    Confession.... I usually don't do well on desserts (read: I eat it near continuously until it's gone). But today I made a crustless peanut butter cheesecake using light cream cheese, peanut butter & light cool whip. The entire thing which is pretty small but fairly dense adds up to just under 1,500 calories. I'm pretty sure it will all be gone before my daughter comes home and it looks like I am taking an extra bike ride today. :blush:

    I need some of that! Yum!

    I used to steal food out of the refrigerator at my church during my adolescent years.

    My church had this huge jar of candy in a cupboard in the kitchen. I would sneak into the kitchen and steal that. :#

    I just walked by the local high school on my lunch break. Confession: so glad I'm years beyond high school. Question: did high school aged girls always look like hookers? The amazingly short shorts with crop tops/sport bras! Holy *kitten*-child, Batman!

    are you serious ? calling young girls *kitten* and hookers?sexualizing them ...how nice

    they can wear whatever they want just like any other girl or women

    geezus g

    She did not call them hookers, she said they dressed like hookers dress.....
    *kitten*-child, I think that sums it up well if that is what they are wearing to school.

    She did not sexualize them, I believe they are doing that themselves!

    Thinking about this last night, it occurred to me that I have NO idea how hookers dress these days as I haven't laid eyes on a real life one in years. And this is probably a good thing, lol.

    The last one I saw was wearing a rather cute little short floral dress with a flippy skirt. It looked rather demure until a breeze blew and it quickly became evident that she was wearing no underwear.

    Glad to hear your little guy (does he have a name?) is still hanging on, but sad that he won't eat and you have to worry about him all day.
    Last I saw was a male in leopard print leggings and tight lime green tank top with platform wedge shoes and dangling earrings. I love your use of the word demure. This fella was not demure.

    From what I understand, a high end "escort" can be dressed quite classy and beautiful. I suspect someone I was knew of and met a few times many years may have been involved in something along that line with the wealthy internationally. She was very beautiful and dressed very nicely.

    Perhaps (and I have no actual knowledge on this topic so I am guessing) prostitutes can dress in as many different styles as non prostitutes. Perhaps other adjectives might be more accurate.

    I grew up in a place where wearing a sweatshirt and shorts was a very typical way to dress during days that didn't get too hot. I moved to Los Angeles. I went for a run wearing a long sleeve fleece sweatshirt and running shorts. I had running shoes and a ponytail. I had a good workout but I had excessive catcalls, cars trying to pull up next to me, and twice while waiting for a light was propositioned. When I arrived back at my building my neighbor saw me and explained to me that what I was wearing was a sign of a prositute. I was amazed. I was not wearing anything revealing and was wearing "normal" running wear in my experience.

    So "hooker wear" may vary greatly by region.

    Pringles actually has a 100 calorie snack size and I use those occasionally as my snack. I'm a diabetic so I have to count carbs too on top of calories. I'm only supposed to drink water because of my kidneys but sometimes when I get a low blood sugar I get to enjoy some cran-grape juice. Yummy!

    Went to pick up my kids from a birthday party and sneaked a couple brownie bites. I did resist the cake and chips though.

    Early in the thread, some of you 'confessed' that you use Leslie Sansone 'Walk at Home' videos, but with the sound off because her positive, chirpy attitude is so grating.

    Well...I confess that I use her videos too. Love 'em. And I keep the sound on because even though it's over-the-top, her attitude helps me =P.

    I've actually started using the "sound off" tip for a lot of things now, not just her. My yoga routine is really good, but the host goes on and on about how the yoga is getting the "toxins" out of my body. I'm much less stabby when I don't listen to her.

    Not so much a confession as such but I've only found out today that steps shouldn't be counted in calorie burn unless they're above a certain number (ie. because I've put myself as sedentary it allows for around 5000, I think?). Instead of going back and deleting all the exercise entries I included for my pedometer I've just left it because I don't want to see some of my days dip into the red :( Only been using this for 5 days though so not too much of a tragedy? haha

    My Fitbit starts giving me a few extra around 3500. I'm set at sedentary as well. Only 100 or so between there and 5000 but extras are extra.

    Ah thanks! Good to know, I'll probably start counting mine after 4000 I think :)

    Phew that's willpower right there- resisting cake? Hardest thing for me to do if I'm not prepared to fit it into my cals that day!

    I have to confess that I got completely turned off New Rules of Lifting for Women when I got to the part that says YOU MUST EAT BREAKFAST. At that point the book lost all credibility for me.

    Yeah I don't get it either. Who cares about a thigh gap? I mean half the women out there don't even have the genetics for it! (I have one, but the loose skin on my inner thighs mostly hides it, and frankly I'm not even that fond of them).

    I get a kick out of reading bro-debates over that sort of thing, though the ones here are boring, because it's just an ongoing game of gotcha. It's more fun out in the brilderness, where they are adamant that if you don't eat exactly X number of eggs before 9 am, you'll lose your gains.

    Sometimes I read success stories or just people talking about weight loss and if I see someone around my height that had a starting weight higher than me I get happy because at least I don't have to start that high. Then I feel really terrible.

    Confession: I'm kind of proud that I went over last night and tonight. I've had some really low days the past few weeks, a few in the worry people might report me range.

    Please help me settle a debate.

    What is a normal number of eggs for one person to consumer in a week? Let's imagine this person eats meat, but not necessarily every day, and not big portions of it. This person happily consume plenty of wholegrains, fruit and veg, dairy (and too much sugar but never mind that).

    So normal number of eggs in a week?

    I'd ask in the normal forums, but I don't want my face ripped off by the 'eat all the protein carbs are evil' mob. (Not having a dig at you low-carbers, just at the way some people harp on about it!)

    I'm way behind and taking forever to catch up, but am going to jump in here, anyway :). I can easily eat 2 eggs every morning, say 5 days a week. Fried on toast, scrambled with veggies, or ham and cheese, wrapped in tortillas with salsa, plus boiled on salads. I love eggs. They keep me full and satisfied more than any other food for the calories. I have my own hens (chickens and ducks), so get fresh eggs from the hen house every morning.

    @AlciaMode and @AngryViking1970 you are right!! I'm just being stupid- I am 29 but don't feel it whatsoever and I'm really looking forward to my 30's I've heard from lots those are some of the best years! Thank you ladies! <3


    I looked forward to turning 30, and life has been awesome since I did. Far more self confidence and life fell into place with love, and work/life balance

    Word! I am a million times happier in my mid-forties. Looking back, my twenties were terrible. I had NO idea who I was or what I wanted.

    Oh gosh my twenties were a total disaster of bad decisions after bad decisions... Ugh.
