Ahhh don't worry about what others think or say Toni, if you are comfortable with what you are doing to lose whatever weight you think you need to lose do it...I've found over the years that the people most vocal about you losing weight are the ones wanting to lose it an cannot do it because a/ they are not prepared to put in the hard yard of exercising or.. b/ can't/won't cut down their food habits...as long as you feel good about yourself and by the way, you do look great, try to ignore their unkind words...  |

Honestly, don't worry about what anyone else thinks! Have you ever tried a fitness trainer? It was always curious to me seeing heavy set woman finish marathons..you know they trained hard, so why are they still heavy? By working with a fitness trainer and nutritionist i found that when you work out pretty heavily, your body has to be fed in a different way. With weight watchers, are all your meals prepackaged?  |

Awww thanx Zema and Nani...((hugs)) No I haven't Kelly, I do so much now, I don't think I could fit in a PT (we call them personal trainers). Truth be known, I don't want to be told what to do by a PT..LOL...I walk for an hour roughly 3 times a week, I do a water aerobic class, I do a zumba class, then straight after that an hour and a half of rock n roll for beginners, I'm training to run 5.7km (I train twice a week for that)...phew, I'm puffed now..Weight Watchers do have their own food line, but that is only optional. It is basically good eating, moderate eating and exercise.  |

Yeah, I eat some of the prepackaged stuff too from the lean cuisine line, mostly just for convenience. For me it's hard to cook really healthy stuff that everyone else in the house is willing to eat. Last week I ran across a digital food scale in the back of a drawer and decided to weigh my food instead of just eyeballing it. Boy am I way off on portions! It was a sad me to see what a real portion of spaghetti really looks like..2 oz's is so small. Same with chicken, 3 oz's of chicken is only 3 chunks from a skewer of shish kabobs I'd made..I thought it was more like 5 or 6. |

Eh, forget about what they say. You are doing this the healthy way which has so many more long term effects than taking the easy way out.  |

I know how you feel, right now I am 135 pounds (61kg) which is actually my "ideal weight" for my height, I have never been in the ideal weight for my height, I have always been lower at 111 pounds (50kg), and I feel FAT. With my first baby, I was 22 and the pounds shed off quickly, I was wearing my pre-pregnancy clothes within it seems two months, 5 months after this baby, I can only fit into my "bloated" jeans. My uncle says that I look good with the weight on me, and that I don't look anorexic anymore. But I just don't like the way I look or feel.  |

I hear you Kelly....it's like..what? That's it? LOL...Bulk it up with vegies or salad. Even with the WW meals, I add vegies or salad..lol Awww thanks 66129, what a lovely thing to say. Very true Bruiex, very true..thanks. I've thought the same Darla..but so many people are doing it. I know it's what they need to help them on their journey, but so many then eat the same junk, just less of it. Adora, I'm hearing you. When people I know say they need to lose weight, and to me they look fine. I tell them I think they look fine, but that I understand that it's about how you feel within yourself about your weight. Just as someone who is overweight, but happy. If they are cool within themselves, that is super awesome. |

Like the others said...don't worry about what others think, especially when it's negative. Do it for you! I've maintained a 140 weight loss (no, that wasn't a typo...150!! ) for years now. I did it like you..on my own with no surgery or drugs to help. And I know how you feel. It's hard, but so worth it. The other day I had a doc's appointment and he wants me to *gain* some weight. I thought he'd lost his mind because every doctor I've ever had has been on my butt to lose lol... You'll get to where you want to be. Let the negative stuff roll off you like water off a duck's back   |
