I'm in. I have a hard time getting 5000 most days. Everyone feel free to add me. https://www.fitbit.com/user/43V68V

This is such a good idea! I have been using Olay Total Effects body wash and body lotion and even though it's not for stretch marks mine are alot less purple now and I have been using it for about a month. It also make your skin so soft, my 13 yo daughter commented on how soft my skin looked the other day. :)

http://www.skinnytaste.com/ great low cal/ low fat recipes. I made brownies off this site the other day only I didn't use the chocolate chip so my version came out to be 91 cals and .5g fat. My kids even loved them. Don't be hard on yourself, it takes time to learn anything new including eating healthy. Good Luck!

This is so true! An hour ago I was on the phone with my sister complaining about my bad day and I said I'm going to go take a nap. Instead I did cardio for 45min, and I feel SOOOO much better.

I also tracked my husbands daily intake and showed him. It was his sodium levels that got him going when I pulled up information about heath problems it will can cause. Now he comes home from work every day telling me what he ate for the day so I can track it and he is watching his portions. He also started doing p90x with…

:laugh: Bump, I need a laugh.

If you live in Texas near an HEB you should try any of the Cafe Ole coffees. My fav is Taste of Austin. I no longer live in Tx so I order it online here http://www.hebshopping.com/home.php I also get the Snickernut Cookie flavor for a treat.

Glad to hear this, I HATE the yoga! I am going on week 3. I have not done the full dvd of yoga yet. I made it 45mins in last week, then skiped to the cool down. I am going to do my best to finish it this week.

I made this yeaterday http://www.skinnytaste.com/2008/11/crock-pot-chicken-taco-chili-4-pts.html it was very tasty. I used dry beans instead of canned and made my own taco seasoning to cut down on the sodium. I have tried alot of recipes from this site and have not been let down by one of them. I would suggest you do the…

We met at a swimming pool when we were 12 and 13, became friends and went to Jr High and High School together. We did not become an item until we were 23 and 24, this July will be 8 years!

I went to your profile to see your pics you look AMAZING! Great work!

I also want to quit, I keep telling myself that this is it. Then the craving hits me so hard. Not 20 mins ago I went to get a pack. :( But instead of driving to the store, I walked. My husband qiut 1 year and 1 month ago, he says he still has cravings. I have read that quiting smoking is so hard not only because of the…

I love this site, I'm making the Zesty Lime Shrimp and Avocado Salad tonight. The Chicken and White Bean Enchiladas with Creamy Green Chile Sauce would have to be my fav! You should try out some of the recipes on here.

Good job!

Do you drink soda? I know that was what kept me from drinking enough water before, and when I cut the soda out of my diet years ago I lost alot of weight.

I know how you feel, I would also like to know the answer to this.

I feel for you, I agree with thelandofwin "It sounds like setting boundaries would be a good start". Question is, if she did loose her house where would she live? With you? That would not only be a financial strain for you but also a strain on your marriage. Sorry i don't have any advice, I hope it works out for you though.

I'm in!

Congratulations!!:flowerforyou:

You should have it looked at. My husband hurt his ankle running 8 months ago and waited too long to go to the doc, now he has had physical therapy 3 time a week for the past 3 months and it still bothers him when he works out. Hope it gets better for you soon!

I also joined a week ago, feel free to add me for encouragement. My kids are older (7 and 13) but I am a stay at home Mom as well. I love this site, so many people saying good job helps to keep you motivated. Good luck and way to go on the first week loss!

Very well said. I have been on both ends, 10 years ago I had 40lbs to loose, and in my experience it was more of a struggle to loose that 40lbs then it is now to maintain where I am at. It hurts to have people give you dirty looks because of your weight or to hate yourself and feel like you are unable to do anything about…

I drink 96oz a day. I have a 32oz cup that I fill 3x a day and keep it with me at all times.

Yes, knowing when you need to eat back those calories is a huge help! I found out I was under eating before joining this site and putting my body in to starvation mode.

Welcome, I am also faily new and I find this site very helpful. I learned that I was under eating from this site and that is not good! Feel free to add me, we all need the support!

You are lovely as well!
