Morbid obesity & exercise question
My goal is to burn 350 - 450 calories a day. Not much for alot of you, but I have 120 pounds to lose, and am struggling.

Really upset/sad
So...I was down to my LAST pair of jeans that fit me. I have a pair of slacks that fit me as well. The jeans just totally split UP THE BACK when I was getting out of my seat at work. I am so freaking humiliated right now. I ran to the bathroom, cried, ran back to my desk after I calmed down, got my keys and now Im home...I…
