OK so the first time I calculated my BMR I got like 5000 how I did this I have no clue!! I was happy with that lol..But my actual is 1895. Thats way cool. Never looked at it that way lol. I dont want to loose my muscle mass. Im proud of mine!! Just the fat needs to go away hehehehe..Thanx Coachdee. You brought insite to what I was missing here. One thing I realized is the little calorie loss things on excercise machines they aint accurate. Keep this in mind people. They give you a rough estimate.

Also I know most of you know this, but I didnt when I first started..Weights are awesome to achieve that lean muscle we all want...They wont bulk ya up to a body builder, unless of course you use the high weights and low reps...FYI

As for vautouca..Gurl im always lost lol...But this is a way to learn and be healthy :)

wow heated drama here lol..I wanted to put my two cents in..I think its alot of Dr's faults alot of people ahve eating disorders!! Mine told me I need to be down to 130-145..Ya umm not for me. I have alot and i mean alot of muscle mass. My legs are so tined..Its the rest of my body uggghhh.I mean ya im over weight, I carry most my weight in my tummy. When I was skinny, ok very well toned and healthy I still had a tummy. from C sections. This will never ever go away unless i have a tummy tuck. So thats what I will do as soon as I loose all thsi extra weight from my last and final baby. But when a few drs told me I was obese because of the height weight charts I wanted to slap the crap out of em! I am a size ten and 5 7, ya a lil chubby, im workin on it..But I honestly think its because of this and the fake BMI charts. You cant get your accurate BMI form your height weight, or a scale. Lazers are a mazing for this and there is a certain time to get the accurate results. Also its alot on our society. I mean have ya looked at some of these "oh so beutiful" stars..YUCK they make me sick..Britney Murphy is one of them. She looked good in clueless now she looks sick!! OK thats my opinion...
Weight Loss Has anyone tried Phentramine; an OTC diet pill? Jun 03 2006

Wow I got replies yah me lol. Well im almost oput of it. Honestly I dont think its the right stuff. I live in Germany so im limited on who can ship what. I got some from India.Its doing absoulutely nothing. No extra energy ect..But I am going to try Zetacap. You know the gastric in a bottle thing. It doesnt raise your heart rate like Phentramine.Just fills your tummy. My inlaws are on that. My main thing is eating when im bored. Like now, my husband brought home Oreos the butt!!But when ya put in your calorie intake it makes you change your mind. Yes im trying to be skinny..I am healthy, could be alot more. Im more active now. I mean yes im cheating..But darn it so are the people getting gastric right? I know a few people who have gotten it done and thye eat like they did before just less. So they are unhealthy to. I honestly wish I could have bipass so then I could get skinny. But I know its not for me,im under the weight limit, which is a good thing..

But on a second note I understand the health risks ass with all of these. I should be the one saying nono meds..My mom had a stroke off dexitrim when she was 22. She wanted to loose five pounds...

I used to tape myself every week and keep a log.I need to start doing that again :) When I first started working out at the gym while my husband was deployed, I didnt even weigh or tape myslef. Then one day I was like holy crap I have toned and lost weight. Then I weighed myself and was amazed. I went from a size 18 to a size 9 in about three months..But taping I think is the best way to see results..Im about to throw my darn scale out the window!!!

Honestly I would blame most eating disorders on the DRs. They seem to think that these charts are for everyone. They dont actually look at your body structure. Sorry im kinda in a DR hate mode lol...But yes I would think that over eating ect is a psychological eating disorder...
