Sorry don't think Silverman is funny.....more like obnoxious and too in your face. The only time I felt sorry for Britney Spears was when Ms. Silverman was pickin' on her. Blaaahhh |

Listen to your H, he sounds like a TERRRIFIC guy, what a blessings!:), losing weight and changing your lifestyle is HARD work! Doesn't sound like your "family" is all that supportive, so why bother with them? Especially right now when you are sorta beat down? Why do you HAVE to spend Thanksgiving with them? Maybe this year you can just stay home with your wonderful, supportive H and have some friends over........ When I get the whole Dr. Jekyl/Mr. Hyde personality thing going on I'll just embrace my craziness for a couple of days and then force myself to think and act on something outside of myself. Whether it be making all the appointments for my kids and pets that I've been putting off or helping out with some project going on with Scouts or church. In other words stop focusing on my frustrations with weight loss and involve myself in other people. Hope this helps HUGS! |

| The Lounge | Nuclear Power: For/Against? | Oct 14 2008 23:26 (UTC) |

Definitely FOR! DH has run nuclear reactors on the carriers for years. The military knows how to operate them correctly. France has been powered by nuclear plants for years with no problems. Chernobyl happened because they were experimenting at a range that was just well stupid! Those who have worked with this type of energy for decades believe it is by far the most effective type of energy.

| I'd rather be fat then french. :) Yes, I do think I'm "bad" when I over indulge and yes it's "bad" to be fat. There's a struggle to it and I'm struggling to be "good". Some day I'm going to just eat what my body needs to live and no more but right now I'm working on the process of getting healthy. Enjoyed your post. |

| This strategy doesn't work well with me when ever I try and deny myself something I'm used to eating or drinking....I start to become obsessive about NOT EATING THE "FORBIDDEN FRUIT." Instead of having 2 beers I'll have a glass of red wine. Instead of not having any cake I'll cut a piece in half. IT seems to work at least for me.:) Good luck! |

| Bingo! Being completely honest with me and seeing what sort of eating habits I have, has been a big part of the success with changing my lifestyle. It's all there in BLACK AND WHITE! It takes dedication and truthfulness but journaling is been a big part of my losing weight. Another thing that has been helpful is when others comment with their suggestions. They can give great idea's and support. |

| FatDoc brought up a bunch of awesome points. I'm tipping my hat to you;) HANNO Some of us Americans don't WANT Goverment in any part of our lives except for protection. I'm fat, obese, overweight whatever ya want to call it.... It's not from lack of sidewalks or bike paths...BUT I'm taking responsiblity for what I put in my mouth and how much I move my body. The cool thing about this is now that I've started taken back my health I'm losing weight and feeling alot better about my life! |

| Weight Loss | Loose/comfortable fit clothing and dieting | Nov 30 2006 14:20 (UTC) |

| Maybe most female types do??? Interesting question. I'm a female( last time I checked) and when ever I was fat or thin I wore loose fitting clothes. Mostly for comfort and modestys sake I'm big hipped and big chested........... fat or thin. I do know that when I am fatter I don't look as nice no matter what kind of clothing I'm wearing;( Yes I do notice when I'm getting heavier. The mirror groans at me and my feet start to hurt! As soon as I get rid of the excess weight I AM GETTING RID OF ALL MY HUGE CLOTHES! That will be an incentive to keep the weight off and make more room in the closet:) |

| Motivation | What are your healthy habits? | Nov 29 2006 18:12 (UTC) |
28 |
| Great habits and I like the "small" ones that will add up to be HUGE ones over time. Helenc I am thinking that being this much over weight WILL be the end of my world or at least shorten my life span. :( It's gotten to that point. One habit I've picked up (kinda silly) but every week since I've started my weight loss journey, I go up and down our stairs as fast as I can. Each week I'm adding one more flight. Kids think its funny to chase mom and I'm noticeing my thighs are firmer:) |

| As long as I stay within my calories there isn't any "guilt" associated with eating. Do you feel guilty when only eating a cookie and not the whole bag? |

| THat is so hilarious! I must be both ANGRY and DEPRESSED! hehehehe I'm fat because I was eating all the time and not exercising enough. Not too hard to figure out. Last time I watched anything on T.V. about losing weight it was mostly about people getting gastric bypass surgeries. Blahh |

| Foods | Thanksgiving food... | Nov 25 2006 18:50 (UTC) |
22 |
| I think the main difference in taste is was it made from scratch or out of a can, jar, or just pre-packaged. My veggie neighbor made cranberry sauce (I NEVER liked cranberries before) it was awesome. I love Turkey, so Thanksgiving is definately a real test for me! I do wish I didn't love all the traditional foods that go along with the holiday. Would have made things alot easier:) |

| Weight Loss | stretch marks and cellulite | Nov 25 2006 14:50 (UTC) |
16 |
| I feel really bad for you if you are "destroyed" by stretch marks. They are just something that happens and shows we are human. Try to focus on something else. I don't know of anything that helps prevent them or hide them. I have them on my stomach and breasts, my husband likes to rub them and calls them my war scars. Doesn't bother him in the least. Reminds us of when my body changed so much during our pregnancies. |
