    I don't know how to have a healthy relationship with food :/ I restrict myself to under 1,000 for most of the week, then end up binging because I get SO hungry. I know I'm setting myself up for failure, but I'm too scared to eat more than 1,000 every day. Because of this I never actually lose weight. My weight will go down when I restrict and then right back up when I end up over eating :(

    I feel so ashamed when I give in and binge. I just hate my body & don't know how to accept it if I eat regularly

    I had probably half my daily calories in sweets today... but I wasn't hungry and I still met my macros, so heck.

    Not judging, but that is very bad for your body. Most women need at *least* 1200 calories - those who don't are very very short. I know you are worried, but if your ticker is correct and you only have a few pounds too lose, you really can eat more than you are and still have success. Instead of binging at the end of the week, just work a few extra things in every day little by little. You can do this. :)

    I'm nervous about a medical procedure I'm having tomorrow and am munching my way through the evening. I hate doing this, but it doesn't mean I'll stop right away.

    Confession: I am a terrible putter-to-bedder. The big kid gets 2 stories and some poems, cuddle time, and extra milk when I'm in charge. The little one should be fed a bottle and put down while drowsy but not sleeping, with minimal interaction so she learns how to fall asleep on her own...and I'm over here like, "*kitten* every bit of that noise." Bottle's been done for 20 minutes, she's sleeping like a log in my arms, and her fingers are still clutching my beard from when I was leaned in close to sing her lullabies. I keep telling my wife I have no idea why it's so hard to get her to sleep, but in truth, it's because I refuse to follow the protocol.

    Confession: When my boyfriend's 4 year old son stays with us one weekend per month, we all stay up til midnight together watching movies. His mom doesn't know about this. We justify it by the fact we get such little time with him & we try to make the most of it :smiley:

    Diners, Drive-In's and Dives is food porn for me. It's not always top notch cuisine but most of the food looks pretty good to me.

    One of my favorite shows. I also love Chopped.

    Sometimes a shower just takes too much effort....

    Yep. I have harder time making myself shower after working out than the working out itself.

    Peeps are disgusting. The only thing they are good for is microwave jousting!

    I love marshmallows, but I don't like Peeps.

    Only very tangentally a fitness-related question...does anyone have experience with DHS deliveries? How likely are they to be on time?

    I would love to go out dancing tonight, but I have no dresses that fit me which I have not worn too many times already. I am waiting for a packing which has a bunch of new dresses in it. It is supposed to arrive by end-of-day Pacific today. This morning it was in India. Now it is in Germany. I don't have much hope!

    Not likely to be on time. You can leave a note for the DHS guy instructing him to leave the package if you can't be there. I find that DHS is usually at least one day behind for me.

    I can see that, too. What they don't look like, to me, is appetizing! (No judgement)

    I thought chicken too. Or scorpions. Either way they didn't look like something I wanted to eat.

    Confession: I am going to be in a flash mob this weekend.

    The shocking thing is that I have somehow managed to never do this until now.

    Hope you aren't doing a zombie thing at a drive-in :)

    I can't decide whether the top items look more phallic or like dead frogs.

    Same reaction I had, but dead chickens was in the mix.

    I showed my husband peeps at the grocery store yesterday (he'd never seen them before) and he asked in a shocked voice, "They're edible?" People keep insisting that they are, but I refuse to believe them.

    I remember those days. Time flies so quickly. Don't feel bad about holding onto her a little longer.

    Understandable. Good luck and swift recovery.

    Confession: The guys from Supernatural are going to be in my state, about 6 hours away from me this weekend and I really really want to drive over to see them. Sometimes, younger girls try to make me feel weird for liking those guys, but then I have to say - hey, those guys are MY age!

    Go see them!! Jensen Ackles is seriously hot ;) although I can't see him cry now without thinking of "A Single Man Tear". I'd post some gorgeous GIFs of him to encourage you...if I wasn't a tech-idiot and knew how.

    Confession, though: I'd be more stoked if the Impala was going to be six hours away from me, and yes, I'd drive over to see it. God, I love that car. LOL.

    You sound like a good dad! This made me smile.

    I save it for work. Nothing like getting essentially paid to poo. One of my colleagues likes to calculate how much he would be paid for the time he spent dropping the kids off at the pool.

    Confession: I secretly giggle when someone walks into the stall after I just went when there is a choice of stalls to choose from....especially when it is the supervisor of another team. But I feel bad when it is the cleaning lady just trying to replace the toilet paper roll

    I'm probably the only person in the world without facebook or twitter or any of those others...well maybe not in the world, I exaggerate.

    I quit fb year ago and have no regrets... no more drama. My mom automatically assumed I had "unfriended" her.

    I really loath a few of my clients and totally understand why they can't make friends and their teachers hate them.

    What do you do?

    Wife and I moved to FL about 2 1/2 years ago and people are constantly visiting us. Someone different is here literally every 4-6 weeks. I like them as people and enjoy time spent together, but I dread it because it disrupts the flow of my diet and workout routine. They often have a hard time understanding that unlike them, I'm not on vacation and still have to live my "normal" life. I try to take a day or two off work when we have visitors but I'd run out of PTO real quick if I wasn't careful about it, and then have no time for an actual vacation of my own.

    Just reading this post made me cringe, I cannot even begin to think about how terribly annoying that would be......

    This is deliciously evil.

    I could never do such a thing because I could never buy a donut, much less a dozen--way too embarrassing.

    I have a co-worker who's a runner and used be a ballerina. When she's irritating me I buy Chicken in a Biscuit crackers (I'm not tempted) and Peanut Butter M&Ms (tempting, but if I eat them there are less for her) on the front desk. She complains as she inhales them and I don't feel one bit guilty.

    I am also Canadian and get picked on for saying "You's guys". I think it is a rural thing...maybe a Saskatchewan thing? After all, I did not know that "Bunnyhugs" were a Saskatchewan thing until this thread. Star whoosh - the more you know!

    That's weird, I was going to add to my post that most Canadians I know use the term "yous" instead of ya'll.....I am in Ontario......

    I know it's more accurate and healthier, but I refuse to buy a food scale, because I am terrified it'll backslide me into eating-disorder behavior again, but every time I pass them at the store, I stop and think about it, and wonder "would it really be that bad" if I still lose the 109 lbs I need to?

    I feel like my sisters judge the fact that I do pole fitness, and it annoys me. They have both told me that I can't buy a pole and put it in the house, but one day in the near future (once a sale comes around) I am going to put a pole up and they're just going to have to deal with it.

    I wish I had the courage to do this (I even looked into a local class) but I have a fear of falling--sit-ups on a Yoga ball scares me unless I have a stand behind it just in case I roll back too far. Good for you!
