  • Thanks for the measuring inches idea, how do I implement it properly? Like do I measure waist and hip or one or the other? Is there a way to track this here? Etc.
    in What to do if you don't own a scale? Comment by coruscation January 2017
  • Thank you. I've been to the campus nutritionist once and she basically told me to eat less subway and come back in 2 weeks lol. I suppose I can try to find the scales in the gym... I'm just embarrassed to ask. Really I'm just embarrassed to let on to anyone that I'm trying to lose weight because I tend to be very body…

  • Oatmeal (or really any breakfast food) isn't my favorite. I tend to need to eat a lot of protein for my meds to not mess me up. Might invest In making my own tuna salad, I at least know how to do that and then I can eat it straight out of the bowl. (It's a bit awkward since my roommate is a vegetarian) Thanks for all the…

  • The school did just switch food providers so I should probably revisit the dining halls. The problem is the closest one is about a quarter of a mile away and not on the route to my classes and generally fluctuates in edibility, while subway is right outside my dorm and at least has a standard.

  • Yeah, I do, I'm not really sure how to up the protein much though. I've been eating mostly tuna melts and meatball subs (a 6 inch at a time so that 1 sub is 2 meals) I forgot to mention, I also take ADHD medication that's an appetite suppressant so I'm usually not hungry and have more energy for 6 hours after I take them.…
