Thanks everyone! Squamation: I really should do that...haven't had the will power to make my kids give up their treat. :/ We do sneak in our candy though...LOL (I can't pay that much! The water I did buy at concession was as much as the 4 movie tickets-dollar movies)...how ridiculous is that??? :/

I agree with raychulj!!!!! I've had 4 babies and never did I feel like my body was ready for that kind of intensity after they were born. I actually wait about a year (I nurse) or just under. I mean, yeah, I try a little and I try to walk and stuff but I think you have to let your body heal and start small to build up some…

wow is right!!!!! That is amazing!

Great job!!!!

Nothing to be embarrassed about! You saw the problem and took charge and FIXED it!!! Great job!

Since you have had disordered eating....it sounds like maybe you need to look at why. :( Why are your parents upset that you weigh 128?? It's for YOU not for them. I think you should get some counseling....start at your dr if you don't know of a counselor....to get a healthier view of food and weight. :) Best wishes!

You completely just gave me motivation to start again...!!!! That is aMAYzing!!!!!!!! Congratulations!

Wow! You look amazing!

The mental images evoked by this post just cracked me up. Literally made me LOL.

You know, you don't have to love everything a person does to still love that person. People who hate in the name of religion are just that RELIGIOUS. I am a follower of Christ, a Christian. Not religious. Christ loved everyone-even when he didn't love what they did. I am sorry your family uses their religious beliefs to…

Great job! Main difference I can see is in your face (because you're wearing a black suit ;) ) but it's a big difference! :)

I don't allow my children to eat when they are sick (vomiting sick, not colds, etc) because you are not feeding your body so much as feeding the virus/bacteria that is causing the vomiting/diarrhea. When you do start to eat again follow this diet: B-bananas R-rice A-applesauce T-toast (dry) Eat only the things on the BRAT…

That answer is so subjective and varied-even in the same mommy!!! Just my last 2 pregnancies: #3-started at 164, gained about 40'ish.....by 11 mos pp I was at 150. No exercise. No diet. Nothing! Just nursing. *****enter zoloft into my life****** Started out on my 4th pregnancy at 189'ish :/ (surprise pregnancy) and am just…

Great job!!!!

Haha! I have/had super straight hair and my mom used those sponge curlers on mine when I was little. You sleep on them and wake with curls. Try it ahead of time though in case it's not what you want. Mine is not thick but is verrrrrrrrry fine (ie--holds NO CURL!) Also, if I wanted to curl my hair as an adult when it was…

Wow! Great job and what a nice friend to do that so you could see it and believe in yourself to keep going! :)
-
LOL at previous poster...I agree though! On several levels (people who don't know what those are will just wonder what that is...LOL) I don't know what they are either...good luck and good for you being a sweet sister!

We had a yellow lab that died last December from cancer..we tried a couple of times this year to get a new dog (a black lab puppy that had some pit in him we think-he tried to eat my youngest children :/ and then a rescue boxer. Neither one worked out (too soon??) and we JUST got a yellow lab puppy named Callie. She's 7…

I wish I knew what the answer is for you...I was hoping someone had helped you because I'm having lots of trouble too....I've kind of given up the last day or so. I know that won't work. IDK....when I lost weight before (but I was in my late 20s as opposed to my late 30s) I ate 1500 calories per day and worked out 6 days a…

I get this while on the elliptical! So, maybe I'm not crazy! LOL I didn't know how to explain it so I never did. I'm thinking for me it's about that nerve at the top of the arch of my foot....good luck!

I thought that lowering carbs was supposed to help. IDK though b/c I have belly fat too and when I try to lower carbs I have no energy (physical or mental). So, I just keep working out and hoping....
-
Maybe it's time to get help?!? IDK if you are partying or self medicating but either way it sounds like if you can only control the drinking for a short amount of time that you might have a "problem". Best wishes!
-
I also binge eat...for emotional reasons. And I think it's a self-sabotage thing. Because if I have a specific mini-goal it is 10x worse for me. :/ The best thing is to just not have access to the foods. And distract yourself somehow.... Good luck! It's tough. And it's easy for someone who does not have the problem to say…

Hi! Love this thread. I'm just barely over 5'7" and I weigh 172:huh: I started at 189 just over a year ago. My ultimate goal weight is around 145'ish. I was 135 when I married my dh at 18 but I think I wouldn't look very good at that weight now. That was SUPER skinny for me (looking back at pics...I didn't realize it at…
-
I am not going to say that every day is peachy keen because there are definitely HARD days (I homeschool 3 of my 4 and the other one is not old enough yet-he's 2, almost 3) but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I get paid in ways other than $$...I worked outside the home for over 5 years before we had kids and I quit at…

That's stupid. Maybe he's more talking to himself about why he doesn't have a girlfriend! :/ You should not lose weight to get a guy, you should lose weight b/c you know you need to...for you! And if you find a guy who only wants you b/c you're "thin" then what about if you get pregnant? Or just gain 10 pounds over the…
-
I can't see the pics but I'm sure someone who has knowledge will come along and help you... :) But congrats on your 150 lost! That's awesome!
-
Wow! That is a huge difference in 10 days! With changes like that...you're bound to see a major difference quickly. Keep up the good work and you'll get there in no time. Just remember, even when it slows down...it's still worth it!

Great job! And yeah, that's a great reason to wear a sweatshirt! Brrrr!
