That's a sweet story CD!

San,

I've always heard that any mother would prefer their child bouncing off the wall than laying on the couch sick! This is so true. I want boys someday.  Have fun with that.

CD,

That's horrible. Poor you. How do you get the motivation to continue on in this field of work?

Leslie,

That sounds like a horrible thing to do for a living but I am sure you help so many people and have saved soooo many lives. I commend you.  Your a good woman for that!

Truly, plan on not working next year on Eve and N Y Day. That'll relieve a bit of stress. Good luck!

I have never heard of your heart rate going up after a night of drinking but I can confirm that one will lose a lot of white blood cells.  Alcohol, unless in moderation, is simply not good for you.  Hope this helps.

Andie,

Don't feel bad. Even if I didn't break up with him, I'd be right there with you going to bed early.  What's all the talk about anyways simply because were moving from 08 to 09 in a matter of an one second increase?  I feel like I'm just not in the holiday spirit....Guy's meet the New Year's grinch!

Never tried it! I am concerned about the brownies to the side of this forum that keep blinking at me.  I am craving food hard right now.  And with me staying up this late, I am destined to jack up my sleep patterns.  This is going to hurt me brutally.

Skook,

That does sound relaxing--the bath and all. Maybe I'll do that when I go home, bubble-bath and relax (no wine though, unneeded calories that just aren't worth it as it is too close to my weigh-in date). 

...I wonder how many speeding tickets and DUI's cops gave out this year? It's a shame that people will really try to test cops on N Y's day huh.

Because too many people are getting into car accidents, falling down stairs, and needing stab lab work for one reason or another!

Sheesh.  I only NOW got to sit down and eat lunch, and it's only because I'm putting off my 2 AM orders for a few minutes.

Poor you CD! Well, I hope your night gets much better after all of the ranting and raving these accident-prone people are putting you through. Good luck with that.

I crave food all the time. I doesn't help that in the gym I work out in you see Taco Bell commercials, and Burger King, McDonald's, Arby's, Krystals, Chik Fil a, Subway cookies, Pizza Hut and every other fast food that your going to have to basically pass while driving on the way home from the gym! I can control myself but its just the principal of it all. I am so hungry right now just thinking about everything that I listed. However, I have this don't eat after 5 pm rule that really works so, I have to starve myself to sleep. Does anyone else do this?

This happened to me too, living with a man that can eat whatever, and not gain a lb.  So, I recently moved back home with my parents and so did he as well to save money until the wedding...BOOM! I lost 30 lbs. lol. I totally blame him for the weight gained.  I have no self control when it comes to good smelling foods. And since my parents don't keep crappy foods in the house (i.e. pizza, chips, snickers bars, reese's, high calorie ice creams, oils, butters, candies, etc.), and my parents are also slender people, they got me motivated to get back on track.  What i am afraid of though, it after the wedding, when we move back in together, will I keep these healthy habits???? I'm scared!

Depending on the manufacturer, size 8/9. I'm 24 years old. 5"4.5. Weight: 148.0.

It took me 14 weeks to lose 20 lbs. I ate about 1400-1500 daily and on every weigh in day, which for me was Sunday, I ate whatever I wanted but got right back on it on Monday morning.  I cut sweets completely out for the 1st month b/c I didn't know how to handle sweets but gradually put them back into my diet.  I worked in an office so with sitting down, I went to the gym 5 days a week after work and workout for 1hr and 15 mins - 1 hr and 45 mins at the most 2 hrs.   ALL cardio, running, speed walking, walking with hand weights, walking/jogging with ankle weights, and walking with bar bells too. And, I burned anywhere from 350-600 calories per workout.  No lifting because my weigh was too big, I would've bulked up manly-like.

I'm 5'4.5

Highest weight: 186

SW: 176

CW:150.8

GW:139

I told myself when I get down to 140, I want to start heavy lifting to tone EVERYTHING.

By the way, I was in a size 12, now I am in a size 8 and it's lose, not tight and sloppy looking! I am so excited because I have been in a size 10 for the longest! I am soo happy with my weight lose.

Good luck to you, you can do it if I can!

The way you worded your question sounds funny. Do you want  to lose weight the healthy way or become anorexic for a year or two to get to your weight?  It sounds like your looking to go the fast route.  

I like digital only because that's what I saw to be the cheapest at the time that I bought it. Its starting to frustrate me though because it weighs me differently all the time.  It will always have me weighing about 3-4lbs more than the scales at WW (even though they still take off the two lbs for your clothes.

This past sunday @ WW I weighed in at 153.6. So I'm looking to be in the 140s before long. I'm very excited!

SW:178

GW:138-139

Don't think your crazy, but I do think your worrying for nothing.  Your fine, chill out!
