I didn't want to, but I did it! I walked to Burger King and back home and didn't even buy anything there! Haha! A long walk and willpower! Gotta love it!

Such cute pets on this thread! My partner and I have an aquarium full of adorable fishies and a lil' bunny rabbit named Healey. We've always wanted to get a dog but since we live in such a small place we're waiting until we have a bigger place. But for now our aquarium and rabbit are good...

Thanks, Shez! I feel so liberated! :D

Yes! TPBM is chewing gum today.

YAYAYAYA!!! OKAY OKAY OKAY I couldn't help myself... I stepped on the scale since I was going to update my stats on here. I know it's just water weight, but I'm already down 11.3lbs! YAHOOHOOO...

You know what? I've been thinking... I think it's time that I just face facts and admit how much I weigh. That way, I can hold myself accountable. I mean, how much I weigh isn't a crime, right? I mean, I started to really think about how hypocritical I have been since I'm telling everyone...

Exactly! I think it's important to be healthy, but if you're only attracting people who want you for the way you look, you're going to end up with someone who is going to start looking elsewhere once the looks fade. Even though I can't stand her, I feel bad for my mate's ex-wife. She used to...

Great thread idea! I'm good at a lot of things... I've been told I have a beautiful voice by other members in my choir group, so that's always nice when others are willing to compliment you. I am also very good at my job and my boss is constantly telling me how hard of a worker I am. I'm...

Don't worry-- one pound ain't nuttin'! I bet you'll be three pounds down by the end of next week. ;)

Yes! I do! I even sing in a choir at church, too! Good job! ;) TPBM likes motorcycles.

I have 3 tats and an eyebrow piercing. I would never do the eyebrow again-- hurt like hell. Always wanted my tongue done though. My tats were drawn by my friend who is an artist/has his own shop in NYC. I have one on the back of my left shoulder with my sister's initials with a pair of...

UUUUUGGGHHHH!!! Sorry but I need to vent. It's very hard to stick to any program when you're having problems at home. My mate's son is a lil' hellion. He is 15 years old and is always getting suspended at school. His mom has issues of her own and me and my mate cannot take the drama that...

The easiest way to do it would be to highlight what you want to reply to, and then click that little "word balloon" button on the end of the formatting options when you reply. It should quote it for you.

No, but I am new, so you never know what is to come later on down the road! :D TPBM is a very helpful person and would be a good counselor.

Thanks! I was hoping people would like chiming in on it-- I find it to be a great topic of discussion, too, and didn't see it brought up here (as far as I can tell). I like hearing (reading) everyone's opinion on the matter. Yes. However, there is that whole "sexual chemistry" thing. We...

Okay, so today the scale went up, even though I did really well yesterday and stuck to my eating/exercising plan. Because of this constant water weight fluctuation and hormonal/menstruation issues going on right now, I've decided that I'm only going to weigh myself once per month (on the 18th...

Well, see, that's the thing. If your preference is such that you like someone who is thin or who has blond hair or who has brown eyes, that's your preference. I don't fault anyone for liking what they like and I agree with you there. Personally, I am most attracted to tall guys (at least...

Would you date someone who didn't want to date you while you were overweight, but suddenly developed interest in you once you were thinner/at your ideal weight? I'm already in a relationship with a wonderful man whom, thanks to having a heavier mother whom he loves dearly, is very...

I've known quite a few people over my lifetime who have been obese/morbidly obese women who have lost a great deal of weight (most through lap band/gastric bypass). The most recent woman, now that she's hit her goal weight, has started to put fat/obese people down. She actually started doing...

I'm trying to collect a bunch of satisfying WW Points recipes that are vegetarian (that is, no meat or fish, however it can have dairy and eggs). If they are vegan (i.e. no animal products whatsoever) that's even better! Do any of you have some recipes to share? I'm about to head on over to...

I do but I only wear my flip-flops... even in the winter! :giggle: TPBM is drawing up a new plan of action!

