Krismasself....You look great!!! keep smiling.. I know someone asked about Pam...I saw a message from her on another board. She is a little discouraged right now....so big hug for her too!!! I hope everyone had a great weekend...I like Mondays better. I am coming to find that I like the structure of the weekdays, and especially Mondays. It keeps me busy. Today is 'Cow's' birthday, that is my 3 year old. Hooray...now no excuse not to lose weight...after all I have had 3 years right. Actually this is the fourth child and I have 50lbs with each of their names on it. So the first 50 is for Cow. I know it is an awful name, but it has stuck...she used to how out her hand when she wanted something and her uhhhh...uhhhhh sounded like a cow. Usually she is cow bean. For Halloween, of course, she will be a cow. Found costume on eBay 2.99. It is great!! So glasses up(apple juice)....Here's to Cow...Happy Birthday Baby Girl!!! xoxo |

| I haven't been here in a week and I missed so much. It took me like 30 minutes to read the last 3 pages....I wanted to say thank you to united...all of the info was great, and I checked out that video wiht Alan Alda....good stuff....I was laughing reading all the I want to's....They were great, and I could identify with sooooooo many of them, especially Molly. I want to add that I want to buy sexy lingerie and it fit right....I want to be hott with two t's!!! Has anyone heard from humor Pam? I know that she goes on other boards too and have not seen her. Let her know that we miss her!!! Congrats to all of our losers, or shoud I say winners?! And welcome all new people, we are glad to have you!!! or at least I am!! Blessed, liking the name...remember to smile. Everyone should check out the Secret if you have not already. It is a book or a video. It is on utube in like 10 parts...it is way cool. I also had a chance to see TD Jakes Reposition Yourself...Awesome. I don't know about any of you, but my weight is also psychological...and both were really great for motivation. Gotta run...hubby wants to bond, watch a movie...talk to you sooner!! | |||

| Sorry guys, I have been really busy. Congrats to all our loser, and me winners!!! I think it is great that we all have each other to motivate each other. I have not seen Pam either, although I think she is really and cool. Lora, I wish I was under 250 too, ha under 300 would even be cool. We can do it though. We just have to work at it. I am finding out that I am afraid to lose weight, which sounds crazy. I want to lose it, but it has a sort of comfort to it. I do not want my relationships to change with people that I am around, and I know that it will. I am pretty cocky, and dominant, and if I had the confidence too....wow, I would not like me!!! I am nice, and friendly, but I would be unapproachable or seem to be. Plus my husband is already insecure....he would be very jealous. I am going to lose it regardless. I had a huge break through this week. I confronted my mom and dad...I love both, but they have issues, and so does my sister. Neither of them was there growing up, and they are not there now. My sister needs them, and needs to be her parents. I am tired of being the parent to them and her. It is time to grow up!!! It was like a 10 lb brick being lifted off my shoulders. It felt great!!! I have noticed that I have more problems with food on the weekend than I do the week days... Anyone else have this problem? How do you make the weekends work too? | |||

| I get it!!! You are too cool? Is there a deficit number or percentage that you should not go below where your body goes into starvation mode and slows your metabolism? Right now I am between 1200-1300 below where they say I should be for the day. That works out to roughly 3.5 pounds a week...is this correct? Will my body start saying that I need more food than you are providing, and slow my metobolism? | |||

| My calorie number sounds very high too, and I have trouble eating 2500 calories with nutritous food. I can't imagine the 3000 it suggests for me, or the 4500 for you. Is there someone who can shed some light on this for us? | |||

| Weight Loss | Does anyone have trouble actually eating enough calories | Sep 27 2007 19:57 (UTC) |

| I am with you. The only way for me to eat the amount of calories that they say I should eat is to eat junk, or fatty food, or a lot mor food. I guess I used to do it, but that was the food that was bad for me. I like healthy foods, and am more satisfied by them. I admit that Apple pie, or muffins are great, and done in moderation will be okay. But I am like 400 calories under where they want me,, which is a muffin or a piece of pie. I will stick to being under. | |||

| Hi everyone, room for one more person. I am 5'8" and 406lbs. I am making to day the first day of a new beginning. I hate to work out, and am getting to a point wher if I don't then mobility will become limited. I have to, and want to be healthy. My ultimate goal is 175-190. Immediately though I am focused on the first 60lbs. I want to be more aggressive than what is being suggested, any advice out there would be appreciated. I am with a company that would like to utilize me and my skills, however my health is a factor. They do not mind my weight, only my appearance of professionalism. I am noticing my limitations, and want to excel further. They siad they are there for me, whatever I need. There is a convention in California that I would like to be part of. It means being on my feet for about 10-12 hours, which I can not do right now. So, I have until Feb. to lose enough weight to be able to stand for a long period. I think that comes to about 50-75 lbs. I still have alot of muscle, which helps, but I need to be healthy no matter what. I also have 4 kids, that I want to enjoy 13, 11, 9, and 3 in Oct. I can't do what I have done, or I will not exist to see them graduate, go to college, or get married and have their own children. I need people to hold me accountable! Will you guys help me? | |||

| Mine would have been when I was pregnant and the doctor was trying to hear the baby's heartbeat. He was having difficulty due to my weight, and she was still quite little, around 20 weeks. He said that he needed to get the BGD to hear the Heartbeat. BGD stands for Big Girl Doppler. He also told me that I was larger than life. I mind you that he is a OB for obese patients, and treats high risk pregnant moms all the time. | |||
Lora thanks for the encouragement, I needed it....and a big hug to you!!!
