Pics show so much more
Today I've felt like such a failure. Sure the scale is moving slllloooooowwwly but I just haven't been feeling like I'm a success. I looked through the success stories and thought that it might do me good to do a before/after comparison. I looked at a pic of me in about Dec of 2010 and cried, which isn't even my largest. I…

Semi NSV
As I'm preparing to pack for a trip to GA, it comes to my attention that I have very few clothes. I'm a SAHM (with a few accounting clients) and I guess it never really hit me that all I ever wore were "mumus". I had smaller clothing that I kept even as I was getting bigger because I kept telling myself that I WOULD get…

Feeling so good
So I'm still beaching it but the scale seems so slllloooowwww. Recently I decided I would do one of those pic comparisons. I HATE the camera and had a hard time finding any pics from earlier this year but was able to find some from Dec 2009 which was not my biggest weight but still above the 300lb mark. Just thought I'd…

Clean eater, I think
Hi all. I'm new to the group. I started loosing weight in January of this year by going high protein and as close to no carb as possible (not even good carbs). In September, I started doing the South Beach plan but noticed I was still gaining if I ate any processed carbs (bread of any kind, etc.) so I stopped eating them.…

SBD and Clean eating
I recently noticed that as I evolve in eating the South Beach way I am getting closer and closer to what they call eating Clean. I'm not big on dairy but when I do, I make my own Almond milk. Wish I knew how to make cheese ;>)

Does anyone else?
Does anyone else get frustrated when they see pics of smaller folks in the before and after pics. Not hating but my 10 lbs lost barely shows and they loose 4 sizes or so. I think this is one of the most frustrating things for me when it comes to weight loss. I guess because I have so much extra that it's going to take so…

Skin?
I've been doing a lot of research on skin and weight loss lately. I'm only 5'2" so my 300+ lbs had a small area to pack on. As I'm loosing, I've noticed my tummy area (my main problem) is all cottage cheese. I do strength training 5 days a week and am hoping that will help. Most of what I find is loose slowly, exfolliate,…

Opinions - Asthma
So, I've always had issues with Bronchitis and a few years ago my Dr diagnosed it as Asthma and put me on daily meds. When I started loosing weight, I noticed my breathing was improving and we slowy took away the meds. I had always therorized that my weight was a major factor in my breathing issues. Well, Friday night, I…

TODAY'S the day
So, I'm up and ready to start. I've got my weigh in today and wasn't very happy. I'm up quite a bit. I knew I would be since I had a whirlwind anniversary weekend full of fair/festival foods. I'm ready to go though. NOT looking forward to the veggie juice this morning. Hubby said "hold your nose and you'll be fine"..LOL…

What's the purpose of Tea/Coffee
Can someone tell me the purpose of tea or coffee? They want it to be decaff, so I'm guessing it isn't for energy. I like diet green tea but not much else. I am a BIG water drinker and really prefer to just drink water. Any thoughts?
