I usually like to weigh myself in the late afternoon/early evening, when I get home from work.

I work a desk job, and not the kind where I can really get up and move/do squats/take walks throughout the day; I'm essentially tied to my desk. I feel a little uncomfortable with the idea of not…

Oh god, I tried some of the sinking shrimp pellets I have for my corydoras once (also while drinking). That was less about hunger and more idle curiosity, and I almost puked. Seafood should not be in pellet form.

My first post on these forums is going to be a truly ridiculous confession... I've managed to rid my house of pretty much everything I'd be inclined to snack on. I've been very diligent about logging my calories and working out every day. I've been so proud of myself! Last night, I was craving food - nothing specific, I…
