POW! They are now inexpensive and make you lose weight. Unfortunately, you eat so many of them now that you have developed a sever allergy to them.

I wish . . . I was more flexible.

Lizards and Frogs!

POOF-y! The cats no longer shed. But, the fur has to come off somehow. The cats now have hairballs all over your house, which is even worse!

I wish . . . I could sing!

I was split: 1/2 the 'geek' and 1/2 the 'nice-one'. From the outside, I guess the group looked kinda wimpy, but if you were a part of it you would have realized how raunchy and how completely crazy we were. And I loved it!

You are paid to post here. In fact, you were paid so well, you quit your old job and live solely off of this. However, you soon complete your weight goals, and find no reason to post here anymore. You eventually begin avoiding the site (like so many who avoid their work), and you are fired and left with no salary. You are forced to move out and live on the street.

I wish . . . I had a boyfriend.

It is five o'clock, but in a different country where you don't know the language, you have none of the local currency, and you have nowhere to stay.

I wish . . . I wasn't sick right now.

KABLOOIE! You no longer have a phobia of frogs and lizards. In fact, you love them so much, you have decided to take in every helpless frog and lizard you come across. Your house is filled with them (and beginning to smell). Now, no one ever comes to your house, and you are left alone.

I wish . . . it wasn't so hard to buy clothes that fit!

Definitely, I am a binger. Sunday, my older sis came over, and for some reason I couldn't stop eating. I knew what was happening, but I couldn't stop myself. And yesterday, I did the same thing, after I spent a sleepless night promising to myself I wouldn't do that again. Binging is why I have to keep losing the same pounds, for some reason I lose a couple, and then I'll binge for a couple days and go right back up.

So today, I'm trying very hard not to binge, and I keep my water bottle with me so I'll keep drinking, but I'm going to have to do what I would used to do to keep myself from eating: knitting.

That probably sound stupid, but it works. My family is a big t.v. watcher, so of course I am also, and it's usually after dinner that it comes on and I start wanting food. So, before, whenever I would be working on something, I would knit in front of the t.v., and I would be so absorbed in the knitting that I would lose any cravings. So, if anyone has a hobby like that, knitting, crocheting, something small that you can do sitting down, try and do that whenever you get a craving.

In AZ they do put your weight on, so I lied and put 145, and my mom looked and she gave me 'the look' but there was no way I was going to put my real weight (I was up at 160). It would be nice to get to 145.

My sister has had the same weight on her's since she got it, 10 years ago. Her's says 119, but she weighs closer to me now.

I think it's natural for most people to lie on their license. I always think that someone's going to look at the weight there.

Has this been going on longer than just a couple of days? If this keeps happening, along with a couple other symptoms, you may want to go to the doctor, and perhaps get your thyroid tested. That would make you feel exhausted all the time.

My attitude (I always end up being so bitchy or so shy around people I've met).

My looks (definitely not pretty enough to get a guy looking).

My hair (not my fault, the lady cut it short for some reason).

Oh, can I join? I think that would be good for me. I'm 17, 5'6", and have plateaued at 150.6 (28% body fat, I used to be all muscle). I just started doing pilates every morning, along with a 30-40 minute walk, at work I stand the whole time (I'm a cashier). I think My problem right now is eating for me, so I'm gonna have to work on that.

So,

WEEK 1: 150.6

I'll try to continue this thread for anyone who wants it.

Thanks everyone. I knew that if you went into starvation your body would hold onto the weight, but I wasn't sure if 1000-1200 would count as starvation, and if going to 1500 would get me out of that. Thank you.
