    I get really annoyed when someone starts a tread with " help, why cant I loose weight?"
    1. Because its it's spelt lose!!
    2. They then go on to shoot down all of the advice given and defend everything they are doing to cause the lack of weight loss!

    I'm so sorry to do this to you because I completely agree with your point, but (confession) I have problems with calling out someone's spelling and grammar errors while making one of your own.

    You missed "spelt".

    Nah. Spelt is just a past tense form of spell. It's uncommon to American English, but is used interchangeably with spelled outside of the United States.
    I thought it was a grain.

    I've not hit half of my step goal today, or yesterday, because I'm busy building a 3152 piece Lego Super Star Destroyer.

    I'm really jealous. No really.

    My 6-year-old keeps telling me he is going to save up for the Death Star. He has $12 in his wallet so I see this working out really well.

    I see you used the same Google reference as I did when checking on how spelt was spelled.

    Aww, is Google ripping me off again? I confess that I didn't have to look it up because I went through a stage as a teenager where I tried to speak with a faux English accent (that sounded like a mix of Irish & Australian). Lots of past tense words outside of American English end in "t" instead of "ed." Learnt, blest, slipt...

    Better to take no steps at all, than to step on a Lego.

    I am super jealous!

    I want the Avengers Helicarrier for my birthday but my husband says no. I'm sad. He did get me the Millenium Falcon for our anniversary last year though, which took me 3 hours to build and I might have told the kids that they won't like me if they touch it.

    I did not know whether my terrible cravings for raw hot chocolate were purely down to this thread, or a sign I could be pregnant. My cravings for raw hot chocolate were so bad, I took a pregnancy test!

    It's down to this thread.

    I found oreo dairy milk chocolate yesterday and just had to try it. It was very good and I managed to fit it into my day. Win!

    I bought a package of Pepperidge Farm Sausalito cookies this weekend, thinking I could eat one a day, which fits easily into my daily calorie count. The first one was fine, on Saturday morning, with tea. Last night I proved that I cannot keep them in the house because I binged and ate four of them without even thinking. I threw the remaining three out this morning on my way to the train. Sweets make me insane!

    I wear the same stinky workout clothes for several days without washing. Ewww gross, I know. Always change my socks though lol

    I do too! But! Seriously hang them up....especially if you're a woman. Letting them air dry between workouts helps air out some "bacteria" that can form. Don't wait until a doctor has to tell you!

    Sometimes I sneak chicken nuggets of my kids' plates when they're finished. If my wife doesn't see, I don't enter it. I know, I'm only cheating myself in that situation.

    I am at my starting weight. Don't want to admit it. Don't want to change my ticker. Super pissed at myself.

    I had to buy my husband a padlocked safe for Christmas, so that he can keep his chocolate safe from my thieving hands!

    It's 3 am, I can't sleep and I'm already over my calorie limit for the day. I think I have a seriously effed up relationship with food.

    Don't we all. That's why we are all on this thread airing our dirty little food secrets. Just knowing that I'm not alone helps. :)

    All right...well, here goes nothing (?)

    Up until (very) recently (as in, I did it two weeks ago) I would take diuretics before my weekly weigh-ins. Logically I knew that whatever weight I lost by taking them was water weight and it went back on the minute I drank something, but..I did it anyway. I know it's unhealthy, though, and I have actually made myself sick at times from doing it, so I'm not going to do it anymore. I know I have an obsession with the scales and the numbers and all that *kitten*, but I need weekly weigh-ins to keep me on track, so it's not like I can totally give them up.

    Oh, and yesterday I ate four of those Reese peanut butter Easter eggs. I literally cannot stop myself from eating them and I have no restraint when they are in my vicinity.

    I confess that I seriously judge people for posing with those stupid duck faces in pictures. WHY do people think it's cute to pucker up for a camera.

    I dropped my daily calories in an effort to accelerate my weight loss. I was originally supposed to have 1650 a day and I changed it to 1550 a day. For the most part I've been sticking to it, but last night I went way over. I ate all of my calories plus my exercise calories. I didn't even log my frozen yogurt. I know that if I had logged that I would have been well over 2000 calories. :\

    I changed my goals to 'sedentary' and 'maintenance' so I could eat more. I figure if I don't log my exercise, I should still lose.
