    Can anyone think of a joking-ish reply I could use? I hate confrontation and would love if the light bulb just went off on its own for her.

    ChunkyMonkey got a reaction from moonlitestarbrite in Are nuts a weight loss aid? -- NY Times   
    Nuts are not a slider for me. I can grab about 6 pecans and it is perfect for when I'm feeling like I need a munchy. Love that I can't eat half the container like I did before!

    I had this and then I remembered my doctor said B12 deficiencie is a big deal. Even though I'm taking a supplement I was worried I was not absorbing enough. I went and got a b12 shot and felt way better after. You may want to try that.

    ChunkyMonkey reacted to Sweet Pee in I'm embarrassed...   
    When I was down to my goal weight, a woman came into the gym for the first time weighing about 290lbs. She had on a skirt, t-shirt and tennis shoes. She sat on a recliner exercise bike. She stayed on it for 15 min. She came in regularly for 8 months. Fast forward - One day I went up to her and told her how good she looked and how much weight she had lost. (That was my first time talking to her although we had seen each other many times) She started to cry. She told me she has decided that day was going to be her last time at the gym, because she felt she had made no progress. She dried up her tears and told she will continue to come to the gym. She did and continued to lose weight.
    Although I am in a skinny body now, I will alway know how it feels to be fat. Now when I see someone working hard to lose weight, I try to say something encouraging. You never know what might help.

    I'm grossed out if I try to chew food a ton. I chew it until it is broken down but I'm not going to chew 20 times it changes the taste for me.

    ChunkyMonkey got a reaction from Skinny in Here in Mederma/Scar Away Patches   
    I'm 5 weeks out and using the silicone sheets. Based on my reasearch the best thing for scar healing is protecting them from drying out so the sheets work very well. I looked up mederma vs silicone sheets and the sheets came out the winner. Guess we will see in a few months!

    ChunkyMonkey got a reaction from DangerousD in Free gas x!   
    So I really really did not want any gas pain after surgery so I went and bought a lot of gas x strips. They really do help but now I have 4 extra boxes I do not need lol. I do not mind sharing so two people can have two boxes each if you guys want. They are still closed. If your in tucson we can meet or i do not mind sending them. Hope this helps out someone!
