Yes, I always say "I wish I was as 'fat' as I was when I first thought I was fat!"When I was 22, I weighed 75kg - and thought I was overweight, and was trying desperately to lose weight. 173cm.
Now I am 26, and weigh 107.
I kinda wish I could go back in time and give my younger self a whack upside the head.

-I have been doubling the amount of aero chocolate drink powder in the drink, so I can drink the powder0 -

I have a feeling my 22-year-old self was deluded by the size of my thighs, which have always been fairly big. But I found a photo of myself at that weight the other day and went "I thought I was fat?!"0 -

You can convert the file type using http://calibre-ebook.com/ to mobi so it is usable on your kindle.
Thank you, I will try that!
You're welcome and good luck!
I love my kindle so much, but it has a sort of bad side affect. I have so many new books to read that I do not really have time to read old favorites anymore.

I have no St Patty's Day plans so to do something special, I went to McDonalds and got a Shamrock Shake!
The best part is that I went straight there... from the gym! 0 -

I know what you mean. My TBR list is humongous, with no end in sight.0 -
Confession: (no judgment after all, right? >.<) I miss my body when my BMI was in the 15's. Not the mindset, which was bizarre and terrifying, but it was the only time I was really comfortable with how it felt.
Weight-unrelated confession: I should be writing an essay right now but I'm eating soup and reading Terry Pratchett. (Confession #3: I teared up a few days ago when I read about his death.)0 -

I started to go grey in college but now it's just a streak in my hair a little like Rogue. I embraced those grey hairs. The other parts of my body? Those grey hairs can go straight to hell!
Well Rogue is pretty awesome!
Agreed. I wish my greys only came in a streak. Ugh.
I finished my book yesterday... Still can't start another one. I always need some time between a book and another, to get some kind of closure I guess (which I can't... considering that there's still one book left and it's not coming out for 17 months and it makes me want to scream).
I am the same way. Especially if the book takes a drastic turn and I am left traumatized lol. One book hit me pretty hard and I tried to start another one a bit later that day and I had to put it down because I couldn't focus on it.
I currently have three series that I am now waiting for the next book to come out.
Confession: I have become violently angry at the conclusion of books in the past. It is common for me to finish a novel and immediately throw it across the room if I don't like the ending. I read the a book called "HAB Theory" about 10 years or ago and was so incensed at how the author chose to end it that I read the last sentence, shook my head in disbelief, walked outside, and torched it with lighter fluid.
That's hard core
You have no idea. I've had a love affair with the English language since I was three. I've got a degree in English Literature and wondered why we didn't read more in the classes I took. My book collection has spilled into 4 different rooms at my house and is making hostile overtures toward a 5th. In second grade, a bunch of people sponsored me for the March of Dimes readathon. Most of them pledged $1 or $2 a book, probably thinking I'd read about 10 or so. I needed two forms to submit the 135 book titles I read that month. Most people only sponsored me at $.10 to a quarter per book from then on.
I tell you all that to make this clear: I *kitten* love books. I view the written word as one of the great pinnacles of human civilization and credit mass publication with the great social improvements of the last 500 years. For me, to burn a book is an almost unthinkable act of heresy. But that *kitten* guy wrote what has to be one of the worst *kitten* endings in the history of bad *kitten* endings. *kitten* thing may as well have ended with a fadeout to show it all took place in a goddamn snowglobe. *kitten* HAB Theory.
Confession: I sometimes overreact to insignificant things.
I am currently reading "Atlas Shrugged". While I still have a long way to go, the book and characters in it, are pissing me off.
That, right there, is the one book that I would be tempted to set on fire.
I might give you a match.
I have to confess that I'm rather relieved you said that since a) you seem to know what you're talking about and b) Atlas Shrugged is currently sitting in my basement with a bookmark stuck about a quarter of the way through, and has been for about 15 years. I've never been able to bring myself to pick it up again. It was so dry and ponderous I doubt I absorbed even a tenth of what I read, my mind kept drifting away.
Ditto The Fountainhead.
I tried. I really tried.
Oh, and last night's supper was a pre-planned Limited Edition Junk Food pigout: a Wendy's Pacific Cod Sandwich and a McD's shamrock shake. I actually had pretty bad heartburn after all that. Is anybody surprised?0 -
Your life is better for never having finished those books.0

1. I used to eat a pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream every Sunday. I've managed to get it down to a single serving every Sunday (I have to buy it that way and I'm not allowed to keep ice cream in the apartment).
2. I am really lazy when I log, so if I, say, drink a cup of coffee, I will usually only log the creamer and not bother with the coffee.0 -
I feel like a failure as a parent because my 14 year old is having serious emotional issues and my daughter is already fairly overweight at 10 years old.0

Confession: I pre-logged my nighttime snack and put in 200g of strawberries with my cottage cheese instead of 100g. I had already hit submit when I realized my mistake. Rather than reopening the diary and fixing it, I just ate the snack as I had logged it. 200g of strawberries is too many strawberries.

There is no such thing as too many strawberries! You sit on a throne of lies!

Hey, don't give me a bag of *kitten*! I ate them, didn't I? I was like you once; young and foolish with a naive belief that one could shove strawberries into my facehole with wanton glee.

Tincan, who are some of your favorite authors? (Fellow English major!)0

I sneak a few fries off my coworkers plate during lunch because all I pack is high protein and veggies very limited carbs.0

Tincan, who are some of your favorite authors? (Fellow English major!)
Gah, I mean, that's a toughie. Overall? By genre? By movement?
Here's some biggies on my bookshelves:
Thomas Pynchon
Aldous Huxley
Alice Walker
Jean Toomer
Toni Morrison
John Updike
Douglas Coupland
Shel Silverstein
Amiri Baraka
Jonathan Franzen
Gertrude Stein
David Sedaris
Jonathan Krakauer
E.A. Poe
Steven King (pre-1995) - I think a lot of people overlook King. Especially for English majors and writes, I really believe there's merit in examining his character development.
William S. Burroughs
Jack Kerouac
God, there's so many more.0 -
Im a diabetic but I crave bad stuff like fries ice cream and chocolate most days. So I sneak fries0

I've gained 3 lbs this past week and I'm pissed. I've been very slack on me eating and I've been suffering from bouts of vertigo, so I haven't been working out as much. I've just been adding quick calories out of embarrassment over my poor eating habits.0

Sometimes I can eat two packs of gum throughout a movie. When it loses its flavor I get a few new pieces.0

Luckily, the classes I do (BodyCombat and BodyAttack) have VERY loud music, so I just try and hold it in until I know the music will drown it out... (luckily, it's just noise and no odour, otherwise I'd be found out)
I looooove those classes!!0
