You still have no idea what CICO is really about. You continue to believe that it's entirely separate from and opposed to a healthful diet.

I find that taking extra time to do my makeup helps. Show the world your best face, and of course you need to choose carefully which perfume to wear! That way you can take pride in treating people to a delectable visual and olfactory treat, one they wouldn't be able to enjoy otherwise. They will be grateful to you and you…

Are you sure the blouse didn't look like this? It's okay looking, but if I were to pay $700 for a blouse I would expect it to be opaque enough to not show my bra.

So I went down the rabbit hole today and I suspect she is a he.

:noway:

We could type it right now, before he's a mod.

Plot twist!

OP, just in case you really need help, here's a number to call and a link with more information. 1-800-273-8255 1-800-273-TALK Anyone can call, they won't say your problem is too small and hang up on you . http://www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org/

Thank you so much for this! I did some searching with the info from your post and I see what you are getting at. I've asked for my post here to be deleted, and I'm going to spend some time catching up on that old soap opera. Incredible.

Not to be nitpicky but do you mean Mercury/Hermes?

Have you thought of cooking with cast iron?

I would try to say something to her discreetly, so the other coworker doesn't butt in again. Start with saying, "I was thinking about our conversation the other day..." and take it from there. You could ask if she has any more questions, or if she'd like help getting set up on MFP, or have the address of a TDEE calculator…

The fiber might be helping you to feel satiated. :)

You could make money with a gift like yours!

Maybe one of these? http://www.luckyironfish.com/

Same recipe, smaller cookies. :)

Are you sure you read my posts? You quoted someone else. Take another look what I said and see if I believe CICO is the ONLY thing that matters.

You are right about the bolded, but CICO is strictly about calories. Macros and micros matter too. I think a lot of the disagreement stems from the misunderstanding that the only thing that matters is to eat less, which frankly sounds like something an anorexic person would say. CICO applies to everyone, but it shouldn't…

What @amusedmonkey said. As for the bolded, I would like to understand why you are fixated on the idea that a very vocal group of people say that only calories matter. The main advice I see given is that calories matter for weight loss, nutrition matters for health. And the plan that is most effective to reach both goals…

I agree with you about the "health concerns". Lindy's interview really made me think. I was a little bothered by Dan Savage's remarks about the people at the water park. So judgemental towards families out having fun together in a way that promotes activity. What did you think of the interview with Roxane Gay? She says…

Yes, this. I've seen a lot of claims that insulin makes you fat, but no proof of how that works in a way that disproves CICO.

This is very good advice, but it's worth noting that in another post OP said she's 5' 3" and weighs under 100 pounds already.

How much does it have? Fruits and vegetables naturally contain sodium, but not a lot. Did the salad have anything like cheese, croutons, dressing, meat, etc? Another possibility is that the database entry is wrong. Can you compare with the packaging or find current information on the Shoprite website?

She makes a bit of fun about it in her second video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-Ng1_5W-5Q

Being diabetic might have something to do with your weight loss too. Now that you are taking insulin you might want to start counting calories (if you don't already) because the insulin will help your body access the extra glucose in your blood, and if there is more glucose than what your body needs the extra will be…

Can't say I've ever heard that. Is it a thing where you live?

Where can I catch up on this epic saga?

Be on guard for more emotionally manipulative tactics! It usually takes more than one time of standing up for yourself for the message to get across, if it ever gets across at all. But stay firm! You've got this! Don't let anyone pull you down!

Way to go OP! I think it's time for you to go back to King's Island! B)
