For me its to look presentable, awake, alive, and like you took the time out to care for yourself and not just roll out of bed. Wearing makeup going out is the same thing as why we put on propper clothing to go to work and certain occasions. You dont have to wear a suit working in an office but you should. Just like we do…

I get what your saying but what most dont understand is that because we were eating more calories before doesnt mean we were eat more food. Lets say for example a burger. When we used to eat a burger for 500-800 calories it was the same quantity as the burgers I would cook now at 200-300 calories. Also you have to take…

I dont fight it I bite it :laugh: . I use Hungry girl recepies and more than likely she has a recepie for all cravings in a low calories version. Search for what you crave and if she doesnt have a recepie for it I just eat it, try my best to estimate how many calories it is, and work it off later. Dont fight it bite it!…

Wow! You look amazing! :flowerforyou: . You should be very proud of yourself!

I think I understand what your saying. You feel weasled into eating all that bad food and she didnt even take a bite. Looking at it ffrom experience I would feel the same way. Like she was trying to sabotage my diet. I've actually had someone do this to me, that I thought was close to me. Buying a whole cake size of bread…

I eat tofu noodles. I've never tried it as a meat subsitute but I'd say avoid anything with water or liquidy recepies because tofu absorbs it and makes it very squishy and unpleasant. Also tofu is very bland so try to flavor it as much as possible. I know there are chicken flavored seasonings you can use that will boost…

Your weight is going to flucuate from day to day. You will never weigh the exact same every single day. Also you should always weigh yourself in the morning before eating or drinking anything, and naked. Different clothes weigh differently.

Pink :wink:

I used to do this because its a lot of guys on here who are just perverts and are using mfp to get laid instead of what its for. It starts to get really annoying. I actually added a few guys and one of them I had to delete over time because he was messaging me inappriate things and his whole mission was just to weasel his…

Mine did too at first and then I started losing again. Everything with time!

Sometime, now that I've thought about it, its not judging but people add others or do forums to find someone they can relate to or that they have something in common with not really to hurt anyones feelings. I add a lot of girl around my age and height because I can relate to them more.

I have it! :wink: . I dont deprive myself. If I want it I'll just work it off later if its not in my calorie goal and if it is I dont worry about it.

What!! People are mean and ignorant sometimes. I've never seen it on mfp because I have friends of all ages on my friends list but I know people have done it to me. I'm young and so a lot of older women pick or make statements saying its easy because I'm young and young people have fast metabolisms. I'm thinking to myself.…

Dont rely soley on the scale. Trust me! If its staying the same and not going up thats good. From personal experience I was stuck at a certain weight for a long time and got frustrated. Meanwhile people were telling me I look smaller. I didnt believe them because the scale wasnt moving but the next time I went shopping I…

Sadly you cant lose in one spot. I'm a bottom heavy girl so I know the feeling. :frown:

Agree! Its not the best thing for you but when you want some flavor for 0 calories why not. I drink them often

I have to disagree. I eat fast food, frozen meals, etc. and still reached goal. Double cheeseburgers, burritos, fries, everything. Not all people work the same but I've always believed in not depriving yourself of anything. As long as I keep my calories under control, spread it out with snacks in between(healthy ones, I've…

Fair enough...Thanks for the compliment

Thanks lol...

.

..............

:laugh:

Yes! Very annoying. :angry:

Thanks :flowerforyou:

Exactly! It drove me crazy how close minded she was. *sigh*

Hahaha.... Yeah I do carry my weight on the bottom half :tongue: . I have questioned where the weight is myself but it is what it is. All people are not the same

Thank you :happy:

Agreed!

I knew I wasn't crazy. I thought 5'1 115 pounds was pretty small to wear a 5 or 6 but of course if its a lot of fat than that is the reason *shrugs*
