I'm sorry, but I am not okay with my back and booty creeping around to the front whenever I sit down!<br /><br />Now, as for the chocolate, have you ever tried VitaTops? They are only 100 calories and have a good amount of fiber. Some of the flavors are just "meh" but the chocolate ones are a fantastic fix for a chocolate craving. Good luck!!Candacenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23840771.post-1267708507074293702010-08-11T19:47:53.885-07:002010-08-11T19:47:53.885-07:00Before I say anything, I'm sorry about your da...Before I say anything, I'm sorry about your daddy. I just can't imagine that loss. Thank God you got a handle on your depression and are on the mend. Onward and upwards.<br />Good luck on your weight loss. I don't know about vanity pounds yet, I just have lots of those fat pounds but 25 lb gone and more to leave this year.<br />Found you from Angie's WMWW. I'm a following you, looking to your for inspiration.

I love your blog and I know everyone else that visits will, too! <br /><br />I also build muscle quickly b/c I do lift heavy weights - so eventually I'll have to ignore the scale and just go by how my clothes fit. Right now... the scale numbers are just added motivation to say no to junk. So far it's helping a lot!Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08249168087397426420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23840771.post-27217732454936341682010-08-11T09:33:19.811-07:002010-08-11T09:33:19.811-07:00P.S.

I can ...I have been trying to lose weight forever! I can never get below 136--apparently it is my natural weight right now. P90X is helping me get down some but I'm building so much muscle (and muscle weighs a lot) that I'm not seeing much scale difference. HOWEVER, I've been measuring myself for a more accurate picture and I'm losing inches (even if the scale doesn't notice).<br /><br />Good luck and solidarity, sister!Your mom https://www.blogger.com/profile/15394878007006290276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23840771.post-41227504546561297852010-08-11T09:20:39.972-07:002010-08-11T09:20:39.972-07:00First, let me say I'm so sorry for your loss. ...First, let me say I'm so sorry for your loss. <br /><br />I am currently also at 135 (give or take a pound or two, depending on time of day/month) and I would feel better closer to 130. I am also considered a "healthy" weight (and after 4 kids, things just aren't where they used to be :) but vanity says a size 6 would be nice again...<br /><br />You could check out theheirtoblair.com. She hosts a McFatty Monday which I found encouraging because a) she's suffering from post-partum depression and still putting it all out on the 'net and b) It helps me to put things in perspective when I can encourage someone who needs to be healthier by doing so myself. Does that make sense?<br /><br />Now, for the chocolate thing. I cannot give up my faves. It just ain't happenin'. But, I CAN have 1 Hershey's kiss and call it a day. Try to make sure you're eating enough protein (which can help with the hunger pangs) and that you're pushing yourself during your workouts. Mixing it up works for me. And don't be afraid to weight train. A lot of women think that using the big weights (you know, NOT the pretty pink ones) is somehow going to make them look manly. Not true. I've read research that suggests doing less reps with MORE weight actually tones muscles faster. More muscle = more calories burned = more weight lost = more chocolate you can eat!!Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420388082444716211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23840771.post-76767830778978045812010-08-11T09:10:07.181-07:002010-08-11T09:10:07.181-07:00no vanity pounds here,just regular old fat.LOL.I h...no vanity pounds here,just regular old fat.LOL.I have dropped 30 lbs,I am backsliding currently,I would say,for me,for the weight I would like to be,I have about 50 more lbs to go...I am lazy.That is my issue in a nutshell.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23840771.post-16150931942610905172010-08-11T08:50:44.550-07:002010-08-11T08:50:44.550-07:00I am definitely in that same boat. 20lbs to be ex...I am definitely in that same boat. 20lbs to be exact.
