I thought the divorced wife was going to kill her ex when he announced that she had given up on the marriage. He was pretty awful, but I thought the host was pretty inappropriate when she asked them in front of everybody whether they had ever worked as hard on their marriage as they did on losing weight over the last few days.

Yeah, they're odd. I actually think the husband really did feel bad about saying that, and it seems like he's still in love with her. I don't know how good they'll be at supporting eachother with all that old baggage.
I like the brown team (married couple) and the orange team (mom & son.) I also get a kick out ot the pinks, Bette Sue & her daughter.

Monday is never a good day to start something new.
I think I'm gonna try to start Tuesday...

I'm not really on a diet per se, but I just finished a big batch of Shake 'n' Bake chicken. Not all that bad for you, but it's a lot of sodium, especially when you have a bag of Chex Mix for dessert!

Yeah, I need to cut my sodium intake. Salt = water retained. Not to mention wrecked arteries...

I just read this and found it hysterically funny, especially the comments. So does Orbits gum really cause weight loss?? Discuss.

Tuesday's dont' work for me either... maybe I'll try Wednesday?

Some of you might have effluvia in your guts or perhaps parasites of worm-like variety down there, thus preventing you from losing the weight you want to lose.

Consider having stool samples taken.

ROTFL.. I actually did have a parasite at one time, and I SOOOO couldn't believe out of all the times I had to run to the "loo" - that I didn't lose an ounce..

Yesterday was pretty good for me. I have a new gym now, I had to get out of my old ghetto-ass gym. I'm not sure the machines ever got cleaned, the broken ones were rarely fixed, and the staff was immature and rude. I never saw them working actually except for signing new members. My new gym is nicer with a better caliber of staff. Rude people are a big pet peeve so my old gym just irritated me. So this is much better. I really didn't work out much in December because there is so much to do with Christmas and all I just did not have the energy. It feels good to be back into it.

hello and good luck to everyone.

Ew. I wonder how much of that weight was water loss due to dehydration. Gross. I assume this is similar to the diarrhea people report from eating sugar-free candy?



I'm doing OK. No parasites here. Miraculously, I didn't gain any significant amount of weight over the holidays. My PT has finally allowed me to put chest presses back into my routine, so that's a good thing. Still can't do much else as far as weights go, so I try to keep my cardio up with the elliptical 4 or 5 times a week.

ROTFL.. OMG.. there went the water all over the keyboard AGAIN.. I read the "sugar-free" candy ordeal, as I was in the same boat with those other diarrhea people.. and even went to the doctor for that one.. This really has me laughing, becuase you think you are losing tons of weight, each time you hit the br, but instead, nothing happens.. The nurse was laughing with me, telling me that people think that the way to go is "sugar-free" candy, when they are dieting, but all that does is give people the run's.. Thank heavens, no more parasites here too, as that was years ago, and I pray that no-one ever will have to go through that one. YUCK.. I just need to keep on walking, and hit the gym again..lol
