I wear one in transit, in crowds, in stores, etc. I don't wear one in the park. The second my heart rate gets up masks, or any face covering, trigger panic attacks for me. Same reason I can't wear turtlenecks, I guess. So I stay the hell away from people. If wherever I'm walking gets too peoply, I move on. And to be clear.…

Blueberries. Fresh off the farm blueberries. I could eat my 10lb flat in one sitting, I won't, but I could.

No cheat days. I just fit that *kitten* in. Had a steak and lobster dinner on Saturday, including dessert. A lighter breakfast and lunch, plus my usu walking and voila easily in calories. I plan for when I want more indulgent meals and eat accordingly.

Mini goal is to hit 145lb which is my first goal weight. From there I need to figure out how much lower to go.

Generally, I eat when my stomach yells at me. Not eating when not hungry is important. But it's also important not for me at least to not deny my hunger to the point that I'm weak or actually have pain from it because than I am more prone to making less than ideal food choices. When I'm sick my body seems to forget about…

Thank you! I can best describe it, now that I'm paying some attention, as walking like I have every right to be there. So back straight, and chin up. It's definitely different and I have no idea when it started XD.

Thank you. I got a lot of flack for blaming her mother when I was younger. Not from my parents. My parents absolutely blamed/blame her mother and they were relieved when I didn't want anything else to do with her after that fake memorial stunt. But a lot of people would say: You can't blame her, she's the mom. She's…

She committed suicide while the bday party was underway. Long story short her mother became a JW and grounded her from everything, including school, for going to a bday party a couple of months earlier because it was now against her mom's religion. She isolated my friend for two months, blocked her from her support…

I would have liked to have snuck my bff out of her house to go to our mutual friend's bday party. Maybe if she'd been with us we wouldn't have had her funeral seven days later.

Coconut cream is very high cal. Discovered that when I accidentally bought it instead of coconut milk for curry.

I take a couple of supplements for specific macros I'm routinely deficient in. These are for my offer all nutrition, not for weight loss. There is no magic weight loss pill.

Yep. I might do a small jogging portion, but it's walking everyday. Just getting to work and working is a lot of walking and then on weekends I go out and do an 1hr and a half ish walk Sat and Sun, not a stroll but a purposeful pace. I've lost 56lb since Sept. 41lb of that just since Feb where I started logging with MFP…

A colleague commented on my stride. I'm walking differently, quicker, straighter, longer strides. Very different from a year ago. Maybe it's silly that her commenting meant anything. I'm less than 10lb to my goal and realizing I'm really not anywhere near done. My body comp clearly needs more fat loss and I was feeling,…

In size 8s and medium tops, even in unforgiving materials. Woo! Bday is in a couple of weeks and I'm 10lb to goal so that's a victory to me. I'm sure I'll benefit from going lower still but I'll cross that road later

I plan, I know what I'm eating tomorrow but I leave 200-300 calories open to whims.

Canucks. This is the one and only time I cheer for the home team

Maple walnut if I'm being a plebian but if I'm going high end then key lime pie is king.

Obnoxious, and even condescending to me. I'm an introvert with social anxiety, I want to be left to do my thing. My exercise isn't about anyone but me

My usual 1 1/4 hr walk. I preceded to fall and most like break my finger because I need to be wrapped in bubble wrap when I leave the house. No weights today, I guess. :(

140 days for me as of this morning. MFP has been an excellent tool.

Ribs with five pepper bbq sauce, caprese salad with watermelon and French bread. I am well fed and lazy at the moment. I'll have to find my get up and go to clean up since my parents are coming over tomorrow. The cats might not judge my housekeeping but my mother sure will.

I like cooking my own food. I like making my own sauces. I like having ingredients that can be used in more than one way and in more of one meal. I consider those kits a waste of money for me.

Not against my diet since I fit it in, but I had a fruit and custard tart on my weight home from work because I wanted it. Caprese salad would have had more food value but no regrets. Not a single one.

Black like my heart. But ideally flavoured. My office buddy and I share a Keurig and I'm all about frou frou coffee.

Fruit, not else on it, just fruit, any but citrus since it makes me ill. I'd rather melon or berries over cake any day. I've always been a fruit bat. At work I keep salt water taffies. Three is 60 cal so easy to fit in to the day when I need a pick me up.

Blackened cod with my own spice blend. Caprese salad, stir fried onion and mixed peppers and a slice of French bread because I'm too lazy for rice today.

Generally speaking I eat healthy. I cook meals every few days, eating leftovers when I don't want to cook or I bring them to work. I don't mind cooking. I hate cleaning, especially dishes, so I see no reason to dirty a ton of dishes every day. It's no harder to make 4 servings if something than 1.

NSV. I got my high school grad dress on. Doesn't fit well, I'm bustier than I was then, but it zipped. Better still I bought a size 8 denim skirt today to eventually shrink into. Well it fits now.

I've moved out of my old plus leggings into new one size leggings. Size large tank tops I just bought are huge on me. I'll take it.

A few people noticed when I'd lost 20lb, because my clothes hanging off me. XD. More have been noticing in the last month now that I've lost 50lb mostly because my face shrank.