Doogie Howser, MD

Correction! There are two minimin apps! Both have ads. Check your smartphone App Store again. They are slightly different. Both good.

Love the app! It's just like the TapaTalk app but with ads.

I will forever look pregnant. *sigh* :8855:

Hi, Julb! Welcome to the forum! I keep seeing Slimming World, so I must ask, what is it, exactly? lol! :) I guess it must be a UK diet program? Haven't heard about it in the States. Anyway, good luck to you! This is a great place you've found here.

First off, I LOVE the title of this thread! Second, you look GREAT! Great work, hon! :)

Me too! I'm excited to hear this! :)

Love love LOVE that Couch to 5k app. I miss running so much, but my knees and left ankle (had a serious injury to it when I was 13 that never properly healed) just can't tolerate it. But I'm glad you're trying it out. My tip to you is just follow the app! It starts you off REALLY slowly...

Yes, it is possible to be "big boned" as they say. Why, look at different cultures.... If you stand me, someone who is half Italian and half Polish/Russian/German, next to someone at the same height who is, I dunno, of Chinese heritage, you're going to see major differences most likely...

First of all, hon, congratulations on your weight loss!!! :bliss:To lose 8lbs. in the first week is a MAJOR accomplishment, water weight or not. Yes, weight we first lose in the beginning is water weight, BUT it has to start SOMEWHERE, right? I've lost water weight so far and I'm ecstatic over...

Just curious... Now, I don't think I'd ever really go through with this because I'm at the point in life where I'm not too concerned about how my body looks. Well, I am, but I'm more concerned about I feel. However... I saw online here (or maybe it was another site) where someone said they...

CORRECTION!: Okay, so I decided to try weighing myself one more time because, you know, scales can be wonky sometimes. I let my body settle for an hour and tried it again. Turns out I DID lose weight! I'm down 0.8lbs. MUCH better than GAINING 0.4! Yay! Hey, every little bit helps and...

Thanks, Shez! :)

Okay, so I woke up in the middle of the night very thirsty. I feel like I'm retaining a lot of water. I could be from the Lean Cuisine meal I had yesterday in conjunction with other foods, because when I woke up to weigh myself, I was up 0.4 again. So now the weight loss is down from 3.4lbs...

Yes! :) TPBM has a rather hunky, outdoorsy significant other who is good with the land and animals.

Hair loss is normal when your body goes under a big weight change or is under stress (emotional and/or physical). I ALWAYS have this problem (especially since I had my gallbladder out). The key is to lose weight S-L-O-W-L-Y (i.e. most people who get the gastric bypass and other stomach...

45 Seconds of Ecstasy - Meatloaf

I wouldn't kick him out of bed, that's for certain. :D TPBM has a really important meeting coming up this week!

This is very unusual for me and I'm not sure why this is happening, but... I haven't been diagnosed with PCOS, and I don't think I have it, but I wasn't sure where else to ask this question. I do have some of the symptoms of PCOS, but I don't think I qualify since my periods do come monthly...

subscribed! :)

Right now I'm only walking 2 miles. I used to be a gym rat when I was in my 20's so "just" walking is really minimal for me. But right now, at my weight and shape, it's the only thing I can handle. I hope to add in some weights and yoga/stretching later on. I don't think I'll ever go back to...

It's going well! Getting ready to do my exercise today. How you doing? Do you have an online journal, too, that I can sub to?

Thanks so much! :)

Oh awesome! Then I'm going to have to quickly catch up! Maybe once I do I'll start a Mob City thread and we can chat about it. :)

Thanks! Feb 10th can't come fast enough! And, no, I haven't watched MC yet! That started this past December, right? I'm going to try to see if there are episodes to download from iTunes yet (or Hulu or other sources). I'm not one for the "film noir" kinda theme, but I'll watch anything with...

