Watch your weight (page 2)

JH, is your pi signature a subliminal attempt to subvert our biochemistry?

LOL @ Mary

Not to worry, I started my new weight loss program the day after Thanksgiving. I'm doing the heralife diet. Two shakes a day and one regular meal. I will have my Christmas and New Years dinners though but by then I will have been on this long enough that I will guilt myself into eating less.

I decided to start my diet now, so that by Jan 1st (my goal) I will have lost enough by then to make up for any weight gain I may have when I quit smoking. I will however continue my diet so that I can get back into my size 8's I still have in my closet and can no longer fit into.

After growing my full length and my feet finally reaching the ground, 5' 8", I entered the Army weighing a whole 130 lbs. Came out of Basic Training up to 150 lbs 8 weeks later. I stayed there for many years, but a few years ago watched my weight go up to near 195 lbs. I dropped back to around 180 - 185 until the wife and I split, when I dropped even further to where I'm at now, 170lbs. I'm even fitting back into my 32 inch waist pants, but would like to get back down to around 160. I found that with the wife and her ~~brats~~ ~~monsters~~ ~~evil offspring~~ kids gone, I snacked a whole lot less and felt like working more. My guess is that the weight was a result of the ongoing stress.

At 195, I felt bloated and had no energy. Now, I feel much better, but still have no energy, LOL. Somedays, my get up go gets up and goes. But, I make up for it at work.

JH,

"So now I'm a fat person at 137 pounds."

I am your exact height at 5 ft 8 inches. I fluctuate between 130 & 135 lbs. depending on what I eat or "that time of the month" ya know, the water retention thing.

So anyway,

Are you saying Im a fat person given my height / weight?

Lilacs,

I buy the peanut butter, herbalife, protien bars. I have hypoglycemia and have to stay away from sugar, although I love it. Those are low fat, low carb, great with coffee and they keep me going until lunch.

Heaven, if you are fat, more should be fat too.

Trust me, fat you are not even close to.

I was just making a joke about being FAT at 137lbs. I feel that I am ok at that weight. You are ok at that weight also. I have small bones, and that makes a difference. Some people have large bones and that puts alot of weight. I feel great at that weight. I am lucky not to gain weight. Being the nervous type, helps. Hey I just became a master member!

Heavens no girl! I was at that weight a few years ago and was told I was TO THIN. My mon said I looked anorexic. I wore 6's and 8's. God, those were the good old days! When I went though a bad break up, I was determined that I would make sure that no man would look at me again so as not to get used again and I blew up to a size 18! I am now in a 14 but want to get back to where I was. Screw the men, I can say no if I want to. I don't have to allow them to use me. I miss my old clothes Which I still have BTW.

IMO JH was to skinny for a man. I like men with meat on there bones. You know, something to hold onto.

I never think about my weight. I think the 'cuddly look' is really nice and I don't want to be a stick insect anyway. Look at the paintings by the old masters - they painted women (super models of their day) who were nicely rounded out. They valued women with a bit of meat on them. My sister can stuff herself and never put weight on, but that is just the way she is.

Not because that I am thin means that I like thin woman. I am not that attracted to thin woman. I like woman that are a little round. Most people say that they like very thin woman. Thats all you see on TV. Not me, I like them 10 lbs over what they should be.

JH, hun, I don't think anyone is really upset with you. You're lucky that you can eat anything you like. My sister can too, and it makes me sick! I just look at food and gain weight, so even when I was thin, I had to be careful what I ate. No hard feelings?

Well, hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go. See you guys when I get back.
