HELP, I need to post that my scale at home is soooo out of wack that I took it out to the back forty and shot it ! :shoot:

I started working out on Tuesday, May 31 after work. I weighed in on the gym scale. It weighed me in at 240????? Not 221 like at home.
So of course I thought the gym scale was ...

I've been reading reports tonight that cinnamon in small amounts (a teaspoon or less a day) has in preliminary studies been shown to lower cholesterol and decrease insulin resistance, leading to better triglyceride numbers, etc. I'd post some of the links, but for Mr. Snippy, so suggest that if you are interested you try googling with the words cinnamon, insulin, lower, and cholesterol. You'll find quite a bit.

I love cinnamon, and use it, if ...

...a 42 lb. loss - woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm one more MFing loser to tell you MF works, when you work it.

Working full time and grad-school full time has kept me busy. But MF has continued to be the best thing to keep my eating under control, provide me with energy, and sharing your successes has kept me ultra-motivated. Since I've started, I've "watched" 24K and Ms. Shrinkingwoman quickly drop those lbs., the Donnas and Kristi ...

I cheated? How long would it take for me to get back on track. How many pounds would i gain. Lets say i wanted some cheese and pork rinds. I now it sounds gross, but i love it. IT hardly have any carbs. :?

Quick question.........could me chewing a value pack of sugar free gum and me not drinking water have anything to do with my hunger. Because this seems like it happened when i started chewing that gum. Could it be just the water. But me not drinking water have not had this kind of affect on me. Could it be both?
And how can i get a ticker going?

Hi, I have been going nuts getting ready for our camping trip. I haven't been able to even touch my computer for about 3 days. Man, do I have a lot of reading to do. Unfortunately, I have no time to do it.

I just wanted you to know I would not be around at all this week. I may be back on Sunday. I'll have to try and catch up then. It looks like ...

That's not good considering it has taken two weeks for it to happen. Okay i still don't drink water. Maybe a glass or two a week, but i still should have lost something. I have been eating a tad bit more chicken then i am suppose to, but i do work out more than i am suppose to also. SOoooo that make 95 pounds gone. I am going to be forever getting to the 100 ...

Today marks my official 1 week on program and I'm down 8 pounds. I've heard most people lose more than that their first week, but if I was hoping to be at the high end of the expected weight loss (5lbs a week) that means I'm already 3 lbs ahead of schedule, right!
It hasn't been nearly as hard as I'd anticipated either, what a great program.
I've set up a ticker and plan to ...

What in the world is wrong with me today????

Look at what I've eaten today.......if in fact I can remember it all.......It all started off innocent enough......morning shake......another shake before we left for church so I wouldn't get hungry.......Lean and Green at Ryan's buffet and had baked chicken and green beans and some broccoli (not even a single roll) :D Sooooooooo far so good.

Then we're ...

Hello,

Quick question here, is it suggested you get to your actual goal weight before starting the transition phase, or do do you start when you're within a 5-10 lb. range due to the weight loss that typically occurs during maintenance?

Any thoughts, ideas, or suggestions?

Thanks,
