    I gained 10 pounds over the holidays but never adjusted my current weight in MFP. I've lost 5 pounds of it already but technically I should have recorded it.

    I did that! I did finally adjust after losing some of it.

    I need to know whether all those people who confessed to still having their Christmas decorations up have taken them down by now. I was just out walking in my neighbourhood and was amazed at how many lights and wreaths are still up. Am considering starting a petition!

    Well......the one xmas decoration I put up is still up. But I don't know if it counts. It's just the advent calendar sitting on the mantle. Never got to putting up the tree this year.

    Having some serous trouble staying away from the cookies. Most time I'll make them fit in my calories,..but,.. eating 50% of your calories in cookies is not the way to go.

    If I feel like I'm eating too much sugar, I'll stop using my sensitive toothpaste for awhile and just use regular toothpaste. Eating sweets hurts my teeth if I don't have the sensitive toothpaste.

    I have 450 calories left for dinner and I'm trying really hard to ignore the small voice in my head that keeps saying 'just one snack'... So I had a cup of black mocha nut coffee instead. And now I'm going to be up way too late tonight.

    I still sneak a smoke once in a awhile. UGGGG I know

    I sneak a smoke every now and again. I don't see any problem with it. I used to be a half-pack a day smoker and so long as we don't defer back to our old habits, having one every few months (i mean 5-6, if that) isn't at all bad. I have been better lately and not even having one that frequently. Planning on keeping the trend going and being completely rid of them.

    If I have even one cigarette, I'm absolutely sure I'd be back up to a pack-and-a-half a day within a month. I had my last cigarette on July 31st, 2012 and it's only been in the last month or so that I've resigned myself to the fact that I will never, ever, ever be able to smoke one again.
    Good for you!!
    I think that's why, in some ways, quitting smoking is 'easier' than losing weight - because you can be absolute about it "I will never, ever...." whereas with food, you will always have to eat. It's such a slippery slope.

    This is so true!

    I get dressed in the dark and I wore my gym shorts backwards through my entire workout this morning.
    I wore two completely different heels to work once...getting dressed in the dark is scary lol. At least they were the same height.

    LOL...too funny!

    I find this both crazy and genius.

    I have tons of great work out ideas pinned on Pinterest, but every time I go there to choose one, I get distracted and start looking at vacation ideas or cats. I still haven't done even one of them!

    Confession: I talk to my dog like she's a person. And I sing songs to her all the time. Original songs about how awesome she is...

    Dogs are people too! Mine is an a-hole, but he's still part of the family.

    Reading the forums where people post that now that they are healthy how much they love to workout and love to eat healthy and how disgusting "junk food" is...and realizing I don't feel like that although I have lost 110 pounds.

    Losing 110 pounds and not feeling successful because I still have 25 to reach goal.

    I was so proud of the great deal I got on Keebler cookies. Then I ate a whole box over the weekend, most of them Sunday. Not feeling very proud of that.

    My confession is that I can't let different foods touch each other on the plate.

    Last night I had a piece of chicken, some mashed potato, peas, and carrots. I had to very very carefully spoon the peas onto the plate so that they didn't roll away and get into the potato or go under the chicken, and if that had happened, I would have carefully picked them out. I then eat each type of food one at a time in a certain order: vegetables first (carrots first, then peas), then the potato, then the meat. Meat is always last.

    I do not know what this says about me.

    I DO THIS! Stew and beef barley soup vexes me.

    First of all, that is a HUGE success! Major congratulations to you! I'm sorry you're feeling down about it, but I sure hope that feeling passes and you enjoy your "new" self.
    Second, LOVE your avatar photo! So cute!

    Pretty sure that is the whole point of Pinterest: eternal distraction. Whomever set it up so that all the pictures are staggered so that you keep incessantly scrolling down to see what is next was a genius! Otherwise, if I'm on another site and I can control my time-wasting somewhat because it's easier to find an end-point.

    I suck my thumb since I can remember, when I'm hungry or sleepy just in my house never in public, my husband thinks it's cute but sometimes I hide to do it because I have two daughters lol Im 25

    I sucked my thumb for way way too long. I wouldn't do sleepovers at friends' homes because I was so embarrassed by it. Then I successfully replaced it with smoking (age 12). Quit smoking years ago and now I chew gum. Oral fixation much?

    Confession: several times a day I check out my profile in a mirror and flex my butt. I'm anxiously awaiting the day when the flexed and unflexed positions are roughly the same. There's still a lot of movement happening so clearly there are many, many more squats in my future.

    When I moved from CA to NYC I stayed at a youth hostel in Harlem for about a month. One night a group from the hostel mostly New Zealanders and Germans said, "Hey, let's go out to this Mexican place." I was really missing Mexican food and said sure. We got to the restaurant and it was Guatemalan. I could have cried.

    on Sunday I ordered pizza from Dominoes:
    a large pizza - 2,710 calories
    potato wedges - 424 calories
    and four cookies - 364 calories
    to make a total of 3,498 calories! A pound's worth of calories!
    The thing is that this binge would be normal for me a few years ago. As it is, I'm restricting a little more this week to make up for it.

    I don't know how many times I quit and went out to a bar or party and told myself that I would just smoke one or just that night and ended up back on my pack a day the next day! I quit Aug 18, 2013, but I'm also still using vapor. Some days at the smoke pit (at work have to go outside to use my vapor) a cigarette still smells amazing, but some days it is horrible.

    My grandmother quit 40 years ago and she says that some nights she still craves one when she has a cup of coffee in the evening...

    I sometimes wake up in a cold sweat and an overwhelming sense of dread because I've dreamt that I became a smoker again. My wife told me I once (in my sleep) sobbingly confessed that I had secretly been smoking 7 packs a day and begged her forgiveness. No recollection of that whatsoever, but I know I have dreams about smoking.
