Your cold-turkey smoking story was very inspirational! I'm glad there were 2 or so people who gave me the "just put it down" type answers. Along with the suggestions for new hobbies and alternatives, I know I can really stop doing this to myself :) Thanks a bunch!

1,200. I had some gum today, so it probably got me really close to 1,200.

Today was a big wake up call for me, I noticed I was restricting waaaay too much. Not enough fat or protein. I'm going to research inexpensive ways I can incorporate those types of food into my diet :) Thanks for some suggestions! I really appreciate it, i guess I just have way too much free time for my own good and why…

Wonderful idea! I have no hands-on hobbies and it's so easy for me just to eat while I watch animes, draw, or listen to music. I have some crocheting stuff in my attic :3

This sentence has helped me a lot today! For one instance... I was at the theatre with my sisters and they offered me buttery popcorn and bam a question came to my head. "Is eating this popcorn now more important than losing weight?" No it isn't, so I stayed chewing gum :) I know some people might find what you said "rude"…

Hm, I didn't think about that! I should try to eat beans more often :) thanks !

Same! I used to NEVER eat PB! I'm trying to get my parents to get it out, but I have 3 younger sisters and they eat it everyday at lunch. They told me I didn't need to lose weight and that its okay I eat that much PB. I'll have to try I pass a GNC on my bike route, so I'll pick it up tomorrow :)

Today I've tried upping my calories, I used to only eat 500~900 every day. ( my bulimia turned into binge eating) I swear it off due to high fat and calorie density. Today I ate 1,150 so I've felt so much better!!!

You helped me realize something! I was very tired whenever I would do this, but thanks to everybodies helpful advice tonight is the first night in ages I haven't gone all out on PB :)

I donated all of my hair and currently I have baldness, I think bald women are beautiful :) Confidence plays very strong for any type of girl though.

Thanks for the smoothie idea! That sounds yummy :) I know how you feel with cereal haha. I wish my parents would let me get rid of the PB...

There's one problem wit that, I live with my parents and they're both obese and carry tons of junk food and refuse to buy healthy foods. If I was on my own I'd be good to go, but unfortunately that has to wait another year :(

I have 20lbs left, let's do this!!!! Good luck!!! :D
