Pretty Much Everything we've eaten...
August 15, 2009 at 10:29 pm

Phase 1:
Breakfast-
Oatmeal- Cook until about 2 minutes before its done. I would put in fresh sliced peaches. Cook them in the oatmeal for a minute or two and then add some cinnamon if you like. We actually think it tastes a lot better than with sugar. Some other ideas would be bananas, blueberries, strawberries, etc. It's your breakfast, be creative!
Eggs- Make your life easier and get Egg Beaters. I just get the store brand. I would chop up a little bit of onion and bell pepper and put in there. Just like the oatmeal, you can put anything you like in this. Try it with some salsa on the side for an extra kick.

Snack- Usually fruit-bananas really help with keeping full

Lunch- I found this recipe online for vegetarian chili- http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/The-Bes...ld/Detail.aspx
I made this recipe three times so far! Its REALLY spicy so just be aware of how much jalepeno and chili powder you are using. Other than that its super filling and delicious. Since it has vegetarian burger crumbles, it totally feels like you're eating meat but its so much better for you!
Salad- Of course this won't be as filling as the chili but I like to mix it up. Put some beans, carrots, anything you like to make it your own. I like to eat my salad with an apple so I get some extra fiber.
Another idea is making a vegetable or some kind of bean soup.

Snack- Usually some type of fruit again. If I was still hungry I would eat a yogurt. Strawberry banana is my favorite! Another idea is hard boiling some eggs and just eating the whites. Good for protein! Pears are great as well. Some days you might feel just insatiable so you might think about drinking some herbal tea. I recommend if you are at the point of starvation (you shouldn't be!) try to focus on why this diet is helping you. There were times that I would think about all the junk I would eat at the current moment and realize that I would easily pass up fruits and veggies. Try to learn to enjoy different things.

Dinner-We had sweet potatoes and brown rice every night. We would pair it with either broccoli, corn on the cob, or asparagus. He's a little vague in the book about butter. We used what we needed for the vegetables and rice but didn't overdo it. I prefer to use some type of margarine because its less calories but its up to you. Don't forget to salt and pepper the rice. It really helps! Dinner was also when we would drink the milk allowance.

If you must eat out-go to Panera Bread. They have a vegetarian black bean soup that is very satisfying and good for you! We would pair it up with a salad-ask for no croutons or cheese and switch the baguette for an apple. We were FULL after eating this!

Snack- Sometimes we would be full enough from dinner so we wouldn't eat more than some fruit salad. I read in the FAQs that we could have air popped popcorn so we would eat that while watching a movie or something. We allowed ourselves to go get frozen yogurt when we went out on Saturday night. Delicious!

Just remember its SOOO important to drink a ton of water and get a LOT of rest. If you stay up too late, you might start thinking about bad things to eat so just dream about them. Haha, I had dreams about Domino's pizza, pasta, meat. It was weird because I would wake up thinking I cheated terribly but I never ate any of it!

Exercise- DO IT! Really, just do it! We've started switching up Wii Fit, jogging, fitness tapes, etc. Find what you like and get to sweating!

PHASE 2:
YAY MEAT! Haha...

Breakfast-
Cereal- Kashi Go Lean Crunch is a favorite of ours. It has more calories than most cereals, but there's a lot of fiber so you will stay fuller for longer.
Eggs- Use the Egg Beaters but put in 1 whole egg and scramble it up with whatever you like. I also add a little bit of cheese-YUM!
Oatmeal- Always a good option. I did it the same way with peaches and no sugar but add some sugar if you like.

Snack- Fruit again, usually a banana. I'm such a creature of habit.

Lunch- Salads are your friend! Try grilled chicken, tuna, or salmon in some greens with a healthy vinaigrette. A really good salad from McDonald's is their southwest salad, just pick out the Frito looking things. I also pick out some of the cheese to save me some calories and so I can have more with my eggs! Once again, its really spicy but we enjoy it if we have to eat on the go.
You could also make some brown rice with a meat of your choice and veggies
We've been eating that chili as well-its so good! Even better in phase 2 because of the cheese factor.

Snack- Same as phase 1, I tried putting a tablespoon of honey in my tea the other day- WOW! It was so nice and soothing

Dinner- I've been getting very creative with dinners. I try to take my favorite things and mixing it up so we feel like we're eating like kings.

"Chipotle" burrito bowls-I make Mexican brown rice- use this recipe, its really easy and I just half it since its just the two of us
http://www.medicinenet.com/script/ma...ticlekey=59780
Shred up some cooked chicken and mix it with a can of black beans and a taco seasoning packet with the right amount of water
Heat up a can of refried beans- whatever kind you like
Assembling- Put the brown rice on the bottom, then the beans, then the chicken. I then top it with cheese, shredded lettuce, salsa, and some sour cream. My husband went nuts when we ate this. Actually I did too because it was so delicious and super easy! Plus we only had one bowl and we were stuffed! Yay for leftovers!

"Burger" and "Fries"- We went to Costco and got some turkey patties. I cooked them on the George Foreman grill with salt and pepper for 3 minutes on each side. Top with tomato, cheese, and ketchup and wrap with lettuce.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Take 2 sweet potatoes and cut them up to the size of french fries. Coat them with olive oil and put them on a foil lined baking sheet. Don't forget the salt and pepper. I like fresh cracked. Bake for 15 minutes then turn them over and bake for another 10 minutes. We dip them in low fat dressing.
I'm telling you, you will never miss the bread or white potatoes. It beats going out and spending a bunch of money too!

I also make chicken or salmon with brown rice and veggies.

Another idea if you must go out- We really enjoy the steak and shrimp from Outback Steakhouse. Just make sure to ask for a sweet potato with nothing on it and put your own butter on it! You wouldn't believe how much butter and brown sugar they put on it! I actually had mine plain because I just love sweet potatoes so much. We would pair it up with an approved salad and tell the waitress NO bread! You won't want it anyway because the meal is so filling. We brought back some steak to have steak and eggs tomorrow- YUM!

Phase 3- We're not here yet but we'll soon be there. I will post more of my ideas and recipes I find.

I hope this has been helpful. PLEASE do not hesitate to ask for help. I love it!

