Give yourself permission to be extra good to you! Go out and get a new book, rent a good movie, take a bubble bath, manicure, pedicure, do a bunch of things that make you feel good. The pain of a break up will take time to get over and is a major adjustment. My mother always told me when I was hurt to take it one day at a…

I stuggle with this myself. I pack my work lunches and snacks in advance. I very rarely give in to the tempation of bagels or donuts that always seem to make their way into the office....BUT...when I get home bad things happen! I have found a couple things that help. They dont make this problem go away entirely but they…

I went through all of these quotes, picked out my favorite and printed them on labels. I am going to use them as topics for my weightloss journal. Each day I intend on taking one of the quotes and writting a couple paragraphs about what it really means to me and how I can apply it my goals. Great thread, best one so far!

Love it! What a great post. Thanks for the inspiration!

This is one of my favorite recipes because its so simple and versatile. They freeze really well too! I like to add different extracts like maple or coconut. :love:

Sounds like I am in the same boat as a lot of you. After watching my sister go through a pregnancy while she was 330 pounds plus I refuse to go through the same. She had gestational diabetes and preeclampsia and the baby was premature. He spent his first month in the NICU after an emergency c section. My fiance and have…

Yes and if you make 18 muffins then they are only 78 calories each. Im sure you could lower the fat with reduced calorie peanut butter and the calories with splenda brown sugar too! If you add a tablesoon or two of chocolate chips then you really feel like you are having dessert.

:flowerforyou: I am so glad to hear that I am not the only one that is frustrated by gastric bypasses. I totally agree that for some people it is the answer. It is not the answer for me though! My sister and best friend have recently had the surgery and tell me all the time that I need to do the same. It is so frustrating.…

Ugh! The weekends are the worst! It's easier to control what I eat during the work week. I can pack my breakfast, lunch and snacks and stay right on track. When the weekend rolls around, its another story. The fridge is too easily accesible and I LOVE to bake for my boyfirend and his son, who are both skinny of course :0)

Right now I'm at about 4. The redness is almost all gone (there are a few spots here an there), more than half the bumps are gone. When I rub my hand down the back of my arms I can barely feel anything other than soft happy skin. Im keeping my fingers crossed that it keeps working. My boyfriend and my boss are really the…

To all you out there going to give this a try please remember that you really have to follow the routine. It is so important. If I don't all the steps as I should the bumps come back very quickly. I can't tell you how many times I tried to make the bumps go away. I thought they were pimples so I treated them as I would any…

I've heard that this works from a couple different people. Do you mind telling me how much you pay for it? I haven't come across it yet, but Im curious!

There is another type of skin irritation that is called Phrynoderma or Hyperkertatosis is caused by vitamin A deficiency.…

Ha! I know what I will be listening to on the way home from work!

I bug them every month or so about making a ranch flavored light wedge! I LOVE LAUGHING COW!!! Also you can make an excellent apple dip by mixing 1 tsp of brown sugar with 1 wedge of the light original and a drop of vanilla. :happy:

That is an excellent idea! I see myself using that in the near future :0)
