Yay, I found my people! I love going to conventions and things like celtic festivals. I like boardgames more so than video games because of the face to face interaction (multiplayer video games are also great). I religiously follow Dr. Who and am an alltime harry potter ravenclaw. I have made a D&D character and am looking…

I found out I'm attracted to females as well as men while I was already in a long term relationship, so I never really had the chance to explore it. I love my guy with all my heart though, so it doesn't really matter. We now gossip about threesomes sometimes whenever I see a lady I find particularly attractive.

Hey, thanks! I did make the switch to veganism by now by adding more soy products and red lentils to my diet. I'm not that fond of the taste of chicken (it was purely nutritional need), so I don't think I'll be adding meat replacements any time soon, but I guess it's always good to have some good ones ready if you need…

Corgi's are the cutest creatures ever!! (and omg that tie <3) My SO is allergic so I'm just here being masochistic.

If I really crave something I just wait it out. Eat a bit of coconut if I crave something sweet WITH coconut. If I still really want it after a couple of days I'll eat the actual thing. That has slowly helped me to a point where I don't really have 'unhealthy' (High calorie/low in nutrients) cravings anymore.

Try learning a bit more about macro's (protein, carbs and fats) Having the right balance will most likely get rid of your hunger.

Well, I wouldn't say not allowed, but if you look at the label it's 24 grams of sugar per half a liter. You might as well have some much more filling (and healthy!) real fruit instead of that. (ingredients:http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/volvic-water-touch-of-strawberry-60081189)

The photo might be bad but this was incredible. My late night snack last night (I still needed more calories). Courgette tofu rolls with spinach and thai curry and garlic spices, baked in coconut oil. +/- 140 calories

Well first of all, I'm not sure fruit juice is the best use of your calories. Also, try foods you need to chew instead of 'foods' you can basically drink. That'll help a lot already.

Same. I'm still trying to find a substitution for 50 grams of protein a day (AKA chicken right now). I'd make the switch right now if anyone could help a bit.

Yeah, sure, your body is making all the preperations for conceiving, I'm sure that doesn't cost ANY extra energy.... /sarcasm. Do you have any sources to back up that particular claim?

This could be a big one. I started having this immense hunger yesterday. Turns out during ovulation and the beginning of your period your BMR goes up about 15%. I'm not sure about the reliability of the source, but it made a lot of sense to me that it would go up at least some. 15% seems really high though.

I don't have cravings anymore, so I stopped 'cheating' and keep continuing to make my daily meals more delicious.

^ This. Also, what are your macros at the moment? I found that mfp gave me too many carbs, which made me hungry too. When I lowered that a bit and upped my protein and fats I got rid of that problem. Hope you'll be less hungry soon!

Finding out that the best food to add to my diet is actually cacao nibs made me not only smile but actually laugh out loud of happiness. I had been worrying because I missed 200-300 calories a day if you count exercise, but really liked my macro distribution (maybe a little too few fats), wanted to keep it varied and am…

This week went really well. I realized I am eating too little, so I'm trying to kick that up a notch, but I didn't have any cheat anything and did all my workouts. Height: 5'8" / 173 cm Original starting weight: 158.7 lbs Starting Weight challenge: 150 lbs Goal weight on 6/22: 142 lbs 5/22: 150 lbs 5/29: 147.9 lbs 6/5:…

They literally said "The only thing now I feel like would affect me is the fact that I would have to cut fruits out which is rather disappointing." I take that as all sugars. Not just refined and added.

Grilled pineapple! Curry or miso soup?

Eva Green when my bangs are gone and you can see my full face. I agree.

You might still be eating a lot of sugar now. Why don't you eat a little less and see how that goes? Just cut out the high sugar, few nutrients stuff for now and keep some fruit and tons of vegetables in. I'm on 17 grams of sugar a day at the moment and still include them. Sugar is not the devil here! You can check todays…

My lunch is my biggest meal during the day on 500 calories. Breakfast and dinner are both almost 300. It's 200gr chicken, 200gr mixed vegetables, 25gr feta cheese and Thai red curry spices. Super delicious!

Ha, you have exactly the same stats as I do. Always stall at the same weight (137), feel most confident at 128, 5'8"long.. Working towards this point again too. Following for tips.

It was extremely hot out today so I was really craving a cold beer to enjoy in the evening. I was already standing in the supermarket and was ready to pick when I decided I would buy spa red (sparkling water) with lemon and mint instead. Now I'm sipping that with some ice cubes and don't have a moment of regret. It's…

I think we'll manage pretty well

I'm taking a little break from ripped in 30. Doing the high intensity versions of the exercises was too harsh on my weak and untrained body (I don't know moderation when I'm put to a challenge, haha), so I'll be doing calisthenics combined with runs as preperation first. Seems like you guys are doing great!

Wow, much respect, you look fantastic!

I tried intuïtive eating for the first month of my diet. Since I eat nearly the same thing everyday it was nice to get a feel for myself of what my body told me I needed and changed it up whenever I needed to. When I logged it for the first time yesterday it was nearly precisely the amount of calories mfp tells me to eat…

I do. Apart from very small changes I eat the same everyday though (salmon/shrimp instead of chicken). But check it out if you want. Curious to see others.