I've noticed myself in the kitchen a lot more than normal. Not only are we saving money, our waistlines are getting happier because of it. The cooking does take a little more effort but think about how healthy we are all eating. Very! Keep on smashing! :carrot:

I Can't Believe It
August 15, 2009 at 10:17 pm

I am so happy, I just started MRC a month ago and I did WI and I am down 27 pounds. I keep waiting for something bad to happen to make me think that this is not going to work. I know I do not want the 27 pounds back!! :carrot::carrot:;)

Not So Newbie Coming Out of Hiding
August 15, 2009 at 9:51 pm

Hey everybody! I joined a couple of years ago but fell off and now I'm back on. The community here is not only encouraging but people are always willing to share what they know. This is the kind of support I have been missing.

I'm glad to be back!:carrot:

EZ's "GO BROKE" CHALLENGE
August 15, 2009 at 8:31 pm

I mailed out a couple of checks today to Paralyzed Veterans of America and World Vision. I had a stack of mail asking for donations. I was unable to donate to all of them today. I debated on a couple of them and got to thinking of how much need there is in the world today.

Which gave me, I feel, a great idea for us here at 3FC....

What about a CHALLENGE where we give for our losses :)

I was thinking, at first, a dollar a pound to your favorite charity. It could be after goal or every week....month.

Then I thought of "time" given for each loss....volunteer work at the local school, hospital or library....the list is endless.

Or maybe a can of soup to the "families in need" pantry of your church.

I am not sure what I want to "challenge" myself with at the moment....but I will come up with something....

How about you?

The needs are endless....can you dump a few pounds to help someone out?....of course you can!

I challenge all of you to help me keep this thread going forever....:)

What Bra Size?
August 15, 2009 at 7:49 pm

So I'm in desperate need of a new bra. I think I'm between sizes but can't wait any longer as I've had to throw out my last white bra as the underwire was poking through. The size I was wearing is a 36DD but these are now on the tightest hooks and a little loose so I figured I needed to go down a band size to 34. However the current cup size seemed to fit well and the advice is to go up a cup size if going down a band size. So today I go out and purchase a 34E. I'm not one for changing rooms so I get the bra home, try it on to find out its too big, both in the band and a little in the cup. So where do I go from here. The range I bought does not do 32s in the larger cups sizes and the 32s only go up to a D cup.

My actual measurements are 31" underbust and 38.5" around my bust.

I know I'm going to have to try some on now but very confused where to start. Any advice?

who is weight loss surgery for?
August 15, 2009 at 7:33 pm

i doubt i am a candidate, and don't think it'd be a viable option for me anyway, but just out of gross curiosity, can anyone get it? i am 5'7 or 5'8 and 180lb. my BMI is around 28.5. are there certain requirements regarding height and weight or body fat percentage?

Hello everyone
August 15, 2009 at 7:21 pm

Junked All My Diet Books!!!
August 15, 2009 at 7:14 pm

Today I did something I thought I'd never do. I gathered all of my diet books, put them in kitchen bags, and drove them down to my local library to donate them. I didn't realize how much I've been hoarding those books until I started hauling the bags in my car - 5 trash bags full!

Most of the books were bought within the last 2 years, which tells you what I've been going through with "diet hopping" in the last few years. High carb/low fat, low carb/high fat, raw food diet, Clean Eating Diet, Eat To Live diet, McDougall diet, Schwartzbein Principle diet... my head is spinning!!! Did I really get that obsessed with diets???

I think I've had some breakthrough of sorts that began a week ago. I went through 4 weeks of training for a new job plus doing full-time work, very high stress. I was already planning at that point to do a 14 week challenge just eating a raw vegan diet (all raw fruits and veggies, nuts and seeds, avocados). I thought having a big online support group would finally bring me success in taming my binge eating and help me lose these 35 pounds I gained in the last 2 years. The combination of the end of the 4 week training (which I passed) and the upcoming "diet" launched me into a 4 day planned binge. I was miserable the whole time but I just couldn't seem to stop myself.

On Monday, I started the raw diet and did fine for 4 days and then something just clicked. I dug into my closet and pulled out two cookbooks of vegan meals for one person. Looking at the cookbook, I thought, "these recipes sound really good and easy and balanced - and they're not a DIET, but NORMAL food (i.e., protein, grains, etc)."

So I'm now going to try an approach that terrifies me but that I've never done - just making simple meals, balanced meals, not thinking about calories or foods or nutrients. I'm not going to limit anything (except animal products which aren't a limitation to me, since they don't tempt me) and I'm not going to weigh myself or think about weight. I know that will come if I stop thinking in terms of "diet" and start thinking in terms of "healthy eating habits".

letting friends go
August 15, 2009 at 7:02 pm

When is it time to let friends go? I reconnected with a friend from high school a few years ago. She is not the person I remember (i.e., fun, kooky, accepting). Since meeting up with her again, we've gotten together a couple of times a year--generally around the holidays and to go to a movie and dinner. I've been disturbed by some of her comments, which when taken one way could seem pretty bigoted (e.g., she once made a comment about her boss that could either have been her blowing off steam at her boss or evidence of prejudice; I really couldn't tell).

Her comments about my life can sometimes be judgmental, although she might mean them to be supportive. For example, the last time we got together, I was telling her about my plans for a career change; she interrupted me to tell me that I was going to the wrong people for advice. When I was finished, she sat up straight and crossed her arms and made the pronouncement that, well, it seemed like I had a good plan in place, but that changing careers is scary (something I had never mentioned, by the way; I'm far more excited than scared about switching careers). It was weird.

Now she has a Facebook update that says that she got a catcall when she was out riding her bike and of course it was from some fat slob. I just cringed when I read it.

My gut tells me that she's an intolerant, closeminded person who I shouldn't spend time with, but my head tells me that (1) she is the only person from high school that I have any contact with at all and (2) *I* tend to be intolerant of people who don't share my social/political views. (I've been trying to work on that, but it's hard.)

Has anybody out there been in this situation? When do you decide to say when with old friends?

Virgin Coconut Oil
August 15, 2009 at 6:44 pm

I recently bought some of this at my local health food store to make some Indian food, but decided to do some research on it. I found that it's really healthy and an excellent alternative to products such as Crisco and lard. I'm going to make biscuits and pie pastry with it to see how it'll turn out.

Newbie saying hi
August 15, 2009 at 6:41 pm

Hi all I just wanted to say hello and how I don't feel like I am the only one having to struggle being a 300, when I first started I was three hundred plus well alright 310 but I just hit my goal of ten pounds today. I am so happy happy.

I feel it's a realistic goal I'm taking it one day one pound at a time. Good luck to all of you.

Low Cal shake ideas anyone??
August 15, 2009 at 6:34 pm

I'm embarrassed to admit that I can't seem to kick my nightly (almost) banana shake addiction. Any ideas for a healthier option?

I hit my mini Goal!
August 15, 2009 at 6:29 pm

I am so happy I hit my mini goal of loosing ten pounds, I know it's small but it's actually big thing. Thanks for making me feel welcome and I love love love this website

oh, hello there! i'm new.
August 15, 2009 at 4:39 pm

Hey everyone, i'm new here and i've been having a bit of a rough time losing weight (read as: i can't get motivated to do so). I'm 19 and starting my second year of college the day after tomorrow. I started being overweight when I was about 11, and weighed my most during my 11th grade year (186 lbs). Then I lost about 20 lbs. my senior year through dieting, then lost 10 more my first week of college due to me not eating. Then, I experienced the freshman 15, and gained even more weight this summer due to an ongoing stressful personal life.

Anyway, I'd really like to get down to about 135-140 lbs, as I'm tired of feeling sluggish.

Well, hi then. :D

Walden Farms products
August 15, 2009 at 4:23 pm

:?:Has anyone been using the Walden Farms products? (WF) I have used the salad dressings in the past on Atkins. I was told by the counselor that it was ok to use the products. I see that they are available in Publix stores in FL... I also found that they make more than just salad dressings... I wanted to by the ketchup, it also has zero fat, calories & carbs, but it does have 170mg of sodium per Tbs. I was hoping that could be an alternative to the tomato supplements. Anyone have anythoughts?

Also, they make BBQ sauce, and chocolate sauce that I can't believe is also zero everything too... that could be dangerous.



Thanks!

Grocery Staples
August 15, 2009 at 4:09 pm

I am going to do the grocery shopping for the next two weeks and have decided that I need to make a list and stick to it when I'm at the store. I have never been good at picking "healthy" foods, so I thought I would ask for a little help from you all. What are some of the healthy items you wouldn't be able to go without?

Water weight?
August 15, 2009 at 3:34 pm

Is it possible to put on alot of water weight? I gained about 17 LBS but still wear the same size I did when I was 207 and I'm 224.6 now? Some of it should be fat. I haven't been working out much so maybe I lost some muscle too.

Truth about six pack abs
August 15, 2009 at 3:11 pm

I saw this and with all the "everyone is doing everything wrong" hype. I wonder if anyone has tried this and if there is any truth to it.

Pull me back in kids!!!
August 15, 2009 at 2:55 pm

I think I have, at best, not lost any weight this week and I'm pretty sure I've put on a pound or two.

It's just been a crazy week. I do not want to make excuses but I do want to share what I've learned and ask for some advice along the way.

Bad choice #1: Youngest son wanted to eat out. I divided my meal in half and took the other half home. I was thinking one of my other sons would enjoy it later that evening but he didn't come home that night. So.....as I sat there watching TV (that room is open to the kitchen) I could hearing it calling me so I reheated it and ate it. Which brings me to....

Bad choice #2: In the evening I just need to stay out of that room! It seems everytime I'm there watching tv I ended up snacking! Since I have a tv in my room upstairs I have decided that is where I need to spend my evenings! It's amazing to me how just the proximity to the fridge increases my hunger?!?!

Bad Choice #3: Stress overeating. Scenario: I spent a couple of days with a friends DH who is dying of brain cancer. He is still at home and on many days does well but this week he had wandered outside and left the barn doors and gates open. She doesn't want him left alone (while she is at work) so I volunteered to stay with him on the two weekdays she was working. She has found someone who can start coming in next week so I won't be doing that again but on one of the days I was there she called to check in and was very angry at her DH because he had asked me to walk the dogs--no biggie to me, I like her dogs. Anyway, he was cranky for the rest of the day and when she got home we talked and it was all good. She was just stressing because she was having a tough day at work and it spilled over into their conversation. I spend time telling you this lenghty story because I can see so clearly how others peoples stress spills over into other peoples lives. There is NO getting around that! However, I could use some coping skills in this area and I'm very open to suggestions on that one. I can't begin to tell you how I overate that evening!

This last one is not really a 'bad choice" but I could use some advice because this is going to come up all the time. I had a meeting at my house last night for our neighborhood watch. One of my sweet neighbors offered to make a goodie for our mtg. Great, one less thing I have to do. I had no idea she would bring 3 full pans of goodies. And because there was sooooo much left over she wanted me to keep it for my boys. Well, they're not here as much since college has started, one just left, one lives on his own. And frankly, none of them are big sweet eaters anyway. So we all feel pressured to 'take something' home even though it's pretty apparent most of us don't want to. I immediately threw away what small amount I had taken. I don't feel bad about that, although I certainly would never want her to know. I did have one very small lemon square at the meeting and many glasses of water. She's a good cook!

Anyway, with the holidays coming up and my slips this week I'm starting to hear that conversation in my head that says I can't do this. It's just a bit of a whisper at this point but I sure could use some words of wisdom to nip this in the bud. I will say, strangely enough, I am trying to learn what works, I am trying to identify my triggers and come up with coping skills. I am NOT going to beat myself up over a bad week--no name calling. With all the activity this week I only missed one work out but I kind of knew that was coming so I doubled my treadmill walked one evening and I'll probably workout a little extra this weekend.

I don't want to hit that wall where I'm this close to quiting. Is that possible or is that just part of this journey? I guess I'm asking for advice to help me NOT go there. Am I in time???:dizzy: Or have I already gone there???:dizzy:

Thanks guys for listening! ;)

30 Somethings Weekend chat 8/15 - 8/16
August 15, 2009 at 2:32 pm

I didn't see a daily thread yet - so here it is. ;)

I am having a nice start to my weekend. DH got up with the kids and I took the baby into bed with me at 7. Baby ate, and we both fell back asleep until almost 9 when the aroma of coffee and pancakes wafted into my bedroom. Yum!

I took my measurements today and have lost another inch off of hips and waist in the last month. I weighed today to and see no change in 10 days. :( Oh well, I may have been a bit heavy today because I cashed in some flex points last night and had an extra piece of home made lasagna with home made sauce (tomatoes from the garden). It was just SO good. Well worth it!

DH went off to work and kiddos and I went to Wal-Mart. The big kids spent some of their money on a special outfit and the little kids took turns screaming. I didn't get everything on the list, but maybe I can go out alone for some things tomorrow - what a treat! :D

Here's a hug :hug: for all of you who continue to be here to support me. I would've quit weeks ago if I didn't have this forum to come to!

Happy Weekend!
Andrea

progress
August 15, 2009 at 1:33 pm

I've been seriously losing weight again since July. I need some encouragement because when I took the pic I didn't see the differences that I *feel*

Can you tell?

I'm so exasperated!
August 15, 2009 at 1:01 pm

For several reasons I really feel I have no room to complain, but the past couple of weeks have been so hectic and draining.

My boyfriend and I drove out of state a few weekends ago to attend a convention. I was so not used to being on my feet, and about had an anxiety attack before anything had even begun since we had to park over a mile away from the thing and walk there in the heat. There were no real chances to sit down once we were inside, no good food choices to make, and in the back of my mind I knew we'd have to walk all the way back to the car in that blasted heat. Ugh! I still had a good time, but was exhausted for a few days with very sore feet and ankles as I tried to get back on track with my eating plan.

I think I've done relatively good with that actually. I had a few slip-ups, but feel I've been eating so much better overall than I used to. My food choices are much better overall and I haven't binged in ages.

Then I got called into babysitting for a few weeks. Which means spending ten hours a day in someone else's house that is over an hour away from home, full of unhealthy "kid-friendly" snacks and nothing to do but be on the computer, watch TV, and play video games (although on most days I've managed to get the kids out for a walk in the early mornings, before the desert heat gets too bad).

I've been really good about bringing my own food and not touching the existing junk, but there were a handful of times I woke up too late to fix my lunch for the day (now granted, I could have taken care of that the night before, but felt too tired) and we ended up ordering pizza. I honestly wasn't happy about that . . . it's just been really difficult for me to adjust being gone for 12 hours a day, and once I'm there it really, really drags on. They keep the temperature in the 80's inside, and the kids have no "real" toys nor do they even seem interested in them. I did get us playing Twister but they got bored less than five minutes into it.

So I went from losing about 7 pounds in one week to staying at the same weight for about a week and a half. I've been dying to just drop one pound so I'll have a change to record for the jingle challenge.

Part of me wants to give up, but I won't. I'm continuing with all my veggies and fruit. I'm still not drinking any soda nor have I been having any ice cream, candy, chips, etc. But I'm frustrated and need to vent; I just want to get this weight off! I still have a week left of babysitting, and I'm hoping I can adapt a little better this week and look into the Y membership I've been wanting once I have the free time again (I used to be a swimmer and would love to get back into laps).

And I feel I have no room to complain because at least I haven't gained anything! And while I still have quite a ways to go, I've lost a lot of weight these past few years and none of it has crept back up on me. I'm thankful for that. I guess I just can't wait for things to go back to "normal."

my weight loss, a journey to finding me
August 15, 2009 at 12:46 pm

i should lose about 100 pounds but i'd be tickled with 60 or 70, even 50 would be wonderful. i actually like having my curves, just not being so big.


i'm not looking for perfection here, just better health, body satisfaction and to get rid of some of my emotional baggage.

Yet another goal

I have about 4 friends who do derby, one is around 220 lbs.

once I get there I might try out!

Energy Burst Exercise for Higher Weight Loss
August 15, 2009 at 12:03 pm

I am interested to hear other folks' exeriences with HIIT (high intensity interval training).

I read about it a few weeks ago and started to integrate in to my exercise schedule. I have lost over two pounds in the past week and 3.5 in two weeks (after about six months of 35 plus weight loss). According to my home body fat scale, I also saw a decrease in fat versus muscle. In July, I was slowing down with loss because I had a week of "required no exercise" following a minor surgery on my back, then struggled to keep up with hip pain for a couple weeks.

For the last two full weeks, I've done three HIIT sessions each week. The basic HIIT strategy is to have one brief burst of intense exercise followed by a moderate and longer "recovery" exercise. I've seen different ratios from different sports. So, I am doing one minute bursts with three minute recovery exercise for twenty minutes. I am adding this on to a 60 minute aerobic/strengthening session from my dvd collection (all livingroom workouts). I do aerobic sessoins at home five times daily (four of which include strengthening).

Various specialty websites recommend only two HIIT per week. I didn't see that until after my 3xweek workouts. I'll cut down to Saturday and Wednesday only. I only have a week left of weight loss then transition over to maintenance. I've also been trying different types of exercise that increases endurance (http://www.sport-fitness-advisor.com...-training.html).

Would love to hear what other's might being doing and trade ideas.

New and with a specific problem
August 15, 2009 at 11:41 am

Hi everyone!

I'm Denise, 22 and I joined this forum because I really need to do something about my body but I don't know where to start.

Okay so I've been exercising a lot lately and I really thought I was making progress until I read the article Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin (TIME magazine) and now I feel extremely depressed. I felt like I wasted my time thinking I could actually lose my belly fat through exercise. It's all just a scam. I really wasted my time.

My problem is that I am not overweight. My weight is within the BMI but I have a very round belly that sticks out all the time. I look permanently pregnant. I can't even hide it and some guys tease me about it. My body has always been like this since I was a kid. :mad:

I know exercise has other benefits but losing my belly fat is the only thing I am aiming for. Hopefully, I can find other ways in this forum and learn from other people.

Over 80 pounds lost!!!

I am skipping and jumping for joy! I had my weigh in this morning and I have now lost 81.6 lbs! I am in the 150's now....never thought I would get here. I have just 29 more pounds to loose. Just had to share! :carrot:

Health Issues and Weight Loss Anxiety
August 15, 2009 at 10:50 am

Hello Everyone.

I went to the doctor initially for abdominal pain and my white blood count came back low last week. I just got blood drawn to test for autoimmune stuff, but have yet to be diagnosed. Yesterday I found some small painful lumps in my neck, right around the same spot I had a thyroglossal cyst in high school.

In April I cut out sugar and flour. I started 2009 at 212 and weighed in at 181.3 on Friday. This is with minimal exercise.

I also started OA at the same time, so I know my eating and thinking about food has changed in other ways too.

On one hand I am happy about the weight loss, but on the other hand it is hard for me not to panic that maybe I am not losing weight because of dietary changes, but because of illness.

Could it be that now that I am a lot smaller, my top weight was 235, I feel better and my increased everyday movement- parking further from the store, not laying around all day...is making the weight come off faster than before with less effort?

I didn't think I would freak out so much about losing weight.

Has anyone else experienced panic and anxiety about their loss?

Hi Everyone!
August 17, 2009 at 12:26 am

I just found this forum tonight, but I have been working on dropping weight for about 6 weeks now (-15 lbs so far!!!). I gained a lot of weight in the past four years, moving to and from canada (love TO), ending a long relationship, single parenting, work, school, basically life stresses. I stopped working out and started eating out, and I'm sure you can all guess how quickly the scale picked up pace! I have never been this large, or unhealthy, in my life and I am soooo depressed. I am on 4 different medications for depression, medication to sleep, etc.

I'm off work on medical right now and I am trying to use this time to turn my life around, and i believe that starts with getting back to a healthy weight. Much to my surprise (or really i should say my horror) that involves losing about 90 lbs!

I just moved back to the States so i haven't made any friends here but I am looking forward to getting to know you all :) and making friends here!

How did I get here?
August 16, 2009 at 11:46 pm

Although I don't know how I got here (to this weight), I am glad to have found this site and so many other people in the same boat as me. I don't know about any of you guys, but the evenings are hardest for me. That's when I lose the battle to temptation most often. I'm looking for a few buddies out there with this same issue -- my hope is that we can help motivate each other to stay on course and keep our bigger goals in mind when our will power is waning! I'm online a lot at night, and if you are, too, that would be ideal!

OT - How do you meet people?
August 16, 2009 at 11:29 pm

And by people I mean guys with which to have a romantic relationship with :)

So I got my tarot cards read in SF. Astrology, all that stuff, is a hobby of mine. I don't take it *too* seriously, but its fun.

This one said I need to learn how to let things happen instead of forcing them. This is a problem I have (see title of this thread, for example).

I've been on eHarmony for a long time, and its just a money suck (for me). I'm letting my membership expire, saying to myself that I'm trying to buy a house and going back to school, I need to focus on that.

However, I'm 27.5. TWO of the girls I went to highschool with got married this weekend, and the majority of them are already married. I just don't know where to meet people. I go out with my girl friends, but most people I know are attached and don't have single friends who want to date.

What do all of you do to meet people?

~*~*~*~*Weekly Chat - August 16 - 22~*~*~*~*~
August 16, 2009 at 11:25 pm

Hello Ladies! I have returned from the west coast in one piece (and possibly a few pounds heavier, I'll see tomorrow).

The trip was good - I just realized that my friend Jen and I, while I love her and she's one of my best friends in the whole world, are not compatible traveling companions. I like to see the sites (no matter how touristy they may be) and walk everywhere, where she does NOT like to do anything mildly touristy and likes to take cabs everywhere.
Example - I wanted to take a cable car. I was in San Francisco! Its what you do! And she wasn't too keen on it, but we hopped on, and then, well, it ran out of power. The dude was saying, okay you can take shuttle buses, but honestly, I could SEE our destination. She jumped out and hailed a cab and jumped right in it, and was like "well, we tried - we can just cab it everywhere, I'll pay." The money isn't the point (well, not the major one) - I wanted to ride on a cable car! Trolley cars were out after that, the line was too long and she said she didn't want to look like a tourist. She comes from money, and I do not, so I'm just going to chalk it up to different ways of growing up.

The trip was pretty nice though. I'm just hoping that I maintained or only gained 1 or 2 lbs. At first I was po'ed at myself that I didn't walk enough, but what was I going to do? Throw her out of the cab? So I'm just not giving myself a hard time about it. Its the past, and now we must move on...

How's everyone else doing? :) :)

August 16, 2009 at 10:50 pm

Yesterday was the one month mark of my husband's current deployment. Deployments are a stressful, lonely, worry-filled time for me. I have managed to cope for a full month without relying on emotional eating to get me through it. I'm a 16 year army wife and this is NOT my first rodeo, so let me tell you this is a HUGE NSV for me. If I keep this up, he won't recognize me when he comes home! :D

eating slower
August 16, 2009 at 10:47 pm

Has anyone got into the habit of eating slower? I won't say everyone, but it seems common for overweight people tend to eat their food faster, and not really chew it and taste it. I know it's calories in, calorie out but maybe if eating slowly became more of a habit binging and over eating would be less likely to happen.


I'm trying to make a more conscious effort to slow down. Anyone do this and find it makes a difference? Any tips to get used to it and get into the habit?

Plan starts tomorrow

There is a married man at my gym and he's so handsome imo. i stare at him, not to hit on him but just for my own perviness. i feel bad tho. i know i shouldn't stare, i would never start anything with him even if he approached me but man, he's handsome.

gaining weight from bing eating?
August 16, 2009 at 10:09 pm

Do you gain and retain the weight you gained from bing eating? Like does it turn into fat by just bing eating one day? or is it not turned into body fat right away? I usually like to have a cheat day 1 day a week and I just eat anything for breakfast/lunch/dinner plus snacks and I usually gain 2-3 lbs the next day but I usually can lose it back in a week.

I would appreciate any feedback/advice. Thank you very much!

Rapid weight loss
August 16, 2009 at 9:24 pm

HI,

I like the weight loss, but I am worried that it is a bit too fast.
I am doing ca. 20 gr. carbs per day, I am between 1500 and 2000 calories a day.

1. Day: 136,5lb
2. Day: 136,0lb
3. Day: 135,4lb
4. Tag: 134.4lb
5. Tag: 133,4lb

Isnt 1 lb per day too fast?

Atkins-friendly homemade cinnamon dolce ice cream
August 16, 2009 at 9:06 pm

It's been as hot as the Devil's armpit lately, and I've really been craving ice cream. Today I put on my thinking cap and here's what I came up with:

1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tsp sea salt
2 tsp Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce Sugar-Free Syrup
1 big Ziploc freezer bag
1 little Ziplock sandwich bag
crushed ice

I filled the big bag with ice+salt and the little bag with cream+syrup. I buried the little bag in the big bag, and then I shook it and shook it and shook it for about 10 minutes (which was a workout!) I unearthed the little bag to reveal: delicious, airy, pretty-darn-close-to-ice cream.

I split my yield into 2 small servings, about 3 carbs each, and had one today. The rest I'm saving for later. It's no big bowl or triple-scoop cone, but just enough to satisfy my midsummer ice cream urges.

I guess you could mix it up with other flavored sugar-free syrups, or liquid stevia. Toppings I'm not so sure about--powdered cinnamon, maybe? a light dusting of bitter baking chocolate? A little coffee in the mix? Anyway, I'm totally proud of my ingenuity today.

Anyone get sick in Phase I??
August 16, 2009 at 7:50 pm

I woke up this morning with my blood sugar around 350 and then gave a bolus to correct that. Then I had breakfast. I had 2 slics of turkey bacon and then the mock french toast and some sf syrup. A litte after eating my stomach felt kinda sick... I went back to sleep because I didn't feel to well. I had the weirdest dream I was throwing up and usually thats some kinda insight that I will throw up because somethings not right in my stomach. I woke up feeling like crap still and I finally threw up a lil while later. (Don't mean to gross anyone out but it was my breakfast) My blood sugar was still high so I changed my pump site and I have been slowly bringing it down the past couple hours. I have been keeping water down for the past couple hours and I am feeling better then before.

Has anyone else gotten sick in phase one? What did you do? I dont know if it was what I ate or my blood sugar being high or what. I wanna stick this out I have 3 more days left in phase I and I really wanna do it. Any advice?? Thanks!!

Whats wrong with me?
August 16, 2009 at 7:23 pm

Why cant I lose weight? How is it that I over eat almost every day? I hate myself right now. I cant stay imotivated longer than a week. Why is that? People say well than u dont want it enough. Which isnt true. I think it has a lot to do with my meds for anxiety. Sometimes I cant stay with things. But its all in my head.



I need to lose this weight. HELPPPPPPPPPP

Falling off the wagon
August 16, 2009 at 7:13 pm

Its happened. I started my weight loss in Oct. 08. I did great until about 2 months ago. Since then I have been slacking in my eating. Im still working out 5x per week but im letting myself fall back into my old eating habits.

So girls for those of you who have been where I am right now how did you get back on track?

I keep saying im going to... that gaining a few pounds (ive gained 4) would be my wake up but its been a few weeks since the last gain and im still allowing myself to eat things I know I shouldnt be. Im hoping to get back on track before I gain more. I for sure did not loose almost 40lbs to gain it back.. but I cant seem to stop cramming food into my face.. .mostly sweets Should I avoid them altogether until I get back on track?

When I first started my new eating and working out I allowed myself a sweet treat on Friday evenings and that was it the rest of the time it was fruit if I really wanted something sweet. Now its whatever I happen to want ice cream brownies etc.

any help?

unintentionally gained weight... ugh
August 16, 2009 at 7:07 pm

UGH!

Got on the scale today and found out I'm back at 160 lbs from a nice low of 157.8 lbs :( (*** FYI: I decided not to change my current weight info since I want to keep that as motivation to get back into the dang 150s! :)).

I had a bad shoulder injury last sunday night so I took time off from the gym (bad as in I woke up the next morning and my body screamed: you get up for anything other than going to the bathroom or eating and I will literally kill you ;)) ... I walked outside this past week and enjoyed it and still counted my calories like the calorie counting/food scale **** I am with myself.

I think I know why I gained weight:

1. I kept the calories at the same amount as if I was still going to the gym. Looking back, I should have gone back to 1,500 calories from the 1,800 calories I've been eating as of late (***or maybe even as low as 1,200 calories for maintenance... but for a 5 ft 8 inch chick, it's frustrating to figure out at this point in the weight loss journey, how much to eat to maintain if I don't workout at the gym for a week, grrrr).

It just didn't occur to me to do that with all the difficulties I've been having lately in just trying to figure out how much to eat PERIOD in order to lose weight :(

2. I thought my food scale was accurate... turns out, I finally realized this morning by not making a certain adjustment if I don't use the food scale dish that comes with the food scale, then I have added an extra 2 oz to my food!!! (*I only have been using the scale this past week to weigh some apples... I weighed them as full apples without cutting them up first and putting them in the food scale dish. DUH! *smacks head.*)

Honestly, I feel like such a moron when I realized this. I was hoping to just maintain this past week. I planned all my meals down to the last morsel in calories so I certainly was NOT planning on gaining weight this week, sigh.

I also know I've had severe PMS cramps for several days in a row and had to take midol (*which is very rare for me to have to take unless the cramps - and I hardly get them - are bad). I'm not going to use this as an excuse compared to the 2 that I listed above, but just as a side piece of info.

But my shoulder's healed up and ready to go back to the gym monday!!! A part of me doesn't want to, lol :p since I enjoyed the break in my routine with walking outside, but I need to break a hard sweat and get back into a better aerobic routine.

Ah well.... :)

My rant for the day is over, lol.

Thanks for listening!

Hey there~!
August 16, 2009 at 6:58 pm

So I was googling stuff on weight loss and such and came across 3FC. I'm happy I found an active board! :D
So, hello! I'm MiniGeekGirl. This will be my senior year in high school, and I've already lost 25 lbs since starting school last year.
My 18th birthday is in late November, and I was hoping to lose at least another 10-15 pounds by then.
I also have an anime convention in January [Ohayocon!] I'm possibly going to. I wanna get down another dress size or two by then, too! [I'm down from a 15/16 and now wear 10/11. My goal is 5/6! I wanna be there by the anime convention in May. (ACen~!)]

I just finished working out a bit ago, so I'm all endorphin-high right now and that explains the kinda hyper intro. So YAAAAAAAAAAAAY~
You'll see me a lot! Hopefully this will help me stay on track!

New here
August 16, 2009 at 5:27 pm

Hello :wave:

Another Newbie to add to the crowd! I have high hopes to stick around for awhile so that I am a "seasoned" long term member here.

A little back ground info. I went from 160 to 246 in approx 4 years. I got pregnant and had a child approx 3 years ago. I went from a work-aholic to a stay at home mom. I kinda just got into a slump one day and quit doing much. With having a new baby and the lack of sleep I stayed in jammies and became a Ben & Jerry's - aholic but I am in recovery form that. I knew I had to give it up if I ever wanted to take off weight. Anyways I have recently found that I love to walk. My child and I take nice hour long walks nearly everyday. Now and I waiting for the pounds to come off but they aren't...

So I am here looking for guidance, help, and mostly support. In exchange I will offer up any advise, and support I can. I look forward to getting to know ya'll and losing some weight with ya.

August 16, 2009 at 5:22 pm

I'm finding it hard to find the right eating plan. Since I'm not supposed to be "dieting" buy changing my lfestyle, I want totake things seriously. I have a hard time getting in veggies, but could give up bread, potatoes, and pasta, but would have a hard time giving up fruit.

Any suggestions?

Coping with being overweight
August 16, 2009 at 4:01 pm

I realize what I am doing is lame. But I have isolated away from friends and family because of my weight gain. I don't really want anyone who knows me to see what has become of me. I haven't even seen my father in 2 years because of this and have made excuses not to see old friends and former colleagues.

I have lost some weight and feel better about that....but it will be a few months before I am at a point that I am not completely depressed over.

Any thoughts?

No Wonder!!
August 16, 2009 at 3:19 pm

So, I've been tracking my calories on fitday, and I got to wondering just how many calories did I eat before??

So, I just approximated a typical work day menu: three donuts and coffee with half and half for breakfast. A chicken parm pannini with lots of chips for lunch. A huge bag of candy for a "snack" and maybe a burger and fries for dinner....

I got to 5000 calories EASY, and there were days when I ate even MORE than that!!

Also, 62% carbs!

Jeez.

Last night I had a dream that..
August 16, 2009 at 3:10 pm

..I was on this airplane that was just driving and driving - like it tried to take off into the air but it couldn't. So it just kept driving for miles and miles down the runway.

Inside this plane was a buffet style table with people sitting on both sides. They kept bringing us all this food and I just kept eating it. Eating and eating and eating.. everyone in the plane was eating a ridiculous amount! And since the plane couldn't take off and just kept driving we all just kept eating. The one thing I remember eating was pancakes with syrup.. and underneath the pancakes was a bed of spaghetti noodles drenched in syrup (uh, ew.).

So as I take the first bite of the noodles, the girl across from me is taking a bite of hers, and then she starts to look and act like she is about to throw up.. which makes me start feeling like I'm gonna do the same..

And then I woke up.

WEIIIIIRRRRDDDD.

Any of you ever had any crazy food related dreams?? Or any crazy dreams at all for that matter?

I need a belt!
August 16, 2009 at 2:58 pm

So today I wanted to take a few more progress pics in my "midway goal" jeans that I was first able to wear in June. I put them on, took the pics, and then started washing dishes and tidying up in the kitchen. But my pants were bugging me. I didn't really think about why, but now I know.

I need a belt. I need to go find a belt to wear with my midway goal jeans that I could barely wear in June. I feel stunned, like I should be happy but instead I don't even know what to think!

I'm going to try to post the pictures a little later. I told myself that I was going to start being brave and doing things out of my comfort zone, and one of those things is to let you guys see pictures. So I will try to get to that today. After I go find my belt.

Helping a friend?
August 16, 2009 at 2:43 pm

I need some advice because I am feeling like I am between a rock and a hard place here and not quite sure what to do or how I should go about doing it.

In the title I put helping a friend, even though I am talking about my sister, just because I figured maybe others have been in this same situation with a friend or a relative too and might have some advice.

My sister is about my height and 260ish lbs. She has started losing weight and is blogging about it daily and doing really well. But I am worried that she might be pushing herself too hard and not being realistic.

The first week she lost 3lbs which is good and I think ok for the first few weeks. She then set her goal to lose 4lbs the next week and did. Then I talked to her about setting her goals to be realistic and that 1-2lbs is normal and she might lose alot at first but then it will slow down. she then made her next weeks goal 3lbs. she lost 6.5lbs. and her next weeks goal is 3lbs again.

She isn't counting her calories, just watching what she eats. and I think she is not eating enough from what she blogs.

Should I just MMYB? Let her do as she please and if she comes to me for advice give it? I said my peace once and now let her choose to follow it or not. Or should I kindof push it? and/or talk to my mom and SiL who lives with her to check on her more? Should I give her positive info, like links and articles acting like I am just sharing info and not nagging lol or just lead by example and hope she comes around?

I usually think people should just do what they want but this could be bad for her health and her happiness. She is very very depressed about her weight and this is the first real step she has taken to do it besides little diets for a week ya know. and if she starts off losing alot and then hits rock bottom with little or no weight loss or starts not hitting her goal I am afraid it will be bad for her :(

We said we would support each other, keep pushing each other and stay in touch through blogging to make sure we all were on track so I think my nagging is what she signed up for with that lmao but then again no one likes to be nagged :(

also she does not have insurance and just started a new job just part time so wont have it so she wont visit a dr either.

Questions on Diet & Exercise for Jillian Michaels
August 16, 2009 at 2:24 pm

Hi Jillian,

I heard that you read this thread so I hope that you can help? I had sent to this question into KFI but then a few days later you took a break from the show. I hope someday you return, we never missed a Sunday it was great.

I will set the question up first: I have lost over 90 pounds since last September and have been exercising (cardio) everyday as of 2/28/09. I am now up to 110 minutes of cardio a day, but for the past few weeks my sweat has been smelling like ammonia about 50 minutes into my workout. I do have lunch a mix of protein, fat and good carbohydrates about 30 minutes before I workout. I have read a few of the post about ammonia smelling sweat, but that happens to athletes that start burning muscle. But the problem is I still have well over 60 pounds to lose so my body shouldn't be burning muscle but fat reserves, RIGHT?

I eat 1500 calories a day, 34 years old, 5'8 and weigh 200 lbs. I had blood tests done and my liver funtion is great.

Thank you Kate :^:

"Lifestyle Changes Without Surgery Don't Work"
August 16, 2009 at 2:19 pm

So it's Sunday morning and as always, I'm on the elliptical in Ballys. I'm watching one of the news talk shows and a bariatric surgeon is being interviewed about the obesity crisis and she makes the statement:

"Lifestyle changes without surgery don't work."

Not "usually don't work" or even "rarely work". She flat out said that permanent weight loss is impossible without surgery.

I understand that she's a bariatric surgeon so is coming at this from the perspective of dealing with failed dieters, but wow! I felt like jumping off the elliptical and screaming at the TV but -- not a good strategy. So I stayed on and thought about this for a while.

