I have a tattoo on my tummy right above my belly button and it's bigger than it was when I was skinny. :) I know it will be smaller again soon.

ah yes...

Makes no sense but my girl says this and it makes me giggle: It's hot as balls!

Some dude thought I was pregnant even though I'm not...oh, the shame. I couldn't even bring myself to say, no, I'm just fat.

YAY!! That feels great!

Well hello there!!

Marhaba!! I'm tall just like you and trying to get back to my happy weight. Congratulations on coming to US to study, it will be a beautiful adventure. I look forward to seeing you around!

Welcome! I'm sort of new here too but it's really helping me with motivation! I have arthritis too in my feet and knees, maybe we can help give each other support for low-impact exercise. Glad you are here! We can do this!!

Welcome ladies! This site is soooo helpful, you're going to love it!!

I kind ot think this is it too. I don't really want to believe that everybody out there is hatin' just because someone else is succeeding where they failed ( or haven't even tried)...I just think they think they are fine, so therefore you were fine too.

Awww! My heart is melting. I know that wasn't directed to me, but it made my day brighter anyway! Thanks, SoldierDad fo your bright cheerful self! You're pretty great yourself!!

Great job! My husband and I have been guilty of doing the same. I just started weighing/measuring my food since I came here, too.

Great job!! You look so happy! Keep up the good work!

Good stuff!

I usually work out at 5:30 and get up at about 5:10. I chow a Zone Bar or a hard boiled egg on the way there, and then chug about 32 oz of water when I leave.

6" veggie delite is what i always get. delish and only 310 mgs of sodium. but I don't really track my sodium, soooo...

I just read in another thread that a spoonful of peanut butter helps. I haven't tried it yet, but good lucl! My old stand by has always been ginger ale, but that's off the table for now.

ZING!!

I don't really have a lot to add, those are great suggestions. I just wanted to say that I used to be that way too, and by using a lot of the suggestions that others have posted I've slowly changed to a "meal" eater and less of a grazer. I feel more in control of my eating, which is a confidence booster. Give it a try, I…

I had my very first NSV since joining MFP! My hips are two inches smaller than since I joined!!

This. UGH, my scale stubbornly refuses to move so I try not to obsess about it and just keep on doing what I'm doing. It can't last forever. (can it? :ohwell: )

You know what you need to do! You're back!! Now get out there and get started!! You should be proud, you've taken the first, most difficult step!

I love it!! That's a much better attitude. All the advertisers have brainwashed us into believing that the best way to "reward" ourselves is by eating...and, speaking for myself, I fell for it hook, line and sinker. It's what got me here. Now is the time to reprogram the way we percieve food and the food industry. We don't…

Keep it up!!

Uh, thanks pal. People can be so rude. Apparantly he hasn't lost any of his charm and winning personality! I cringed when I read that. Obviously he's insecure so he's going to try to knock those around him down a few pegs. Keep up the good work! The best way to deal with people like that is keep your head up high and carry…

Thanks for the reminder! Since I'm not seeing anything on the scale, I may as well think of it that way!

I wish I could bottle it because I'd be a millionaire. I was always the kind of person who didn't give a second thought to how much i ate until an injury set me back and I was unable to work out. Then my lifestyle changed and blah, blah blah, the same old story. I woke up and found myself eating an unhealthy diet,…

They smell like nausea and headaches to me...gag. Other things that actually make me nauseated to smell are Hot Dogs, Spam, any uber processed cold cuts such as bologna, etc. I can't tolerate the odor. Soooo horrid! Must evacuate this thread before I vom....

So Delicious Coconut Milk is the greatest thing on earth!!! I love that stuff!
