I don't have a schedule, i eat when i get hungry not when it's time. With my mixed up day-rhythm a schedule would be impossible

i'm using Implanon - the implant that lasts 3 years. No side effects, no problems My period did not stop but my pain got less as well as PMS hehe

Yeah also Playing guitar and so on, IS in the exercise list :)

I can say that for myself the 'when' does not matter at all. I have a very irregular day, sometimes stand up morning, sometimes afternoon or night.. i eat only when i am hungry not when it's time, so that differs a lot. Did you check your Sodium, Fat, Sugar intake? i see you work a lot, stress can be a factor too, TOM as…

Have you also checked your Sodium? Maybe you lost in fat but gained in muscles. Do you have your TOM or are sick or have stress?

Guitar and Vocals. I started to play guitar when i was 14.. and taught it myself, so i am surely way behind anyone who learned it in a school. I went over acoustics, electric, bass all of them have their benefits :) I play whatever comes to my mind and fits into my mood. Vocals i do since kindergarden, i had a great singer…

This tipping thing is really depending on the country you are in. It is completely different in Germany than in US, UK or so. Here the tips are included in the money you pay when your bill comes and many many restaurants even have a paragraph on their menu that tell you to please NOT to tip the personnel because of the…

Haha, see and as nice being tall can be (you are stretched and weight seems to look less or reach high shelves or being able to change bulbs without ladder *lol*) as much you can seriously hate it. It is hard enough to find clothing when you are fat but when you are fat AND taller than the fashion industry thinks women…

The worst part for me was/is that i might not get older as 40, which is just a 9 years and 2 months more than i'm now. The best part of being .. well i prefer 'healthy' not sin, is to live and have the chance to see my future kids grow up, and first of all get them :)

i found a site that calculates the pyramid for everyone individually.. maybe you want to try that: http://www.pyramid.gov/mypyramid/index.aspx

I am still at the beginning of a long adventure but i can say that i would not have been sticking so long to it without MFP and those wonderful people here, who are inspiration and motivation each and every day. Thank you everyone :)

I am 1.90 meters (6'3'') tall and my normal weight would be at 90kg (198lbs) though my final goal is actually more around 100 -110 kg ( 220 - 242 lbs) because i don't wanna look thin... i wanna look healty but still have something to grab hold on. *lol*

Actually my *biggest* pet peeve is other people's pet peeves *laughs* Well mainly those people to think their pet peeves should be known by everyone and forced upon them because otherwise they think it's personal against them. I have met quite a few of those people in my life who say "how do you dare to do this, don't you…

Svey: yeah i wanted to be on track before joining anything *gg* But well i think i might just do that and adjust it a bit IF that's okay. I do not make weekly goals actually - i'm happy with whatever comes off *laughs* Though i have 3 goals for me. Since everybody seems to have weekly goals i just wondered if that is a…

Holy Moly that would be almost 7 Liters a day (236 oz)... sorry i'll pass on that i am happy to make my 3 liters (about 101 oz) *laughs*

I agree... to several points. 1. When your friends have always been thin with eating BBQs and Pizza then they might not even know that it is 'not so good' ... 2. you don't have to stop eating pizza and BBQ just eat it in smaller portions than you maybe used to. I enjoy pizza and BBQ and all that stuff every now and then -…

I like to peek into other people's diaries... not because i am nosy or want to control them or anything but to get ideas of what to eat and how to bring variety into my own eating because i am pretty new to all this healthy stuff and might end up eating the same all over instead of changing. And i share mine because 1. i…

Next to that you are going through the change and have to get used to much drinking... have you checked your blood sugar? The time before i got pretty bad and then collapsed and got diagnosed with diabetis i had this as well and still have it when i go over a certain blood sugar. Maybe check it just to be sure, pharmacies…

Thanks you took the words right out of my mouth. I did see the attack in a different post not in that one.. judging and attacking. I honestly did not see where she ASKED something. She obviously vented. And opinions are fine but judging and attacking is a different thing.

yeah that's a great fun way for weight workout :) I use full 1.5 bottles since we have those in the house all of the time :)

Yes my boyfriend knows it.. Actually since my tummy is too big to see the sliders of the scale he is the one who reads it while i stand on it. And i can say for myself i like that he knows it.. he sees my progress and can cheer for me.. and if i go up he can support and encourage me to make it better the next week. :)

i use to stretch my shin with pushing my toes down until my shin and the upper side of my foot is one straight line

I do it once a week, Tuesday before breakfast. Tuesday because i started on a tuesday and before breakfast because i like to weight myself without food in me that could make me heavier *lol*

Actually that only depends on you. I have seen people starting with the highest they ever have been and then after that putting in the new weight they have not and going from them. The ticker shows how much you lost.. why not getting the great feeling of seeing what you already accomplished when you look at the ticker, as…

First i think that 15 minutes isn't lame and would log it since your mody had exercise even if not much. i can't to much like more than 5 or 10 minutes depending on what and log it everytime, even if only 2 minutes *G* So go ahead. And i give myself a break when i am cramping, no reason to torture your body when it is…

Yeah for me breakfast is "First meal" no matter if morning, noon, afternoon, evening or night. just like Dinner is the second and evening is the third.. i don't go after times because my rhythm is way more different than what most call 'normal' so the rules like "don't eat after 6" and stuff do not apply. *g*

Don't stress yourself. Some people even plan a day a week/month where they just eat what they want and go over their limits. As long as it is not regularly each day or over the whole week it's perfectly fine and you are doing great. Tomorrow is a new day :)

As someone who cannot do standing exercises well i found a youtube video of "chairrobics" some of the exercises are with your feet but not as bad as if you have to stand maybe that helps you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=DE&hl=de&v=P3jhx4F0oAc&feature=user He has also some more great videos, more chair-robics and there…

Just on a sidenote since the OP had some good advice already (hope it helps you *G*) That actually depends on how tall she is and how much she weights PLUS how much she moves. A bigger body needs more calories, logical thing.
