Fat be GONE!!!

New member
Well here I am again... almost 50lbs overweight and in pain. My back, knees, ankles, etc. hurt. I have PCO and the weight compounds the "woman" problems. I was able to quit smoking (finally) because it was bad for me and I refused to let it control my life. After quitting I turned to food... I have to get a hold of myself just so I can live life.

I hope...nay I know there will be many positive updates to come. :D

:D Love your username! LOl Makes me think of snapping fingers and fat all gone!!! I know you will get good feedback from all of us and wish you much sucess on your life changing journey!!:)
 
Hey! Just checking in on you. When I first came to the forum I was fifty pounds overweight as well. Since then, I've lost a total of 31 pounds. It has definitely not been easy. Actually... it's been quite hard, but it has totally been worth it. I've got 19 more pounds to go and I know in my heart that with the support of each other and everyone else on the forum we can do this. You and I both are very capable.

Here we go.:rolleyes:
 
Thanks Be-Gone!! That is my dream a spray you can use to get rid of those unwated pounds!!! :D

Alright Altered, here we go!!! I saw that we had similar goals and I am at almost the same starting weight!! We got this!

Ok, I had Wendy’s for lunch but I tried to pick better things. I had a plain potato, plain chili and side salad (no dressing). The total was: 670 calories, 14g fat, 16g fiber. So as long as I behave myself for dinner, I am ok. I am all about the fiber. Fiber is my friend. ;)

I really need to start working out while I have time off. I went back to school and my spring semester starts 1/8/07. I still work 30+ hrs a week, so I think I need to commit to exercising early in the morning because when school starts up that will be the only “free” time I have. I think it will help with my insomnia too. I have been having some odd dreams lately. I think it is my subconscious telling me that I need to break out of my shell. That I am ready emotionally to get back out there and try (shudder) dating again. I tell people that I don’t want to be touched, that I am not a “hugger” but to be honest I am. But I have always played the role of the tough chick so I locked the softer side away. Gaining weight has been my way of building a wall around myself. Before when I have started to lose weight, I almost panic and really feel like I have to eat. I think it is because if I lose weight and let myself become approachable, I then become vulnerable.

Whoa that was deep….:D
 
Heyas and welcome and goodluck to ya!! Those were very
great choices from Wendys,lol thats my problem I can't go
anywhere like that and make great choices lol maybe a steak
house I could just maybe.Have a great day,Tammy:)
 
Hey, good to see you're started already (it would be too easy to put it off till Jan 1st, this week!)

Ahh wendys :( I wish we had wendys over here. Then again it would be one more temptation :D well done on picking out good food to eat there.

Hope you're having a good day.
 
Hi Tammy and thank you for the welcome. It looks like you have been making some pretty good choices yourself judging by your progress!!!

LOL! Yup Sprite I thought I would get an early start. My boss is starting her diet 1/3 and I am getting a jump on her!

I think I was a bit lighter than I am right now. I quit allowing pics to be taken of me cuz it would force me to confront my weight gain but no more!!!!
 
Fellow rider! Thats what I'm talking about. One of my goals is to buy a VERY NICE FITTING LEATHER OUTFIT to ride in ...

hee hee hee

Me too!! Some cute chaps would be nice right now I have some rather large leathers, cuz I didn't want the stuff to tight on me to show my bulges. :eek:

But by spring I plan on being all spiffy!!!
 
Thank you Mechelle!!

Ok, this forum is helping already. I had a stressful event at work (already) today and the first thing I thought about is lunch.... But I am not going down that path. I wonder what makes me stress eat?? Was I born with the response or did I learn it along the way? If I think about it, it strikes me odd that I would want to eat to excess when I am stressed... cuz I don't usually enjoy a meal when I am stressed, I scarf it down so quickly I barely taste it. I am making an effort to chew my food better and not take as big of bites. I had blueberry oatmeal this morning which I love!! (2g fat, 6g fiber, 160 cal) smells like muffins.:D
 
Hello and welcome, I also LOVE the title of your diet lol.

I am also a "stress eater" and I love that oatmeal is so healthly and good for you. Have you tried the low sugar oatmeal? The apple cinimmon is especially good!
 
Hi guys!

Stuck to my meal plan today. Just ate dinner and I am still hungry… I guess it hasn’t made it all down. I have a few days off this weekend I think I may try and take a lil’ trip somewhere to detox from family time. If I can find a dog friendly hotel I am there!
