I believe it's measure waist at smallest point and hips at widest point. http://www.healthcalculators.org/calculators/waist_hip.asp

Make sure you stretch your feet fully before you get out of bed in the AM and go right into supportive shoes. I had it in both feet at the same time and was on prescription Naproxyn for months. Basically, you want to pull the top of your foot toward your leg. The pain is from the tendon, connecting the ball of your foot…

My breaking point was when I was diagnosed with diabetes. A1C of 12! Now, just over a year later, I'm off all diabetes meds and my A1C is a normal 5.7.

Have your doctor refer you to a Sleep Health Center. They're used to dealing with sleep disorders. It could be a physical problem. In my case, I had sleep apnea and it was totally draining. I would ALWAYS be tired. I was beyond tired, I was physically exhausted after "sleeping" 8 hrs or more. It got to the point that I…

Seriously, 67 lbs lost with a pregnancy in between cannot be considered a failure by any reasonable measure.

The eating is a symptom, not the problem. You said it a couple of times - you hate yourself. But why should you hate yourself? You seem to be a good person who has dealt with a series of difficult situations in your life while trying to better yourself all the way. From all indications, you married a good man, so why all…

Not only did you lose the weight, but you did it while dealing with serious medical issues. Well done!

First of all - CONGRATULATIONS! You're taking the right approach. Add back in some calories and adjust accordingly.

Welcome Back!!!

I used to drink 4-5 cups of coffee a day with cream & 2 sugar. Then I was diagnosed with diabetes and had to lose weight fast. Now I have 1 cup of coffee in the AM with cream & 1 splenda. That's my treat for the day. Otherwise, i drink black tea since I don't mind tea without cream. Along with other diet changes, I was…

I started at 299. Close enough to be part of the group?

Not only did you lose weight but you are nicely toned too! Congrats.

Congratulations & keep up the good work. I've found that tracking weight is a great motivator to try to get to a lower number.

I knew my wife was cheating on me!!! We're obviously married to the same woman.

Have 1/2 of the cookie. Then do something that would burn 100 calories.

But when you describe your weight in stones, 145 lbs would be "10 stone, 5pounds". You would not round it to 10 stone. Also, there have been 10 stones, Rolling Stones that is: Members Mick Jagger Keith Richards Charlie Watts Ronnie Wood Past members Brian Jones Ian Stewart Tony Chapman **** Taylor Bill Wyman Mick Taylor

I know you're only 19 but you're away at school & I have to ask....are you consuming alcoholic beverages that you're not logging? Hope you don't take offense at this.

Hahahaha....great picture. Congratulations!

Congratulations & nice job!

"I'm curious about when one stops being single." Depends if you ask the male in the relationship or the female! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I used to be hot all the time. Now I'm always cold, especially my hands/fingers.

I'm in the same situation. I've been in a rut for about 2 months and put back on about 3 lbs. Last night I had a "come to Jesus" moment with myself and I am re-committing myself to get back on track starting TODAY! Yes we CAN DO IT!

Feels good, doesn't it. Congrats on your achievment.

What an amazing transformation. Congratulations!

I HATE CONDA. Every time she wags that finger I just want to break it off her hand. Can't wait for her to get eliminated.

You continue to be an outstanding inspiration to everyone on this site and, while no one looks forward to surgery of any kind, I can't even begin to imagine how good you're going to feel after the skin and knee surgeries. Good luck on your continuing journey and I look forward to your next update.

I say eggs are GOOD.

I would take it but I would make sure I bring enough for anyone who wants some. That way it becomes more of a sharing item rather than you having something different than everyone else. PS - way to go caddymatt! on the threshold of a 3 digit weight loss.
