I love my 6 Qt Instapot! I make hard boiled eggs in them in no time, and they peel more easily than traditional boiling does. Add Water, 4 Minutes, let sit 8-10 minutes, quick release steam, transfer to ice water to cool, and voila!

Hello! I also have hypothyroidism and my weight has always been an issue. I just got back on the wagon, so I'm adding you. :smiley:

I just got my second tattoo last week, and I love it. I'm thinking of my next one already!

Central NJ, here. How's things in the Boogie down?

I've been listening to some ecclectic stuff lately: Buzzcocks Queen Mumford and Sons Diiv (if you like shoegazer, totally check them out! Oshun is amazing!) Bauhaus Siouxsie and the Banshees The Big Easy soundtrack (great zydeco there) Depeche Mode (Black Celebration mostly) Florence and the Machine Dead Can Dance and the…

Welcome! Good luck on your transformation! :)

I feel like I have just met my people! I drink a lot of tea (4-5 cups daily) and I am a huge fan of Kusmi's green with jasmine and Twining's Lady Grey. I have a tea cupboard that is overflowing with good stuff!

Good luck! Cosplay is awesome so I hope you make all your goals! I'm also a nerd (a bit older, but young at heart) and love anime. Feel free to add me!

I'm not sure if grocery stores in SA have weekly circulars like they do here or not, so this may or may not be helpful. I get the specials at all the grocery stores I like to shop at and see what their loss leaders are for the week. Plan your meals around these items, and if you have freezer space you can buy extra for…

I did WW and the plateau discouraged me so much! I lost 14 lbs and it stayed that way no matter what I did! It was so frustrating so I completely understand! I'm trying this so we'll see what happens when I get to there!

I think you should be honest with your BF about wanting to go to a college party just to see what it is like. You shouldn't let him control you so you need to feel you have to hide anything from him. Go with a trusted girlfriend(s). If you have never touched alcohol, perhaps this isn't the place to experiment, just for…

I just started, but I know that if I go near a bag of chips, have nutella or a slice of cake, it's all over! I won't stop! So I'm staying away from those foods entirely until I get a handle on portion control and caloric value of different foods.

You win this thread. LOL! :smiley:

Just for the record, what exactly are you intimating by your suggestion that any of us are Meghan Trainor fans? I don't take your meaning.

People are thinking and discussing the issue of fat/thin, so that's a good thing, right? I'm just sorry that there are people who think that I am being "lazy" by doing what I want to do on my own terms. You know what? Weight loss and health is hard. For everyone. If I were a lesser person, I would cry and go eat a…

Wow, I went away to have a healthy lunch and come back to a couple of PMs that there was a "sh@tstorm" happening in my introduction thread were not lying (thank you, lovely people for the warnings! xo)! First off, thank you all for taking a moment to chime in. While I don't exactly feel welcomed, I think that this is a…

Thank you for the congratulations! I'm glad I gave you something to think about, but I am going to follow that up with a question or two: Why do I have to want to be thin in the first place? Why can't a fat girl like her body and want to be healthy without it being a contradiction? It's society's norm. I don't have to…
