Need some prayers
This might sound silly to ask, but I'd like to ask those on here that care to pray for my little kitty, Oatmeal. She's about 2 years old, and she's been with us since she was so tiny. We have three cats altogether. Oatmeal is such a Momma's girl. She stays by my side all of the time. If I leave my door closed at night she…

[PICS] So I tried on my PROM dress..
My mother gave me my prom dress when I went over to try on my wedding dress again (I have to every 5 lbs.. it's getting loose XD) and I was surprised by how it fit! When I wore it at prom, it was too tight and uncomfortable. Not to mention my own insecurities at the time. Needless to say, I left prom early. The man in the…

Need some serious help
I just can't seem to get below 146 lbs no matter what I do. I'm beginning to think that I'm on the WRONG TRACK and would like some suggestions. I've decided now to cut down on carbs, hoping that may help shed some of the weight and up my protein by a lot. However, my calorie intake is still quite low as I try to stick…

TVXQ/Cassiopeia
I thought that it would be cool to meet other Cassies on here ^-^ I've been a Cassie since around 2005, after seeing the music video 'Hug'. TVXQ was the group that got me into the Kpop scene and they're the reason that I've studied the language and started to watch movies/dramas.

What do you LOVE the MOST about your body?
Lately, I've seen a lot of people talking about what they hate about their bodies. I think that discussing that can be counter productive when only focusing on the negatives! One thing that I learned to help me on this journey both with success and with self confidence is focusing on the part of me that I liked the most.…

170-147lbs [pics] Warning: Undies D:
Hey MFP! I feel like I post a lot of success posts. But I think I need encouragement as the last few weeks have been rough on me. I've gone down from 170lbs to 147lbs over the last 6-7 months, and it's been a hell of a journey. My goal is to be 135 lbs, but I don't know if it's even attainable, really. In your own opinion,…

Feeling...bad about myself.
I went to get some new dress pants today because mine are too big for me now. I want to stress that I know I'm not obese and I'm not under the delusion that I haven't made good progress in my journey, but in the dressing room the lighting or whatever it was pointed out ALL of my flaws. All of them. I felt so awful when I…

So, the last few days I've been feeling very blah about myself.

Biaxin and Birth Control
I'm currently taking Tricyclen Lo birth control pills and have been for probably a year now. The issue is that I was put on Biaxin a few days ago for Pneumonia. I cannot use condoms due to an unfortunate and painful allergy, and I'm worried that I may be in a bad situation now. We were intimate yesterday, but I've also…

I know I uploaded a progress thread before, but these are pictures I took in workout clothes when I started and throughout the last couple of months. I wanted to share them. Mainly because yesterday, a co worker told me that I was "Fat" because I'm "Shaped" (She said that), and I felt so down. And then I turned to those…
