Ah Diva that is not good. That is good that you are aware of it now (not eating enough). I got myself into a lot of trouble the last month or so before break. I was excercising like crazy (up to 3 hours at the gym) and only eating about 900 calories. not good...I got so sick. Ok...so now I remember you talking abut that in another thread! Tell us how it works! Sounds like you are doing great!

:p Hi!

Hi!

I'm good smelling now! lol

sorry was gone so long - chatting with the boss for a bit :twirly:

Ug how could you! Boss smoss! LOL...where do you work?

I have about 1/2 hour before class. Just cleaning up a bit in the dorm.

I work for a company in Newport News VA, in their IT Department. I am a bit of a geek, so.......but we were discussing a couple of potential opportunites for me, but I am somewhat torn between them, so now I have to do some extra research to see what would be best for me.....

I am eating the SBD Sesame Chicken wraps lunch meal......these things are GOOD!

Hello!
 

I'm looking for some good friends, motivaters and listeners! :) I'm also one of these :D

My name is Brooke, I'm 26 and right now I'm the biggest I've ever been. I made the same resolution I make every year but until today I haven't really been paying much attention. Now I truly truly want to try and lose weight.

I'm living in a new city without any friends or family (other than my hubby). The closest friend or relative is over 4 hours away!

Anyways, I just wanted to say hi!

i love this thread LOL
 

hi everyone

too much to read right now and i have to jump in the shower before visitors come. just wanted to say colaz/diva definitely not safe to eat less than 1000 calories esp if you are exercising. plus the less you eat the more your body thinks it needs to store fat and so your metabolism slows and so does weight loss. it is better to eat about 1200 calories (maybe more depending on your weight and exercise)

i am definitely on for a separate anxiety thread or some other contact...;)

Thought I would be friendly and return the "visit" from Wendy to my thread! Hope you gals are all doing great!

Diva: I used to live in VA Beach, twice in fact, when dh was in the Navy many many eons ago. I love VA Beach, though it wasn't great to live there on a sailor's salary! :lol: I have two IT geeks in my family. My dd works for International Paper doing some kind of special projects and my sil (her hubby) is a US Postal Inspector with the IT division. He is a SUPER geek! :lol:

My son is a real estate agent and my dil is a pharmacist. Rounds out my kids then I have an adorable 5 1/2 year old grandson (avatar) who is the light of my life. My gorgeous wonderful husband and I have been married almost 33 1/2 years, he is a 20 year Navy veteran and works for the city of Memphis as an electrician/electronics tech. I am a stay at homer. Used to work as a legal clerk for a big firm in Indiana, but gave it all up when we moved down here 4 years ago.

DH and I are VEGAS addicts and we try to go once a year. This year we are going to Chicago instead to go to a Chicago Cubs game and shop etc and meet my son and dil and visit with them in Indiana. I will miss my sin city, but we are planning a huge vacation for next year so I look forward to being skinny for that.

I have a long long way to go with weight loss, but I take it all with a grain of salt and don't stress over it. A word from a semi-expert with regards to losing. Cutting calories drastically will not only make you sick, it will make you FAT! Your body goes into starvation mode and your metabolism shuts down. You don't want that so find a site online to input your weight etc and find the right caloric amount for you and your body type to lose weight. Just do a google search. There are tons of them.

Anyway, enough blabbing on my part! Just wanted to peek in and say hi! You gals come on over to Time for Serious Fun and sit a spell when you can! :lol:

Faye :lol:

Hi ladies,

Welcome to all of the new faces to our group. I just joined this week myself.
