My dr.'s office now will not let anyone back with you until after you are weighed and are in your room. I remember how happy I was when I realized hubby wouldn't get to see the scale anymore. Even thru my pregnancies I still didn't want him to know how much I weighed. Now I actually get on the scale in front of him at home…

Its crazy how you've lost all your weight and are only 125lbs and you still dread it. I wonder if its a girl thing. Why do we put so much value on what the scale reads?

I do every Thursday morning before eating, after using the restroom, before putting any clothes on. I sometimes will do it more frequently if I have been cheating to try to motivate myself back in tohealthy eating mode. I only log Thursdays though.

Well I was up 1 lb, but I always weigh first thing in the morning wearing nothing so I expected it to be a little higher.

I love this too! Its so great I think I'll be singing it all day!

I tailor them myself. For dresspants I just turn them inside out and take them in on both sides straight down the outer seams. Waistband and all. I turned all my clothes from an 18 to a 12. I do the shirts too. Mostly just from the armpit down the side seams. Jeans I. Just do the waistband. I think this all made my $70…

Its kind of bizarre how alike we are. I am 5'9" and I was 253 at my highest. I was down to 148 in high school, but I was borderline anorexic. I would go look at myself in the mirror if I thought I was hungry and would convince myself I shouldn't eat. I sure looked goo though. I lost about 40lbs right before my wedding thru…

Help me too! I wish there was an easier way! I lost most of my weight, but I am hoping after I lose the rest it will be gone.

Well I talked to him about it and he said he wanted me to know I don't need to lose more weight bc its just skin that is on my stomach. He was just trying to be supportive and was telling me that all my hard work is being covered up by the skin and actually my stomach is flat. (Of course he meant flatter than it looks, b/c…

Are you kidding! That is awesome! Not that you lost weight just to hear compliments, but they are a huge perk for all the work you have done. You should have talked to him because I bet he would have been really complimentary to your face. Congrats! That is a HUGE NSV!

I have a 9 month old and I would let her go, but I don't use a bumper. I am still so afraid of her suffocating even though she is 9 months and is normal developmentally. I have a thin mesh bumper that prevents her arms and legs from sticking out thru the rails of the crib, but is mesh so she wouldn't suffocate even if her…

I just read that and I am even more convinced I need more fruits and veggies in my diet. I committed to 1 serving everyday, but I have been eating 2. Now I think I will need more.

I eat English muffins for breakfast and they fill me up. I use the high fiber light Thomas' and add an egg, sliced turkey and 1/2 of a slice of cheese. High fiber and high protein. And it tastes good. You can see it in my diary on Sunday morning.

Just ignore it. You know what's healthy. I get the same at 169 at 5'9" when I say I want to lose 20 more

Yeah, I hope it doesn't backfire on me. He'll be ordering pizza and buying Hostess dunkin sticks (donuts) everyday!

Oh thats even better than high impact aerobics!

How about aerobics- high impact? He sure loves it when I go over on calories.

That is kinda crazy except my highest weight was 253, but i was pregnant. And I don't think I could be less that 148. I was a size 6 then and don't think less than that would look healthy on me. I am 5'9" though.

I just go look in the mirror. Either I feel better b/c I have been doing so good or I motivate myself to get back on the wagon so I can continue my weight loss. I also can look back at a fat picture. Now that's motivation. I also will make sure I am not going over calories for the week. Come days I go over, but overall my…

Lots of fiber can clean you out pretty well. You can stick to natural fruits and veggies or go the fiber bar route. Be prepared for gas if you have never done this though.

Its about time they start pulling some weight around my house. They are 21 months and 9 months. They BOTH need to have jobs. Food is expensive!

You can see a fb tagged photo of me fat in my profile pics and I keep it. It is motivation abecause I want to remember how bad I looked to keep me on the right track. I may even print it and put it on my treadmill.

I weigh myself every Thursday morning after using the rest room (w/o clothes b/c I don't want to add any pounds!). I know in the morning we probably weigh less since we haven't eaten all night and may be a little more dehydrated. Sometimes if I am cheating I get nervous and weigh myself on other days, but it doesn't count…

I am on the depo shot and I was on it before children for 7 years and had NO periods. I am back on it now and today will be my third shot (So I have been on it for 6 months) and I have had bleeding for the last 11 weeks. Not always heavy - but still very annoying. I would love to switch to something else, but I heard the…

Here is a link of different medications ad the side effects. Wellbutrin has few side effects and I have taken that before. I just don't know how weight gain can be measured b/c you really don't know if the patient's behavior is the same (unless they use MFP.)…

Are you measuring? You should try that. Sometimes if you don't lose weight you will still see inches come off as your body loses fat and gains muscle.

I used to get migraines ALOT until I went off caffeine. I went back on caffeine now that I have 2 babies and I don't get much sleep, but I find that if I take something OTC at the ONSET of pain I can usually stop it before it becomes a migraine. I also will take phenergan (a prescription from your doctor) if it does get…

Turkey on wheat with extra meat maybe? and the spicy mustard. Thats my favorite.

Do you still have your old clothes from when you were 2 pants sizes bigger? Try them on! I am serious. Try them on and remember how tight they used to be and see how loose they are now.

I have had it since 2008 and have had my dosage increased twice. I am now on 75mcg and seem to be doing better. I carry my weight around my love handles too so I feel your pain.
