How much is too much? Or are others just different?
So I workout 5-6 days a week, and most days I usually w/o between 90-120mins. My sister tells me weekly that I border on obsessive. I do take rest days, and I eat really well. I've upped my calories, and if I'm hungry, I eat. WTF! There are the rare days when I may workout 3-4 hours, but it's broken up, and 75 mins of that…

Anyone else annoyed?
Do posts about eating your exercise calories back annoy you? This probably sounds b*tchy, but I don't eat mine back, and yet I still am healthy, and have been able to not only lose weight, but keep it off. I think it's a little much when others "claim" to know what is best for everyone. Personally if you want to do that,…

Do you see what everyone else sees?
I've been struggling for months to really see what's in the mirror. On August 6th I celebrated my 10 month anniversary of my new way of life, and after losing 102lbs, I don't see what others do. Body dysmorphia? I know that I've gone from a size 22 to a 10/12, but I still go to the plus section of stores. Is it ever going…

Do you have a people (or person) in your life that discourag
I have a 'friend' that is on my case when I see her about what I eat. When we went to a bridal shower recently she was giving me a hard time throughout the lunch that I need to eat. I did, I just didn't eat the cream of broccoli soup, the breaded, fried chicken, or the desserts. WTF! Knowing that I have been doing this for…

Anyone else nauseous in the morning?
Good morning MFP. The last few weeks I have been horribly nauseous in the morning (no, it's not pregnancy *bite your tongue*), and I was wondering if it might be because of the long hours inbetween the time I eat my last meal, until breakfast. Sometimes it is 11 hours, sometimes it's 9. Some mornings it is so bad I have a…

Finally making the connection with emotional eating
Hello everyone! Yesterday was a terrible day. My husband & I are involved in a lengthy, and horribly stressful court battle over my mentally ill son. Needless to say for the last 10 years I have been turning to food when life became too much. Since October I have made huge changes in my life. I've dropped 75lbs, and I…

Lift the amount of weight that you've lost
I've lost 71.2 lbs in 7 months. Yesterday I had my trainer place 70lbs on the rack, and I placed it on my back. Oh man! How was I carrying that around all the time? No matter the amount you've lost, pick up something that is the same, and really look how far you've come. At weight watchers last year they had us lift a can…
