Absolutely. Both parties bring something to the relationship. If one person sucks with money and the other is good with it, its super beneficial for both for them to put forth some leadership in the financial department.

If not living together, at least go on a trip alone together. Even if you're just staying in a hotel for a week or two in your town together, you need some time being isolated together. In my experience, if you can survive vacation without a fight, you can survive anything.

No. Never. I plan my meal times accordingly and practice intermittent fasting. I fast for shorter periods than most do. My eating hours are: 9am-7pm Any time outside that area, I am not going to eat regardless how hungry I am. Accidents happen, but you are acknowledging a potential accident before it happens. You can…

Yes, that is more or less what I was trying to communicate. I have a habit of using extremes as examples for discussions like these because, for me, when I just started and didn't understand how calories worked, the phrase that got me to realize that I can still lose weight despite not being able to constantly afford fresh…

Calories are equal in the sense that 100 calories of pure lard isn't going to make you gain any more weight than 100 calories of organic vegetables would. Calories are *not* equal in the sense that 100 calories of pure lard is going to make you feel like absolute *kitten* and leave you hungry. In terms of weight loss,…

Yeah, really. Please don't weigh pre-sliced bread. It's unnecessary and borderline psychotic. Losing weight should not be obsessive or stressful. The less stressed you are about the whole thing, the more likely you are to succeed. Companies have strict protocols, so I guarantee you that 99.999999% of the time, a slice of…

Macros don't matter a whole lot if you're just trying to lose weight. They are more important for those trying to bulk or with very specific and extreme body goals with a time limit. Just keep your calories under, and I can guarantee that you will lose weight whether 100% of those calories come from fat, or 10% do.

Goal It's complicated. I have many "mini" goals, but they're not so mini. So here are the ones that matter: 1) 199 -- to get back into the 100s. 2) 150 -- where I was when I was my lightest 5 years ago. 3) 130 -- the high end of my healthy weight. After reaching 130, I may try to drop down to 120 to sit at the middle range…

Fork put-downs. Seriously, that's all it takes. You don't need to work out if you don't want (while it definitely helps and is good for you -- working out tones, eating less loses fat). Just log, log, log and take it a day at a time. 2 months ago I was a desperate pathetic mess. And now, by doing virtually nothing, I've…

I have a rule with getting haircuts that I won't let someone with a bad haircut touch my hair. I would feel the same way about an overweight dietician.

Every morning, first thing in the morning. I like to get a feel for my trend and see how various events and habits affect my weight. Seeing my weight fluctuate gives me a more solid idea of what parts of my weight are fat, and what parts are water.

Avocado on toast with balsamic is my favorite thing to eat for breakfast. I don't get to have it often, though, since the others in my house keep stealing my avocados.

If you're counting calories accurately and are at a deficit you will lose weight whether you exercise or not. Exercise helps you tone and counteract calories that you may have eaten too much of.