Great idea for a thread! This place needs some desperate cleaning... I will have to report back later on in the week when I actually get some work done.... lol!

Ack! Should have gone with my gut instinct. Would have received a perfect score if I hadn't backtracked on the movie question. Questions correct: 9 / 10 You took 89 seconds to complete this quiz. Total score: 811

Don't laugh, but I put it up November 1st. :p And Halloween decorations go up mid-September. :D However, I'm starting to feel like I don't want to do it any longer. I've kinda stopped feeling like I want to go through the hassle of decorating. I dunno... maybe this year I'll still do it...

I know this is an old thread, but I have to post a reply! Yes! A long time ago I bought this BEAUTIFUL dress at a discount store. It is a Jones New York dress (summer) and its the most beautiful shade of green I have ever seen. (I love wearing the colors green and pink!) The cut of the...

My ex-b/f got me hooked on it back when Season 3 was starting. I remember telling everyone I knew "You MUST watch this show, it's brillz!" It is, hands-down, one of the smartest TV dramas ever created. Nothing tops it in my book.

I love TWD! Two of the sexiest male actors (IMHO) have appeared on there-- Jon Bernthal (Shane) and David Morrissey (The Governor). Yeah, I have a thing for "bad guys" I suppose! :D I can't wait until it starts again! When is it starting up again? February? Or March? I think March it's...

So, today I woke up and I was 3.4 pounds down. I felt so happy and relieved. I'm a little shy when it comes to writing out my starting weight. I think when I lose about half of my weight I may "open up" more about how much I weigh, but right now I like to keep it under wraps. Also, when I...

Okay! Here we go! :stickdance: Yesterday I started my Weight Watchers program (at home-- didn't sign up at a center or online). I am using an app on my smartphone and it ROCKS! :party0011: I don't want to "plug" it since it may be against the rules here, so sorry for not naming it...

VerdePurdy , I feel like I'm stalking you... hahaha! You keep bumping old threads and I keep posting right after you. You're picking great threads, what can I say? :D Same here! That, and, I just feel horrible all of the time. I have a lot of other health issues going on and the extra...

Even though my face has gotten fatter than I like it to be, I think I have a pretty face for the most part, i.e. lips, eyes, nose, skin, etc. I also have really nice naturally curly, soft hair. I like my height... not too tall and not too short. Even though I used to hate them before, I like...

I'm grateful for the fact that I stuck to my diet yesterday (first day!) and the scale showed the results. :D

At this time next year, I'd like to: - have at least 70% of my excess weight gone (and gone for good!) - feel better/be more active - be committed to a daily meditation schedule - be flexible like I used to be when I was younger (you know, the whole "putting your legs behind your head" thing...

If you do Weight Watchers there are fabulous apps for them, but you have to Google to find 'em, since they don't go under the words "Weight Watchers" for legal reasons.

Nine pounds in a week?-- that's brilliant! Keep it up! You're doing excellent!

Wow, such an inspiring story! Thanks for sharing that with us! You look (and must feel) great! :)

Face and boobs are always the first to go for me, and usually the first things people comment on as well.

Great work, John-Boy! I'm so happy for you-- you're doing great! :) :woohoo:

Haha-- "see-food" diet... yes, I used to be on that one, too. ;) Eating out has been a major problem for me. I notice when I stop giving into temptation and swerving away from the Drive-Thrus, I do much better. Anyway welcome to the site from one newbie to another! :)

Congrats on quitting smoking! That's fantastic. I hear it's one of the hardest things to quit, so good job! I'm also vegetarian (and new!) so perhaps we can bump into one another and exchange good recipes. I'm following Weight Watchers-- do you have a specific plan you're following? See you...

Hi! My name is Angel and I just started doing Weight Watchers yesterday. Already I'm seeing results and I love it! I did WW once before when I was in my late teens, however I did it too drastically (to almost the point of developing an eating disorder) and ended up doing major damage to my...
