OK, being a giraffe might be pretty cool...

TY Angie.

At 55lbs lost you have lost more than anyone who responded to this thread. Gratz to you - you are a champion

Pelly, I do know what you are in RL, but here you are a celebrity. The poster child for hard work and determination.

your stories are all so awesome. That is one thing we all have in common so we all know how precious it is and how motivating.

Well at least I feel a bit normal now. :glasses:

dam...great work

Thanks for your ideas. I have an app now called Jefit, which has thousands of exercises in it. The UFC one mentioned above sounds like a real killer - I think I will try that one tonight.

Don't enable with money - give her what she needs. Food, Gas, Electric bill (make check out to electric company). She may scoff at this, but then you need to ask yourself what she really needs the money for

I wanna shop with you....I spend my days wishing someone would say something like that to me or my Oogy Boogy...Dam I wish. You did well and I support you 100%. People need to be put in check from time to time. Who do they think they are? To the people who say she may have just been a helpful Henrietta I say BS. If you…

it's the ones that move you to say something that are not tiny at all. Way to go!

I thought I heard once about a program that hospitals were involved in where they would remove the excess skin from you for free in order to keep the stock pile high for burn victims. I know I heard something about this a few years ago. That was my plan...lose all my weight and then find the hospital that participated in…

I had the same thing last night and I am a NAZI about regimented feeding schedules and proper balance of nutrition. All of a sudden while watching some episodes of Family Ties I felt uber hungry for something with salt and fat in it. I was not sure what it was, but I knew I was famished. I ate some safe stuff, but it never…

I have read a lot of studies regarding this. It is one of the first things you are warned about and medicated for when you go from any sort of lifestyle including alcohol to one of tee-totalling. There is strong evidence to support poor sleep while adjusting. that is whay I have melatonin in my medicine cabinet.

It's alwasy the doughnuts that try to get ya....great discipline - I am proud of you.

GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN!!!!!!! W00t!!! We just set the world record for a lip dub. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPjjZCO67WI

diet Rumaki - AWESOME!!! Low sodium, low fat turkey bacon Liver water chestnuts slice liver into cubes and skewer with toothpick, also put a slice of water chestnut on there. Wrap with bacon and stick in oven for 15-20 mins on 350. Divine and unique.

I read and enjoyed a good portion however there are errors in the person's logic too (based on the results of my own studies). I guess the truth is what we have found on our own, which is what I often tell people. My motivation for posting the truths about health goes way back as far as we have recorded history with…

You have taken my post out of context. Doing that makes it easy to debunk. In context you will see I am not defending the 6 meal/day concept rather pointing out the questionable validity of a cited source.

Are you still here Mapex? Let's clear something up that I just noticed. I was reading the posts you have put up (particularly the "angry" one you posted toward me most recently) and I think you have me confused with someone else. I never once suggested that eating many meals per day increases metabolism. On that point we…

And that POS posting on the 6 meals a day not being necessary wasn't equally crappy? Look I do not have the time to give you two strokes a complete degree in biochemstry. If you are so interested, apply for a membership to pub-med and scour the databases there. You will find thousands of scholarly reviews and studies…

Citation? Are you new? Is this the first time you have heard about breakfast and the body's catabolic state? That would be like me finding citations for the fact that water is wet. Jesus man...I googled for 5 secs and I came up with this link:…

Here is the scientific evidence why you eat small meal before going to bed and why breakfast should be a larger meal. When you eat a meal the blood rushes to your abdomen to aid in digestion and distribution of nutrients. With this rush to the abdomen there is a slight deficiency of blood to your muscles and extremeties…

You look fantastic! Great Work!!!

Hell yeah!!!!!!! You look great!!!!!

edamame - addicting

I agree - you look great!!!

If you get out of bed and hit the road jogging there are several things happening to your body you need to know about. First, you have been breathing and sweating all night so you are dehydrated. Secondly, your stomach is empty and all you have is the energy stored in the form of glycogen in your muscle tissue. Have you…

Water is approx 8.3 lb/gal which means if you drank a half gallon you would have ingested about 4 lbs. There are countless reasons why, but the human body weight is a dynamic rather than a static. For instance, when you first weigh yourself in the morning you have a lower weight usually. If you were to eliminate and then…

I usually pick the weight I like the best and stick with that :D
