It's me again, Margaret. I need some buddies
I've been here before and left like an idiot. I think all of my old friends have lost some faith in me and I could really use some encouragement. I'm working on making the changes I have to make to change my lifestyle and I am making progress, it's just not as fast as I would like. My high weight was 367. Today I sit at…

What home gym should I get?
My birthday is coming up in a couple weeks and I've asked for a home gym for my birthday. I already have an elliptical and a rowing machine but I really enjoy lifting more than cardio. I've been looking on eBay and there are some great deals to be found there. Thing is, this is my first go around with a home gym. I would…

Knee: Heat or Cold?
The obvious answer is "cold" and that is what I've always used. I have arthritis in both knees (and elsewhere) and heat just feels so good to my body when it's cold and raining like it is today. I was just wondering if a heat wrap around my achey, cold knee would help on top of feeling amazing or would it just make it…

That Creepy Guy at Work
Does anyone else have that creep at work that would be cute if he weren't so dang creepy? This guy knows he's good looking and flirts with absolutely EVERY woman he deems cute enough to flirt with.

Setting and Reaching Your Goals
"The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, learn about them, or even seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them." ~ Denis Waitley I have been…

Has anyone else had this issue? I have a desk job and since I've lost weight my tail bone aches. I'm thinking of getting a pillow to sit on but I don't want to be made fun of. I just don't see that there's much else I can do though. Ideas?

Anyone get depressed but still doing good?
I don't know why I go through bouts of depression. I know I am doing good and losing at a steady rate. I am healthier than I was before I started, no doubt about that. I eat right most of the time. I have small indulgences because I know if I don't, I won't stick with this. I should be on top of the world, right? I'm just…

The Sweetest / Most Encouraging Thing Anyone Has Said
My Dad is a man's man. Everything he drives has Flowmasters on it. There is a race car in the garage. He has spare engines, rear ends and crankshafts. He's not very vocal about his feelings. About a week ago, he and I were alone and he looked at me and said, "You've always been beautiful. You're just going to get more…

Shrinkyourself.com?
Has anyone seen this site or heard of this Dr. Gould guy? His program is $100 but it looks really helpful for an emotional eater (me). I just wonder if anyone has tried it or knows anyone who has.
