PRAYERS OUT TO HIM!!!

GREAT TIPS!!!!

YOU BET YOU CAN! :bigsmile:

What an amazing job. Thanks for sharing your story. I will print this and use for inspiration. :bigsmile:

I have to say I had 9...count them 9 chip ahoy cookies last night. They were GGOOOODDDD!!! :bigsmile: :devil:

Hi all, I just wanted to report in my first week I am down 5lbs. That was my first mini goal. Next stop, get under 200 pounds to ONEderland again. I have 6 pounds to go to reach that goal. How exciting is this??? :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

How incredibly amazing!!

Good information!

That's the spirit!!! :bigsmile:

Wow, I seriously do not remember where I was and I was born. If you would have asked about September 11th. I could have given you that information. :happy:

:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: That's too funny!!! Love how you told us!! How do you feel?

I recommend trying this website podfitness.com. You can get a free trial of 8 weeks. What you will do is create a profile and put in your fitness goals and based on your recommendations it will create programs for you-- you select a personal trainer and the trainer is actually coaching you through your workout mixed with…

ChubbyBunny, I'm with you. I've always said my life would be easier if I could eat yogurt. I can't choke any of that stuff down (yogurt, pudding, cottage cheese). The textures make me wanna gag, in the worst way! :sick: :bigsmile: :sick: :bigsmile:

I love Beachbody's Ten Minute Trainer.

I totally agree Kris!! :bigsmile:

I was talking about the bread carbs--bagel at breakfast and then bread throughout the day. Even though you are not eating your recommended carbs, these numbers are all recommendations and you will need to find the right balance. Someone mentioned the high sodium--salt will kill you--not literally I don't think but…

Hello to a fellow Virginian- even though you moved here. I'm in Norfolk, Virginia. Have you ever seen those fit models on the cover of Oxygen and Muscle Fit Hers? I would kill for one of their bodies, well guess what. They did an article recently about how hard it is for these women to find jeans that fit their bodies,…

Awesome advice Bamboo. I'm so nervous about finding the right balance thinking I'm going to put on more weight while I'm trying to strike that balance, but it does make sense to use the calculations of this site, gotta start somewhere. Thanks you guys for having this conversation with me. :happy:

Just off the top. Your diet is very carb heavy which is not a bad thing but I would try to get veggie carbs in --instead of the bread carbs you are eating. Also, do you have a healthy bathroom schedule? .5 pound could be a much needed bathroom break. :bigsmile:

I will try the heart rate monitor. Been at this losing weight thing for far too long. Feel like it's taking over my life, it's all I think about. Just want to find the right combination of things and just do it. :happy:

I have set my weight loss goals and I have all that information but since this site is not my only source of information. I decided to see what else is out there and a very credible weight loss guru says to eat under your BMR and you should see results and they give a calculation to follow. I've found that with the small…

I just spend a couple of minutes calculating my BMR from different sites. The highest calculations is 2279, the lowest 1731. This site comes in around 1739. All came from the same information, 36 years, 210 pounds, 5'11", sedentary. This is such a discrepancy. How can I trust any of it? I'm told if you eat below your BMR,…

I just canceled my Weight Watchers last week after I found this site. I didn't want to pay anymore and I thought this was a more realistic way of tracking for me. I didn't see myself counting points for the rest of my life, nor do I see myself counting calories either. My plan is to use this system until I have a clear…

GREAT! You just made my year! :bigsmile:

I felt the same way and had to readjust my weight goals. Of course, I want everything immediately, but I was bordering on starvation and eating everything in site. I know physically I can not maintain any sanity on that low calorie count. :noway:

It's life...it happens... AND it's fine! Seriously, there is no reason to hate yourself nor to want to die. Celebrate....you are human! :bigsmile:

I've always had it explained to me like this: You lose weight by what you eat. You change your body and maintain with exercise.

Way to go!!! This morning has been a good weigh in day. :bigsmile:

You are a ROCK STAR in the weight loss department. :bigsmile: Here's to you! :drinker:
