    alcohol and weighloss

    You already know what you need to do. Get into an AA meeting. Ask your family to help you. Whatever situations make you want a drink, avoid them! If you can't avoid those situations, seek counseling. Since you posted this in the 12 step forum instead of in one of the other support forums, you already know that this goes deeper than just weight loss. Seek the help you need in real life, because it is a real problem. Don't give up, your son needs you to not give up.

    I feel light headed...

    Well, if you aren't drinking enough water, that's probably what it is. You didn't really give enough information for anyone to try to help....

    You have the two mixed up. Jason is the one with dreads, and David is the rocker with squinty eyes. I love Jason's eyes, they're so pretty.

    Bodybugg users report here!

    You will have 2 coaching sessions. Your coach will tell you what you need to know. Side note: I have the display, and while I don't look at it all day long like I did in the beginning, I do still use it while I'm working out. Since it shows you how many calories you're burning per minute, I can try to push myself to work harder to get a higher calorie burn going.

    I hate it when people post just to post.....

    I don't think she's MEAN, just self-centered. And not very bright. She comes off as being educated, and intelligent to people who haven't read her posts as part of a bigger picture, but to those of us who have, she's just....I don't know what word I'm looking for.... not ignorant.... delusional? I don't know. She genuinely seems to think that she's the poster child for lap-band. But the problems she's had and the mal-nourishment issues she's had, NO bandster should ever have to deal with.

    April 2008 Exercise Challenge

    I managed an hour of walking today. A little less arm-pumping, but plenty of sweatage goin' on!

    American Idol '08

    HA! I thought I was the only one who noticed that and wanted to gouge my eyes out when he did it (the lip licking). Some people I just can't WATCH sing. David C... DAMN that guy is hard for me to look at. The hair is better, but his slitty little eyes...well he just gives me the willies to watch. Love his groove, though.

    April 2008 Exercise Challenge

    :biggrin: I've only done 10 minutes of walking today, that rash is a killer. Not sure what I'm going to do....unless I can figure out how to lift 'em up, I may have to wait until I get home and do an hour of weight training or something. Which sucks, I gotta tell ya. I had a sports bra somewhere that used to be tight, but that was about 40 pounds ago, I don't know how much it will help now.

    April 2008 Exercise Challenge

    It's raining, raining, raining here, and currently it's only 48. After today, though, it's supposed to be 58 or warmer, if I can dodge all the rain in the forecast, I might get in some bike riding....

    Personally, I think Kristi Lee Cook needs to go home just because of her piss poor attitude. I'm sick to death of her acting like a victim ever freaking week. I'm so over her.

    Smaller.....interesting. I've actually shied away from the smaller seats, thinking exactly the opposite. I might have to try that, but I have to wait until it warms up more, I'm an even bigger wus about being cold. I won't be out there riding or doing anything that keeps me outside very long until it's 55 degrees MINIMUM!!

    April 2008 Exercise Challenge

    I'm going to whine for a minute. OK, so I refuse to buy any new bras until I'm down a size, and since the girls have deflated, my bras don't give me the same support that they used to. Whilst walking yesterday, arms pumping, breathing hard, I must have been swinging them (the girls) ever so slightly, because last night I thought that I was a little tender underneath, not the girls, but where they rest... I have a friction rash under both of them! DAMMIT! So I dug out a better bra that's a little uncomfortable, but it gives me better support, so I can continue on with my workouts. I guess until it clears up, I'll have to wash this one every night... Ok, I'm done whining. I'm still on track! I absolutely love to ride my bike, but I can't go for very long. I still haven't figured out how to get my butt used to it. I've tried different seats, gel covers, pretty much everything except for tying a pillow on there. What's the secret, BG?

    All you people do is complain...

    YES, it makes you a big fat pig, and it shouldn't take you more than a week to lose 20 pounds, for pity's sake! Get with the freaking program!:huh2:

    All you people do is complain...

    The only problem I have with ANY of this is that even Satan believes in God, so that's kind of an oxymoron of sorts... Otherwise, you're RIGHT ON THE MONEY, HONEY!

    Uncrushable Pills...What do you do ?

    It's totally not a useless thread! Please don't feel bad for posting it. The thing is, if you DO find yourself having trouble with pills, talk with your doc about prescribing non-time release pills or talk with your pharmacist about what you can do, maybe they will have another solution for you. Good luck!

    All you people do is complain...

    Nope! No refills. Oh, sure, they'll refill your cup, but it'll cost ya the same as a new cup. Might as well add to the landfill, right?

    All you people do is complain...

    Lame-o burgers, GREASY sweet onion rings, dry french fries, weird tasting tater tots..... Hell, the only thing worth getting there is their drinks. I do love me a diet cherry limeade or a vanilla diet dr. pepper. Even their ice cream is crappy, consistency reminds me of ice milk. And if it ain't creamy, why bother?? LOL!

    went for a fill and came back empty

    Hate it when they dig with the frigging needle. Just pull the damn thing out and try again, dammit! Sorry to hear you had a sucky first experience. I can't remember how many times I've been in for a fill, but it was only one time that I've had to experience that.
