feel free to add me (this is to all repliers). I've been gone a while and it feels like my friends are gone too.

Tampa, Florida, USA

I just started trying to eat better(again) this week and last and was horrible over the weekend. I think I heard a nutritionist say the best thing was to make sure you chew everything really well. Chew until there is nothing to chew. I don't know how much it will help with the problem but it definitely won't hurt any to do…

People who turn left and "cut the corner off" not turning sharp enough to stay out of the oncoming lane... especially when there's another car in the lane. Next time you are at a stop light, watch the people turning left into your lane. You'll see it I guarantee. and people who don't respect other people or the property of…

well said. I am a daughter of teachers and former teachers aide until I received my greatest student of all, my son. If it weren't for all the "over paid babysitters" we wouldn't have drs or lawyers, or business starters or police or any kind of society what-so- ever. Teachers should be treated with the same respect as the…

I think someone told me once that if you have your lifestyle as sedentary then you record everything, including cleaning. but If you have it at moderate, then don't record cleaning.

Congrats Lady!!!!

You worked for it honey, flaunt it!! Some one mentioned above that your husband should be the only one to see you like that and I somewhat agree, so my advice would be make sure your husband is ok with other guys seeing so much skin.

I agree with your decision. some of you have written that keeping him inside would require the teacher to stay in... well, the teacher needs to be outside supervising the playground. there are other classrooms the child could have gone to while his classmates are outside. The school was just being stubborn and coddling.…

I grew up on a farm so while in school I worked off everything that I ate. Growing up on a southern farm, we ate horribly. When I started college, I wasn't able to work on the farm as much, add to it the mounds of fast food and the fact that I went out with friends at least twice a week, so I was eating nasty greasy food…

HAHAHAHA :laugh:

I border on obese, even tho I'm a size 12. the WII tells me that I should weigh 129. I know my body and how I would look if I weighed that and it would be sickly. So I picked around 140. I feel like I could carry that well and not look awful, besides, my hubby doesn't like super thin women.

I don't even think that would be possible on HCG, they talk about 1-2 lbs a day.

i'd like to be in.

I leaned a lot, glad you asked the question.

I have a few friends who have tried this (he is REALLY good at maintaining his weight and not good at actually getting it off) who loves it and he looks amazing. He and his wife keep their weight on the bathroom mirror with dry erase and they lose a pound a day it looks like. Other friends hated it and couldn't get past…

Slimothy, I have heard the water to weight ratio as well. Jersey, I think it would help to go buy a really sexy water bottle that we just love carrying around AND can clip to a purse or a bag. Thanks all for encouragement, good luck and God bless to you all.

a few things. 1) glad you restrained yourself.. good job 2) you know you are making progress, what you are doing is working for you ok, two things, not a few. But as a parent, I have had to deal with unwanted advice and you just have to learn to let it roll off your back, if not you will either wind up in jail for hurting…

Thanks all for your advice. Very helpful. Good luck to you all and God bless.

I agree, I am 5'4" and weigh 175 technically bordering on obese but I wear a size 12. My grandmother weighs about the same I do and is in an 18. If I weighed what the Wii tells me too (129) I would look anorexic. I want to be in a size 8.. I'm thinking 140ish.

I started today and weighed about a pound more than yesterday. I"ve never paid much attention before.

I have a good friend who has done this for a while and it worked for him, he loved it and looks amazing. I looked into it and it didn't seem right for me

It seems you have two choices 1) have only one drink and hang out with your friends or 2) get friends who don't drink (yes it can be done in college)

I can't do push-ups very well. And I can't do even one pull-up, kind of makes me glad I don't have a trainer to force that upon me.

I asked this a couple of days ago and got about as many answers and people answering. One person said she weighed everyday but only logged it here once a week. I was going to do that but got discouraged today when I weighed more than yesterday. So long to short, whatever you are comfy with. Good luck. :drinker:

When the only crying you do in the dressing room are tears of joy because things actually fit the way they are supposed to. (not here yet.)

Congrats.... Hoping you can find another pair of leather pants that fit you- Amazon, thrift stores.....

Holy cow!! you look good.

I"ve only been here about a week. I haven't really paid attention to anything but calories. If I want to stay with in my calorie range and actually get full then I have to eat better food, that will automatically cut down on fat. I've never paid much attention to protein and carbs.... maybe I should, a little.

I did day two today.
