As of Friday, july 7th this club will be unstickied. There are too many clubs to be stickied and we, as moderators, feel that all clubs should be brought to the top of the page in the traditional manner - posting by its "members". This not only reduces the clutter but puts all clubs on equal footing since no one club is more important than another. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

Let's try to make it windier then! Is it just that the numbers are stuck, or is it more than that depressing you? I know what it's like to be stuck, but I also know that when it happens I've gotten used to what I was doing, or sometimes I'm just not making as much of an effort. It is a FIGHT, and a big one, to get this weight off, and you have to change what you're trying all the time. Think of it as an action movie where the hero (that's you) is fighting a big mean robot (that's the excess body fat) that constantly learns what you're doing to defeat it and adapts accordingly so it can survive. You have to surprise your body every 4-6 weeks and change directions completely in order to continue to progress. Try something you're terrible at and get good at it. Try a sport you've never played. What kind of exercise are you doing right now? What's your calorie level? The problem with severe calorie restriction for weight loss is that it's temporary. Your body adapts, and then if you start eating more, you'll gain (unless you increase intake very slowly while also increasing exercise). Let's take a look at this and try to fix it. You just have to be willing to try, and willing to honestly share with us, because we can't fix it if we don't know about it.
 
Acne

Okay, this is a gross question, but does losing weight make acne worse?

I have PCOS, and am prone to acne anyway. Not fun when you are in your 30's and should be past that. But since I started losing weight, it seems to be WAY worse. I was wondering, have any of you experienced this? Do you think it might be because as the fat is flushed out of my system, some of the bad stuff that was stored in there is coming out in the form of pimples? I could go do some research, but I figured I would just post here first. :)
 
You know, it can change your hormonal balance, and that could change your skin, so it's possible. Try a new (gentler) cleansing regimin. Do you have a dermatologist? They frequently have samples of really good (and expensive) cleansers & moisturizers. Samples are generally free, so get them when you can!
 
Hey everyone! Just wanted to check in to see how everyone is doing on their way to onderland. :D I also wanted to see if someone else wanted to take over this thread? I know that one of you could do a much better job of firing up this thread than me. ;) Let me know. :D
 
I would take over the thread if we could maybe close this one and start a new one. I think 25+ pages is a bit daunting for potential new members to take on. Just a thought.

I like the math aspect of this thread, and would be pretty good at encouraging people to keep working toward the 100's.

Oh, and maybe something like "Aiming for the 100's" would be a little less intimidating for people who have more to lose to actually get to the 100's. Maybe? :)
 
I wouldn't mind closing out this one and starting up a new one if the others who post in here wouldn't mind. What do you think about "heading for onederland?" hehehehehe :p

TM, do you have any ideas on what you want the intro post to say?
 
Hey, HH, I changed my mind about taking over running this thread. You probably already read about my husband's job loss. I just don't know how predictable I'll be until things get back in order around here. :eek:
