  • Thank you all. I'm carefully considering my options. I'm not giving up on me, oh no not this time. I'm excited that my eldest daughter is available for me to talk to about some issues, but you guys rock! Sometimes we just need someone to let us know we are worthy.
  • First and foremost as a Woman being first in your own life is a rarity. It is the stuff of girly dreams. I have a life and that encompasses all the obligations I have put into it. Husband children pets home hell even the plants in the yard. And job. Life didn't start this way, I think he's afraid and hasn't got the coping…
  • I use the Up Move. I really like it.
  • Oregon can be a daunting experience, even after being here I'm refered to as a Californian. They don't take to outsiders well in some areas and if you weren't born here your an outsider. And then depending on where you live the weather sometimes makes it seem like to much trouble to go outside for a walk. I live near the…
  • I live in Mapleton and work in Florence. Love it here. Also looking for friends that I can talk to, exchange ideas and advice. I only have one friend ( my daughter ) who helps and supports me in this mission to change my lifestyle and become healthy.
  • Pms and bloat get me. I had someone compliment me on my loss and she said I swear you get skinnier everyday, so proud of myself I hopped on the scale and I had gained A LOT. It took a little over a week before I was through the bloat stage and then my weight dropped....I did not log weight until my hormones quit being mean…
  • I started a long time ago my daughter was big into fitness and told me about mfp. I used it regularly until my computer died, I sure didn't want any of that logging my weight and food even kinda sorta available for my husband to see so I stopped. Now I have tablets and smart phones with me all the time so it's easy to log…
  • My aunt and cousin are glueten free, and talked my mom into trying it. She told me about a web site elena's pantry. you should find some of what you need there along with good recipes.
  • If starvatin mode isn't real then explain to me how I got fat eating no breakfast no lunch maybe a snack and then a good dinner. For years that was how I ate busy busy busy too late for breakfast busy busy no lunch and dinner maybe if I was lucky would top at 500 calories snacks that I may have had would drive my calorie…
  • I did the 10 min soulutions pilates. Not a big calorie burn if thats what your looking for but a good workout for stregthening those muscles you may not use much. I found it challenging to try to get proper form. Also if you have a Wii online and netflix you can try them that way...thats how I found the 10 min solutions by…
  • I keep my hair long by keeping it up. I had the same problem as you couldn't get much past my shoulders. I was just breaking it off sitting in the car, in bed, anywhere that you can come into contact with it my shoulders pressed against it and it started to break there. Now I were it in a folded pony tail most of the time…

  • Cool, highs around 65f and it's been raining. Wind has been blowing for days, Welcome to the Oregon Coast. Funny when we moved here people were all saying well you haven't spent a winter here yet. It rains and it's cold, and for a week or two it's cold enought to snow, freeze pipes and be just miserable. It's not the…
  • Hufflepuff, think it means I'm not so very cool. oh well
  • Some one always know whats better for you. It could be your friend, mother, brother, father, sister, husband, or wife. At one point or another some one close to you will give hurtfull and unsolicited advice. Be a duck with rain and let it all slide off your back. Your problem seems pretty easy, shake your head saddly and…
  • I hear ya. I topped out at 107 in high school. I did the same kids back to back, but I spaced it out and had a third one 10 years after 1&2. When I hit over 200 I went to the doctor to see if #1 I'm healthy enough for exersize #2 how do you lose weight. My Eldest daughter told me about this site and I love it, I don't have…
  • I quit 3-4 years ago. I had want to real bad. I have three kids, I quit for each of them. The last one I was going to stay quit. It didn't work out likw that if you wanted to be in a coversation that was adult in nature you needed to be where the adults were, smoking on the mud porch. All that smoke filled my lungs I still…
  • Thanks it was a long time ago and I knew she drank a lot of water and died of water intoxication, I did not know they did not allow the use of the bathroom (I don't follow much of what goes on down there, but heard about it from my sil down in the area)
  • A woman died from a stupid radio show game drinking too much water, in Sacramento, that was 3or4 years ago. I was looking into this the other day. I have no desire to spend so much time in the bathroom or waiting to get to one......So Dr.'s OZ and Rosen said the 8 glass thing came from a study in 1945 on soilders, blah…
  • There isn't any thing wrong with a little snack at night. However if you think this little habit of eating when entering the kitchen at night is hindering you in you goals, you should work to retrain your mind not to think ok we are in the kitchen lets eat. I guess your in for a few more rough nights, but you'll get there…
  • I'd start trying on 10/12, you may be larger or smaller depending on your *uh*...well when I was 160 I wore 10 but had trouble pulling them up big hips and thighs:blushing:
  • If your going past the quick vaccume light dust of an every day cleaning log it if you want. Keeping the house neat is one thing but cleaning is a work out, I clean other peoples homes 2-3 times a week I'm wiped out after 4 hours.
  • Flaming hot cheetos fh puffcorn mmmm
  • You can look at mine I am often under, but I find it helps to see what others eat to help you have more choices. I just learned today from one of these posts in forums I should worry less about the natural sugars found in food (there is a way to track that) and fruits always made me go over on my sugar goal so I deleted…
  • Hi I sent a freind request. I am going for the long haul the lifestyle change do this untill it's just habit to pay attention to what and how much goes into my mouth. In my case I'm kind of backward I don't care to eat and when I did I made all the wrong choices, so I was telling my body that there isn't enough food so you…
  • I haven't seen anyone elses food diaries, but what I do is first thing in the morning I sit down at the computer with coffee or tea and mfp and think about what food I have where I will be. I put all the food in the diary check to see where I am at with meals so I can make adustments to my meal plan. It's there as a guide…
