I was so so tempted to tag you but then I didn’t want to be the one to start your new year on this foot. Happy new year by the way, join you in just under 2 hours!

LOL. Perfect.

I’m to the point. The way someone reads that is on them not me. There is no intonation in the written word and something stated just factually can be interpreted by the reader 500 different ways depending on their mood, life experiences, how their day is going etc etc etc. It’s not my responsibility to mitigate that. Post…

63lbs down, bit more to go, no loose skin so far.

Oh and I've had stretch marks, pretty extensive, since I was about 13. Why? Because I was a competitive gymnast training 5 days a week until early teens. Everything, including growth, was delayed because of that. When I stopped training growth and puberty hit like a runaway train, it would have been a miracle if I came out…

There's very very few people, not just women, who have escaped stretch marks. So if we followed some arbitrary body police rule we'd all be in full body one pieces. Have a body? Then you have a beach/summer/little black dress/whatever the eff you want body.

I don't think myth means what you think it means..........

Oh god, I laughed too much. Red wine talking. I say this often round these here parts but support doesn't always mean agreeing and cheerleading. You don't tell your loved ones jumping of a cliff is a great idea just because they think it's a fabulous thing to do do you? Same should apply everywhere. Aside from that. Can we…

No, MFP is anonymous and thus likely far worse. Throw in that forums in general are brutal and you soon realise MFP is actually really really tame. That said, never sure of the point of threads like this. Nobody thinks they are the "mean people" and if they do think they are they're not likely keeping a list of people they…

I have overbought on nibbles for just lil old me today, feel free to bring that party to me. Tin foil hats supplied.

I cannot. The nots I can't. Even can't. Can't even. Evolution? Pffffftttt. ALIENS.

I'm British ;)

I can't. I can't. I don't know whether to laugh myself incontinent or despair.

Wasn't Nibiru supposed to have caused an apocalypse recently? Either way, LOL.

I am easily pleased with gifts, a genuine benefit to not getting many is that everything delights you (just about).

We have suburban sprawl and it is increasing but when we build roads we build footpaths/sidewalks. Even motorways, if going through residential streets sort of, will have overpasses that have footpaths as well as roads on them. Our town planning plans for walking as well as driving.

I walked to school in the 80s and 90s as did most of my friends. We were all very jealous of those who got picked up by a parent! And if I didn't have to be indoors I wasn't. My mum can't drive so we walked to the supermarket and back, no corner shop/convenience store so we had to walk to the same supermarket for anything…

I think this just took a weird turn with everyone imagining me as their child.........I mean, I could do with parents other than the ones foisted upon me (one of which is no longer with us and the other which is no longer with me) but..........weird. Although if you want to send presents on high days and holidays to…

19th!

The surprise baby in fiction and non-fiction families it seems.

You're all making me feel about 15. Thanks!

I don't know how this creeps up on me every year but my dear god I'm 36 in 3 weeks. You can guarantee I shall also be retaining water in 3.1 weeks.............

I pretty much never drink or have all the nibbly bits so I'm cool with doing it tomorrow. My annual tradition whilst watching and live Tweeting Jools Holland.

They'll have to wait. Wine tomorrow and nibbly bits. I also ate a lot of olives today. So all the retainy things again!

Mental guesstimate I'd say I will have maybe 1lb "true" gain. So yeah, quite watery.

Happy birthday guys! I too am a blimpy blimp. Everyone else all "all the food weight has whooshed off now" while I'm over here resembling a beach ball still. Mind you, I had a bit of an overboard day again yesterday so there will be food and bloat form that. I really do need until end of first week in January to have any…

There are many on MFP who can't train and be in a deficit at all because of runger. The other question is how much of a deficit do you have each day? Your training is demanding, you have to fuel that.

Every day is a learning day.

This is what I do too. Have done for over a year I think. More green days than not and I will lose, albeit slowly for quite a while because compliance but still losing. I never ever complete my diary. It serves no purpose to me.

Ah the corporate golden years. Several whiskies with lunch and back to the office to sexually harass the secretary for the rest of the day.
