We had our 35 year reunion last year and I was thinner than half the people there. It's a good feeling. I hope you get there!

LOL... yeah I went to Florida a couple times for work and I turned the heat on in my hotel room. In July. In Florida. lol In spite of everyone saying how hot it is there, it was 20 degrees cooler than it was in Texas. so I was pretty cold.

You can have those things if you plan them into your total calories. Unless they set off a binge. But sometimes allowing yourself one of something will make you feel like you're not being deprived.

Weight loss is highest the first week. You probably won't lose as much in the following weeks. Like the others said, you should set a more realistic timeframe like 5-6 months.

Where are you shopping? I'm the same size as you roughly and I'm wearing 8s.

I'm 5'4 and 171 would put me at size 14. Technically not too bad but I sure didn't feel healthy.

You could eat a couple hundred calories less every day the rest of the week and take some of it off.. probably not enough calories to undo a 5 pound gain, but any amount going down is always good. Like the others said though, some is likely water.

I've lost all the fat off the bottom of my butt. I can feel my pelvic bone and it hits any chair i sit in. Losing in the past this never happened. This kind of sucks.

Amen! I cook great chili. Chili out of a can sucks.

I think I look really slim from the side but gigantic from the front. I'm in size 8's now so there's no way I'm still fat. Your mind screws with you when it comes to your appearance.

You might be eating a bit more than you think. I'd cut 100-200 more calories and see if it starts to drop.

I will probably have to weigh and log forever. If I don't it creeps back up. You can still eat out.. even all the time, you just have to pick the low cal options.

I use Humectress conditioner by Nexus. It's really amazing. Work it into the ends and leave it in. Your hair can't be repaired, it's not alive, but this stuff will make your hair feel 100X better until the damage grows out. Personally I also wash my hair at night, and let it dry while I'm sleeping so I don't have to use a…

You should take boxing or something. It never hurts to expel rage by hitting something instead of eating. :)

You guys must've missed the other thread where some guy's coworker was telling everyone he had HIV because he lost weight. People are nuts.

I usually cut restaurant meals into halves or even 3rds. A plated restaurant meal is way too much food at one sitting. And then I'll also try to have a light breakfast and lunch. I don't usually do too badly.

I never do.

Not a petty reason but I took some photos recently and not only looked thinner, but I fit in cuter clothes. win.

There are a lot of stores that sell clothes that run small. Hot topic is one. But they're not exactly business professional clothes. Online clothing stores based out of Asia do have clothes that run small, but you have to be careful as a lot of times they're not well made. your best bet might be learning to sew.

I just like being able to buy and wear cuter clothes.

I got loose skin after 30 pounds. When I was younger it always snapped back. Now it isn't. I'm told keeping the weight off for a few years will improve it, but obviously I'm not going to have the same results I did 20 years ago.

This has been going on for months now. Does anyone know if there are any weight lifting exercises that are good for increasing the muscle down there? I figure squats probably but that can't be it. I can literally feel my tailbone and pelvis.

two examples from my last job: Guy who did 1/3 the work everyone else did because he was always watching videos on his phone, Another guy who wasn't smart enough to do the work, who had little techniques to scam others into doing it for him. Gets away with it because he kisses upper management's butt. Chronic lying issues.

I've lost all the fat on my butt. My tailbone hurts whenever I sit.

I wanted to be a weight I weighed in the past. Back when I was thin and thought I was fat. I was dumb about things in my 20s.

Wow. He might as well just go tell all your friends you're dying. People are so...... adjectives fail. lol
