  • Sometimes it takes people who work with you a while to see the weightloss. then when they do, they suddenly think you look too thin, because they are used to seeing you much bigger. It will just take them some time to adjust. I got a lot of the same comments and I havent even lost that much. I was over at my mom's house…
  • Day 9 completed last night.
  • It sounds like she is starting to get a bit body conscious, as others stated she is too young to join, and I think teaching her to track calories, especially as she is about to hit HS is going to set her up for ED's and obsessive calorie counting. Right now, just sit her down and have a talk with her about basic good vs…
  • Bump actually is an acronym as well Bring Up My Post But its just easier to type bump
  • Finished l1 day8 last night, had planned on doing it twice last night but someone came over so I didnt get the second round done. Will try and do two tonight. Have to travel for work next week, will be taking my dvd and laptop and hopefully will have enough room in the hotel for level 2
  • This group is for 30 Day Shred (30DS) which is a dvd by Jillian Michaels. So we are all following the dvd, there are groups that pop up for this now and again we are about 9-10 days in for this group so its a bit late to jump in but you could probably find a group just starting. I did not do day 8 last night. I also…
  • Completed Day 7 of Level 1 last night, so one week in! Going to see if I can double up tonight to get back to 8 days like I started and to start prepping me for level 2. I have a couple of variations, but this morning for breakfast I had one medium sized egg, scrambled with mushrooms (sometimes I use squash too). I take a…
  • Not only have you lost another you but he took 10 years off your face when you booted him out the door! You look amazingly younger now, congrats on your huge success!
  • That doesnt sound quite right, cant say whether or not its possible. It may have something to do with the fact that you gave your body a break and were a little bad this week, our bodies do need rest and sometimes being a little bad is something that can help your body let go of some water weight when you go from being…
  • Missed a few days on this thread, I started shredding last sunday (16th) but missed Friday because I completely forgot about it (didnt get home until 11 pm! due to a series of small emergencies). Got back on track Saturday so right now I am sitting at 6 days of shredding and then I will do my 7th shred tonight. Thinking…
  • I am also 5'4", the "ideal" for someone with our height and a medium frame starts at120, for a small frame its 107, I want to say a large frame is 135 then goes up to 147 or so on the large frame range. Lately I have started to get some of the "you really dont need to lose THAT much more weight". I am at 135ish, and 5'4"…
  • The employee mislead you. I didnt work at a subway per se but I worked at a place that served subs before. The bread is not parbaked, the sticks are sticks of frozen dough in perfect proportions to be cooked to make a foot long loaf. They dont put any chemicals on the bread they only spray water on the sticks before…

  • Not sure I have been keeping up in this thread but I have been doing my shred everyday. Completed day 5 last night.
  • Ditch the lean cuisine, its full of salts and is a lot of times just small portions of empty foods (especially pastas!). This might seem like a hassle but what you really need to do is start making your own meals at night. You can eat several plates of broccoli before its going to equal one lean cuisine box. Try and stick…
  • 1200 calories should be an okay amount and shouldnt cause the hair loss and brittle nails. You will probably see a large improvement when you start eating cleaner. Fish are very omega rich and fantastic for your hair, you could also take some fish oil supplements to help. You may want to try a compromise of 1300 calories…
  • Did a bit of looking into this (le gasp!) This lawsuit is on a detox and cleanse supplement. You can call it a 'diet pill' if you want but its not the typical "Take these pills and you will lose 50lb doing nothing!" pill. Its supposed to be a 'flush' pill, that takes down bloat and helps to remove toxins. From what I can…
  • Are you upset because they made you pull your pink thong picture? Kidding! No one shoot me please...
  • I should post these before I forget Chest: 37" waist: 28" belly: 36" Hips: 38" SW: 137.6 CW 135.8 GW: 129
  • I am a little over 5'4", if anyone wants to add me I could really use some good supporters.
  • Day 4 completed for level 1
  • Well I cant get it to work either, its a photobucket issue not a mfp issue. Huge difference though, so congrats!
  • Congrats! that is wonderful
  • I understand a little where the OP is coming from. She is feeling frustrated that people are essentially congratulating others for bad decisions. I dont think anyone here eats 100% healthy all the time. We all have our junk food splurges now and again. But it seems like she is frustrated seeing a diary where someone is…
  • I am going to venture a no, not in a remotely safe way in any case. When you start out you may drop a handful of pounds in the first couple weeks from water weight and the initial shock to your system, though a lot of that depends on how much weight you have to lose in the first place, if you are only 20lbs over the ideal…
  • Day1 (technically 2) complete! Was a bit more sore than I realized once I really got into the excercises and today I skipped steps climbing the stairs on my 2 mile lunchtime walk, with the weights on it really got my legs working and they are sore! going to give myself a massage and hope I am not too sore tomorrow.
  • Actually, in Korean cooking there is something called Sweet Flower Pancakes, which actually do have flowers (edible ones) in them, so I imagine it wouldnt be too hard to incorporate flowers into waffles.
  • I make up my recipes as I go, I find its hard to go wrong with a crock pot as it cooks things for you. I often just throw in what I feel I would like to eat that night, so it can be just about anything. Usually I start with a meat or bean base and add in things as I go. So some things I have made in the past chicken…
