The Odd Body Shapes
Anyone on MFP have a weird body shape like mine? I've noticed in *most* photos that women losing weight, have rather large chests/large mid sections/large thighs/large behinds. Not all. But a good majority. A "well-rounded"(for lack of better word) weight gain, where the weight is evenly distributed for the most part. Even…

LADIES ONLY: a weird question
I have a SUPER bizarre question. I don't even know if this is the right board for it - sorry if it isn't. I carry a lot of weight in odd places. But the oddest of places .... is my "pum pum" as my boss likes to call it (she makes fun of me still about it, particularly when I wear tights or yoga pants) I get told I have a…

Would anyone on visalus post before/after pics?
I just started doing the body by Vi challenge, drinking the visalus shakes twice a day. Does anyone have any before/after pictures who's on Visalus? Or some progression pics? I'm really intrigued to see real pictures of success stories, other than the ones from the DVD.

Meal Plan - How much have you paid?
Hello! I just paid 150$ for a month of meal plan... I'm wondering if that was reasonable or not? I don't really feel like it was at all. She gave me 6 meals, to eat each day... and that's it. Not a different meal plan for everyday, not a different meal plan for each week. Just 6 meal ideas that I'm to eat the same thing…

Breakouts
This may sound weird... but in the past three weeks, my eating habits have gotten significantly better, and I am breaking out significantly more. Seems like they're everywhere, and they don't STOP coming, you clean one away, three more come, it's killing me. I keep washing my face and stuff just as before -- a little more…

Injured back.
In the summer, I hurt my back so bad I wasn't able to move for three weeks, no bending, no sitting up in bed, no rolling over, nothing. The doctor said eventually it would go away, but I would never fully recover, because I could never lift really heavy things again. This was august. Last week, I was running after the kids…

weird question
Lately, when I try to eat, I just throw up -- stress related. Two questions: 1. If I eat, and 5 minutes later I puke it back up, do the calories count ? Do I log it? 2. I'm going over all my days calories, because all I can keep down is juice when I try, or chicken broth. What do I do?

The First To Go
Hey Ladies & Gents! I'd like to ask, what was the first to go? Was it your butt? Was it your boobs? Was it the weight in your face, or the extra pounds in your belly? What was the first to slide off of you, when you started your journey? Where did it come off from first/fastest? I'm 10lbs lost now, about 65-75 more to go,…

Stretch MARKS?!

But today I found four small stretch marks starting on the front of my stomach. I'm freaking out. Any tips and tricks to keep them from getting bigger? Or redder? Why are they coming NOWWWW, I'm being…

Anyone from Australia or Ireland?
I've been offered a job in Australia, and a job in Ireland. I've never left Ontario, and I hear great things about both, and bad things about both. In Ireland -- I would be in Kells Ireland about an hour from Dublin. In Australia-- I would be in Barossa Valley Australia, about 20 minutes to Adelaide. SO anyone that can…

WORK - the flaw in my diet.
I've joined the gym, I'm trying to eat better, but I work wonky schedules, that sometimes start early, sometimes start late, and I can't create a proper routine for eating! Plus, I walk/take the bus to work, so just driving to grab something to eat at home on lunch doesn't work... what do you recommend is lightweight yet…

Double chin skin?! & Stretch Marks.
If you lose weight, and you've had double chins your whole life... how does losing the weight there work. Do you have loose skin? I have tons of stretch marks on my legs and stomach, can I do anything to get rid of them? Will I get more, the more I lose weight? I'm starting to worry. I may get thin, but I'll have stretch…

When you're sick, like I am right now --can't swallow, infected throat glands/tonsilitis/laryngitis... how are you supposed to eat all you calories? Will your body go into starvation mode? What's the healthiest liquid stuff to have while you can't swallow anything really?

Weighing yourself
I just weighed myself, but with my clothes on. Said I lost four lbs, but I had some clothes on, so I took off one pound for clothes. I had on track pants, underwear, bra, tshirt, and thick fleecy socks. How many should I take off for clothes? Was that too much? I can't weigh myself naked cause the only scale in the house…

Calorie intake?
Mine says 1200 calories a day. I thought at first this would be so little, but now that I'm trying to get up to 1200 calories a day, its actually a lot to eat. I either go over carbs, and have not enough fat. What does your calorie intake say? I had two friends join the site today, and it told them 1200 too. One works out…

Newbie! n00bz.
So, I'm new to this. I posted some of the worst pics of me... actually, the photos are the only body shot photos I've allowed anyone to take in three years. I'm pretty determined this year to get fit and lose weight, so much I've joined this thing and will actually count calories. Too bad it only lets you lose up to 2lbs a…
