  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Anyone on a Diet???

LOL MW :)

I have a treadmill that I look at once in awhile and hope that just by thinking about exercising that I can drop some weight...........or not.

I have too many vices right now and just need to address them in order. Like how do I smoke a cigar without inhaling? Guess I could ask Clinton.

I have changed the way I eat. Sometimes, like for a day, I fast only if I'm not hungry, though. Then on other days I eat about half of what I was eating before. I've lost 25 pounds so far. I have more to go.

I am so blessed to have lost 45 pounds now and my body is showing its appreciation...although this is not the end of my journey...I have more to loose and I am confident.

My diet is not "a way of life" it has given me life. I am happy and satisfied. That is my miracle!

Clothing shopping has been rewarding to try on clothes three sizes smaller and be surprised whenthey fit. You can imagine how bagy the old pants were getting...well I just stopped wear most of the clothes in my closet and had to resort to my jogger pants. It was sweet to buy some new things.

Bless your dear heart Springy

For sure, you are an inspiration to others

Myself, having NEVER
been beyond 12.5 stones @ 175 lbs
and now only ten stones @140 lbs

It is HARD to see me THREATENED by what I eat

but I do consider 'other's problems' realistically

:clap:

keep it up Sis!

:hug:

I really don't eat that much. My husband said that if I eat any less than I already eat, I will be sick! My weakness is sweet tea. but I only drink that maybe 3 times a week. I exercise but not everyday. I've lost about 16 lbs. and still working on it!

Diets are hard, but the best thing to do is to find foods you like, that are healthful, like apples and the like. Excersizing every day is a very good idea. I do a mile walk every morning and pilates weekday afternoons. The most helpful resource I have used is http://www.sparkpeople.com/ :thumbsup: If you don't have time to find the right foods, they make a plan just for you and you can edit it and stuff. It's really great:D

I really think my problem is that I am not active enough. I spend a lot of time reading for my university course. Before we moved to our present house I was able to walk into town and to the shops and be quite independent, now I have to take the bus or go by car. I really need to work hard on the exercise to rediscover my waistline LOL :eek: :D
