I did too! Senior citizens workout videos or "limited range of motion/disability" workouts...I was embarrassed too, but as I like to say to my friends who ask why I bother working out if I'm not doing P90X or whatever: "No matter how slow you run, you'll always lap those people still on the couch." They make fun of me for…

I also confess that if you are friends with @tincanonastring and have not checked out his Easter diary then you have done yourself a disservice. It is most excellent.

I confess that I'm feeling proud of myself for not exceeding my calorie goal -and- dropping a pound on top of it today. Usually I'm quick to disparage myself and overeat if I've had a bad day, but today...GO ME! =D
-
Heh, the advice I give all my guy friends about women only wanting to be friends with them...you made a new friend! Quit your wallowing. It takes me forever to make friends. XD Most guys I find tend to message girls on online dating sites that are...to put it politely...waaay out of their league. Not to say that some…

I sobbed like an infant when I watched this. </3
-
ME TOO! UGH! Unless you are an infant if you tell me you feel "full" after 1200 calories per day in the sense that you couldn't eat another bite, I'll call you a dirty liar or you have some sort of health thing (that's different of course).

I wanna go too! =D I watch the full extended editions often enough that with the time I've spent with them I could have probably walked to Mordor already. -_-
-
My facebook is blowing up from that Indiana thing too...I mean, I live -in- Indiana, but nowhere near that city, so it's like...don't give them more publicity guys. -_-
-
Yeah, I've lost ten pounds so far and I don't see anything, but my friends say my face looks a bit thinner...so...ok? XD But yeah, when I lost about forty pounds years ago it was only noticeable to me when the pants I had been wearing successfully fell off with no pause and I had to shop for the next size down. It's an…

Confession 1: I binged last night and ate a DQ salted caramel truffle blizzard after dinner. Confession 2: I felt a cold coming on last night and it's in full swing now, but I'm secretly pleased as punch because now I won't eat much today and that should make up for the DQ last night. XD Unfortunately I have a job…

This makes me so sad. We'd be great friends in real life! I play DnD on Saturdays, the best Green Lantern is John Stewart (come at me bro!), and Iron Fist is one of my favorite people ever along with of course Luke Cage. I also agree that the crossguard thing from the new Star Wars trailer is just misplaced nerd rage. I…

http://www.buzzfeed.com/mikespohr/31-things-you-can-do-with-peeps-that-will-blow-your-kids-min This is 31 things you can do with peeps...for @tincanonastring. I just thought of you immediately. XD

Younger self: you weren't even that fat! If you'd only focused on maintenance instead of the viscous heavy diet-binge cycle you were stuck in through high school, you wouldn't have such a long journey now that you've finally figured out how to really lose weight.
-
What I liked to do when I was working and going to school full time was on my one day off per week make a huge dish (casserole, a huge pot of chili, etc.) and just reheat that all week for dinner or take containers of it for lunch. It really cuts down on your propensity to eat out from laziness/being too tired to cook/too…

Eating crushed ice makes you feel like you're eating something, but it's just water. Likewise drinking a tall glass of water usually helps me curb my appetite no matter what time of day.

Well, I may not always be successful, but I am super motivated and I am on here every day and use this thing like a social networking site. =D
-
Also, if your profile is accurate and you're 5'3 and weigh 91 pounds...PLEASE GO GET HELP and don't try to lose 18 pounds. >.>
-
If you don't think you "deserve" 1000 calories and don't eat at least that much per day you ought to adjust your eating. 1000 per day is too low for pretty much anyone. =/

Confession 1: I don't eat healthy! There I said it. I have a friend who dropped 100 pounds last year and I'm very proud of him. I assumed he was eating healthy and exercising. Nope. He confided in me that he still eats like *kitten*, but just...less of it. I was so amazed that one could do this. I had always thought to…

I confess that I hate that MFP won't let you just delete your post and only edit it...which is why when I double posted I just wanted to delete them and ended up making a mess. XD

Same here...ugh. My thighs have always forced me to buy bigger pants that I've then needed a belt for so that they stayed anywhere near my waist. People always thought that I'd lost weight before I started to just because my pants would be so huge for my waist, but no, just my huge butt and thighs require special…
-
Definitely my daily can of Coca Cola. I have one soda every day, it is the one thing I just will never give up even if I ate nothing my celery and lettuce for the rest of my life and drink nothing but water all day otherwise...that soda is my favorite part of the day. XD

Dear Krista, Welcome to MFP! Connecting with others for support can totally make you feel less alone on days that you're struggling, so I added you as a friend, feel free to add me back and talk to me whenever. =)
-
I added you as a friend so you can have a larger support network. I love this place, it's almost like my other social networking site at this point. The community here is really open and ready to help you no matter what you need. I need to lose about 150 pounds myself (started at 275 for a girl who is 5'5) so I'd…
-
Definitely agree, bare minimum to not start getting into ED territory is 1000 per day, and that's really low. I eat 1500 per day, am set to lose 2 pounds a week (and am actually doing it!), and I feel good during the day. Go off what MFP tells you is best for what you want to lose, not your friends who honestly should…
-
I also added you as a friend. I am 5'5 as well and I started at 275, so I wasn't far behind you either (and still not far along). It doesn't matter where we start, only that we're here now and we're going to do this together as a community. As far as suggestions for healthy eating, just don't go full tilt and burn yourself…

Weird ones...let's see... 1. I want to ride the roller coasters at Cedar Point again (the last time I went I was too big for Millenium Force Q.Q 2. I want to wear skinny jeans and not have it be ironic. 3. Never having to hear this pickup line again: "You're pretty good looking, you know...for a "bigger girl". 4. No more…
