Really though, all I was looking for were some ideas for calorie dense foods. I tried searching pinterest and it was all fancy crap that I've never heard of on toast made from fancy bread that i could never afford.

I actually tend to not eat at all when I'm emotional. I've always been prone to eating disorders (had to fulfill that anorexic cheerleader stereotype, after all), and the one habit i can't seem to shake is not eating as a form of self punishment. It's not even like a conscious thought in my mind, but i can guarantee that…

Well, in my defense, it was supposed to be two cups, but i am obsessed with this soup so i ate half of it for lunch, lol. I added a banana and mimi muffin for dessert. Only brought me up from 900 to 700, but i don't generally do a lot of night eating so it'll have to do for today!

I know it's not healthy? That's literally why I made this post, because it's not healthy and I wasn't sure what exactly those high calorie nutrient dense foods you mentioned are. I'm not going 'woo hoo, I only ate 800 calories and worked off half of those' or anything, I'm saying what i did, and tend to do, and looking for…

Well to be specific, i had french toast and garlic bread, lol. I used today mostly just as an example of a more widespread issue ive been having, which is undereating on days when i exercise. I exercise and i feel good, so i want to keep feeling good so I'm more satisfied with healthier (in comparison) foods, so I'm not…

Also i made a typo but the app has zero spell check of any kind which is super irritating so we're all just gonna have to make a group effort to ignore it.

What ever you end up doing with her, make sure she has a say in what you do. She's much more likely to enjoy and look forward to exercising with you if she's involved in the choosing of activities, and in charge of something (setting up any equipment, meal prep, even just holding the dog's leash instills a sense of…

Ah, okay then! It's alarming to have those bright red words appear when I'm logging an apple, lol!

If you're not a big meat eater, beans are a great alternative, and are super cheap. If you really feel a protein powder in neccessary, maybe put away a buck or two a paycheck until you can afford a good brand. We've done our stint with foodstamps, and i totally understand the struggle. It's hard enough to feed a family on…

I really shouldnt skim posts, lol. Please disregard!

Theres one for andrioid i love, you water a plant every time you log your water, and if you don't log then it dies. You can earn points to put tiwards different plants and pots, and its free! Its called plant nanny.

It was our first mile, so that may have contributed some. We typically do a really slow half to three quarters of a mile, and this was more fast paced (for us, lol) in addition to being longer.

I'm sorry, maybe it's because I've never been in a relationship with a man, but why are you still with him? You worked your *kitten* off and he's throwing a tantrum because what, now he's the 'less attractive' spouse? I bet money that's what it is. You're hot and he's scared you're going to leave him, so he demeans and…

Breast reduction surgery once i hit my goal weight (it'll be a necessity then. I cannot imagine poor 100lb me with these 42 h bad boys! I cry for her back.)! And then all the pretty vs bras money can buy!

Well the good thing about disney is that theres a LOT of walking. You can also bring your own food in as long as its not in glass containers and not from a restaurant (ie, no walking around with big macs). I actually lose a few pounds whenever we go to disney, between all the walking in park, and walking back to our hotel.…

For a second i thought that was ketchup and i nearly wept for that poor chicken boob.

Chop them all up and freeze them. They get a lot milder in the freezer, which might be a problem if youre a big raw onion eater, but its a bonus for us! We discovered that we can actually stand white onions if theyve been frozen before cooking! Then you have a bunch of prepared onions, and you can throw them in anything.…

Gum! I l love ice breakers, the big sharing cup lasts me like three months! The act of chewing and blowing bubbles really cuts down my desire to snack. Plus, ten calories a piece for something that lasts all day is hard to beat!

Also try light oils! Grapeseed oil is super light, and probably the only oil i like to cook chicken and pork with. You can't fry with it, but its great for sauteeing and a little goes a very long way! Im not sure how much it costs (we get ours from the local food bank every month or so) but i can't imagine it's very…

Almond butter is also a lot more expensive then peanut bytter; all non peanut nut butters are pretty pricey, in fact. I'd stick with regular old peanut butter.

I stopped eating breakfast when I was full, instead of eating it all (something i struggle a lot with, growing up poor with the obsession with not wasting food).

I love frozen brownies, fresh from the freezer! It does change the texture a bit, if they're in there for a few eeeks, but i like a fudgey brownie anyways. I like to cut them nice and small, so one batch of brownies lasts me a couple months! Quick breads also freeze very nicely, ie pumpkin bread and banana bread.

I'm not big on breakfast as a whole, but I like a nice peanut butter sandwich in the morning, maybe with some banana or honey if money's good!

Usually right around noon, later or earlier depending on how active my morning's been. Lately I've just been sticking to toast and peanut butter, just so i can make it through my 3 hour 8am class without wanting to die!

I was a healthy kid who grew into a fat adult. Wheb we couldnt afford my cheerleading anymore, was when i crossed the threshold into fat. I went from working out strenuously three days a week for hours at a time (and eating a LOT to compensate for all the lost calories) to not working out at all (and keeping the poor…

Just for today i will: Take the stairs Stick to my eating plan Say hi to one person i dont knoe

Today I learned that my college doesn't have fresh fruit (or any fruit at all!) in the cafeteria. So instead of my tasty peanut butter and banana like I'd planned for breakfast (which i was really looking forward to, and i don't dvdn like eating this early) ended up being just plain peanut butter toast. Next payday I'm…

As long as you're doing it because you believe in it and not as a short term diet (like my sister does. Every time she starts getting a little heavier she decides to go vegan, keeps it up for a month, then binges on meat once shes lost weight), more power to you. Have your facts straight, dont patronize me, dont force your…

When i was little i loved putting cinnamon in my milk. Havent done it in years, but it cuts the creamy factor which i know some people arent fans of.

Chicken and sausage dirty rice!