Clearly lifestyle changes can result in permanent weight loss, though even I have to admit that it doesn't very often. There are those of us here at 3FC who are living, breathing examples of lifestyle changes working, often for many years and still counting. But anyone who has spent time here at 3FC or heck, in the real world knows that most people who set out to lose weight typically don't -- and those who do lose weight most likely will put it all back on. We have 85,000+ registered members here who are looking to lose an average of 100 pounds. How many lost it and kept it off?

Does this reality mean that the medical profession is right to completely give up on non-surgical weight loss? My PCP has been practicing for more than 25 years and she tells me that I'm her only patient who has lost and kept off a substantial amount of weight. These days she routinely sends her obese patients for surgery. When I asked her why, she said that she used to spend a lot of time counseling patients about diet and exercise only to have them ignore the advice and continue to gain. Her view is that none of her patients want to do the work of weight loss. So she now sees surgery as their only realistic option.

The implication of this to me is that fewer and fewer health care dollars will be available to support non-surgical weight loss and maintenance. If the default medical position is to automatically send obese patients for surgery, no resources will be available to someone trying lifestyle changes. I've talked before about how the local medical school has a program called "Life After Weight Loss", with nutritional counseling, plastic surgery for excess skin, psychological counseling -- all services I -- as someone working to maintain a 122 pound weight loss -- would love to access. The problem is that it's only available to patients who have had weight loss surgery. Try finding a program for someone who's lost more than 100 pounds without surgery -- it doesn't exist. We really are the orphans of the medical system.

Are we really freaks, as a doctor once called me? Are we so rare and unusual that we should just be ignored? Is what we do to lose weight and keep it off so "extreme" and "obsessive" that normal people can't be expected to do it?

This country is in a tragic place regarding obesity. We live in a toxic, obesogenic environment. People are getting fatter at an exponential weight. Health costs due to obesity are spiraling out of control. And now it seems that the medical establishment has concluded that the only solution is surgical weight loss.

More than ever, I feel that we at 3FC are making a statement to the world. Yes, lifestyle changes can result in permanent weight loss. Yes, it is possible to lose huge amounts of weight and keep it off forever with diet and exercise. Yes, we losers and maintainers live happy and fulfilled lives, filled with joy and purpose. More than ever, we need to support each other and offer a helping hand to anyone who’s struggling. The motto of 3FC has always been “Because we’re all in this together” and it’s truer than ever. For too many members, there's no support from the real world but at 3FC there always will be a shoulder to lean on and a hand to pull you up when you fall.

My dream would be if every one of us succeeds in our goals. All 85,000+ of us. How incredibly cool would that be?! Let’s join together to fight the stereotypes of lifestyle changes not working. Let's turn the medical establishment upside down! Let's show the world that yes, we did it and so can you. :carrot:

Ammonia smelling sweat
August 16, 2009 at 1:56 pm

Hi,

I have lost over 90 pounds since last September and have been exercising (cardio) everyday as of 2/28/09. I am now up to 110 minutes of cardio a day, but for the past few weeks my sweat has been smelling like ammonia about 50 minutes into my workout. I do have lunch a mix of protein, fat and good carbohydrates 30 minutes before I workout, so I don't think it's that. And I have read a few of the post about ammonia smelling sweat, but that happens to athletes that start burning muscle. But the problem is I still have well over 60 pounds to lose so my body shouldn't be burning muscle but fat reserves, RIGHT? :?:

I eat 1500 calories a day, am 5'8 and weight 200 lbs.

Does anyone know the answer?

Thanks

15th of the months is photo time!
August 16, 2009 at 1:46 pm

OK, I'm starting with big apologies because I'm feeling both boastful and happy.
The past few weeks have been really hard work, just keeping the waggon in sight, never mind staying on it.
I took new pics today and I'm so proud of them, that I'm in a much more waggony frame of mind now!

All my earlier pics, I've taken either in a mirror or on timer, leaning far forward so as to give my chin as much of a chance as possible to look like a chin and not hidden in a great collar of fat. And the first 2 photos are that. The 3rd one though, oh the third one. I decided to be brave and stand normally - and I still look like I've got a chin!:carrot: for chins! (well, only one each).


08-15-200901-15-2009

The 3rd one, the unposed for chin effect one, has given me so much confidence that It's Working - that I am now firmly planted on the waggon and galloping towards the finishing tape!
Thanks to chickie-support, of course!

If you get the chance ( NickelBack Dark horse tour )
August 16, 2009 at 12:20 pm

I went to see them here in Detroit on the 12th and it was the best concert I have been to. But I have to say I really like this band so that helps out. But also the stress :woohoo: release was great, and I come to learn that I like the other bands that they had open for them, papa roach ,hinder. I went with the son and the husband so we all had a great time. I love all their music but Burn it to the ground and animal songs get me going . That's some of my work out music as well.
Whats some concerts recently that anyone went to and did you like it.
And has anyone else seen Nickel Back?

See Ya to the 130's challenge!
August 16, 2009 at 11:30 am

Hi ladies, I'm going to miss the support that I got in the 140 challenge tread, now that I'm sitting at 138.4 lbs, So I think Its a perfect time to start a thread for those in the 130's!

I'm crying and acting pathetic
August 16, 2009 at 11:12 am

I did so good this week, last week too.

In the last 2 weeks I have lost ONE LB. You can probably lose that with one good BM. which means I probably haven't lost any weight at all!

I'm so angry!

I have lost an inch off my waist and TWO INCHES off my bust, but no weight? Why not? I cut down on dairy and olive oil and upped my cals to the proper deficit. I eat about 1750 a day and exercise almost EVERY DAY.

If I"m losing inches where is the fat going if not off my body!? Did it just slide down to my hips or something? Is it relocating?!

Last night I tried to prepare myself for not losing, but I guess I didn't do a very good job as I am sitting here totally freaking out, crying and discouraged.

Feeling Really, Really Down (off topic)
August 16, 2009 at 11:06 am

My husband's been laid off since December, and his unemployment will be running out pretty soon. I'm plugging away at a stressful job that sucks the soul out of me (yeah, I know, I'm lucky to even *have* a job). I'm around people and chaos 'WAY too much, I never have any time at all to myself unless I get up at 5:00 in the morning (and then I'm half-dead by 3:30.) I sit in my car during my lunch hour (regardless of how hot it is outside) just to get some time ALONE. I'm already dreading going back to work tomorrow, which means I'm not even allowing myself to enjoy my time off. Talk about a crappy mind
