Agreed Vernesssie. I have nothing to gain by faking stats. If they do its on them. It's their life, not mine. Like nucreeman said, Im completely self-absorbed!!! Dont have time to worry about others stats.

Yep and your husband is right. My hubby couldnt' stand my body at a size 8. Said I was wayyyy to skinny.

Yall are tripping me out w/ different colors. What is the actual challenge???

Hey guys!!!! What exactly is the challenge?

God said if you dont forgive how can He forgive you. I too have been on both ends of the forgivness ruler. I've had to forgive and I've had to await forgiveness. It comes easy now b/c I dont want to hold onto anything that will hurt me.

Im just the oppisite. Although I do sometimes call myself fat, I dont believe it when I say it. Frankly Im not fat. Precious is FAT. I dont even believe Im obese, although every nutrionist will call me that. Im a sista and Im suppose to have curves and extra meat. ONLY A DOG WANTS A BONE! Fat??? How would you like it if I…

Been married for 20 yrs come August. Been together since 1987. Have three children ages 22, 18, 14. We're a force to be reckoned with :wink:

I'm too nice,. I would say trusting as well but I dont trust anyone. I"ll make you think I do but I really dont. I guess that's a character flaw in itself...

OMG I have the same problem. No one is obeist in my home. The kids have healthy eating habits. BUt my problem is the money. I know some say in the long run it' pays off but for a poor African American family it's just not feasible. We buy what's on sale and in the hood that's usually something fatty and unhealthy. Like…

I will say that it was easy for me to cut out surgary drinks. I cut out soda a d replaced it with Coke Zero. I cut out my ohh so good Mc Donalds sweet tea and replaced it w/ water. . I still cant get up to 8 glasses of water a day but I average about 3-4 glasses a day.

Most def story of MY LIFE. Esp at "that time of the month"!!!! I will say though I have cut it out before. I wish I could find that same motivation I had before. I cant seem to find it!!!! But Im not giving up either!!!!

Confused about the BMR thing. How does that incorporate into losing weight?

Classic black. Commando is better :)

I wish I could help Im in the same boat you are. Chocolate is my frenemy!!!!! I hate to love it!!!! I'll gorge on popcorn and other sweets to satisfy my need for chocolate. If you do find other alternatives, PLS DO SHARE :smile:

Hello chocolate lovers. I simply adore CHOCOLATE. It all began in my childhood..my borthers and I would get Mcdonalds and that would be a treat for us. Back then Happy Meals hadn't begun..I dont think they did...hmmm. Any way. My oldest bro liked the vanilla shakes w/ his cheeseburger. My younger brother would like…

Im sorry I totally understand. Im losing weight but haven't lost my boob size yet. Im hoping they dont go down too much. I want to stay at least a 38D or C. Im concerned about losing my butt as well. Hubby hates a bony chick!

IM pretty new myself! On a 1200 a day caloric diet as well. I dont beat myself up about what Im not suppose to eat or am suppose to eat. Im 42, 3 children and just need to be and live healthy. As per my doctor Im overweight, I dont see it. Im my culture African American women are suppose to be thick and juicy. But I am…

No I dont think men should get paternity leave. Why should they. They aren't carring the baby, they aren't feeding the baby, they dont need to recover as a mother does. Men have it easy.
