Biggest Loser Show - What did you think?
I really enjoyed the successful stories of the Biggest Loser last night. I cried so many times during the show - that my son asked that we turn if off because it was making me sad, but it was tears of joy. But what made me really sad was the reunion of the 1st place winners. Did you see that most of them gained a bunch of…

Why do people burn more calories than others?
I'm 43, 5'7", 175 pounds and I take boxing and kickboxing an average of 3-5 times a week and run 3 miles, 1-2 times a week.

(Humor) What's your most ridiculous fad diet?
I know I can't be alone in trying so many different diets. I tried to the "3 day before surgery" diet. My friend sent it to me. She said she read that many Dr.'s put their heart patients on a specific diet before surgery. Basically it's starvation and not a long term solution. I did Slim Fast for a week. I have to chew,…

Defeated and Depressed
Hi - I'm new to the MFP. I've been reading for a while and thought it's probably time to introduce myself. I've been on here over a week and haven't lost anything, so apparently I can't do this on my own. I'm fat and I'm defeated. I think about food all the time, when to eat, when not to eat, what to eat, why do I over…
