Good Luck!! I started here July 2011 and so far I have lost most of what I wanted too. My husband and I are working together on our lifestyle change. He still wants to lose 100 more. We are working out in a pool it is much easier on our old bones (I am 48 and he is 55) and get this it burns more calories because you have…

I love Thanksgiving. Last year I was logging on and it wasn't too bad. I don't put my diary public because I don't like some of the comments I have seen by others about peoples diary. I try and take a small salad plate eat the things I want in small doses. That way if I do go back for seconds I wont feel so bad. Also I try…

Thier was a boy that went to school with my son his name was Justin Case.

If you are asking me they are regular sized one. I used to make the cupcakes but now I just make a 9x12 sheet cake and cut it into 24 pieces. Even if you eat two servings it is still less than 200 calories and they are very filling for me.

If you like pumpkin bread try this I got the recipie from a friend on weight watchers and they are amazing. I usually add pumpkin pie spice to add more pumpkin flavor. I bring these into work when everyone in on a diet they love them. Ingredients 1 (15 ounce) cans pumpkin 1 (18 ounce) boxes Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe Spice…

I have had my ups and downs and 7 years ago I was 180 lbs. I am 5 foot 4 inches tall. I lost weight and 5 years ago I was only 140 lbs. I still wanted to lose some but I was at a good weight. So 1.5 years ago I was back up to 171 lbs. That was so discouraging that I wanted to cry. I have had issues all my life with weight…

Dont give up the ones that have lost alot probably have alot to lose. I only had 40 lbs to lose and so far I am down 35 it has taken me a entire year. At least I know that it will never come back because I am still eating what i want just less of it and of course more fruit and veggies. I use to get discourage at how…

My husband and I exercise before we go to bed for simular reasons. We fall right asleep. Actually on those days it is eaiser to fall asleep.

I was looking for nutrition on sushi because my favorite sushi doesn't have nutrional counts. I found this site where you can create your own sushi roll and it shows you the nutritional values. I created my roll I always order and saved and added it to my foods. http://www.mymakisushi.com/nutrition.php I would never give…

This sounds great I can't wait to try it. :happy: Thank you for posting the nutritional information with your recipe.

You are not the only couple. I have to go to bed angry sometime or I will be very angry at work the next day. How come the biggest arguments happen on a Sunday night? Well at least it is that way for me. In the morning we usually forget what the arguement was about anyway and if we remember you are right cooler heads in…

Married 25 years here and the best advice I ever recieved was. Sometimes you have to agree to disagree You are not the same person so you will not agree on everything. Another piece of good advice I recieved very early in my relationship was fight the big fights and let the little ones go. For example my husband had strong…

Let me tell you me and my husband have been losing weight together and it is very hard for me to not be jealous. He can eat about 1000 calories more than me a day and that does bug me. I know at times I have mentioned that he can eat alot more than me and still lose the weight and that has hurt his feelings. I am sorry…

I am a retired military member. I served for 20 years. I have never been a recruiter however if you are serious about joining you should go talk with them. They will work with you and let you know where you need to be in order to join each service. I needed to lose a few pounds before I joined also and then bootcamp took…

My husband and I started our life style change July 19th, 2011. I know it has only been 7 months but my husband lost 61 pounds. I always wonder about people that loose it so fast how is that possible. We are working out 5 days a week right now but we only started at 3 days and slowly built up to the 5 days. He wants to…

I love this topic. My husband and I started our "Life style change" as he calls it last July 19th. He has lost 61 lbs to date and I have lost 24 lbs. We are doing this together since we both are (I mean were) unhealthy. We were both in the Military for 20 years and during that time the training kept us in shape. Once we…

I am 47 years old and 5' 4.5" at my lowest I was 120 lbs (around 25 years old) and I was too skinny. I think it depends on the person. At both my lowest weight and my highest weight (180 Lbs) I had health issues. I am a medium framed person and 135 is a good weight for me.

My son worked at McDonald's and he said they do this so the hamburger is hot. Special orders are made as you order them.

I know when I started out I was drinking sugar free beverages and I was getting splitting headaches. Some people are allergic to artificial sweeteners. Try and not use them for a while see if that helps with the headaches.

I like yours so much I started to look up other cartoons. How about this one.

I was thinking the same thing!! LOL

It is just a way to save the post in your topics so you can find it easier.

I usually am just honest with people and tell them I am watching my calories that usually works. Some people are very persistant however so I will then lie and tell them I am full because I just ate. If they dont get the hint this time I will just walk away and ingore them. I know that is rude but then again they are being…

My husband is the best cook he is making the veggie and shrimp stir fry.

Are you on any new medications. Sometimes that will mess with your diet. I am not a doctor I have just had medicians that have effected my weight. I hope you find out what is happening soon so you won't give up for good. Good Luck

Yes!! So I try to eat more fruits and veggies they fill you up with lower calories and sodium. Also popcorn or rice cakes with lots of water somestimes works for me.
