: Now the…

Are you kidding me? For anyone to think that just by switching to diet soda you're going to lose weight is rediculous, so many other factors have to be tended to as well like eating right, exercising and other such things. Just like you can't assume that diet soda can cause all these illnesses, you can hardly make the…

After reading all her angst posts..I believe that's exactly what she thinks. :noway:

I understand in a been there done that kinda way, I still deal with it. Some people don't realize that food addiction, COE and bingeating is a real thing. Some people would tell you 'well just stop eating so much' or 'can't you just eat less'. What they don't realize is that when it comes to other addictions there are…

@JUDDDing, I love you like I love ninerbuff, so glad you actually came back to this thread as I was wondering if you would take the time to respond, and am thankful that you did. I totally agree with you, after reading his/her reply to you, I give you kudos for not mirroring this person's rudeness and snarky remarks. Way…

SW: 311.8 CW: 298.4 GW: 288 Weigh in Dates: 2/1 298.4 2/8 2/15 2/22 2/28 Total weight lost: When I lose my 5 pounds I will probably pick me out a new top or something, maybe some new nail polish. Nothing to extravigant, but something nice just for me. G'luck everyone! :heart:

Way to add that passive aggressive statement at the end! :noway:

@ninerbuff Off subject, but can I just say that I've seen you post alot as I read the forums daily and at first I thought you very abrasive, but after reading this whole thread..I'm beginning to love you, and not in that stalker kind of way but in the way that I appreciate seeing your input kinda way. Way to stick to your…

@penn - Don't ever get down at choices you make when it comes to the occasional splurge. I find that if I deny myself certain things, I crave them and crave them until I end up binge eating on something entirely different and end up feeling worse because I ate food that I didn't want to eat in the first place and still…

Hello all, my name is Christy, I'm 36 years old, soon to be 37 in May, married to a wonderful husband for 15 years come this August. At the start of January I weighed in at 311 pounds, my highest weight ever. I won't caption my life because to do so will mean I'm still living in the past and not forgiving myself for…

One pound a week is normal and healthy, if you have lost 8 pounds since January that means on average 2 pounds a week which is fine and a great accomplishment. I have alot to lose and I've lost a lil over 10 pounds this month, which is huge for me though in the back of my brain I'm always thinking I should be losing more…

I love my corn tortillas and have already given up flour, there is no way I'm giving up my corn ones. They have carbs yes, but not so much that means you should swear them off. I have tostadas 2x a week for lunch, I bake the corn tortillas in the oven with a bit of cayenne added to them and they are delicious!! Don't give…

Really big Phillies fan? Not much I can compliment other than that :) :heart:

Out of this whole topic, I found this the most offensive. Seriously? I mean the whole conversation/argument showed what a jerk this guy is, but his last statement..wow. My opinion, shaming is not the way to go. Most people that are obese have underlying emotional and mental abuse attributed to thier predicament, me…

I'm glad I'm not the only one obsessed with the Skinny Cow Chocolate Truffle ice cream bars. My husband swears I make sex noises when I'm eating one. :love: I also enjoy the Skinny Cow Dark Chocolate Clusters, Heavenly Bars (peanut butter crisp surrounded by chocolate) and chocolate & fudge ice cream cone. Obviously I…

You're eating to few calories in my opinion. Your body needs fuel to burn and instead you may be storing what few calories you are bringing in. I know that you may feel an easy way to lose weight would be to eat under the amount of calories that is suggested for you. That is not the case, eat your calories, workout and…

Welcome Rose, I hope you find the support and knowledge that will help you in your journey. Remember losing weight and becoming healthy is not a sprint but a marathon, you will get there, baby steps and small goals. :heart:

Some antidepressants can make you gain weight and make you lose weight, but it's a side effect and varries from person to person. Remember that this is just a side effect, and the average weight gain for most people starting new antidepressants is 5-8 pounds. I know that seems like alot but you will make it through. Who…

I'm in, a nice break from working the lower half of my body, my legs and butt thank you! :laugh:

I'm in, though I see me hittin the carpet *kitten* first in my future. G'luck everyone! :heart:

Done! Happy Friday everyone! :happy:

I'm in. :heart: gluck everyone!

Super challenge completed: 100 girlie pushups 100 crunches and 100 squats G'luck everyone! :heart:

I'm in for the super challenge! :heart:

I must be losing my mind..finished probably 30 minutes after my first post but never posted back to say I finished. Anywho, yeh..finished! :heart:

I'm in! :heart:

I forgot to say that I was in, but now I am done as well. Took awhile to do and ended up doing 150 of half jacks instead of the full 300 full jumping jacks. I did what I could and I'm happy I was able to do as much as I did. G'luck everyone else! :heart:

Done, did them by doing 20 seconds up and a few seconds down then 20 seconds up and a few seconds down and then 20 seconds up again. Did that for 5 sets with a great friend and motivator!

I'm in!

Finished these yesterday but forgot to check back in. Was able to do these with a friend and we rocked them out along with some other exercises!
