This morning we're opening this thread up for a 2 hours LIVE CHAT.  Just make a "comment" post and say hello, ask a question, share some information and let's all get to know each other and share in our weight loss journeys.  

Be sure to keep refreshing your screen as that is the way you will see other members entries .. and then jump in and comment again!

Looking forward to "chatting" ...

Good luck with those 10 hour days and super-early mornings, Barb135.

I don't see the new live chat, so just waving "hello" from the bottom of this one.

[Barb135]

Sorry - I'm off to bed right now..  Have to get up again at 3 am - so MUST get my beauty rest - not that it will do much good, but at least I will have tried...........
Nite all...............

Sorry all fellow chocaholics. After numerous surveys and recent tests it has now been proven that CHOCOLATE MAKES YOUR CLOTHES SHRINK!!!!!!!

[Ranaesheart]

Send me your data via PM .. and let me look at it.  Then I'll send you some suggestions and/or ideas .. ok?  

And, let me know how much you are losing per week now .. and is it faster than you wish?  slower?  

[elaine1961]

sorry think i got that one wrong, this chart says 2181.1 to maintain
dropping to 1681.1 to lose 1lb a week without exercise or increase to 2283 for each hours exercise, its like a mine feild trying to work it all out .

[elaine1961]

[elaine1961]

[Ranaesheart]

Am doing well .. but did want to chat with you about that.  Have you calculated the calories you need to "Maintain"?   That is always the place to start.

Need height, weight, age, activity level and gender.

[elaine1961]

[Ranaesheart]

Nope .. thought I missed you .. lol

You are a PEACH!  Absolutely LOVE your "can do" attitude!!!  I did the paper thing for a long long time .. but since being on the computer more and more .. I can type faster than I can write .. and I don't have to ""share"" my computer time.

Besides .. you are no longer the "OLD" me .. you are a "NEW YOU"  .. and you're looking BeAuTiFul lady!  Keep up the great work!  You've EARNED your REWARDS!!!
